Why time tracking matters for cleaning professionals

Whether you clean private homes or office spaces, tracking your time helps you:

  • Prove when and where you’ve worked

  • Avoid double bookings and missed jobs

  • Keep your schedule balanced across clients

  • Bill accurately and transparently

  • Build long-term trust with customers

With a clear overview of your work history, you can quickly answer questions like “When did you last clean the Johnson office?” — without digging through paper notes or text messages.



What to track for each cleaning job

A simple digital log can make a huge difference. For each job, track:


Field

Example

Client name

“Green Office Solutions”

Location / address

Main Street 12, Copenhagen

Date and time

08 Oct 2025, 10:00–12:00

Tasks completed

Floors, windows, kitchen

Notes / photos

Added extra kitchen cleaning

Total hours

2.0

Price or rate

2 hrs × 250 DKK = 500 DKK


This kind of structure makes it easy to review, invoice, and document every visit.



Using Nureti to track cleaning work

Nureti helps you track time, tasks, and locations — all in one simple calendar-based dashboard.


For cleaning professionals, this means:

  • Log each client visit directly from your phone

  • Add notes like “extra bathroom cleaning”

  • Track hours per client or location

  • Generate reports for billing and documentation

  • See your weekly overview at a glance


No more guessing which houses you’ve visited — it’s all stored, organized, and exportable.



Pro tips for staying organized

  1. Set up repeating jobs for regular clients (e.g., every Tuesday at 9:00).

  2. Add short notes right after finishing a job.

  3. Color-code clients in your calendar view for easy overview.

  4. Review your weekly summary to ensure you didn’t miss anyone.

  5. Use reports when creating invoices — your logged hours become billable time automatically.



Common mistakes to avoid

  • Forgetting to log time right after finishing a job

  • Mixing personal and work tasks in the same calendar

  • Losing track of travel time between clients

  • Not backing up or exporting your records

  • Relying solely on memory


Professionalism starts with consistency — and a reliable time tracking system keeps you ahead.
