Residential House Cleaning Professional

Independent contractor opportunity. We're a small Lakewood operation looking to add a contractor or two to our team this summer! About us Neat House Cleaning has been serving the Lakewood area for years, and we've grown the whole business on client referrals — which means our routes are stable, our clients tend to stay with us, and the people we contract with know weeks in advance where they'll be working. We clean residential homes on monthly, biweekly, or weekly schedules in Arvada, Aurora, Golden, Denver, Englewood, Lakewood, Littleton, and Wheat Ridge. We're a small operation and we like it that way. Our owner answers her own phone, knows every contractor by name, and is the person you'll actually talk to when questions come up about scope, scheduling, or a particular client. We work hard to make this a business contractors want to keep coming back to, and we measure that by how long our cleaners stay with us.
