FAQ
Our clients provide their own cleaning supplies and vacuum cleaner for the following reasons;
- It is most sanitary to use your rags, duster and vacuum cleaner, eliminating cross-contamination.
- To satisfy your particular needs, cleaning supplies must be individualized. This includes ‘green’ products, particular brands, preferred smells, allergies, asthma, etc.
- To meet your specific residential requirements, including varying floors and counters. They include wood, tile, granite, limestone, marble, slate, porcelain, terracotta, terrazzo and ceramic.
- By eliminating the transportation of cleaning supplies, our maids save time and energy.
- Our cost savings are entirely passed on to you.
iMaids works with professional, independent maids.
One-time cleanings are generally more difficult to perform and require additional work (scheduling, billing, etc.).
Depending on availability and your preferences, cleanings typically begin within 2 to 3 business days.
There is usually more dust, dirt and grime to clean, so it takes longer. Your maid must also learn your residence and personal needs.

iMaids obtains comprehensive background checks from Checkr, as well as identity verification using Jumio.

Many maid services charge by the job, allowing them to hastily clean your home. Simply put, the faster they clean, the more money they earn (per hour). We believe charging hourly is most equitable, transparent and flexible.
Teams are generally good for one reason; if you want your maid(s) to get in and out as fast as possible. iMaids is all about personal, trusting relationships with one maid. We never rotate or work with teams (unless you choose to).
