It is sometimes tempting to think that a rented home doesn’t deserve some pampering. That is unfair. They need the same amount of cleaning, and they can benefit from a professional scrubbing just as much a home that is owned outright by the person living in it. In fact, there are some ways that renters need a professional cleaning more than an owned home.
Pin The Landlord Down
It’s standard for rental contracts to stipulate that the landlord won’t repay the down deposit if the property isn’t in good shape. Many renters take this to mean that they should hire a maid service to spruce the house up right before they move out. However, it is far more effective to schedule a regular professional cleaning throughout your time at the rental property. This allows them to catch small problems such as mildew before it becomes huge and costs a lot more to deal with. It also means that the home will truly sparkle when you move out, and your landlord will, with luck, be so dazzled that he or she will fork over the deposit quickly.
Increase Your Comfort
A clean home is a comfortable home, and that even applies to places you rent. In fact, it may be more true for homes that are rented. You’ll be able to relax, knowing that your landlord won’t have any complaints about the property regardless of when he or she visits. It can add an extra layer of luxury as well: just because you’re renting a place doesn’t mean it isn’t nice. A professional cleaning service that comes in once a week will make you feel super cared for in your own home.
Avoid Roommate Fights
If you share your home with other people, you know that your idea of ‘clean’ isn’t necessarily shared by everyone in the house. Every household has at least one person who thinks vacuums are an arcane form of magic and that counters are naturally sticky. That person does not have make everyone else miserable if all of you hire a cleaning service to remove the worst of the mess on a weekly basis. That way, one roommate isn’t constantly picking up after another and doesn’t have to resent the other’s attitude.
