For residential cleaning owners

Better enquiries
before you quote.

Almost Fire is for residential cleaning owners who lose time to missed calls, incomplete after-hours forms, and quote requests that need approval before booking.

Before / after

Before callback chasing. after guided intake.

The first Almost Fire surface is not trying to run the whole cleaning business. It gives the owner better information before deciding what happens next.

Setup path

Guided intake, one path first.

Start with one request path for your business: the jobs you want, the details you need, the requests that need review, and the follow-up that should happen next.

01
map

Map the jobs you actually want.

Suburbs, travel limits, recurring cleans, deep cleans, move-out work, and add-ons become the first fit rules.

02
fact_check

Capture quote-ready detail.

Rooms, bathrooms, pets, access notes, photos, preferred timing, and service type arrive before callback time is spent.

03
verified_user

Keep owner approval in the loop.

The first path marks quote-needed, out-of-area, or unusual requests for review instead of pretending everything can book itself.

04
tune

Tune the first request path.

Almost Fire works with you to refine the intake flow before you add more services, locations, or booking automation.

What gets captured

Quote context, not just contact details.

Almost Fire is useful when the cleaning owner already knows the difference between a good enquiry and a time sink. The guided setup turns that judgment into a repeatable intake path.

  • checkWhich fields make a request quote-ready for your business.
  • checkWhich requests need owner approval before a slot is offered.

Request setup review

Guided review, not a signup form.

Send enough context for a useful first review. If it looks like a fit, the next step is a guided setup conversation around one cleaning request path.

You will not receive an instant quote or automated booking from this form. Almost Fire will reply after reviewing your business and request path.

Almost Fire reviews each request before setup is offered.

FAQ

Questions to settle before the call.

Is this live booking automation?add

No. Almost Fire keeps owner approval in the loop and starts with one guided enquiry path before any booking automation is offered.

Does it replace my cleaning software?add

No. The first path focuses on request quality before a lead reaches the tools and habits you already use.

What happens after I request a review?add

Almost Fire reviews whether your cleaning business is a fit for guided setup around one request path.

Are terms public?add

No. Commercial terms are discussed after fit review because setup depends on your business, request path, and operating rules.

Guided cleaning intake

Give every good enquiry enough detail to approve.

Almost Fire helps residential cleaning operators set up one clear enquiry path: capture the right job details, keep owner approval in the loop, and decide the next follow-up with more context.
