Non-Allergic Cleaning Services

Start a cleaning service that specializes in performing cleaning services without the use of harsh, allergy triggering chemicals. You and your staff will use only cleaning products that are natural and much less likely to give your customers an allergic reaction. You can charge between $40 and $60 an hour for these services.

More and more people are developing allergies and sensitivities to common household chemicals. (Often referred to as 'Multiple Chemical Sensitivity' or 'MCS'.) Some sources estimate that between 2 and 10 percent of the population suffer some disruption of their lives due to MCS. Some of the symptoms experienced by these people can include headaches, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, earaches, itching, sneezing, sore throats, skin rashes, breathing problems, and many more unpleasant experiences. It is no wonder then that these people are searching for cleaning options that do not involve the use of harsh chemicals.

Since most working people do not have the time or energy after a long day at work to clean their homes the way they would like to, they are compelled to hire a service to get them clean. However, since they already suffer from chemical allergies, finding a cleaning service that uses cleaning products that will not trigger their allergies can be a very frustrating process, and in some cases virtually impossible. This is where you come in!

You can perform all the vacuuming that the home needs with a vacuum that uses special HEPA fi

ters to remove more allergy triggering elements from the air and surfaces of the home. These filters are becoming a standard feature on many vacuums on the market and should not be difficult to locate. The use of HEPA filters will especially appeal to your customers who suffer from additional allergies due to mold, pollen, and dust.

You will also offer people the option of cleaning some of their belongings that they use less often for an additional fee. For instance, perhaps they are preparing for a dinner party and would like their special silver candlesticks or fancy platters polished for the occasion in addition to the normal home cleaning services you will be performing. You will need to familiarize yourself with the proper care for different metal surfaces. There are some that can be easily permanently damaged by improper handling. Brass, copper, and pewter can be cleaned using a simple recipe of equal parts vinegar and salt, thickened with flour. This method is both cost effective and environmentally friendly. Chrome items can be cleaned using a towel dipped in vinegar. Just remember not to rinse it afterwards. There are also recipes available online for cleaning silver safely without harsh chemicals. (Some people even use white toothpaste.) The recipes are inexpensive and won't cause those nasty fumes that many silver polishes generate.

You can also offer to sell your customers additional cleaning products at a small profit for them to use in between the cleaning visits of your service.

Keep in mind that your natural cleaning services will also appeal to people without chemical allergies but who are very mindful of chemical effects on the environment. These people would appreciate the environmentally friendly cleaning products that you will use.

Lastly, people will need to know how to find you! You will likely want to advertise your services by running a visible ad in a local phone directory, listing your business with an online business directory, and also by printing up flyers and posting them in places where people who might throw a dinner party or own lots of items needing polishing might frequent. Be sure to include popular lunch places and coffee shops! Most post offices and grocery stores also have bulletin boards that they will allow you to place an advertisement on. Be sure to take advantage of any public bulletin boards in your immediate area to find the people who are looking for you and your services. In no time at all, you will have built up a large clientele base, many by word of mouth as they witness your professional services in action!
