I know it's a very tempting to use a 1099 contractor, but you have no control over their work. All you could tell them is I need this clean on this day and ask them what their rate is. You can't tell them what you're paying them. You can't provide any supplies for them. You can't dictate how they should be cleaning. I just don't want to mess with trying to manage all that. Personally I think having a employee is a lot better than having a 1099 contractor. Unless you are a solo cleaner and you're using a contractor for last minute sickness or whatever. Or maybe if you're going on vacation.
