Running a residential cleaning repair can be legitimately profitable.
My corporation is still small and my wonderful friend and I are trying to build our client list so my wonderful friend and I take on some jobs that others would not want. I have found a way to ensure that my wonderful friend and I have enough money to cover the costs on a monthly basis while doing this. My associate and I have partnered with a few rental properties and offer full cleaning of rental units once the occupants transfer out. This repair is gave on a flat rate fee basis but there are times when my wonderful friend and I have to tack on extra fees. When this happens the former occupant lose their security deposit because the proprietors much pay for the extra charges. One of our shoppers owns a few older homes in the neighborhood that have been divided into numerous units. They had some complications with a occupant moving out and when they called us in to scrub the locale my wonderful friend and I had to wear hazmat masks for the initial sweep through. I wouldn’t go into detail but it was one of the worst that I have seen. One area that legitimately needed cleaning was the HVAC vents. They were coated with dust and grime. The weird thing was, they were in the ceiling. I had never seen this before and had to ask how they worked. The owner said that the ductwork was in the ceiling and that the vents my wonderful friend and I saw along the bottom of the walls were simply frigid air return. The vents in the ceiling were opened and closed by a pull chain which I also found strange. My associate and I were legitimately thrilled when the repair was done but I will never forget that unit.
