We generally arrive no later than 30 minutes after the window start-time, with a reasonable arrival window allowance of 1-hour from the scheduled start time. While we strive to adhere to the schedule, slight delays might occur due to unforeseen circumstances. We will always reach out by phone or text if we are running behind schedule.
Right to Refuse Service: We reserve the right to deny or terminate service in the event of inappropriate conduct, inaccessible or disconnected necessary utilities (electricity, running water), safety concerns, excessively cluttered or unsanitary beyond reasonable conditions, dangerous appurtenances present (weapons, live wires).

Service Fees: While we provide instant prices based on our experience and information provided on the client booking form, prices may be adjusted based on the actual condition of the home. If the condition deviates significantly from what is represented on the booking form, we will contact you to discuss the adjustments. We reserve the right to re-evaluate service fees at any time; If we are unable to establish contact within 60 minutes of the scheduled start of the appointment window, the cancellation ($50) or rescheduling ($25) fee will be charged.

If your home has a security system, kindly provide the necessary codes and instructions for use during the cleaning.
