REFERRAL AGENCIES

Referral agencies are just as the name implies. They are agencies that refer “Independent Contractors” to customers for different services. One of the main services is House Cleaning. Referral agencies are not employers of these individuals. Referral agencies cannot direct, train or control these individual’s work in any way. Referral agencies do not pay any employment taxes on these individuals. The customer MAY be liable for paying employment taxes if they pay wages over certain tax thresholds in your home. By not paying taxes or insurance, referral agencies can undercut actual employer based cleaning companies’ pricing. A Perfect Shine pays all employment taxes, training, insurance, company vehicles, uniforms, gas, etc… The main differences you will find between a referral agency and a company like A Perfect Shine is in quality and dependability.

A Perfect Shine puts all its employees through a thorough training program. Our employees then work along side experienced cleaners to gain more insight and knowledge into all aspects of cleaning. When you hire a person from a referral agency you have no idea if they have had any training. Remember, the agency is NOT allowed to train, direct or control these individuals. If they do in anyway, they become employers and are responsible for paying all the taxes mentioned above. Please find laws on referral agencies operating in California below. We offer this information only to allow the customer the opportunity to make an informed decision when looking for cleaning companies and comparing rates. You may not always be comparing apples with apples and oranges with oranges when you call two different cleaning companies. Make sure to ask if they are a referral agency. They are supposed to divulge this information in a my printed advertising and they must let you know when you call for pricing. Good luck in your search and we hope to gain your business.
