The Hidden Costs of Choosing Cheap Cleaning Services in the Inner West

You get what you pay for. But in the Inner West, going cheap often means going backward.

From damage to reputation to compliance issues, this blog explores what really happens when Sydney businesses try to cut corners on cleaning.

๐Ÿ’ธ Real Case Study:

A retail shop in Camperdown hired a solo cleaner on Airtasker. They skipped insurance, used dollar-store chemicals, and within a month, the store had:

  • $700 in scratched flooring damage

  • 1.5-star drop in Google rating due to "bad smell"

  • Staff allergic reaction to chemicals (hospital visit involved)

๐Ÿšจ Common Issues with Budget Cleaners:

  • Lack of OH&S or Safe Work compliance

  • Poor chemical handling = long-term surface damage

  • No-shows or ghosting during peak hours

๐Ÿ“Š What the Data Says:

Businesses spending 15% more on cleaning contracts saw a 35% drop in hygiene-related complaints over 6 months (Ultrix client stats, 2024).
