Don’t Get Swindled! Smart Tips for Hiring a Trustworthy Cleaning Service
By Anne ~ Owner, Bluffview Cleaning Service | Onalaska, WI

Hiring a home cleaning service should make life easier, not more stressful. Whether you’re a busy parent, a professional, or both, or someone who just loves a clean space, choosing the right company makes all the difference. With so many options and price points, it’s easy to feel unsure about who to trust.

As the owner of Bluffview Cleaning Service, I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. One of the biggest concerns I hear is, “There are so many ads and I don’t know who to trust.” 

A great place to start is by checking a company’s website and Google reviews. Positive feedback, and how they handle the negative, can tell you a lot. Look for patterns in reviews. Consistency in attention to detail and communication means more than one glowing rating. A company that’s proud of its work will gladly offer references.

Make sure any company you consider is fully insured. Accidents happen, and insurance protects you and the cleaners. If they can’t show proof, that’s a red flag.

Also, look for services that go beyond the basics. At Bluffview, we often help with extras like professional carpet cleaning, stain removal, or even small tasks for move out cleans, like taking down curtains or filling nail holes~because the details matter. You’ll usually see this care reflected in before-and-after photos on their site.

Watch out for impersonal service. Big companies may rotate cleaners or rush through jobs. Some may not even be based locally. Local companies mean more investment in the community and are often more responsive to client contacts and needs, including flexibility.

Price is important, but always ask what’s included. Many clients have remarked that past cleaners neglected to clean certain things, like baseboards, small spaces difficult to reach, or around the toilet base. We take a different approach: “We don’t cut corners, we clean them.”

Don’t forget to ask about the products they use. They should clean effectively, be safe for kids, pets, and surfaces and used properly- not watered down to just smell clean.

And finally, how do they communicate? Are they responsive, helpful, and open to your cleaning needs? Do they offer flexibility and try to meet your scheduling needs? A great cleaning service does more than clean…it builds trust.

At Bluffview Cleaning Service, we combine fair pricing with quality work and personal care. Whether you’re in Onalaska or nearby, we’d love the chance to earn your trust. Clean shouldn’t mean expensive, it should mean done right.

Real words from real neighbors:
"We are so glad we found you!  I could not be happier with the cleaning of my home!"
