Referrals:
We spend a lot of time interviewing potential cleaners and investigating their backgrounds and experience.

We reserve the right not to clean an item/area within the house (at no discount price to the Customer) if the item may pose a possible risk to the cleaner. For instance, a cracked or broken power point, dangerous light fitting or working at heights.
Some items will be subject to wear and tear, some also may not be cleaned due to long-term or excessive exposure or contact with a build-up of grime; in these instances, if identified no warranty will apply to these areas or items.

We reserve the right to show up at your house within a 15-minute window after receiving your booking. For instance, If the booking time is 12:00 PM, we may show up at any moment between 11:45 AM and 12:15 PM. We will cover your set of booking hours.
