Top 7 Cleaning

Why Top 7 Cleaning?

If you've tried to search for a cleaning company online recently, you know how hard it is. The web has changed a lot over the past few years... and not necessarily for the better.

Where you could once easily find a dependable company to hire, you now have to hack your way through a jungle of web spam sites, over-bloated free-for-all directories, obsolete listings, and irrelevant machine-generated web pages.

Top7Cleaning wants to fix this by doing most of the searching for you, then letting you pick from a small pool of the only best services out there. Each listing on this site is collected and hand-compiled, by industry pros with insider knowledge and "gut instincts" that help them locate the best cleaning companies you can possibly hire.

How do you pick your Top 7 Listings?

We have painstakingly combed through the commercial cleaning and housekeeping market to compile a limited, high-quality list of results for each state in the USA. Top 7 Cleaning is completely independent and objective in the way we select our results. Before a company makes it onto our list, it must pass a quality-control process using our Service-Rank matrix. Some factors that get considered include:

• Reputation
• Referenceability and testimonials
• Training
• Commitment
• Efficiency and systems
• Certifications
• Breadth of services
• Marketing materials
• Equipment
• Professionalism
• Customer service
• Communication
• Business philosophy
• SEO Rank
• Cost/Size ratios
• Openness to new business
• Seniority
• Social networking relevance
• Promotions and specials
• Media visibility
• Insurance and bonding
• Employee background checks
• Uniforms and vans
• Transparency
• Branding and appearance
• Attention to detail
• And more...

Companies that don't meet our minimum standards for quality get rejected instantly, and only the best get published. If you see a business here, it's because we honestly believe that they'll do a good job if you hire them.

Also, our list is updated frequently. In order to keep up with changing business trends, we regularly review and update our results in order to maintain a standard of quality unequalled in any other online cleaning services directory.

Why no big chains or franchises?

Too often, large nationwide cleaning companies will sell contracts out to the lowest bidder. And other well-known national brands will sell lease their brands out to franchisees for money. When this happens, it causes problems for the customer because without regard for how trustworthy and dependable that provider is.

In our experience, family-owned and independent, locally-focused companies usually provide the best and most trustworthy services.

Although many contract-buyers and franchisees provide excellent service, we simply prefer to evaluate companies this way since it gives us more transparency and control.

What is the Gold Seal?

Sometimes, we'll find a company that offers excellent service, but doesn't quite fit into the Top 7 results based on our Service-Rank matrix analysis.

In this case, these companies will be added to the side bar for consideration. We try to keep these results at a minimum in order to maintain our "Quality Over Quantity" Philosophy. And in the event that one of our Top 7 selections falls off the list, a Gold Seal company might very well replace it.
