Our StoryMy name is Trisha Lake, and I’m the owner and founder of TLC Cleaning.
As a single mother taking on 18 college credits a semester in nursing school, I cleaned a few homes on the side to make ends meet. Of course, balancing school, motherhood, and work quickly became overwhelming.
One night around 2:00 AM, while studying, everything clicked: nursing is a wonderful profession, but it wasn’t my passion. At 3:00 AM, I called my dad, a very old-school Navy man, and told him I was leaving school to build this business. To my surprise, he said, “I support you.” TLC Cleaning was officially born in 2010.
What started as a small and humble operation has grown into a company with over 85 employees serving Fargo, Grand Forks, and Detroit Lakes. Even as we’ve grown, our values have stayed the same.
I don’t see our clients as dollar signs, but as pieces of a puzzle. The right fit is someone who values our work and understands that what we really give back is time for their family, their life, and peace of mind.
Having worked without benefits myself, I’ve always believed in taking care of our team. Today, we’re proud to say our cleaners have health insurance, company vehicles, 401(k) plans, and paid vacations. We see the team at TLC as family.
Giving back is also deeply important to me. Through Cleaning for a Reason, we offer free cleaning services to people undergoing cancer treatment so that they can focus on healing, not housework.
I’m incredibly proud of how far TLC Cleaning has come and grateful for the employees and clients who have made this journey possible.
