FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE LOCAL CLEANING COMPANY MAKING A DIFFERENCE |
Sturbridge, MA – August 1, 2022 – TLC Home Services, LLC has partnered with Cleaning for a Reason, a nonprofit providing free home cleaning to cancer patients. The company has a history of performing charitable cleanings and now wants to extend their reach to helping cancer patients in the community.
“My father passed away at the age of 54 with bone cancer and my mom just had breast cancer surgery in mid-July of this year,” said Tammie Chenevert, owner and president of TLC Home Services. “Mom is doing fine, but there are many doctor follow-ups and treatments to endure. I have a big heart for the elderly and cancer patients and I always look for opportunities to lessen the burden by helping with what I know we can do well. With this partnership, we hope to help those cancer patients who are recovering from surgery, in active treatment, or in hospice to focus on their health and spending valuable time with loved ones.”

About TLC Home Services, LLC
TLC Home Services is a woman-owned company that has been cleaning homes and businesses with 100% satisfaction for the past 15 years. The company serves a variety of homes, offices, AirBnBs, campsites, and other spaces for clients.
Originally homeschooling her two children, owner Tammie Chenevert was caring for her own home and family. In 2006, when her husband’s health forced him out of a job, Chenevert started cleaning jobs to help provide for her family. She soon realized that in order to keep paying her family’s bills, she would have to expand into a cleaning business. Chenevert met with a financial advisor at Clark University and decided to officially start her cleaning company, TLC Home Services, LLC in 2007. Six months after launching, the recession hit. Chenevert determined that “failure was not an option,” so she threw all her profits into advertising and grew her company while other cleaning companies were going out of business.
Fifteen years later, Chenevert has grown the company on the core values of exceptional customer service, honesty, and respect. Chenevert has always had a heart for giving back and alongside her staff has performed donated cleanings for local churches, retreat sites, and households in need.
“Our core values define who we are as a company,” said Tammie Chenevert. “They have brought us to where we are today and will carry us into the future. We are a small business with a big heart.”
TLC Home Services has earned Best Cleaning Service 2022 and Best Window Cleaning Service 2018. The company is also registered with S.A.M.gov to work on government jobs. To learn more about this company, go tlchomeservicesllc.com.
