Questions
Everything people ask before they book.
Plain answers, grouped by topic. If yours is missing, text or call and a person will answer.
Booking
How do I get a quote?
Use the quote form on this site or text us. Tell us the type of cleaning, bedrooms and bathrooms, and a preferred date. You will get a written quote, usually the same business day, and nothing is booked until you approve it.
How far in advance should I book?
Recurring clients hold a standing slot. For one-time, deep, and move cleans, a week of notice is ideal. Same-week is often possible, and we will tell you what is open when you ask.
Do I need to be home?
No. Most clients are not. We can work with a key, a lockbox, a smart lock, or a gate code, and we treat access details as confidential. If you would rather be home for the first visit, that is welcome too.
Pricing
How is pricing determined?
By the type of cleaning, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the condition of the home, and any add-ons. Recurring plans are priced lower per visit. You receive the price in writing before we arrive, and it does not change on the day unless you add something.
Are your prices flat or hourly?
Standard, deep, and move cleans are flat-rate for the scope quoted. Hourly booking is available for partial cleans or task lists, with a three-hour minimum.
Is gratuity expected?
Never expected, always appreciated, and it goes entirely to your housekeeper. You can add it to your card payment or leave cash.
Our team
Are your housekeepers insured and background-checked?
Yes. Every housekeeper is an employee, not a contractor, has passed a background check, and is covered by our general liability and workers compensation insurance. A certificate of insurance is available on request.
Will I have the same housekeeper each visit?
On recurring plans, yes, whenever possible. Consistency is the point. If your housekeeper is out, we send another member of the team with your home notes and let you know in advance.
Do you bring your own supplies?
Yes, including vacuums with HEPA filtration, microfiber, and professional products that are safe for stone, wood, and sealed surfaces. If you prefer a specific product for a surface, leave it out for us.
On the day
What should I do before the visit?
A quick pick-up of clothes, dishes, and toys lets us spend the whole visit cleaning. Leave fresh linens on any bed you would like changed. Secure pets that are nervous around new people.
What is not included in a cleaning?
Every checklist on this site has a "not included" section. In short: we do not clean walls and ceilings beyond spot-cleaning, exterior windows, chandeliers or delicate art, biohazards, or anything requiring more than a two-step ladder, and we do not move heavy furniture.
Are your products safe for children and pets?
Yes. Our everyday products are low-odor and free of bleach and ammonia. We use stronger disinfectants only where they are needed, such as toilets, and we tell you where.
Policies
What if I am not happy with something?
Tell us within 24 hours and we return to re-clean the area at no charge. It is a simple promise and we keep it. If we broke something, we will tell you before you find it and make it right.
What is your cancellation policy?
Reschedule or cancel with at least 24 hours notice at no charge. Cancellations inside 24 hours, or lockouts, carry a fee because a housekeeper has lost most of a day. Recurring plans can be paused any time.
How do I pay?
Card on file, charged after the visit is complete, or by invoice for commercial accounts. We do not ask for payment before the work is done.
