Changes to Requested Service

Please communicate requests for changes in appointment days and time to the agency directly.

Safety

For safety purposes are cleaners are unable to move any heavy furniture or step on a ladder higher than two steps. If you would like us to clean areas behind appliances or furniture please have these moved and ready to clean prior to the commencement of the appointment. We take these measures to protect our cleaners and also prevent damage to your property. Additionally, we kindly request your cooperation in securing a safe environment, including proper management of pets or potential hazards. In the event of an injury occurring due to circumstances on your premises, you may be held accountable for any resultant damages or medical costs.

Zero Tolerance

We have a zero tolerance policy towards aggression and anti-social violent behaviour.
• Rude and abusive behaviour
• Threatening & intimidation
• Inappropriate advances (sexual harassment and other types)
• Overly demanding disrespectful behaviour

Pets and Minors

The cleaners will do the best to be aware of pets of minors while cleaning. It will be the customer's responsibility to watch and mind pets and minors in the household. If your pet could be uneasy around strangers, please ensure it's restrained during our service for our cleaners' safety.

Lock Outs

If for any reason our cleaners arrive to your property and are unable to gain access or if they are turned away at the door this appointment will incur a cancellation fee.

If you cancel your appointment within 48 hours of the scheduled time you may incur a cancellation fee. The cancellation fee for a Once Off or Regular Clean appointment is $75 and for a Deep Clean appointment is $150.

Home Access

We strong recommend you provide a lockbox solution for access if you plan to not be home during the cleaning appointment.

There are various options can provide your cleaner with in order for access

NOTE: In the event the client chooses to leave a door unlocked, or place a key under a mat or any other unsecured place for the cleaners to gain entry into the home, the Agency or its cleaners will not be held liable for any damages or theft to the client’s home.

Lockbox – A lockbox is a small black box usually with a combination or keypad on it. Real estate agents commonly use this to securely store a key inside. This is a great secure option to leave a key for your cleaner.

It is preferred for your home alarm system to be turned on the day of your appointment. This will provide greater ease for your cleaner. If you have an alarm system which is easy to operate you may provide us with instructions on operating the alarm.

If it is possible to meet your cleaner we recommend you show them around on the cleaner's initial appointment. This will help them with understanding your requirements and instructions to access your property.

Homes with the following cannot be services; animal waste, human waste, dead animals, and/or anything else that may be a bio-hazard. If your pet has an accident or vomits, it will be your responsibility to clean it up. The cleaners will clean around these areas.
Seasonal insect infestation can also be a problem and may prevent the cleaner from completely cleaning your home. If ants, termites, roaches, rodent, fleas, etc., are encountered, the cleaner will not clean or vacuum the area. The cleaner will leave you a note, or the agency will call you regarding the problem. If you have other items you prefer to not be cleaned or handled, please call the office and we will arrange to avoid those items.
The cleaners can only clean areas reachable by hand. The cleaners cannot clean ceiling fans that are not reachable by a 2 step ladder (supplied by the customer), upper shelves, chandeliers, wet wiping light bulbs, heavy scrubbing of walls, heavy duty/steam carpet or any carpet cleaning, move heavy appliances, move furniture that contains electronics, lift heavy objects, prepare meals, provide any pet or children-related services, or empty diaper pails.

Damages and Liabilities

The Agency acts as a referral service. All Cleaners are independent cleaning professionals whom the client is contracting directly with. Payment is always made to your Cleaner and not to the Agency. The cleaning service is provided by the Cleaner and not the Agency.

Any damages or liabilities, losses that are direct or consequential or inconsequential as a result of the service provided by the Cleaner is the sole responsibility and liability of the Cleaner.

The Agency shall not be liable under any circumstances for any losses that the Client suffers as a result of any failure or negligence by a Cleaner to comply with his/her contractual obligations for whatever reason regardless of the fact that such Cleaner may have been referred to the Client by the Agency.

All warranties in respect of the Service, whether implied by statute or common law, made expressly or otherwise, are hereby excluded to the extent permitted by law.

How Many Hours Do I Need? A Helpful Guide

All our cleaning services are based on hourly rates, allowing you to book the time you need and specify your focus areas and priorities directly with your cleaner. The number of tasks completed is directly related to the total hours booked. As an example, a 2-hour booking would not be sufficient to clean a 4-bedroom home thoroughly.

Estimated Time Needed for Whole-Home Cleaning:

🔵 Regular Clean & Once-Off Clean

Includes General Clean: Full bathroom, floors (vac & mop), kitchen surfaces, and dusting (dependent on hours booked)

 🔵 Deep Clean 

Includes all features of a Regular Clean, along with added services like cleaning internal cabinets, oven, rangehood, and internal windows. The time required for a Deep Clean can differ significantly based on specific tasks, such as spot-cleaning walls or dusting blinds, which are notably time-intensive. Hours needed are dependent on your unique requirements.

🔔 One Cleaner, One Job: The cleaning times estimated in this guide, and the hours you select on our booking form, are calculated as labour hours for a single cleaner. We typically assign just one cleaner per job, rather than teams, to ensure greater reliability and accountability. However, for extensive tasks like a Deep Clean exceeding 8 hours, we may arrange a team of cleaners. Therefore, if you book 3 hours or see an estimate for 3 hours in this guide, it means one cleaner will work for 3 hours cleaning your home.

Why do extra bedrooms add more cleaning time? The time taken to clean an additional bedroom isn't the main factor. Rather, homes with more bedrooms usually have other enlarged spaces too—like bigger kitchens or an extra living room etc. So, when we estimate cleaning time for a home with more bedrooms, it's not about the bedrooms per se; it's about the overall increase in the size of the home. For instance, a home with 5 bedrooms isn't just two bedrooms larger than a 3-bedroom home; it's usually significantly bigger overall, with more spaces that require cleaning.

How do extra bathrooms affect the overall cleaning time required? Unlike bedrooms, bathrooms are often some of the most labour-intensive areas to clean in a home, due to the variety of surfaces and the high level of cleanliness required. Cleaning an extra bathroom can add anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour to the overall cleaning time, and a powder room (toilet-only room) may add another 15-20 minutes. Additionally, more bathrooms also suggests a larger home size and complexity, which, while playing a smaller role, still contributes to the overall estimated cleaning time.

Other Factors Affecting Time Needed:

Fair Comparisons, Evaluating Cost and Service: If transitioning from a fixed-price cleaning service to our hourly-rate model, consider the overall cost for a comparable amount of cleaning. If you book a base level of 2 hours with us but used to pay your previous cleaner twice as much, you may have been paying for two cleaners. Therefore, to achieve a similar amount of work done, a 4-hour booking with us would be needed.

🔔 This is a general guide only and may not be suited to your needs and home. You may need more or less hours.

Why Our Hourly Rate Service is Your Best Choice

When it comes to cleaning services, you often face two options: fixed price or hourly rate. We're committed to offering you the best value and quality, which is why we've chosen to provide services at an hourly rate. Here's why:

- Transparency & Consistency: With hourly rates, you get exactly what you pay for—no more, no less. When you book a 3-hour service, you're guaranteed 3 hours of dedicated cleaning. This way, you can measure the service you receive, ensuring consistent and fair delivery every time.

- Flexibility to Suit Your Needs: Our hourly rate system lets you tailor the cleaning to what you specifically require. Whether you need your entire house cleaned or just specific areas, you decide the focus and duration, making your service customisable and adaptable.

- Quality Over Quantity: Unlike fixed price services that may encourage rushing, our cleaners dedicate their full attention to delivering quality. Be it a pre-party deep clean or your regular weekly service, the focus is on thoroughness and hygiene.

- Upfront, No-Surprise Pricing: When you book with us, you choose the number of hours you want your cleaner to work. The price is confirmed at the time of booking, and that's exactly what you'll pay. Your cleaner will complete as much as they can within your pre-booked time. So, there are no hidden fees or unexpected charges. You're in control, always. In contrast, fixed-price services may offer low initial quotes, only to increase charges later.

Better Value: When compared hour-to-hour, our hourly rate services can be up to 40% more cost-effective than fixed price alternatives. We've gone into great depth comparing these pricing methods in our detailed guide, which we invite you to -
