Cleaning with a Conscience

Respect for people.
Respect for the planet.

From day one, we knew our model had to center on respect. We believe we all have a role to play in building a better world — whether we are individuals, a small local business, or a global corporation. Not only do we believe this is the right way to do business, we believe it just makes sense. For our planet, our team members, our clients, and our business. It really is a win-win-win-win for all of us.

Environmentally Responsible

Planet-Friendly

Safe for your family. Better for the earth.

All of our cleaning products are environmentally friendly and safe for you, your children, your pets — your entire family. Sustainability is woven into every detail, even the tools we clean with.

Made in the USA

Whenever possible, our tools are made from recycled materials and are recyclable themselves. We special-order spray bottles made from recycled plastic. Inconvenient? Yes. The right thing to do? Also yes.

We never use single-use products like paper towels. Our microfiber cloths are commercial-grade, machine-washed between every appointment, and replaced regularly.

Team-First Culture

People-Friendly

We take care of the people who take care of you.

We believe our team members deserve more than a paycheck. They deserve stability, respect, and a workplace that actually invests in them.

$25+ per hour to start

Competitive wages with clear paths to $34/hr. All team members are W-2 employees and keep 100% of tips.

Gold health insurance

Kaiser medical, dental, and vision. SGEC covers 75% of the cost. Includes reproductive and gender-affirming care.

3 to 5 weeks paid time off

Accrued from day one, increasing every year — plus 7 paid holidays annually.

Wellness, 401K, mileage and more

Monthly wellness reimbursements, employer-matched 401K, paid drive time, free oil changes, and more.

Giving Back

Rooted in community.

We believe business should be a force for good. That is not just a tagline — it is the foundation every decision we make is built on. That is the kind of business we choose to support and strive to be.

The Big Picture

Our team. Our clients. Our community.

We do not just clean homes. We create good jobs, minimize our environmental footprint, and invest in the wellbeing of those around us. When we care for our team, they can show up with pride and purpose. And that is exactly what you experience every time we walk through your door.
