"Finally, a clean home that doesn't trigger my sensitivities."
I'm sensitive to strong smells and most cleaning products. Sage Essence left my home spotless with absolutely no chemical odor. I could actually breathe afterward.

"The most thorough clean we've ever had."
Booking was simple, the team arrived right on time, and the attention to detail was unreal. Knowing everything they use is non-toxic gives me real peace of mind with the kids.

"You can tell they actually care."
Warm, professional, and meticulous. Our home felt genuinely fresh, not masked with fragrance. We've already booked them on a recurring schedule.

"Worth every penny for the peace of mind."
With a new baby in the house we were nervous about what gets used on the floors and surfaces. Sage Essence was exactly what we needed: safe, gentle, and genuinely effective.

The Sage Essence Difference
Cleaning designed around your health.
Most cleaning leaves something behind. Residue, fumes, the sharp smell of chemicals you can't see, lingering in the air your children breathe, on the surfaces your pets touch, in what your skin contacts every day.
"What would a cleaning service look like if it were designed for the health of the home, not just its appearance?"
Our products are formulated from six raw plant-based and mineral ingredients, combined in specific ratios for each surface and task. For sanitization, we use hypochlorous acid, the same antimicrobial compound your immune system produces. It leaves no residue and no fragrance, because there's no fragrance to begin with.
The result isn't a home that smells "clean." It's a home that is.

What's Really In The Bottle
The same job. A different chemistry.
Most cleaning companies in Austin use what you'd find at any big-box store. Here's the line-by-line difference between conventional cleaning and the Sage Essence method.
| The Job | Conventional Cleaning | Sage Essence |
|---|---|---|
| Surfactant | Synthetic detergents, often petroleum-derived | Professional-grade plant-based castile soap (Sal Suds) |
| Disinfection | Quaternary ammonium ("quats"), chlorine bleach | Hypochlorous acid, the antimicrobial your immune system makes |
| Hard water & grime | Phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid | Food-grade citric acid + sodium carbonate |
| Whitening & odor | Chlorine bleach, synthetic fragrance to mask | 3% hydrogen peroxide, breaks down to oxygen + water |
| Polish & shine | Silicone-based aerosols, ammonia | 91% isopropyl alcohol on microfiber & food-grade mineral oil for wood |
| Fragrance | Synthetic blends often containing phthalates | None. By design. |
| Vacuum filtration | Standard household-grade filters | HEPA, captures particles to 0.3 microns |
Studies in respected journals link routine exposure to common cleaning chemicals with asthma in adults and respiratory irritation in children, and the fumes linger in the air your pets breathe, too. We built Sage Essence around a different answer.
