Four tips for hiring a Maid / Cleaning Service:

1- Always hire a service that is fully licensed, bonded, and insured and is able to provide you with a current certificate of insurance.  An individual may be able to clean your home slightly cheaper then a professional company, but will he or she be able to replace the $5000 vase they broke cleaning your home?
2- Ask for references.  Ask the cleaning service for references for the particular cleaner they plan to send to your home.  Any reputable service will be able to do this as no one wants an inexperienced or poorly trained cleaner to clean their home.
3- Read Reviews.  Read Reviews of what others have said who have had their home or office cleaned by the company.  A great place to do this is google places (http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=10190679028105888571&hl=en is our review page) or yellow pages.com.  There may always be a bad review written by a disgruntled former employee or the like mixed in, but an established company will have multiple reviews over time that allow you to establish an overall picture of the company.
4- Old-fashioned references.  If a client likes your cleaning service enough to refer you to their friend, there is no better testament to the company!
