Home Clean Heroes of Augusta

Fighting grime, supporting heroes

When it comes to keeping homes spotless, Home Clean Heroes of Augusta does more than just clean—they give back. “Home Clean Heroes is the only residential cleaning company that supports first responders with every home we clean,” says Antoinette White, Owner of Home Clean Heroes of Augusta. A portion of every cleaning fee goes to the Heroes First initiative, a partnership with the First Responders Children’s Foundation. These funds have provided scholarships for the 2024-2025 academic year, bereavement support, and mental health programs for first responders and their families. They even hold an annual contest to send a first responder to New York City for front-row views of the Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Since launching in April 2021, owners Tony and Antoinette White have worked tirelessly to grow their business. “When we first launched, I was cleaning alongside my team most days,” says Antoinette. Now, she manages three teams daily and is expanding services into Aiken.

One of the most rewarding parts of the job is seeing the impact their services have on customers. “Being able to save a stressed-out mom from one more thing on her to-do list, or helping someone who has been sick and unable to clean—it makes a difference,” Antoinette says. Home Clean Heroes also celebrates life’s milestones with their customers, whether it’s welcoming a new baby, sending a child off to college, or adopting a new pet. “Our mission is to defend our customers’ free time, so they can spend it on the things that matter most.”

Veterans like Tony and Antoinette bring a strong sense of leadership to franchise ownership. “Veterans are wired to follow systems and focus on accomplishing the mission,” Antoinette explains. “That’s crucial when leading a team.”

Home Clean Heroes takes extra care to ensure homes are cleaned thoroughly and safely. “We clean everything in the home, every time—not on a rotational basis,” says Antoinette. To prevent cross-contamination, cleaning cloths used in one home are never reused until laundered, and bathroom cloths never touch kitchen surfaces.

Before setting up recurring service, Antoinette personally meets with each customer to understand their needs. From there, the process is seamless, with text reminders and quality assurance checks ensuring top-tier service. Their “grime-fighters” undergo extensive training and background checks, ensuring homeowners receive trusted, high-quality cleaning every time.
