Q&A With Patty Vaughn

Q&A: Patty Vaughn

For one client, Green Clean’s commercial and home cleaning services are key to

keeping the medical office she manages spotless and her home in top shape.

Question:  Why did you select Green Clean over other residential cleaning services?

Answer:  I met with the representatives of Green Clean and was impressed with their

professionalism and the variety of home cleaning services they provide. Plus, the

products they use are good for the environment, and that’s important to me.

Green Clean is known for sending the same crew consistently.

Question:  What have you come to appreciate about your crew?

Answer:  I have had the same two-person crew since I started with the company. They’re

friendly, trustworthy and thorough, and I know that if I asked them to do a little

extra scrub here, or some extra polishing there, they’d do it happily.

How frequently does Green Clean take care of your home?

Question:  Do they handle your commercial cleaning needs, as well?

Answer:  Green Clean cleans my home twice a month and my office twice a week.

Question:  How did Green Clean tailor its services to your specific cleaning needs?

Answer:  For my office, it is important to have patient areas expertly sanitized. For the

employee areas, it’s important not to have the work disturbed or moved.

Green Clean meets those expectations, and I find that their commercial cleaning

services are as wonderful as their home cleaning services.

Question:  Why is using Eco-friendly products important to you?

Answer:  As a grandparent and as someone who helps care for the patients who visit our

office, I know that the fewer chemicals and toxins we have in our environment,

the better. I appreciate that the products Green Clean uses to clean my home

and office are free of VOCs and other nasty chemicals and compounds.

Question:  If you could describe Green Clean in three words, what would those words be?

Answer:  Thorough, friendly, fantastic!

Question:  Home cleaning services are an investment. How does Green Clean make

that investment worth it?

Answer:  Green Clean saves me time and makes coming home to a clean house really

special. That’s a really good investment. Running a small business and a

household means that time is particularly valuable to me. Green Clean gives me

a little extra time to spend doing things I enjoy, rather than cleaning my home

and office. Plus, their pricing is so competitive, that it’s worth it on every level.

Holidays Cleaning Stress

It’s no secret that the holiday season can trigger stress. Just thinking of it — the  shopping, the food preparation, the family visits, the top-to-bottom home cleaning  can make your heart beat a little faster and your head start to pound the way it does when you know that one nutty family member is coming to dinner.

Stress is so prevalent in the United States, in fact, that 77 percent of Americans feel it at least once a week, according to a recently released Huffington Post survey. Ninety-one percent of those polled felt stress within the past month, and those numbers are compounded during the holidays. What’s one of the top reasons? A lack of home organization and cleanliness.

            

While Green Clean Phoenix can’t tackle your holiday cooking or shopping or manage that nutty family member, we can help manage the mess. Our home cleaning services can be customized to meet your specific needs, but they always include:

-          Environmentally friendly, non-toxic products

-          A professional, on-time crew

-          Detailed cleaning

Sure, home cleaning services are an investment, but you might commit to a regular cleaning schedule with Green Clean Phoenix as an investment in your mental and physical health. Once your home is clean and clutter-free, you’re more likely to want to keep it that way, according to the same Huffington Post study, reducing your chances of remaining a stress statistic.

The kitchen is the center of the family house  . we used to spent hours there every day. it is also the most important room for cleaning, and not only once a week when the team of "green clean phoenix" is  coming...   it must be cleaned  every day!

1. Dirty kitchen will become a center of illness in no time , and not just because of rotten food, but  also because of food that left on the counter or on the floor which will attract roaches and others to the party! who knows what these guys are carrying with them...

2. Save on your electric bill, YES, i know it's sounds crazy but think about it, if you have dust which all of us have in our homes ,if we don't clean it than the refrigerator doors are not sealed ,air is coming in and out  and that will cost you money, same idea with other appliances.  very important to clean the gasket .change the filters .

3. Entertain your guests with no fear! i know it is funny but when your family or friends are coming over it does look better for you if your kitchen looks good. and that is a fact!

4. Your appliances will survive for a longer time, if they be cleaned regularly (no chemicals).

5. If you see or smell rotten food, get it out of the house ASAP.    major reason for illness. packaging the food is always a good idea.

6. Clean kitchen is also safe kitchen. when dirty and oily chances of catching fire are much higher.

7. Do not buy food for two or three weeks in advance, shop every two to three days . the food will be fresh and  with less chances to get rotten or not be used at all.

8. Educate your family and friends!!!

Few points to keep your kitchen clean

• Wash hands before and after handling food.
• Wash cutting boards with hot, soapy water every time you use them. Discard cutting boards with deep scoring or gouges.
• Wash hands after touching your nose, mouth and eyes.
• Wash hands after making raw meat and eggs.
• Keep household cleaners away from food prep areas.
• Don't forget to clean gadgets you use for food prep : meat thermometers, measuring cups, measuring spoons, can openers, sieves,blenders, colanders,wooden spoons, cookie sheets and spoon rests. If it touches perishable foods, it need to be cleaned.
• Dispose of spoiled food . Never keep leftovers in the refrigerator more than four days.
• Refrigerate perishable foods after no more than two hours at room temperature.
• Food item that looks and smells off in any way, pitch it.

All the home cleaning and especially in the kitchen area is recommended to be done by green products ,non toxic products,like baking soda and vinegar . do not clean your food with chemicals and do not keep chemicals in your kitchen for safety reasons ,be very careful when having kids and pets .

About Cora A partner at “Green Clean Phoenix”

Cora Andrade a partner at “Green Clean Phoenix” Eco friendly cleaning service

Green Clean is becoming more and more popular as we are starting to see the effects of cleaning products to our environment. Many household cleaners we have used for years are bad for our lungs,allergies, environment, pets and family. Would you let your child have a bleach, pine sol or any other chemical lollipop? That’s what we are doing when we use these chemicals on our floors then let our child crawl on floor. I use to clean my floors daily with bleach as well as wall never thinking effects it could have on my children or myself. We were taught to disinfect and we should keep our homes clean and germ free but with so many natural products it is so not necessary to do so with with these powerful cleaners. We have found in using these simple natural products not only are our home clean and disinfected, there is no strong odor or powerful harmful fumes. So Go Green !!

I have been cleaning homes for over 30 years. I have always loved my job. I am my own boss, I have been blessed to have fabulous clients. I always treat people with respect as well as deserve it in return. Having reasonable prices,doing the best job I can, being honest, dependable means a lot. I then decided to get my Real Estate license and love that as well. I guess I just really really enjoy working with  people and making there lives easier. I was talking to a friend I met through Real Estate about cleaning. He was interested in Green Cleaning. I knew not to much so we started investigating and working with natural products. I was hesitant as I had been use to strong cleaners. Can these natural products really clean and disinfect. YES YES they can and BETTER.. I started using baking soda, vinegar, borax, olive oil,lemon juice. To my surprise not only were my mirrors and windows sparkling every thing seemed fresh.

 I have never received a complaint and have had happy clients but as soon as we started getting clients and using these products my clients started reaching out immediately to tell me how happy there are, how clean everything is, how fresh there home is and needless to say we are protecting theenvironment, our pets as well as ourselves. I am so happy I made this switch and encourage you to as well !!
