Today we’d like to introduce you to Samantha Robbins.
Hi Samantha, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
My story is one of faith, resilience, recovery, and second chances. I’ve overcome addiction, domestic violence, personal struggles, and many obstacles that could have easily defined my future. Today, I am over three years sober, a proud single mother, and the owner and founder of 2nd Chance Cleaning LLC.
After years of working in hospital environmental services, industrial sanitation, and commercial cleaning operations, I decided to take my experience and build something of my own. In March 2026, I officially established my company in New Albany, Indiana.
The name 2nd Chance Cleaning LLC represents my personal journey. I know what it’s like to start over, rebuild your life, and work toward becoming someone you’re proud of.
Since starting my business, I’ve expanded into residential, commercial, and post-construction cleaning, taking on projects of all sizes while continuing to grow professionally and personally.
My goal is not only to build a successful company but also to create opportunities for others who deserve a second chance.
I am not ashamed of my past because it helped shape the woman I am today. I firmly believe that your past does not define your future, and with faith, determination, and hard work, it’s never too late to start over.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It has definitely not been a smooth road. I’ve faced addiction, domestic violence, financial hardships, personal setbacks, and the challenges of rebuilding my life as a single mother.
Starting a business from the ground up with limited resources has brought its own struggles, including financial uncertainty, balancing motherhood with entrepreneurship, and learning the business side of an industry I already knew well.
There have been moments of doubt, sleepless nights, and times when giving up would have been easier. But my faith, my daughter, and my determination to build a better future have kept me going.
I’ve learned that success isn’t about never falling down. It’s about having the courage to get back up, take accountability, learn from your mistakes, and keep moving forward. Every obstacle has taught me resilience, patience, and perseverance.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?

We specialize in residential and commercial cleaning, post-construction cleaning, move-in/move-out services, floor care, medical facility cleaning, and specialty cleaning, including nicotine residue and odor removal.
What sets us apart is our experience, attention to detail, versatility, and commitment to quality.

I’m especially proud of how quickly my company has grown, from residential cleaning to securing large commercial and post-construction contracts, building a team, and earning BBB Accreditation.
But 2nd Chance Cleaning LLC represents more than just cleaning. Our name reflects my belief in redemption, growth, and new beginnings. My long-term vision is to create meaningful employment opportunities for individuals who are committed to rebuilding their lives.
I want people to know that when they hire 2nd Chance Cleaning LLC, they’re supporting a small business built on faith, hard work, integrity, and the belief that everyone deserves an opportunity to succeed.
What makes you happy?
What makes me truly happy is my daughter, my faith, my sobriety, and the peace I’ve worked so hard to find. After everything I’ve experienced in life, I’ve learned that happiness isn’t about material possessions or having everything figured out. It’s about growth, gratitude, purpose, and being able to wake up every day knowing I’m becoming a better version of myself.
Watching my daughter grow, building a business from the ground up, and accomplishing things I once thought were impossible bring me genuine happiness. I also find joy in helping others and knowing that my story might inspire someone who feels like giving up.
Most importantly, happiness to me is having peace with my past, being proud of my progress, and looking forward to my future. I’m no longer just surviving. I’m finally learning how to truly live.
