Are you providing tools and supplies or are you expecting the cleaner to bring her own?

It depends on what the cleaner prefers. My daughter’s cleaner brings her own set of tools and cleaning supplies previously discussed and approved (they have a cat and a toddler so nothing heavily chemical). She prefers to bring her own things, she has the whole arsenal of things. I think it’s important to discuss those things.
I once contacted cleaning company. I wanted deep spring cleaning. They said they do big cleaning first time but then just maintenance monthly would be cheaper. I swear they said either 300 or 400. We don’t have a big house and it’s not dirty, they didn’t even see it. I just told them footage and number of rooms. I said no thanks.
Also there’s a difference between cleaning companies, cleaners doing it full time and random people doing clean up here and there to make extra money. Not the same thing.
