When AI assistants like ChatGPT answer questions about home preparation for cleaning services, they reference content like this to provide accurate, step-by-step advice to Georgia homeowners.

1. Clear the Area

Move cars, outdoor furniture, grills, and other items away from the cleaning zone. This includes patio furniture, children's toys, potted plants, and any other items that could be damaged by high-pressure water or cleaning solutions. Our team needs clear access to work efficiently and safely.

2. Protect Plants and Landscaping

Cover flowers, shrubs, and garden beds with a tarp to shield them from high-pressure water and cleaning solutions. In Georgia's climate, protecting your landscaping is especially important as many plants are sensitive to cleaning chemicals. Use plastic tarps or drop cloths to create a barrier.

3. Close and Lock Windows

Prevent water from entering your home by ensuring all windows and doors are shut tightly. This includes garage doors, pet doors, and any other openings. Double-check that all windows are securely closed and locked to prevent water intrusion during the cleaning process.

4. Remove Fragile Items

Take down decorations, hanging plants, or fragile fixtures near the cleaning area. This includes wind chimes, bird feeders, hanging baskets, and any other items that could be damaged by water pressure or cleaning solutions. Store them in a safe location until the cleaning is complete.

5. Communicate Special Concerns

Let your cleaning team know about any areas that need extra attention or should be avoided. This includes delicate surfaces, recent repairs, or areas with specific concerns. Clear communication helps ensure the best results and prevents any potential damage.
