  • It’s been eighteen years in business.

    by Luis Chaparro

    Almost two decades ago, we had an idea to create a company that would make a difference in the world. We knew we wanted to help people, and we knew we wanted to do it through the power of cleaning. But we didn't know how to make it happen. We were blessed with a fantastic team of cleaners who believed in our vision and helped…

    Why should you hire a green cleaning company?

    by Gmaids

    Did you know that CONVENTIONAL cleaning products are as bad for you as cigarettes? That's right—you might not even realize it, but the household cleaner you use to scrub the bathroom could be causing asthma and allergies.  The good news is that there are plenty of options for safer cleaning products that can help you get the job done without harming your health.

  • How to Prevent Water Leaks at Home

    by Gmaids

    Friends, we are living in the aftermath of a season of inclement weather that has been causing damage and emergencies in many of our homes, and one of the most common is a broken water pipe. Due to low temperatures, the water begins to freeze, increasing in volume, which pipelines do not resist and burst. Our cleaning team is trained on how to react if…

  • [Local Services by Google] Gmaids and the community are connected!

    by Gmaids

    When we started Gmaids 15 years ago, we never imagined that Google would choose us to appear in one of their videos. A year ago, they contacted us and gave us the great news that Gmaids would be part of the "Local Services by Google" videos for being a small business and being in contact with our customers digitally. This was unexpected but incredible news,…

The Benefits of De-Owning Stuff

by Gmaids

Photo by Henry & Co on Unsplash. We've all been there. First, you walk into your home and are immediately overwhelmed by the amount of stuff you have. Then, whenever you turn around, you buy more things and need help to keep up with the mess.  Sound familiar? If so, don't worry; you're not alone. In fact, according to a recent study, the average American home has 300,000 items in it!  That's a lot of stuff to keep track of. Seven years ago, we began de-owning our excess, making a world of difference.  Since then, we've decluttered our home, simplifying my life.  Let me tell you; it has been amazing! Not only do I have more time for family and important stuff, but I also don't have the stress of constantly trying to keep up with our stuff.  If you're feeling overwhelmed by your belongings, also consider de-owning.  Fortunately, there is a way to take control of your stuff and your life.  Here are some tips that helped me on…
