Booking & Scheduling
How do I book?
Do I need to be home?
No, you do not need to be home for the cleaning. During the online booking process, you can provide secure entry instructions (such as a key code, lockbox location, instructions to pick up a key from the leasing office, or leaving a key under the mat).
Can I reschedule or skip?
Yes, you can easily reschedule, skip, or cancel your cleaning through your online customer portal. Cancellation Policy: To avoid penalties, please make modifications or cancellations at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled cleaning. If you cancel or reschedule after the cleaner has already left for your home, a $50 cancellation fee will be charged to compensate the cleaner for their time and travel.

Detailed deep cleaning tasks (like scrubbing tile grout or wiping down baseboards) and move-in/move-out tasks (like cleaning inside cabinets, drawers, the refrigerator, the oven, wiping blinds, or wiping walls) are not included in a standard clean but can be selected as add-ons or separate service types during booking.
Do you bring supplies?
Yes, our cleaners bring all of their own professional cleaning supplies and equipment (including vacuums, mops, microfiber cloths, and cleaning products) needed to complete the cleaning. You do not need to provide anything.
What won't you clean?
For safety and quality control reasons, we do not clean:
- Exterior windows
- Walls (unless it is a Move-In/Move-Out clean, where walls are dusted/wiped)
- Unfinished basements or attics
- Biohazards, animal waste, or pest infestations
- Excessive clutter that prevents normal cleaning
- Heavy lifting (cleaners will not move furniture heavier than 35 lbs)
Pricing & Payment
How does flat-rate pricing work?
We offer honest, upfront flat-rate pricing based on the size of your home (number of bedrooms and bathrooms) and the service level you choose (Standard, Deep, or Move-In/Move-Out). This eliminates the need for an in-home walkthrough or surprise hourly bills.
NOTE
Our flat rates are based on standard time estimates (e.g., approximately 60 minutes per bedroom and 30 minutes per bathroom). If a home is in a condition that requires significantly more time than normal (e.g., extreme buildup), we will contact you to discuss an hourly rate adjustment before proceeding.
When am I charged?
Yes! We offer discounts for recurring cleanings to help keep your home consistently fresh:
- Weekly: Save 20%
- Bi-weekly: Save 15%
- Monthly: Save 10% We also run introductory promotions, such as $20 off your first clean when you sign up for a recurring service.
Satisfaction
What if I'm not happy? / How does the guarantee work?
Your satisfaction is our top priority. We back our services with a 24-hour re-clean guarantee. If any area of your clean was not completed to your satisfaction, simply contact us within 24 hours of your service, and we will send a cleaner back to reclean those specific areas at no additional cost to you.
Tipping?
Tipping is entirely optional but always appreciated by our cleaners! If you choose to tip, 100% of the tip goes directly to your cleaner. You can tip them in cash or add a tip to your card through your online customer portal after the clean is complete.
Products & Pets
Are products pet/kid safe?
Eco-friendly options?
Pet policy?
We love pets! To ensure the safety of both your pets and our cleaners, we ask that you secure aggressive, highly anxious, or very active pets in a separate room or crate while the cleaning is taking place. You can also specify any pet-related instructions in your booking notes.
