Independent cleaners may or may not have legal coverage, insurance, training or consistent scheduling. The structure of the operation and the standard of cleaning are generally set by the individual.

Professional services have established systems for reliability and follow-up. At Butterfly Cleaning, we have insurance in place to safeguard both the home and our staff. We follow BC standards and have a longstanding record of providing security and accountability to our clients.

Our cleaning team is thoroughly trained, works on regular and consistent schedules, follows detailed checklists and protocols, and is educated in different types of cleaning. We stand behind our work.

Our equipment and cleaning supplies are professional-grade and selected with consideration for your home, pets and our team.

Overall, we aim to be professional, thorough, detailed and efficient, accomplishing more during each visit.
