Speaker 1: The experts with Jason Lauren, your vessel specialists.
Speaker 2: Who specialize in very special things.
Speaker 3: Hi.
Speaker 4: I'm Jason Shipway and I'm an expert in cleaning.
Speaker 5: Let's hear from the expert.
Speaker 3: Jason Shipway is our cleaning expert.
Speaker 5: He joined us this morning.
Speaker 2: Jason morning, Jason, Good morning guys.
Speaker 5: How are you going good? You're going to save our furniture.
Speaker 2: I wish you lived with me.
Speaker 5: So what do you do? Jason?
Speaker 4: So, I've got a cleaning company in Western Australia called
Speaker 4: Enhanced Cleaning. We do commercial and residential. We've got a
Speaker 4: team of about sixty and I'm also certified in trauma
Speaker 4: and crime scene and mold, so all things mold.
Speaker 5: Wow, that's okay. Bit to break down here.
Speaker 6: How did you become an expert clean? Were you fascinated
Speaker 6: with cleaning as a kid? Were you?
Speaker 2: Were you a clean freak?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've always been a bit fascinated with it, but
Speaker 4: it wasn't until I was eighteen I really pulled the
Speaker 4: trigger and actually started a business. And then yeah, six
Speaker 4: years later, here we are.
Speaker 1: What's the worst you've seen?
Speaker 4: I mean, I've seen some pretty bad stuff. Things I
Speaker 4: probably couldn't talk about on radio, but you can let
Speaker 4: your imagination run wild.
Speaker 5: Well, I think it's two areas.
Speaker 3: One is residential, where I'm sure you know it's more
Speaker 3: comical and you would have seen some pretty shocking stuff.
Speaker 5: Hoarder's places really freaked me out. That's not going on,
Speaker 5: yeah my olden stuff.
Speaker 4: Yeah, hoarder's place is really I'm not a big fan
Speaker 4: of those ones. I just get anxiety walking into a
Speaker 4: place and just seeing stuff piles of the ceiling. I
Speaker 4: like to stay in one place for a short amount
Speaker 4: of time and then move to the next, So those
Speaker 4: really aren't my cup of tea. But I do love
Speaker 4: residential because generally speaking, people seem to take better care
Speaker 4: of their own homes rather than a lot of commercial spaces.
Speaker 4: We clean like you know, you can imagine what it's
Speaker 4: like trying to clean a shopping center now.
Speaker 3: I remember growing up on mean streets to Brisbane in
Speaker 3: a full house with three other sisters, and I remember
Speaker 3: Mum always just going put vinegar on it. It was
Speaker 3: like that was the go to for cleaning everything. Yeah,
Speaker 3: is it the go to or is there a better option?
Speaker 4: Well, vinegar is great because it's got that acidity and
Speaker 4: if you combine it with a bit of dish soap
Speaker 4: in a spray bottle with some water. It's actually a
Speaker 4: very very good cleaner and you can use that for
Speaker 4: ninety percent of the house there are.
Speaker 2: Going to be or carpet or cloth.
Speaker 4: It's great for surfaces, it's it's really good for eating
Speaker 4: away at limescale built up on showers again because of
Speaker 4: that acidity. But you are going to find some better
Speaker 4: purpose cleaners off the shelf in you know, commercial grade
Speaker 4: stuff in places like Bunnings. But if you if you
Speaker 4: don't have that, then reaching for vinegar and some dish
Speaker 4: soap is really going to be all you need.
Speaker 6: Okay, Jason, Now the internet is full of I'm a
Speaker 6: lazy girl cleaner? Is there a hack to keeping you
Speaker 6: getting your house clean quickly?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 2: Are there things?
Speaker 6: You know if you fluff the pillows, the vacuum? Yeah,
Speaker 6: what are some cleaning hacks to make things happen faster?
Speaker 4: I mean, there's a lot of cleaning hacks. Some of
Speaker 4: them are a bit more questionable than others. I've seen
Speaker 4: people cleaning with tomato sauce, which I'm not sure why
Speaker 4: you wouldn't just go and buy a bit of bray
Speaker 4: and white reach their own. No, there's a lot of
Speaker 4: good hacks. You can grab an old pillow case and
Speaker 4: throw that over your ceiling fans to dust them. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: I've seen. I've seen people using you know, a few
Speaker 4: drops of lemon and some hot water in the microwave.
Speaker 4: Turned that on for a few minutes and then you'll
Speaker 4: be able to wipe everything away with a paper towel.
Speaker 2: And then it doesn't smell like popcorn anymore.
Speaker 4: Removes the odor and everything as well, which is great.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because I've burned popcorn in my microwave for a
Speaker 5: little while with the lemon.
Speaker 4: Throw it out, just a few drops of water with
Speaker 4: some some vinegar in a little tray with water, and
Speaker 4: you're good to go.
Speaker 5: Do you have a cleaner or do you do your own?
Speaker 4: It depends. I usually have some of my staff come
Speaker 4: and clean my place.
Speaker 5: Imagine them cleaning for the boss and make.
Speaker 2: Sure everything was immaculates.
Speaker 4: They do a good job.
Speaker 2: Can stuff.
Speaker 6: Like to chest not in Melbourne, but that mystery boss,
Speaker 6: send them over.
Speaker 1: I'll give you a review on behalf of everyone who
Speaker 1: has a cleaner. Lucky enough to have a cleaner, ask
Speaker 1: a very important question Jason.
Speaker 5: Do you do it cheaper for cash?
Speaker 1: Do you expect do you expect us to pre clean?
Speaker 1: It should be pre clean before the cleaner.
Speaker 4: Do you mean just like tidying or what do you mean?
Speaker 2: Well, my mom used to say, make sure you know, I.
Speaker 1: Even I sort of done the bench tops and all
Speaker 1: that sort of things. Point well, because I just don't
Speaker 1: want it too like a shit show.
Speaker 4: But I think that's what it is. I think people
Speaker 4: just feel a bit self conscious about having it be
Speaker 4: too dirty, so they try to get it to a
Speaker 4: standard or to a point that the cleaner can come
Speaker 4: in and then be like, oh, these people aren't you know,
Speaker 4: Well you said it not me. But there's there's two
Speaker 4: types of cleaners. You've got the maids and then you've
Speaker 4: got people who just come in and clean. Maids they're
Speaker 4: going to fold your laundry, they're going to do the dishes,
Speaker 4: they're going.
Speaker 3: To it's got one of the commonly on a chuck
Speaker 3: I do not.
Speaker 2: I don't that's unfair.
Speaker 4: So then the cleaners they'll they'll usually ask you to
Speaker 4: do that stuff and you know, pick things up off
Speaker 4: the floor so that they can just have a free
Speaker 4: surface to clean.
Speaker 6: Soon when cleaners walk into our house. Are they're judging us?
Speaker 4: I think some people would be the stuff I've seen.
Speaker 4: It's pretty hard for me to judge anything, just with
Speaker 4: the sort of cleaning I've done in the past. But
Speaker 4: you know, you've got to realize that most people are
Speaker 4: just too busy to keep on top of their house
Speaker 4: and it's just it's just we're humans at the end
Speaker 4: of the day.
Speaker 2: Jason. Now I'm going to throw Clint under here.
Speaker 6: Clint no clean at a cleaner who he came home
Speaker 6: one day and found her nude in the shower, and
Speaker 6: she said, that's how she cleans people showers.
Speaker 5: She gets it.
Speaker 6: I suggested that it's not normal to take your clothes
Speaker 6: off in someone's house to clean their shower. Do your
Speaker 6: cleaners do that?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I would be inclined to agree that that's not normal.
Speaker 2: But we think she was just having a shower.
Speaker 1: It has happened before, has it?
Speaker 4: Has it happened before? Yeah? Not in my experience. I mean, this.
Speaker 1: Actually happened, and she said she she did a better
Speaker 1: job when she was sure.
Speaker 4: You hired a cleaner.
Speaker 5: To shame Jason.
Speaker 2: Well done, Jason.
Speaker 6: That note we continue tarnishing Clint's reputation and welcome to
Speaker 6: the club.
Speaker 1: Jason, Jason, what's your favorite cleaning product? My favorite?
Speaker 5: What's your favorite? To pick one?
Speaker 4: Just what is every house market or just anywhere?
Speaker 5: What does every house.
Speaker 2: Need something we can all get our hands on.
Speaker 4: Okay, well, there's this really good Australian brand called King's,
Speaker 4: so King's Cleaning Coat. I use a lot of their stuff.
Speaker 4: Actually I use their glass and multi surface cleaner, their
Speaker 4: cream cleanser, and stain the steel conditioner and pretty much
Speaker 4: if you get those three products, you can clean the
Speaker 4: whole house top to bottom.
Speaker 2: King's Cleaning. Is that your business? Jason?
Speaker 4: No, I do know the owners. I don't get any
Speaker 4: kickback from it, but it's their great products and we
Speaker 4: use it in the business.
Speaker 6: How often are people really emptying their toasters cleaning.
Speaker 2: Their toasters up? Do you know that you're supposed to
Speaker 2: do that, like after every second use or something? No, look,
Speaker 2: Jason's nodding.
Speaker 4: We tell our cleaners to do it every time they
Speaker 4: go into someone's house, and every time we open it
Speaker 4: up and it's it's full of crumbs. So yeah, I
Speaker 4: don't think people are doing it every week.
Speaker 5: Would be good, I'd have a Baker's de Lots in
Speaker 5: the bottom of my mind.
Speaker 3: The tray out we are doing. The experts Jason Chipway
Speaker 3: is our expert this morning in cleaning. Hey Jas, thanks
Speaker 3: for a really good insight in something we all have
Speaker 3: to deal with every single week.
Speaker 5: Mate.
Speaker 4: Yeah, thanks for the chat guys,
