Hello FernF! I'm an Enrolled Agent with TurboTax Live. The need to issue a Form 1099-NEC depends on a few different variables. You'd issue a Form 1099-NEC to anyone that worked for you as an independent contractor and that the independent contractor was paid more than $600 aggregate for the year. If you hired a separate company to do your cleaning, landscaping and maintenance then that would NOT require a From 1099-NEC. If the people you hire are independent contractors and work directly for you and not another company and were paid more than $600 aggregate then YES you'd be required to issue a Form 1099-NEC. For more information on the Form 1099-NEC, please visit: https://blog.turbotax.intuit.com/self-employed/what-is-the-form-1099-nec-48549/
