Move-out day. Guests tomorrow. A flat that has slipped for weeks. Someone searches for a cleaner near them, opens your site, and decides in a few seconds whether they can book without guessing. Soft mop photos and a form buried under three menus do not count. They open the next firm that already says what to do next.
A cleaning service website is not a brochure for people who already know your van. It is the front desk when the keys have to change hands.
That first screen has to answer:
- What you do — end-of-tenancy and deep cleans, regular home or office visits, or both — in the first sentence.
- The area you cover, named towns, not “we serve the region”.
- How to reach you now: a number or short form that works on a phone, and how fast you usually reply.
- Hours and lead time — same-week possible or not, weekends if you work them — and what happens when you are fully booked.
- A little proof you are real — your name, the town, a job from this season, not a stock sparkling sink.
You do not need a long story about every product. You need a page that lets someone with a deadline finish the booking without hunting.
If your current site still makes them hunt for that, write to hello@merkwell.com. Say what a first cleaning enquiry must answer on the first screen. We can put the desk where they can find it.
