The top questions to ask, before selecting your exterior cleaning tradesperson…
If you are looking for Exterior Cleaning in Pembrokeshire, you will be looking for a qualified tradesperson to carry out the work for you.
It is true that we all want our homes to look their best and having a clean exterior to our homes is an important part of that. But exterior cleaning isn’t always the easiest task. If you don’t have the time or skills, it’s often better to request the services of someone to do it for you. Yet it can be tough to know how to hire the right person for the job.
Read on as Sam shares three questions you can ask when hiring an exterior cleaning professional.
1. Do they have the correct insurance?
This is a really important question you should ask. It’s a big red flag if the tradesperson you are looking to use does not have the correct insurance. If they are unable to commit to ensuring professional insurance is in place, will they be able to commit to carrying out a professional job?
Without the right insurance, should a tradesperson get injured in your home, you could be held liable. You won’t have cover for any damage that the tradesperson may do to your property either.
It is particularly challenging to ensure correct cover for Solar Panel cleaning – for myself, it involved changing insurers and a large policy increase. But for myself, even though I have never caused damage to a property, I felt that in being paid to work on a clients investment, having the correct insurance is the right thing for both the client and myself.
2. Are there reviews or references you can check?
One of the very best ways to work out if an exterior cleaning professional is worth your time, is by checking reviews. You can research to see what their current and previous customers have to say about the services that have been provided.
Using a trusted platform to look for reviews – such as Google will allow you to see other customer reviews. If you search for the company, you’ll be able to view the reviews they’ve received.
You can also search a tradespersons website for a section with testimonials. Personally, I am very proud of my customer reviews and feel that having them available for other clients to see is very important to help build trust and confidence in the work I carry out.
You can also check out a gallery on the tradespersons website. This will show some of the work that they have completed and can give a good indication as to if this meets up to your requirements.
In taking the time to look up the website and reviews of the professional, you will gain a lot of insight from other customers into the quality of work, and their skill and ability to obtain high quality results.
Researching in this way will offer a very good gauge as to how trustworthy a company is before you agree to accept working with them.
3. When are they able to start?
If the rest of your research and questions check out and you decide to proceed, a good question to ask is when they can start. It is good to keep in mind that a good exterior cleaning professional is often busy and booked up well in advance.
Whilst you will need to make sure that they have availability to suit your needs, if someone is able to book you in for work to be carried out the next day, this could well be a sign that they have no other work on and is possibly an indication as to the quality of the work that they offer.
