Do I need to be home while my house is being cleaned?

No, but it is certainly your preference. Most of our customers aren’t home but the vast majority purchase a lockbox or trust us with alarm code, garage code, or let us know the day before cleaning how we will have access to enter the house.

What time does UNIQUE CLEANING COMPANY LLC clean?

We clean Monday through Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. However, if the customer is unable to accommodate a cleaning during the week, we can clean on the weekend. We will do our best to schedule your cleaning on your preferred day and time.

What about my pets?

We love our clients‘ pets! However, for their own safety and the safety of our cleaners, please put them in a pet carrier or secure area of the home like the laundry room or garage. You can leave any special instructions concerning pets on your work order.

Do I need to tip my cleaning technician?

It’s not expected, but it is greatly appreciated for work well done. We have found it common for clients to tip at the end of each cleaning or make a larger tip at the end of the year. Please make sure money left as a tip is marked as such. Tips may also be added to your payment. Please note that 100% of the tips go directly to the cleaning technicians performing the job.

Are you bonded and insured?

Most independent maid services are not insured, which makes homeowners liable. UNIQUE CLEANING COMPANY LLC offers a worry-free home cleaning service that is fully insured, licensed, and bonded for your protection and ours.

What if I need to cancel my appointment?

Give us 24 business hours’ notice of your change in plans and we will promptly reschedule or cancel your cleaning. Please note we are not open on the weekends. If you need to make changes to a cleaning scheduled on Monday, please contact us the Friday before.

Who does UNIQUE CLEANING COMPANY LLC hire to clean my home?

We only pick the best! Our cleaning technicians are experienced, trained, careful, reliable, and honest employees. We keep a close eye on our staff, and if they don’t love their job and care deeply about their performance, they don’t stick around. Our average employee tenure is 1 to 4 years, and our clients benefit from our unusually low turnover. We are proud of the culture we have built, and our employees are proud to be a part of our team.

Can I provide special instructions for my cleaning technician?

We encourage it! Special instructions will enhance the cleaning experience you receive. However, it is very important you communicate any special instructions directly to the office so that we can place them in the permanent notes section of your file. This makes your notes available to any cleaning technician that may clean your home in the future, as well as a reminder for your regular cleaning technician.

Will you send the same cleaning technician each time?

We make our best efforts to send the same cleaning technicians each time because it is the most beneficial for both the clients and our staff. However, we are managing both our staff and clients’ needs, which are constantly in flux, and it is not always possible to do so. If you are sent as an alternate cleaning technician, they will have had access to detailed information about your cleaning preferences to ensure consistency of our services.

How do I pay for my cleaning service?

Payments are due at the time of service. We will charge by Zelle or Venmo or card on
file after your cleaning has been completed.

We observe the following holidays:
New Year’s Day
Memorial Day
Independence Day
Labor Day
Thanksgiving Day
Christmas Day
If a routine cleaning falls on one of these holidays, we will contact you in advance to
reschedule your cleaning. Otherwise, unless you cancel service, you can expect us
to arrive as scheduled.

What should I do if someone in my house is sick on the same day that the cleaning is scheduled?

The health and safety of our clients and employees is of the utmost importance to us. If your family is experiencing illness, please notify us immediately so we can reschedule your appointment. If advance notice is not possible, please have symptomatic family members move to areas away from the cleaning staff. Our cleaning technicians will wear a mask and gloves and will take extra precautions for their health. As an additional note, we ask that each bathroom in your home has its own toilet brush to prevent cross contamination.
