“Smile, spray and wipe with dry sponge…smile”. Today I deep cleaned my parents bathrooms. 2 bathrooms. It took me almost 2-3 hours each bathroom. It is hard work. Literally from complete ceiling to every corner of the bathroom. Practice will only make me that much quicker. Now for some much needed rest. Thank you for all the tips and tricks.

[Jackmercardo]

Hi Angela!! You are great!! I recently started my cleaning business and I am taking notes!! Thank you for these awesome tips!

[rachelrose]

Yay, Angela’s here to help us! Thank you, thank you, you’re always soo kind and thoughtful in your videos. We are lucky to have you! You mentioned non-Teflon….I’ve been researching about non-toxic pans, you are soo knowledgeable! Have a great afternoon. Love from England ❤️☀️

[riverthehopeful]

Angela, I would really like to say thank you to you. I know it's unrelated to this particular video, but you convinced me to be honest with my current boss about wanting to start my own solo business. You helped me swallow my fear and do the honest thing, and everything worked out wonderfully. My conscience thanks you for helping me find that strength!

[FerrisFamRanch]

Oh thanks for giving us cleaners vocabulary for our prospective customers! This was awesome! I absolutely will use this in my initial interview.❤

[odezamae]

Thank you for making this video. We are actually looking for one and didn’t know where to start. I’m a bit anxious as i honestly would prefer to do house cleaning myself but lately have no time to do so and would prefer spending time with my son than cleaning.

My issue is that I am having so much trouble pre-cleaning /organizing my 1bedroom Apartment before cleaning. I have ADHD, minor Depression and I am recovering from hip and knee surgery so that too has impeded me from keeping my place clean and cleaning up before having some clean. I feel ashamed that I haven’t been able to keep my place clean. I would love to find some who knows how to help people with ADHD organization, decluttering and maintaining cleanliness.

[MichelMawon]

Thank you. I'm going to give this a go.

[svetamatvey]

Hi Angela. Do you have any video about kitchen deep cleaning? Step by step. Thanks 👍

[elizabethsavard]

Angela I appreciate your video
Can you also make one about how to pay good for house cleaners. I am sick and tired that house cleaners are underpaid while they do peoples dirty work that disgusting

[kimberlindy]

Is there a way for consumers to search SAVVY CLEANER for cleaners? It's SO hard to find a good company. Let go of the company we had for ten years because the kitchen cleaner was using our liquid hand soap to clean the kitchen instead of walking 20 feet to get her dishsoap and this was after they had to send a guy to repair cabinets and furniture due to running the vacuum into that stuff hard; the new company which is a lot more expensive used our water bottle cleaning brush I left out to dry to clean the kitchen sink drain, shakes out of floormatts inside the house, and isn't scrubbing around the sink drains very well so those brown rings are forming. I wish I could find someone half as professional as you!

[katanimals]

Thanks for your videos!? About your uniforms. I watched your video about uniforms yesterday and then just wondering if you were the same uniform and how the clothing articles are holding up to everyday use? Thanks!.

I liked the video. But I'm still confused. I lost my cleaners because of covid. I originally started following here because I'm a cook, not a cleaner. I wanted to learn. My house is still dusty and I have no idea how to find real, not overpriced cleaners. Thank God my H likes to eat and doesn't mind the shape the house is in. But I do!

[cricketinfield]

You are sponsored by cleaning companies but some of us can't afford a high cost company. I need a 'solo' cleaner who does not cost a fortune to dust, vacuum, mop. How do we select an honest one from one of the online lists? You are in Charlotte, I'm in Asheville, by the way, and many kinds of workers for hire here think they should be paid NYC prices! I lost an individual cleaner to covid fears--went back to fast food job.

I'm so sad - my mom NEEDS a housecleaner - but she is terrible at communication - and also expects them to do things exactly like she does - so she complains to ME about things ... I tell her so what they didn't move your newspaper - they dusted all else .... and she also is OLDER and wants to pay 1950 prices and thinks she is paying WELL ...

[kittycat]

I feel like I could use more vocabulary for what kind of cleaning services are out there.

[tonysterling]

Is there a price difference between cleaning a two bedroom apartment, compare to a two bedroom house etc

[TanyaEvas]

Hi Angela, I have 2 stupid questions. I want to remain professional not make mistake .. If I need to use restroom can I use the clients restroom? And if the cleaning is more than 6 hours can I leave the house to my car to take break/ lunch after 4 hours cleaning ?

[whitneytrestain]

Hi angela! I have someone coming to do a walkthrough and estimate for cleaning this week. What exactly should I ask for that proves they had proper training and are insured? Do I ask to see their certification? Just want to know what I need to see. Thank you !

Hi Angela,

How much should we pay for 1 full day (9 am to 5 pm) cleaning service in California or in a big USA city? Thanks!
