A new cleaning business Hot Shot Maids is aiming to wipe the floor with the competition in Carlisle.

Hot Shot Maids is the brainchild of budding local entrepreneur Holly Marshall from Carlisle who started her business in September. 

The domestic cleaning business, which offers standard and deep cleaning, was the product of Holly's experience as a hotel cleaner and a desire to make a living doing something she loves. 

"I started cleaning at a local hotel as a housekeeper as a temporary job until I decided on the job I wanted for my future but little did I know I would love it and it would turn into my future," Holly said.

"I offer three main services which are a standard clean, a deep clean, and a mini deep clean which is a deep clean of kitchens and bathrooms, however, I can do fridges, ovens, washing, etc.

"If my clients ask for something they get it. "

For Holly, what will set Hot Shot Maids apart from the competition is her dedication to her clients, fulfilling their needs, and her newfound love for her craft.

She said: "I think Hot Shot Maids is one of the best cleaning businesses because I listen to what my clients want and try to understand them like family rather than part of my job.

"I try to be flexible with my clients and friendly so they are comfortable with me being in their house. 

"If you're considering having a cleaner but unsure who, I would personally go for someone who looks at their job like a hobby over someone who's doing it to make money.

"As the owner of Hot Shot Maids, I found a job I love so I don't feel like I'm working a day in my life.

"I want everyone I clean for to be able to see in my work how much pride I take in it and for me to see the happiness they have when they can see a difference in their home."

Despite being at the start of her business journey, Holly has lofty ambitions for Hot Shots Maids and aims to make it one of the 'best' cleaning services in the county.

She said: "The goals I have for my business, Hot Shot Maids, is firstly to make everyone I clean for as happy as they can be in not only how clean their home is but also who their cleaner is.

"I also want to eventually have multiple people working with me and to grow my business into one of the best."
