Most people have cleaning checklists.
We have a manifesto.

Because at Mackies, we don’t just train cleaners — we build cleaning professionals who know how to think, move, and deliver to Mackies standard.

Every cleaner who joins our team goes through The House of How — our internal training system that turns “I’ve done cleaning before” into “I’ve mastered the Mackies Method.”

Here’s a peek behind the scenes — 10 rules that keep our cleans sharp, consistent, and proudly Mackies.

1. We Clean Like It’s Ours

If we wouldn’t walk into our own house and call it done, it’s not done.
Pride is part of the job description.

2. Systems Beat Speed

Fast isn’t the goal — flow is.
Our system means no wasted steps, no “what next?”, and no redoing work.
Efficiency is a byproduct of good systems.

3. One Room. One Mission.

We don’t jump rooms or multitask chaos.
We finish a room completely — top to bottom, left to right, then close the door with satisfaction.

“Start strong. Finish stronger.”

4. The Two-Cloth Rule

One wet. One dry. Always.
Cross-contamination is the enemy, and our cloths know their boundaries.

5. The Hoover Comes First

Always.
It’s not a debate, it’s a commandment.
We hoover before we dust because gravity is real — and we respect it.

6. We Work in Rhythm, Not Noise

You’ll never hear us shouting across rooms or arguing over jobs.
Each cleaner knows their zone and flow — it’s like choreography, just with microfibre.

7. The Product Test Rule

If you don’t know it, don’t spray it.
We read labels, test small, and treat every surface like it matters — because it does.

8. We Don’t Cut Corners — We Clean Them

It’s literal and philosophical.
Corners hold dust, cobwebs, and credibility.
Ours are spotless.

9. No Drama, Just Detail

We don’t need theatrics to prove we’re good — the results speak louder than our playlists.
Calm, consistent, professional — always.

10. The Mackies Finish

Our final rule.
It’s not about the products, or the hours, or even the process.
It’s about that last look — the moment we stand in silence, scan the room, and know it’s right.

That’s when it becomes a Mackies Clean.

Why We Built The House of How

Because great results don’t come from guesswork — they come from clarity.
We wanted a space where every cleaner could learn our method, feel confident in their work, and know exactly what “done properly” means.

The House of How is where the Mackies culture lives — no shortcuts, no confusion, no stress.
Just high standards, clear systems, and pride in the process.
