Price & Budget
Every First Visit can take longer than a regular visit due the fact we don't know your home yet, and how it's been maintained. It also depends on conditions, size, and your expectations. The quote is only an estimate of time and price, and could take less time or more time, which means the final cost is subject to change to more or less than the initial quote.
You are charged accordingly with time spent, if more or less time from arrival to departure.
If we need more time than the estimated cost, we’ll contact you to discuss additional time, cost or priorities.
If you have a budget, let us know ASAP and we'll discuss the priorities in advance with you, and we'll do the best we can with the time we have. Cleaning takes time, we cannot guarantee the job will be 100% complete and up to your expectations if you have a budget, but we’ll do the best we can with the time we have.
The Service
If your home requires more work and more hours than initially planned, we’ll discuss with you, and if we have available we’ll send extra help from other teams. In some cases, when the schedule is very busy, if we are not able to complete the job on the same day due an extended amount of hours not planned in advance, we’ll reschedule a return to the next day.
Each team is responsible to check their job before they leave the property. We have a cleaning checklist specific for each type of service, and we use Company Cam App to photograph each job (Before & After) to guarantee what was delivered to you. The before & after pictures & checklist are used for the quality, training and safety purposes of each job.
If you are at the property by the time we complete the service, please check everything before the team leaves, and if there is anything missing let the team know right away so it can be fixed immediately. If you cannot be at the property by the time we complete the job, you have 24 hours to contact us in case of any concerns. If anything was missed, please send us pictures by email so we can compare with our checklist and photos taken once the job was completed. Note that we do not give discounts or reimbursements for service provided. If we made a mistake, or if you are not happy with the service, we’ll reschedule a return to fix the areas of concern.
Since cleaning is a very personal and human service, we realize that occasionally an area may not be cleaned to your satisfaction. If you are at the property by the time we complete the service, please check everything before the team leaves, and if there is anything missing let the team know right away so it can be fixed immediately. We do not offer any refunds. However, if you are not 100% satisfied with the quality of cleaning of any of the serviced areas and you contact us within 24 hours of your clean-up, we will reschedule a visit to the Premises to at no extra charge to re-clean the areas you have identified.
Clutter - The cleaning will be more satisfactory if our team does not have a great deal of clutter with which to contend. If the Premises are heavily cluttered this may affect the estimate that was provided and may result in a request for additional time.
To the Safety of Our Employees
They will not move anything heavier than 35 lbs. Should you require us to clean behind heavy furniture or appliances, please move them prior to our arrival to allow access to the target area.

Such hazardous materials include but are not limited to: items or areas containing any bodily fluids, excretions, needles, band substances and litter boxes. Our teams are advised to clean around the areas that contain such hazardous materials and in cases of excessive contamination, our team will vacate the area. If our team feels that their personal safety is in danger (someone in the home is intoxicated, vicious animal not contained, exposure to drugs or firearms, etc.), the team will leave the site of the services (the “Premises”) and you are still responsible for the full cost of the scheduled service. We will attempt to reach you by phone if this situation should arise.
