I was wanting to know what everyone’s thoughts are on hiring a cleaning service. My fiancé works out of town for 3 weeks at a time, then he comes home for 10 days. I work full time ( plus) and my schedule is hectic. I go back and forth between morning, mid, and night shift. I can work all three shifts In one week, every week. we have a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom house that’s about 2,500 sf……2 living rooms, high ceilings, lots of tile , and lots of dusting to do.
I’ll add that before I moved into his house, his brother who does short term rentals for his business was renting out our house while my fiancé was gone, so it was being detail cleaned often so my fiancé is used to the house looking like a magazine.
I find it mentally taxing to keep up with the house sometimes. When I do get a day off, I don’t want to spend it cleaning but I like to make sure everything is perfect when he comes home so he can relax and come home to a clean house. He is a bit old fashioned and doesn’t want to me to hire a cleaning service but we keep our finances separate and I’d be paying for it. I was thinking about hiring someone to do a monthly clean so that stress of making sure things a perfect can be lifted from me. Would it be bad to just not tell him or should I try talking to him again. Or am I just being lazy.
would love anyone’s opinion.
