Estimate by Phone
We value your time and strive to provide the most accurate estimate possible. To achieve this, we ask that you provide us with honest and accurate information about your home at the time of booking. As we do not assess each space before cleaning, the information provided must be as accurate as possible.
If we determine that your home requires more time than originally estimated, we will notify you immediately. At that time, we will extend our time at our square feet rate or prioritize your cleaning. Additional charges will only apply if the customer has been notified and approved them.
To ensure a smooth cleaning experience, please make sure you are available by phone or email during your service in case we need to contact you.
Note: Our first cleaning will be charged for square feet , after the first cleaning, it will be a flat rate. The square feet, for the first cleaning will be agreed upon at the time of the estimate with the customer, which can be in person, over the phone, or online.
Preparing for Your Cleaning
To ensure that we can focus on providing detailed and high-quality cleaning, we kindly ask that you pick up and tidy your home as much as possible before our arrival. While we appreciate your desire to help, please refrain from doing any cleaning before we arrive. Our estimated cleaning time is based on actual cleaning and does not include time for tidying. Clear floors ( picking up toys, shoes, clothes if it is possible for you ) is greatly appreciated and clean allows your cleaner to spend more time vacuuming and mopping your floors.
