Hi everyone, I’m new to this group. I wonder if anyone knows of a cleaner (or a good place to find one) for rental changeovers for a 4-bed house about 10km north of Bergerac? It would be for selected Saturdays in August. It’s a long shot but I’d really appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks!
As well as a notice in local boulangerie you could also try AlloVoisins. Not that since this is for your business you cannot use CESU and reclaim 50% as that is reserved for individials.
Thanks a lot, that’s really helpful. I wasn’t aware of that website but I’ll give it a try.
Who manages you property if you live overseas? They would be the people to ask.
Thanks for your reply David. The couple who were managing it have retired unfortunately. I asked them about local contacts but they didn’t know any, hence my dilemma.
Le Bon Coin often have adverts for house cleaners, ironing, gardening etc.
Hi Shiba, that’s a great recommendation that I wasn’t aware of, thank you.
A local Facebook group would be a good place to start.
We get a lot of people advertising down here because of the invasion of thousands of tourists every season. You can also vet them in person and get references if you need them and ask around where they live etc. Remember to get all your paperwork in order as anyone who gets the work will use it against future pension claims here.
Thanks Shiba, that’s good advice.
Thanks David. A good idea, I’ll check Facebook.
You can also look up associations which do cleaning and book x hours/week.
Only that morning I saw a similar question asked on our local page. It was replied to within minutes and that resulted in someone being found within hours. Sometimes local contact is the best way.
