When you think about hiring a cleaning company, you might grimace. The average cleaning company doesn’t have the best reputation. The industry is known for pushing cleaners to work long hours for little pay.
But Well-Paid Maids isn’t your average cleaning company.
Here’s why:
- Well-Paid Maids pays cleaners fair, living wages starting at $23/hour. And the company routinely increases that number to keep up with the high cost of living. The median hourly wage for cleaners in the D.C. area is $17.03.
- Well-Paid Maids cleaners are W-2 employees. That means they get access to benefits like paid family and medical leave, workers’ comp and more. The average cleaning company misclassifies cleaners as contractors, which denies them access to these benefits.
- Well-Paid Maids gives cleaners a card to pay for commuting costs and supplies. The average cleaning company makes cleaners pay for their own transportation and supplies.
- Well-Paid Maids uses green cleaning products to ensure employees’ safety — and your own. The average cleaning company opts for harsh chemicals, which can be hazardous.
- Well-Paid Maids believes in giving cleaners flexibility — so much so the founder met with the U.S. Department of Labor to discuss the importance of workplace flexibility. The average cleaning company wants cleaners to complete as many jobs as possible to boost its bottom line.
Want to see the difference for yourself? Well-Paid Maids makes it easy to book your home cleaning online!

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
