Title: Supplies and Equipment
Post by: Hayley Morgan on September 07, 2015, 07:59:45 am

Hi All,

I have just started my own business Domestic Cleaning Cardiff (http://morgan-cleaning-services.com) and have to be honest I am struggling with getting quality supplies .  Generally I am doing deep cleans and running out of supplies quickly and find getting low priced quality supplies is difficult, does anyone have any good supplier I could go to please.

Thanks in advance :)

When I first started internal cleaning I just rang evans and other manufacturers and they put me In touch with there local supplier.

For sprays I use flash and other general cleaning bits, I will have them picked up from home & bargains or b&m type stores, usually £1 bottle, or a cheaper option is
lemon gels into spray bottles diluted with water.

In my opinion you should always turn up with Professional Cleaning products.  Yes they are a little more expensive but they look professional, they are professional and you can't buy them in shops and ultimately they do a better job and go further.  So this in turn improves your company image and makes you look more professional.  You should try and set yourself apart not follow others!  If they see you using Flash or similar their thinking is " I can buy this myself" so why pay someone to apply something I can buy.

Hi,

I clean domestic houses and use Flash, Cif, Harpic, Pledge etc.  I buy these at 89p - £1 a bottle in my local home bargains.  All my clients are happy with these products, I dont buy the cheaper 'own brand' products as I dont think that looks very professional!

I used to do that. Now I buy it by 5 litres usually Seldens products, and 100 spray bottles and triggers and dilute down myself. 500ml spray bottle costs me about 5p now.

Label the bottles with your own logo and name.
