4 Reasons Renters Need Professional Cleaners
Admin • April 13, 2020

Many people may consider homeownership a quintessential part of the American experience, but more than a third of American households currently choose to rent. If you are among the tens of millions of Americans who rent their primary place of residence, then you may feel as if professional cleaners don't have much to offer you. Why worry about cleaning what you don't own?
In reality, renters can benefit just as much from professional cleaning services as homeowners. In many ways, cleaners offer a unique value proposition for those who do not own their home. If you've thought that your space could use some professional help, then these four advantages might just convince you to take the plunge.
1. You'll Safeguard Your Security Deposit
A surprisingly large percentage of renters have reported losing their security deposits at least once. Losing a security deposit can be a painful experience, especially if money is tight. Although you cannot predict every possible landlord complaint, you can improve your odds by taking excellent care of your apartment.
One of the best ways to ensure that you leave your apartment as good as (or better) than you found it is to maintain the carpets. You shouldn't panic over a dirty carpet, but long-term stains and ground-in dirt can sometimes be challenging to remove. A professional carpet cleaning service can help guarantee that your landlord won't find anything to complain about on your floors.
2. You Can’t Deal With Every Mess
Pets make life easier, but living with pets in a rental space can sometimes be challenging. Even when pets are allowed, most landlords expect their tenants to clean any messes thoroughly. Most pet owners aren't too upset when their furry friend has an accident, but landlords might not be so forgiving. Even worse, removing a tough pet stain isn't always easy to do on your own.
Luckily, professional cleaners have plenty of experience dealing with these sometimes unavoidable disasters. When you call a pro, they will perform a deep cleaning to remove not only the stain but any lingering odor as well. Even better, you can expect them to make use of cleaners that are safe for all of your household's occupants.
3. You Can Save on Cleaning Fees
If you've ever lived in an apartment run by a property management company, then you may have been offered a professional cleaning service before moving out. Management companies often provide these services to help reduce the workload on outgoing tenants, but they aren't always cheap. One way that you can save some money is by hiring a cleaner of your own.
While a full move-out cleaning might be thorough, you can often take care of most of the basics yourself. Focus instead on bringing a professional in for the harder work: carpets, tile, grout, and other challenging or labor-intensive cleaning projects. Handling just a little bit of the work yourself can save you a whole lot of money.
4. You Can Protect Your Investments
You might not own the space, but you likely own most of the furniture and other items within it. The right furniture can be an excellent investment, especially if you purchase higher-end items that you intend to take to future homes. As with carpets, leaving messes on your upholstery can lead to stains that will be much more challenging to remove in the future.
If your apartment has couches, chairs, or other upholstered items that are looking a little worse-for-wear, then a professional cleaning can help to make them look new again. Treating your furniture to some professional attention now and then can help it to last through many future moves.
