Cancellation & rescheduling
You can cancel or reschedule free of charge up to 24 hours before your visit. Use the link in your confirmation or reminder email.
Later than that, 50% of the visit price is charged, because that time was held for you and I can rarely fill it on short notice.
Illness, family emergencies and bad weather happen. Tell me, and I'll use my judgment kindly.
Lockouts & no-shows
If I arrive and can't get in, I'll call and text you and wait up to 20 minutes. If we can't sort it out, it counts as a lockout and
100% of the visit is charged. The same applies if a visit isn't cancelled and nobody is reachable.
Please double-check door codes and lockbox details when you book.
Payment
When you book, your card is saved securely with Stripe. Nothing is charged until after the clean is done. Then the card is charged the price you were shown, and a receipt is emailed to you.
If a payment fails, I'll email you a secure link to pay. Please settle it promptly, and I may pause future visits until it's resolved.
I never see or store your full card number.
Tipping
Tips are always appreciated and never expected. If you'd like to leave one, there's a link in the receipt email.
If I missed a spot
If I miss something, tell me within 24 hours of the visit and I'll come back and fix it, free. Send a quick photo or a note about what I missed. The fix covers what was included in your original booking.
Your home
Pets
Pets are welcome. If an animal is anxious or likely to bolt, please secure them in a room or crate. Heavy pet hair adds a bit of time and is priced in when you book. Tell me about allergies.
Supplies
I bring everything, including a HEPA vacuum. If you prefer your own products, or fragrance-free, just tell me.
Tidying
Please clear clutter and put away valuables and papers from surfaces, so I can spend my time cleaning instead of organizing.
Safety
I have the right to leave, and still charge for the visit, if the home is unsafe: for example an infestation, an aggressive animal, or harassment. I'll tell you why.
Damage
If something breaks, I'll tell you right away. We'll sort it out together, and I'll make it right.
Photos & privacy
I may take before-and-after photos to document a problem or damage. I won't post any photo of your home without your written okay. See the privacy policy.
Recurring plans
Recurring plans have no contract. You can pause, skip or cancel any time with the link in your booking emails. The usual 24-hour notice applies to any single visit.
What's not included
- Exterior windows and screens
- Biohazards: blood, bodily fluids, hoarding, mold remediation, sewage or pest infestations
- Moving heavy furniture, or lifting anything unsafe
- Bulk wall washing, ceilings, and ladder work above a safe reach
- Outdoor areas such as patios, garages and yards
- Laundry and dishes beyond what you add on
- Garbage removal beyond taking out the bags
- Hazardous chemicals, or products I don't have safety information for
- Anything that needs a licensed trade, such as appliance repair or carpet shampooing
