Please refer to our calendar invitation we send via email for specific information regarding the day, time and frequency of your cleaning, as well as notes specific to your house cleaning service, including payment details.
ONE CLEANING PERSON ASSIGNED TO SCHEDULED HOMES UNLESS ADDITIONAL PEOPLE ARE REQUIRED OR REQUESTED
NORMAL HOURLY RATE IS $ PER (MAN HOUR) EXAMPLE: 1 CLEANER =$40 PER HOUR (INCLUDES MATERIALS), 2 PERSONS CLEANING = $80 PER HOUR, WHICH REDUCES THE NUMBER OF HOURS REQUIRED BUT PRICING STAYS THE SAME.
(IF YOU ELECT TO USE 2 CLEANING PERSONS (IF WE HAVE 2 AVAILABLE) THIS CUTS THE CLEANING TIME IN HALF) SO YOU PAY THE SAME AMOUNT FOR US TO FINISH THE JOB IN 1/2 THE TIME IT WOULD TAKE 1 PERSON. (THIS SCENARIO WOULD BE DEPENDENT ON NUMBER OF CLEANERS AVAILABLE).
Cleaning Times
Your cleaning service schedule is indicated on and included our private calendar event we created for you and is located on our private calendar . We do our best to be prompt and meet the cleaning time indicated, but traffic, other clients and unforeseen circumstances may affect our scheduled arrival time. Therefore Please understand that all appointment times are (approximate) arrival times. If your scheduled cleaner is going to be more than 30 minutes late, we will contact you. If no arrival time is indicated, then the cleaning will be done between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m, but we sometimes work later that this. Our cleaning people appreciate your flexibility. Please allow for an open time frame rather than an exact arrival time when possible..

What is Clutter?
Clutter is a mass of trash, items, nick-nacks, or personal items on the countertops, furniture and/or floors of your home. Clutter significantly inhibits our ability to perform our cleaning tasks efficiently and stay on schedule.
It is crucial that you pick up clutter from the rooms you want us to clean before we show up!
We are there to do our job at the highest standard that we can. There are many reasons we don’t clean around excessive clutter. It is easy for cleaning techs to miss areas; there is a significantly higher chance of us breaking something, and it usually takes two to three times longer for us to complete a cleaning when the area is highly cluttered, This can also affect customers that we have scheduled after your cleaning.
A TRANSPARENT POLICY THAT EVERYONE CAN UNDERSTAND
Cancellation policy
We require any cancellations (when necessary) to be communicated in writing by emailing us (at least) 72 hours in advance of scheduled service (if at all possible.) Bi-weekly scheduled service should communicated in writing the week before the scheduled service is scheduled to occur. This would give us the opportunity to schedule other appointments if you have the need to cancel your appointment. We appreciate your understanding. We reserve the right to charge a cancellation fee equal to half the estimated price or the deposited amount for late cancellations, cancellations with little or no notice or additional hourly rates for recurring maintenance cleaning cancellations and asses additional fees for the next scheduled cleaning or charge for a first time deep cleaning,
