Honest, Reliable, Quality Cleaning
Earth Concerns Cleaning cleans your house, condo, and apartment with eco-friendly green cleaning techniques for the health of the client, the staff, the community, and the world environment. Because cleaning is a skill, staff are trained in expectation, speed, safety, product use and technique.
The office produces a job-note for your home which is based on your preferences for your home beyond standard expectation. Some clients prefer staff to work with a priority list and a set time frame. The job-note is a guideline for staff on your home along with any special requests or details. The job-note also serves to provide cautions about your home, pet instructions, and personal preferences
