Experienced Residential House Cleaner
If you have a year or more cleaning homes, you already know the company you work for makes the whole difference.
You have probably worked somewhere that pushed you through houses too fast, counted minutes instead of quality, or treated you like anyone could do your job. That is why most experienced cleaners leave. It is almost never the work itself.
As a family owned business BD Homes Cleaning has become the market leader in high quality, premium home cleaning in just 4 short years. Hundreds of families let us into their homes every week because we've consistently delivered on our promises of professionalism, consistency, and high standards for cleaning. That reputation wasn't built by hype, gimmicks, or advertising. It was built by a commitment to hard work and a team that continually delivers.
So we hire carefully. Every person who joins either strengthens what we have built or chips away at it. We would rather leave a spot open than fill it with the wrong person.
We are hiring full-time and part-time, and we work across Albany, Rensselaer, and Saratoga Counties, so you should be within a reasonable drive of that area.
What you will be paid
- $21 to $23 an hour, based on your residential experience
- Customer tips, currently averaging $80 to $150 a week
- The IRS standard mileage rate when you drive your own vehicle between homes
- Performance bonuses
- Overtime when it is available
- Paid training
- Year round work, not seasonal
- Room to move up as we grow
What the job actually is
You will clean homes to our standard, following systems we have already proven, so the client gets the same experience every visit.
- Detailed kitchen and bathroom cleaning
- Dusting and surface care
- Vacuuming and floor care
- Bed making and home detailing
- Communicating with the office and your teammates
- Leaving every home like it is going to be inspected
You will drive between homes during the day, so a dependable vehicle is part of the job.
What you need to be considered
- At least one year of full-time residential cleaning experience. Houses, not offices, hotels, or janitorial work.
- A reliable personal vehicle in good mechanical condition
- A valid driver's license and active auto insurance
- Legal authorization to work in the United States
- Available on weekdays within our working hours, Monday through Friday between 8:00am and 5:00pm. Full-time and part-time both work, so tell us the hours you can cover.
Who does well here
Our best people have almost nothing in common personality wise. What they share is character.
- They show up on time because other people are counting on them.
- They own their work without someone standing over them.
- They see the things most people walk past.
- They take coaching, because they want to get better.
- They talk to clients like professionals.
We do not expect perfect. We expect professional.
Who does not do well here
We are not the right company for everyone, and there is no point pretending otherwise. You will probably be unhappy here if you:
- Run late often
- Call out often
- Do the minimum and wait to be told
- Get defensive when someone gives you feedback
- Want something temporary
- Think good enough is good enough
Our standards are high because our clients pay for that, and because the people already on this team deserve to work next to people who hold the same line.
How hiring works here
We would rather both of us be sure. Here is the whole process, so nothing is a surprise:
1. Apply. If your experience lines up with what we need, we reach out.
2. A short overview video, then a quick assessment. We send you a brief video about how we operate and what we expect, plus a short assessment, so you can decide if this is what you want before you spend more time on it.
3. Phone conversation. We talk about your experience and answer your questions.
4. Interview with the management.
5. Paid Skills Evaluation. You work alongside our team so both of us can see if this is the right long-term fit.
6. Conditional offer. We send you a formal offer letter.
7. Paid training. We give you the systems and support to be good at this from day one.
One last thing...
We are not trying to get the most applications. We are trying to find one more person who makes this team stronger.
If you take pride in your work and you want that to actually matter to the company you work for, apply.
