When we come to clean your home, the cost of that clean is based on cleaning your home rather than tidying it. We ask that you take a few minutes the night before your scheduled clean to pick up and create those available surfaces for us to clean: floors, countertops, table tops, etc. Please remember also to remove dirty dishes from kitchen sinks so we can clean those up as well. If you’d like us to take care of these tasks for you, no problem! Please call the Office (in advance) so your cleaning fee can be adjusted for the additional a la carte services needed.
Fragile or Broken Items
Our housekeepers are trained to be careful and respectful with your belongings. Let us know in advance if an item is fragile or already broken so we'll know to use extra caution. Let us know too about any fragile or broken items that you would like us NOT to clean so we can make note to avoid those things.
We provide everything needed to complete your cleaning. That said, if you have particular products you like used on certain items, please leave those out on the kitchen counter along with a note that has instructions. Also let us know if you would like us to use your vacuum.
On the first visit, you can meet us at the home to let us in, or we can coordinate a secure way for us to access your home.
