Our Story

The Pink Wand has been serving the city of Airdrie, Alberta and areas since 2008 and we have grown steadily in both the commercial and residential markets. Our goal is to provide best-in-class service, making worker safety and work-alone legislation a priority, and ensuring our clients can take comfort knowing that we carry all the necessary insurance and bonding. We take immense pride in our accomplishments as an award-winning company that has also been featured in the Financial Post.

Since its early beginnings with Jacqui Jepson as the sole owner/operator, The Pink Wand Cleaning Services has experienced significant and ongoing growth. Our operation consists of over 40 employees with a client base exceeding 600 in over 10 different locations. The Pink Wand is proud to continue leading in its industry for both client and employee retention, and we are very excited to launch our franchise business model in 2019 to further evolve its growth and success

We love being a part of our business community and living into our ‘Shine Up Our Community’ philosophy by helping others. The Pink Wand Cleaning Services takes immense pride giving the gift of clean to those who need us most. We also actively support various community causes in the areas we serve, and host our very own homegrown “Clean For A Cause” charity.
We strive to deliver the best care and service in a consistent way to our client’s homes and businesses. We diligently coordinate working schedules to maintain the same core employees on the same properties as much as possible, to help ensure they perform at their best on the home or business they are most familiar with.

“The achievement I take the most pride in is having created a company that embraces a work/life balance for its employees that contributes to our high employee retention, while building a brand that reflects our core values and strives to deliver best in class service to meet our client’s needs.”

Airdrie Headquarters of Pink Wand

The Pink Wand Cleaning Service has evolved from a one-person service into an operation with over 40 employees. Low staff turnover can be attributed to some of our core values believing that happy staff transition into happy customers. It is our belief that this produces a new shining edge, flair, and look to an industry that generally has very high turnover and a not so shiny reputation. We reduce turnover by offering our staff flexible hours and incentives when targets are met. Growth has allowed us to promote former cleaners into administrative staff who can walk the talk and address customers concerns by applying effective corrective actions. We believe our strong business model and success will foster our plans to move forward with franchising The Pink Wand; our next layer of growth. This is not an easy task and we have implemented a new high tech database system custom built for our franchise model to ensure consistency with process and best practices. We continue to support a number of local community causes as we believe in supporting the community we live in. These are a few of our strengths and we are thankful for the recognition from a prominent print institution such as The Financial Post who feature a story on us.

Cleaning Tip

Use a magic eraser, hot water and Pinesol purple (smells best) to scrub your kitchen sink. Toss the drain plugs in the dishwasher for a cycle and voila! A Pink Wand approved sparkling clean sink!
