Our Approach to Green Cleaning

Posted on September 17, 2015. Filed under: About Sponge & Sparkle, Green Cleaning | Tags: green cleaning |

These days we hear a lot about “green” products and services. Since use of the term is not regulated, how do you know if the product or service is really beneficial to the environment?

When it comes to professional cleaning, here’s what we mean by “green:”

Our bathroom and kitchen cleaner is made by Seaside Natural and contains natural ingredients including lavender, eucalyptus, tea tree oil, borax, vinegar, and alcohol. These products not only clean and sanitize effectively, but are also environmentally benign.
Our products are non-toxic and biodegradable. Many cleaners contain harsh chemicals that can actually burn and injure people if not handled properly. Many conventional cleaners also persist in the environment (that is, they do not biodegrade). Wastewater containing these chemicals contributes to water pollution.
Our products contain low or no volatile organic compound (VOCs)—chemicals that are released into the air when a product comes out of the bottle. VOCs are lung and eye irritants and aggravate allergies. Our products improve rather than degrade your indoor air quality.
Our products are not tested on animals.
Our products are formulated as concentrates and/or come in bulk, which reduces waste from excess packaging.

We are convinced that clean also means green! We make your home sparkle while respecting and protecting the health and beauty of your household and Mother Earth’s too.

What our Customers Say

Satisfaction Guaranteed!

I have been using this cleaning service for at least 22 years. their employees don’t come and go but stay with the company, which gives me a great degree of comfort. If anything is not just right, the owner herself will either come out or send someone to redo it. I feel like they are part of our family! Also they are using “green” products more than ever.

Amazing Service

I have had Sponge & Sparkle once to do the head to toe hourly cleaning, and now I had them a second time for a regular monthly cleaning that I plan to continue indefinitely! The service is the best I’ve ever experienced, and the rate is worth every penny. The staff are so courteous and cheerful, and the work they do is truly stellar.

Sponge and Sparkle House Cleaning Services

I have been using this agency for 3 plus years and have been delighted not just with their good work and professionalism but how personable their employees are at all times. They are able to accommodate emergencies including cancellations which I am sure puts them at a hardship but do so with a smile and with compassion. Please try them and use their detailed cleaning services at least once and you will be in for a treat. More importantly they use environmentally friendly products that is a huge plus for me.
