S&G Cleaning Offers Professional Services

Economic and Business Development Commission spotlights company's record of community service.

Shirley Perlinsky, owner of S&G Cleaning Services Corporation in Hillsborough, has been involved in the cleaning business her entire life. Initially inspired by her grandmother while growing up in a modest neighborhood in Brazil, her grandmother taught her that while they did not have the largest home, they most certainly had the cleanest.

Her grandmother taught her how to clean, and introduced her to the personal reward and satisfaction of having a sparkling home. After Perlinsky’s family moved to the U.S.in 1985, her mother ran a house cleaning business in North Jersey for many years. When her mother retired, Perlinsky assumed ownership of the business, and had the mindset from the very beginning to turn it into a corporation. She utilized her college background in marketing, and 10 years of professional experience in running a marketing research company to create a successful cleaning operation that continues to grow.   

“We are so proud of what we have created,” Perlinsky said, who is partnered with her husband, Gary. “We’re not just a cleaning lady—we are very different.”

“Our employees are wonderful and cleaning is their passion,” she said. “You can’t effectively clean homes if you don't love it!”

All of Perlinsky’s employees are thoroughly screened, trained and provided with a uniform. They receive special bonuses for providing exceptional service. Working at S&G isn’t about just coming to work—it’s about building relationships with each other and their clients. Just recently, Perlinsky treated all of her employees and their families to a trip at a water park, as it is part of her business philosophy that team building is very important.

Also important to Perlinsky is giving back to the local community. S&G is a member of Cleaning for a Reason, a foundation that provides cleaning services at no cost to women undergoing treatment for cancer. In addition, S&G is a member of Cleaning for Heroes, an organization that honors disabled veterans by providing complimentary cleaning services. In addition, S&G regularly extends a 15 percent discount to senior citizens and is involved with Habitat for Humanity.
S&G offers a very wide service area and is proud to offer environmentally safe products on all their jobs.
