A fabulous gift!
Where to start?! |
Ask a
lot of mums and one of the best gifts they could ask for it a clean house! So
why not give this? I was incredibly lucky to get the opportunity to view
Cleaning Gift Voucher thanks to Fuel my blog who do exactly this!
They
offer a huge selection of vouchers you can purchase for the lucky individual
from a 3 hour cleaning package at £39 to a pick and mix package (cleaning, oven,
carpets etc) at £144. You select a gift amount and then it’s up to the individual
to choose exactly what they’d like most! Being a new(ish) mum it’s safe to say
I went for the 3 hours cleaning! Originally supposed to be 1 person for three
hours my cleaner got stuck in traffic and was running late so instead they sent
two cleaners for an hour a half.
It was
fairly straight forward to process once I had the voucher number although I did
get confused once but in the corner of the site there’s a lovely chat online
option where someone can talk you step by step through. I did this find it a
bit more useful than using the phone as I found it a little bit difficult to
follow the person on the other end due to their accent and the line kept
fading. I also got a bit confused as I had about four confirmation emails and
three texts asking me to call to confirm when I believed I already had.
As to
the cleaning when the people arrived they were very lovely and asked what I’d like
them to do first. I opted as there was two of them to go for the bathrooms (one
ensuite, family bathroom and cloakroom) and kitchen. I have to say I was
slightly disappointed in the second cleaner ( the one who got the bathrooms) as
he seemed to take a good while (over an hour) to clean the ensuite (shower
toilet and sink) and broke the toilet brush and didn’t tell me so the family
bathroom was only given a quick wipe round and the cloakroom none. However
saying that he did do a good job as we have bad lime scale and that had
vanished…but!
As to
the kitchen that was great where they managed to clean this had been thoroughly
done and I was very impressed with this although I did notice that she had used
a scouring brush on my shiny chrome oven hood before she obviously realised. I
think I would have preferred one cleaner in the end as I felt they were in an
incredible rush.
House done, dog next!! |
They had to come back three time for things they had forgotten!
Despite this I think its an excellent gift. If I’d just had a baby,
moved into somewhere new or even as a student I think this would be amazing!
To have
someone clean up or clean the carpets or ovens which are the last jobs you ever
find time was great! Its spurred me on to make more of an effort and to keep on
top of it!
