In 2018, individuals over the age of 15 spent an average of 1 hour and 47 minutes per day doing household tasks.
For some people, this isn’t an issue—if you find cleaning to be relaxing or you simply have a lot of free time, for instance.
But that’s not always the case.
So, if you’ve been thinking about hiring a maid cleaning service but you keep telling yourself that “you shouldn’t be so lazy” or that “it’s not worth the investment”, keep reading.
These 5 signs that you should do it might just make you change your mind.

1. You Hate Cleaning
If this is your case, there’s nothing to feel guilty about—we all have different things we enjoy doing in our households and we know that you do your part to make sure everything goes smoothly.
But the truth is that if you dread cleaning your home, you’re never going to do it to perfection.
As much as you may have been trying to get better at it, it might be time to hire a home cleaning service. Hey, you win some, you lose some.
2. You Work 9 to 5 (and More)
If you’re a workaholic, 9 to 5 has probably become 9 to… who knows what time.
And of course, that leaves you less time and energy to do other things, including cleaning.
Hiring a maid cleaning service means that you won’t go home to complete chaos and things like a pile of dirty dishes in the sink or 3-weeks worth of laundry to be done won’t be causing you any more stress.
3. You Have a Big Family at Home
Has your life become all about taking care of your children?
It’s natural to put all your time, attention, and money on the little ones. After all, you’d do anything to make them happy.
But doing so typically means that you’ll be way too busy or tired to do things for yourself. So why not take the time you’d spend cleaning to do something you enjoy and make sure you’re just as happy as your children?
4. You Have Zero Free Time
Do you remember the last time you went to a romantic dinner with your partner? Or to drink a cocktail with your best friends? Or even to take a walk in the park and spend time with no one but yourself?
If the answers are no, no and no, it’s time to eliminate some tasks from your to-do list.
If you’re not convinced, take a look at this study from 2017, that concluded that buying time reduces stress and promotes happiness.
5. You Have/Are Expecting a New Baby
Newborns need their living environment to be as neat as possible, but as future/new parents, you’re probably way too tired and stressed to even think about holding a mop or a vacuum.
Hiring a housekeeper can make a huge difference during your initial time with the baby, at least until you start getting used to the member of the family.
Hire a Maid Cleaning Service and Relax
You might feel bad for hiring someone to come clean your house, almost like it’s money you could save if you pushed yourself a little bit harder.
When you start feeling like that, think about all the responsibilities you already have on your shoulders. Is there even any time left for you to take a breath and relax?
You deserve to take a break and hiring a maid cleaning service is the perfect way to ensure that you always have time to do so.
