Frequently Asked Questions

A standard clean is a quick, basic clean that includes:
Surface level dusting (most items are not moved, we dust around stuff like books, trinkets, etc)
Floors (vacuuming and/or mopping)
Bathrooms (countertops, mirrors, dusting, tub/shower, sink, toilet, floors)
Kitchen (countertops, microwave, spot wiping walls & cupboards, outside of appliances, sink, floors)
A deep clean is anything outside of the above. This can include but isn’t limited to:
Baseboards
Windows, tracks, blinds, sills
Appliance detailing
Cupboard and drawer exteriors
Light fixtures
Dishes
Laundry
Ceiling fans
High-touch points

Not a problem, we just need access to the house if you won’t be home at the time of your clean.
You can provide us with a door code, leave a back door unlocked or hide a key for us!
-
Any cancellations must be received within 24-hours of your scheduled clean or you may be subject to a cancellation fee.
-
We work in teams of two to four troops depending on how many troops we have available in any given day.
-
In fact, no. Despite our efforts to ensure the same team comes each time, we often have to deal with vacation requests, sick calls, etc. Having different troops each time is also beneficial since they all have different strengths that can be used during the clean...it's good to mix it up.

All homes are unique; the time needed for a house clean is based on multiple factors:
The size of the home
The larger the space, the longer it will take
The condition of the home
Has it recently been cleaned?
Is there lots of clutter that needs to be moved before cleaning starts?
The type of service being done
Deep cleans always take longer than standard cleans
Organizing also takes a lot of time
The team that is assigned to the clean
We are all human and some of our troops work faster than others; we do our best to send teams that have a mix of skill levels
