introducing homehello: a review

This morning I was treated to a complimentary 3-hour home clean from a local company, homehello. I love dealing with brands who are easy to work with - and the process for booking a home clean couldn't be simpler.

When booking, you simply figure out what size your house is, and you'll be given a good idea of how many hours you'll require for a thorough clean. Add on any extras {window cleaning, etc} and your personal details and that's it; it's booked!

Our cleaner turned up spot on time with his own cleaning gear, and after a brief tour of the rooms we were wanting him to focus on, he got busy! Since we had a 3-hour window, I decided to stick to the kitchen and bathrooms, since they're the places in our home that tend to get the dirtiest, the quickest. If time permitted, we'd do a general vaccuum of the floorboards.

Unfortunately, we ended up with only two rooms done - kitchen & our ensuite bathroom. The cleaner was amazingly thorough, cleaning all appliances & surfaces.. and he really had his work cut out for him in our dusty bathroom - it looked amazing when he was done. But with all that effort, the 3-hours flew by, and we weren't able to get our other bathrooms done, or the floors started. I was really happy with the rooms that did get done, but I still have a lot more to finish up myself! :)

Here's some after shots of our sparkling kitchen:

And our master bathroom:

Loved: The website itself, very modern & simple. The professional cleaner. The beautifully cleaned rooms. Being able to relax while someone else helped me target the problem areas in my home.
Wished for: More time!!! Next time I'll definitely have to book a much longer session, so that we can get more generic cleaning things done.

If you're looking for a home cleaner in Sydney or Melbourne, I'd definitely get in touch with these guys & support a local business. Not a bad gift idea, what with Mother's Day coming up.... hint hint, fellas!

And best of all, homehello are offering a $25 voucher (a free hour!) off your first clean - so you can sample the service & take some time out for yourself. :)

Have you ever had your home cleaned before? Is this something you'd be interested in doing?
