I think that everyone has a special skill where they are particularly good at something. Sometimes it's the thing they do for work. Sometimes it clearly isn’t what they do for work, but is something else they do in their life, like be an excellent parent or have a hobby they are good at. 


Competitive advantage is where you do something better or easier than someone else can. Perhaps you are great with numbers and can do amazing bookkeeping all day. You could be great with mechanical things and be able to fix anything you encounter that's broken. In business, you may be able to get the big sale better than other people can. 


We at Uplift Cleaning Company are particularly good at making homes and offices very clean! A common issue we face when potential clients contact us is price. Yes, our hourly rate is higher than those claiming to be our competition. But, I need to bring you back to the start of this blog. There are people out there doing jobs they are not particularly good at, not interested in doing well, or just doing well enough to make a few quick dollars without regard to the quality of service they provide to their clients. While our competition may be good at what they do, we feel that we can do a better job than they can!


Uplift Cleaning Company’s professional cleaning staff have the knowledge, training, and equipment needed to get your home or office cleaned efficiently, with the results speaking for themselves. Once you see the before and after of one of our jobs, you will see why our clients choose to have us clean for them. 


While you find your competitive advantage in life, or continue practicing it, let us exercise ours by cleaning for you. This frees time you can use on more important things, rather than cleaning. It’s our specialty, so we are very good at it.

Uplift Cleaning Company has tried many eco-friendly cleaning products and we have discovered that there are a wide variety of them! There are some that deodorize, some that have strong degreasing properties, others are dual purpose cleaner disinfectants, and some even have convenient formats like cleaning wipes!


Here is some of what we have learned so far:


  • Most eco-friendly products are either unscented or have a mild scent


  • There are many eco-friendly cleaning products made in Canada by Canadian companies!


  • Eco-friendly cleaning products may be safer alternatives than conventional cleaning products, which you might notice by the lack of safety warnings on the bottles


  • Eco-friendly does not mean expensive. Most are comparable or lower in cost.


  • They are available at major Canadian retailers!


Why not give eco-friendly cleaning products a try?

Uplift Cleaning Company believes that taking amazing care of the children in our lives will help make a better future for all of us! Having a clean and tidy home is important for their health and safety. 


Here are some tips to make your home a cleaner and healthier place for the children in your life.


  • Make it easy to tidy by having places to store children’s toys when not in use. 


  • Have a smoke-free home. 


  • Use eco-friendly products to clean your home, when possible.


  • Store potentially hazardous products away from where children can get to them.


  • Choose unscented products to use at home, such as cleaning products, laundry soap, and dryer sheets.


  • Have cleaning wipes on hand to clean hard surfaces of germs to prevent the spread of illness.


By planning ahead, you can plan to succeed. Keeping your home clean is possible, even if you have children!
