Summarize the following:
Call your potential client and ask them if you can look at the space ahead of time. Schedule a time that works for both you and the client so you can visit the areas that need to be cleaned. Seeing the area firsthand can help you determine the size and scope of what you need to complete throughout the job. Taking the time to do a walkthrough also shows your client that you’re willing to put in extra time and care to give them a fair and honest deal. Your client should have the measurements of each room so you can determine the size of the space. Larger projects require more work hours and manpower than smaller areas. Ask your client as soon as you arrive if they have specific measurements. If measurements aren’t given to you by your client, then be prepared to measure the space yourself. Carry a notebook with you as you do your walkthrough. Write whether the floors are tile, wood, carpet, or another material so you can determine if you need any special cleaners. While carpets may only need to be vacuumed, hard floors should be swept and mopped. If you’re unsure about what material the flooring is, ask the client to clarify so you know for sure. Count the number of restrooms, sinks, or any other large fixtures throughout the area. These areas tend to get dirtier and will require more time for you to clean. Then, count the number of windows so you know how much glass you’ll need to clean. Ask if you need to wash the exterior windows as well as the interior. Take a digital camera or a smartphone with you during your walkthrough. Get good, clear pictures of each area the client wants you to clean so you can look at them later while writing your bid. The photos can help you remember details about additional work that needs to be done in a specific area. Always ask the client if it’s alright for you to take pictures. As you’re walking through the space, ask the client what they want you to clean. Ask them for specific details, like whether desks need to be straightened out, carpets need to be shampooed, or exterior windows should be wiped. Take notes on all the details the client tells you.  Getting detailed answers helps you and your client come to an agreement about the expectations and gives you a better idea of what to estimate for your bid. Ask your client what times they expect you to clean and how often you’ll work on site. Some clients will give you supplies, such as toilet paper or soap, but don’t offer other cleaning supplies. Ask them if you’ll have access to any supplies on site or if you’ll need to bring your own. As you walk around, make note of any supplies you may need while you’re cleaning.

summary: Ask to do a walkthrough of the area you’ll be cleaning. Request the measurements of the spaces you’re going to clean. Takes notes on the type of flooring throughout the space. Write down the number of fixtures and windows. Photograph the areas the client wants cleaned for reference. Discuss with the client what special services they expect from you. Ask the client if they’ll provide any supplies.

It is important that you do not put clothing onto which color has transferred into the dryer. Doing so will set the transferred dye into the fabric. This will create a permanent transfer of color between the items, effectively ruining your clothing. Once you realize that dye from one piece of clothing has transferred on to your white clothing, separate the colored piece of clothing from the white clothing. This will prevent additional dye from transferring on to your white clothes. Before you attempt to remove dye that has transferred on to your clothing, you will need to carefully read the clothing labels. The labels will tell you whether it is safe to use products like bleach, and what temperatures are safe for washing the fabric.

summary: Do not place the clothing in the dryer. Separate the clothing. Read the clothing labels.
