Our Ethos



When My Green Cleaner first started I was concerned not just with using ecologically sound products but also building an ethically sound company. We employ all of our staff which means they are entitled to holiday pay. We also pay above minimum wage and ensure that our cleaners do not work too many hours a day.
We want our employees to feel valued and believe that happy employees produce the best work!

Christmas



As I am sure you are well aware of by now, Christmas is only round the corner! Now is the perfect time to book in your pre Christmas clean to ensure that you house is shiny and sparkling for the special day.
To get that lovely Christmas aroma in your house try studding an orange with cloves and tying some cinnamon bark to the top. Hang around your house for that instant warming scent.

Disinfecting the eco way



One thing that I am sure is of concern to many people when pondering the decision to move to eco cleaning products is 'Will they act as a disinfectant?'.
A disinfectant that you can quickly make up at home could be the answer to your worries;
  • Start with 3 cups of hot water
  • Add 2 teaspoons of Borax
  • 4 tablespoons of vinegar
  • Add to a squirty bottle to use
While this won't remove all bacteria, it should sufficiently disinfect the area that you clean.

Tip of the day.




One problem that we often face when cleaning is a build up of lime-scale on taps and shower heads. A good way to combat this is to soak rags in distilled white vinegar and wrap them around the offending area. Leave for an hour and come back and give it a good scrub to see a marked difference.
