Customers wishing to receive an over-the-phone quote need to provide accurate details on the size and scale of the job they want us to complete. Otherwise, we will need to do a second estimate.

The Company reserves the right to an advance deposit payment of £40 or up to 50% of the price of the Services. In such circumstances The Company will invoice the Client for the balance on or at any time the Company has performed the Services. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Client must pay the balance immediately upon completion of the Services before the cleaning operative leaves the Client’s premises, either by cash or debit/credit card. If the agreement is not covered or the Client is not present at the time, the Client authorises the Company to take the outstanding balance from the credit/debit card the Client used to pay their advance deposit.

  4. Inform all the necessary financial institutions in the United Kingdom of the Client’s Bad Debtor status

By booking us, you state that you have familiarised yourself with all of our Terms and Conditions.

The Company reserves the right to levy a card processing charge of 3.5% of the fees paid where you choose to pay your fees by credit card.

Cancellations

Clients have the right to cancel the scheduled job or to reschedule their appointment. However, they need to inform the Company about their cancellation or rescheduling request at least 2 days prior the appointment. If they do not do that, they will be required to pay a fee amounting to £40 which is not an object of refund.

If the Client wants to cancel a contract recurring cleaning service, we will expect to be notified at least 7 days before the appointment through an email or phone. The Client must provide clear details on the motivations behind this decision, as well as the exact date of the Client’s last appointment.

In case the Client fails to notify us of the cancellation within the above-mentioned time-frame, he/she will have to cover the full cost of the cleaning service.

If the Company’s scheduled service is sustained because the Client has failed to provide at least 48 hours cancellation notice or if  the Client is not able to provide access to the property at which the Services are due to take place, or the Client has not provided us with the necessary electricity and water supplies, or has provided faulty or defective equipment or insufficient cleaning materials, the Company reserves the right to retain the collected advance deposit or to charge the Client in full for the cancelled services.

If the Client’s actual room sizes differ by more than 20% or if Client’s initial requirements change during the cleaning or if cleaning of badly neglected property is required that may take up to three times longer than for cleaning a well-maintained home, the Company will discuss revised rates before work is commenced. If the Client does not accept the adjusted rate, the Company keeps the right to cancel the service and to retain the advance deposit payment.

If the Company believes that the condition of the property can pose threat to the health of its employees, it can cancel the cleaning appointment and retain the collected advance deposit.

If the Client cancels an order that the Company has already started work on, the Client will pay any costs the Company reasonably incurred in starting to fulfil the Order, and this charge will be deducted from any refund that is due, if no refund is due, then it will be invoiced to the Client. In all other circumstances if the Client wishes to cancel or change the date of any Services the Client must give the Company not less than 48 hours’ notice before the Services are due to be performed. Such cancellation notice may be given by telephone or email. Please note that the Company’s incoming emails and telephone messages are checked between the hours of 08.00 to 19.00 Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays) and between 09.00 and 16.00 on Saturday and Sunday, so any cancellation or change notification received during that period shall be deemed to have been received on the next working day.

In case of an accident or other unforeseen events involving our professionals, or unavailability of key personnel or key equipment/materials without which we cannot provide the services, the appointment can be cancelled or rescheduled by the Company. The Client will be promptly contacted if this happens. In such circumstances, if the Client has made any payment in advance for Services that have not been provided, the Company will refund these amounts to the Client.

Access

Clients are expected to provide the Company’s cleaning team with access to running water and electricity within the area that needs to be cleaned. If not such provided, the service will be cancelled and a cancellation fee of £40 will be charged.

The Client has the responsibility to give access to the establishment or home at the arranged hour and day.

The Client will also have to provide our cleaners with an adequate parking space that is close to the establishment or home. Additional charges such as parking and congestion charge will be included in the invoice of the Client if such costs occur.

Insurance

Our Company and all professionals employed by us have a liability insurance.

The insurance will cover any damages and accidents caused by the Company’s team only if they are reported within 1 day of the service date.

Our Company has the right not to share any business documentation that can be classified as confidential.

Claims

The Company will not accept refund claims filed more than a day after the cleaning appointment. Refunds will only be issued in the event of unexpected circumstances which would make it impossible for the cleaning team to be on site and complete the service.

If the Client does not provide a written complaint within one day after the cleaning service has been carried out, the service will be considered to have been executed in accordance with the Client’s requirements. All insurance claims are responsibly handled.

In case, the Client is not happy with the service which he/she received, he/she is required to provide the Company’s cleaning team with access to the property for a second on-site viewing and cleaning appointment.

The Client’s presence during the re-clean appointment is obligatory.

The Company is required to provide just one re-clean appointment for every cleaning job it carries out.

Our cleaners work in the utmost careful manner possible but sometimes that is not enough to prevent accidents. We try to replace all damaged items but we cannot give Clients a guarantee that they will get an exact match of their broken item.

We have the right to ask the Client to provide us with access to the property within a day after the claim has been filed in order to properly resolve the issue.

If the Company is found guilty of damaging or breaking property of the Client, we will replace the item. If that is not possible, we will cover the cost of the item. That, however, will happen only after the Client has paid the Company for the services, he/she received.

Liability

We are not legally responsible for the damages caused by individuals who are not employed by the Company even if they were on the premises cleaned by our team.

Our liability insurance does not cover valuable items such as antiques, jewellery and artwork, cash or possessions that are sentimentally valuable.

If the Client has any such possessions on the premises, he/she is advised to remove them from the property during the cleaning appointment.

The Company’s liability insurance does not cover old spills, stains and other property damages that our cleaners failed to fix through standard cleaning techniques.

The Company provides any estimates in good faith, based upon average times taken to clean homes of a similar size, but it is difficult to predict actual timings with certainty and some degree of flexibility will be required. For example, after building cleaning, event cleaning and the cleaning of badly neglected properties may take up to three times longer than for cleaning a well-maintained home on a regular basis and a revised estimate on site will be provided and/or services will be cancelled and deposit retained.

We will not respond to liability claims for shrunk carpets if the carpeting has not been properly installed.

Our team always does its best to properly clean the domestic appliances of each client. Nevertheless, if our cleaners have failed to remove the built-up grime from an appliance that has never been cleaned, we will not respond to any claims.

Defrost your freezers in time for the scheduled appointment. Otherwise, the Company’s team will not be able to clean them.

Our End of Tenancy Cleaning service does not come with a quality guarantee in the case when there are people or furniture pieces on the premises.

We offer a 48 guarantee for our End of Tenancy Cleaning service but these guarantee conditions are not applicable for Clients who have booked our End of Tenancy Cleaning together with a Carpet Cleaning service.

Clients should avoid putting their furniture on freshly cleaned carpets that are still wet because our liability insurance does not cover damages caused by that.

The Company’s liability insurance does not cover fabric defects that were hidden under the dirt cleaned by our team or property damages that are a result of the Client’s cleaning machines and supplies.

With the exception of our End of Tenancy Cleaning service, we are not required to clean areas which were not added to the cleaning list by the Client.

We can refuse to carry out an After Builders Cleaning if there are still ongoing construction works on the property.
