About Us

A cleaning company that understands the importance of using the right product for the right job.

Our Team

The Cleaning Institute has been serving Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts since 1984. We’re skilled in disaster response, emergency cleaning, and specialty services such as mold testing, air duct cleaning, odor removal, and carpet cleaning. We keep up with the latest technology, standards, and environmentally friendly products. Most importantly, we constantly evaluate the cleaning products and equipment we use to ensure our services are as effective as possible. At The Cleaning Institute, authoritative knowledge of cleaning products is a central facet of our business.

Experts in Our Field

We aspire to achieving cleaning expertise, so we can tackle the toughest jobs for our customers. The Cleaning Institute has certifications from the IICRC (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification), RIA (Restoration Industry Association), EPA, and RSA (Restoration Science Academy) for disaster solutions, as well as on-ground experience in serious natural disasters. As part of our work, we often field cleaning product questions from our customers, and our staff has cultivated a passion for educating others. The Cleaning Institutes was born from a desire to share our product knowledge with you, so you can make the most informed purchase decisions possible.

How We Test

We stake our business on completing high quality cleanups, and having the best cleaning products to do so. This requires that we test our equipment regularly to ensure we’re up to date with the best stuff! Much of our testing and observation first occurs in the course of our onsite work at The Cleaning Institute Services, which creates the perfect proving ground for new products. Once we narrow down a few favorite candidates, we begin testing these products head-to-head in controlled environments to determine which is best. We know everyone has different cleaning needs, so we score products according to a variety of common factors and share those scores in our reviews. This allows you to select the product which makes the most sense for your household. The Cleaning Institute uses these products on tough industrial jobs and disaster cleanups, so you can be certain our recommendations are the result of serious consideration for the consumer.
