Let us be the caregiver for the homeowner. We take care of all the things around your home that you can never finish.
Let us be the caregiver for the homeowner. We take care of all the things around your home that you can never finish.
The Basics
These are chores that can likely get completed within an hour. Dog walking; folding a few loads of laundry; basic kitchen clean; cleaning out the fridge; sweeping and mopping the floor.
The Extras
Some chores do require more time and energy and we want you to have realistic expectations about the duration from start to completion. Cleaning multiple bathrooms; washing, drying and folding a few loads of laundry; sorting through previously loved toys, clothes and decorations and meal prep for the week are just a few tasks that will definitely require more than one hour.
The UGH (can also go by many other names)
Decluttering and organizing
The UGH. The others. The chores that shall not be named. There are rooms in your home that have become abandoned of people and rather become a dumping ground of: Halloween costumes; old art projects; boxes of cosmetic samplers; clothes that no longer fit; papers, receipts, warranties; and all toys that have broken and you have promised to repair. These rooms shall be conquered, but you need our HELP! Pantries and all the cupboards in your kitchen could use some love! How is your linen closet looking? Are your bookshelves even holding books? We won’t talk mention your closet or under the basement stairs. But seriously, we are here to FINALLY TACKLE all the “UGH” places in your dwelling.
Deep cleaning
We tackle each room and clean all top surfaces, baseboards and floors. In the kitchen, appliances are wiped; all counters are cleaned; and dishes are cleaned and put away. In the bathroom, we clean as much grout as possible; clean in and around the faucet, basin and toilet; mirrors and shower walls wiped and floors washed. In the bedroom, we can change linens, wipe all surfaces, dust and organize bureaus and side tables and clean the floors. In the living rooms, we will clean under couches and furniture, wipe all bookcases and appliances and clean table tops and furniture. We will sweep/vacuum all floors and mop/steam clean floors where appropriate. We will clean mirrors and interior windows as well.
Downsizing
Whether you have a drawer full of unmatched Tupperware, or a bin of clothes your child outgrew months ago, J’aide can help you decide what items is worth keeping and what items it is time to say “au revoir” to.
Donation
J’aide teams up alongside local charities to bring your gently loved clothes, furniture and toys to a new home. We will sort through your items and either arrange for pick-up, or transport it ourselves for donation, at $30 plus tax per drop-off.
Selling
After decluttering, you may decide you want to try and sell that hand mixer that has been sitting in a box the last 5 years. Let us help in selling your items! J’aide will create an online post for whatever it is you wish to sell. We assist in the organization, posting and transaction of your items, and sharing 50% of the profits.
