Is It Safe to Hire a House Cleaner? How Roswell Clean Vets Every Cleaner

---

You leave for work in Alpharetta at 7:45, the kids are already dropped off, and a cleaner you’ve never met is about to let themselves into your empty house. Is it safe to hire a house cleaner when you won’t be there to watch them work? For us, the honest answer starts with a number: about 10% of the people who apply to clean for Roswell Clean actually get hired. Every one of them passes a nationwide criminal background check and sits down for a personal interview with owner Linda McMahon before they’re ever assigned to a home in Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Marietta, or Milton.

That’s the short version. The sections below cover what each part of the process actually involves.

Is It Safe to Hire a House Cleaner? What Roswell Clean’s Vetting Actually Covers

Every application starts with a nationwide criminal background check, not a search limited to Georgia. The people who pass it then sit down with Linda directly for a real conversation about experience, reliability, and how someone carries themselves in a stranger’s home. Between the background check and the interview, only about 1 in 10 applicants make it through both steps. Those are the cleaners who end up on the schedule in Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Marietta, and Milton.

What Happens If Something Goes Wrong While You’re at Work?

Say you get home and notice the baseboards were missed, or a counter didn’t get wiped down the way you expected. Report it within 24 hours and we’ll send someone back to fix it within a 7-day window, at no extra charge. That guarantee is how we catch what you would have caught yourself if you’d been home.

How Are Cleaning Teams Assigned to Your Home?

The size of your home determines who shows up. A 1 to 3 bedroom home gets one cleaner. A home with 4 or more bedrooms gets a team of two. Every cleaner on the schedule, solo or on a two-person team, has already been through the same background check and interview. Cleaners are also paid by the job rather than by the hour, so there’s no incentive to stretch out the time in your house or rush through it to get to the next stop.

Is My Payment Information Safe When I Book Online?

The booking page runs on extended-validation SSL with a 256-bit encrypted form. Payments are processed through Stripe, and Roswell Clean never stores your card number. When you book a cleaning for your home in Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Marietta, or Milton, your card details go directly to Stripe’s secure system, not into a file in our office.

Can I Check Roswell Clean’s Reputation Before I Book?

Yes, and we’d encourage it. Roswell Clean, LLC is BBB accredited, and you can read real customer reviews on Google, Yelp, and Facebook, plus our listing on Bark.com. Look the company up by name before your first appointment.
