There is no term to this agreement and the client or White Glove Cleaning Services, LLC. You may cancel your service at any time. White Glove Cleaning Services, LLC also reserves the right to cancel your service at any time.
By allowing our company to service your home, you hereby agree to the below service policy. If you have any questions, please call (844)947-7275.
Thank you for choosing White Glove Cleaning Services, LLC as your cleaning provider. The following are important service policies that will help understand the expectation of the cleaning service relationship.
PRICING CLARIFICATION
As with all insured/bonded cleaning companies, we charge per hour, per technician with a minimum charge of three (3) labor hours. Due to varying service levels and times needed for each home, providing an exact initial cleaning time and cost is challenging. Subsequent cleaning pricing tends to be more consistent, if your home's condition doesn't change significantly. Rest assured, our skilled technicians prioritize thorough and efficient cleaning, valuing your time and home.
JOB START/END TIMES
Our hourly rates encompass the duration starting from our arrival at your premises (including unloading supplies and equipment) to the completion of the cleaning (including loading the supplies back into our vehicle). Delays during loading and unloading will not incur charges.
LATE CANCELLATIONS/ LOCKOUT FEES
We understand schedules change. We ask that you contact us no later than forty-eight (48) hours before your scheduled cleaning to cancel or reschedule.
Cancellations later than noon the day before are subject to a $50 cancellation fee.
Cancellations later than 5pm the day before the scheduled cleaning, Same Day cancellations or if we are unable to gain access to your home are subject to a fee equal to 100% of the estimated charge for the scheduled cleaning service.
If you request a reschedule we may not be able to accommodate your request with the same cleaning team you are accustomed to. We always try our best to accommodate.
SECURITY/ ENTRY
Your security is paramount. While our clients may entrust us with keys or access codes, alternative entry methods can be arranged based on your preferences. We adhere to your instructions concerning home access. If we are unable to gain access to your home, a lock-out fee equal to 100% of the estimated service charge will be automatically charged.
SKIPPED OR MISSED CLEANING VISITS
Please be aware that if you choose to skip a cleaning, kindly let us know forty-eight (48) hours in advance so we may accommodate other customers. Be aware that subsequent cleanings might necessitate additional time and thus higher charges to ensure a thorough cleaning.
HOUSE PREP
-It would be appreciated if items were picked up off the floor and dressers and counters were not piled with too much clutter before we arrive. This allows the cleaning technicians to clean more thoroughly and they won’t have to spend time picking up items. If there wasn't an opportunity to pick up clutter before we arrive, no worries! The cleaning service may just take longer than usual, which would reflect in the cost of the service.
-In the summer months it would be appreciated if you would set your air conditioner at an appropriate temperature.
-In the winter months we appreciate cleared sidewalks and driveways so the staff is able to gain access to your home.
-If for some reason you do not want a particular room cleaned, please just leave a note for the staff and we will honor that request.
-Kindly open doors to all rooms you would like to be addressed in the cleaning. Should our technician encounter a door that is closed, they are instructed to keep the door closed for your privacy and that area will not be cleaned.
EXTRA REQUESTS
Please call us in advance for special requests (i.e. after construction, refrigerator cleaning, inside of oven, inside windows, the basement, garage, extra rooms) so we can schedule the time needed to complete these items. Since we charge hourly for our cleaning services, there will not be an additional per item fee as most companies charge - we only charge for the additional time these extra requests may take.
If you request extra items to be cleaned upon the arrival of the cleaning technicians that may not have discussed prior to your appointment, the cleaning technicians will contact our office. If we do not have enough scheduled time to complete the additional requests, we will happily reschedule the visit to complete any additional cleaning needs.
DISHES
We'll happily wash a few dishes if left in the sink; or if the dishwasher is empty, we'll place the few dirty dishes in the dishwasher.
ACCIDENTS/DAMAGE
We make every effort not to break or damage items but sometimes accidents may occur. For this reason we request all irreplaceable items be stored and/or not cleaned by our staff. Our personnel are instructed to call our office if anything is damaged and to leave a note to you advising you of the incident. We reserve the option of repair or replacement before a monetary settlement.
PETS (Our furry children)
Pets are not a problem at all! In fact, we love them! We would love to know their names for our reference. Also, if any pet is aggressive we ask that you secure them while we are cleaning your home. If they are friendly we will happy to clean around them. Our teams are instructed not to enter a house if they believe an animal is a threat. Please remember that pets may behave differently if a family member is not present.
Pet messes- our cleaning technicians will pick up a spot or two because we understand accidents may happen after you leave your home. As pet messes take additional time and a different cleaning procedure, your cleaning time may be longer.
NO-NO’s FOR OUR TECHNICIANS: Insect and rodents can be a problem and may prevent us from completely cleaning your home. If mouse/rat droppings, ants, termites, roaches, fleas, etc., are encountered, we will not clean or vacuum the area. We will leave you a note, or call you regarding the problem. If we must leave your home, the full cleaning charge would still apply and will be automatically charged.
If you have other items you prefer not cleaned or handled, please call the office and we will arrange to avoid those items.
Lastly, our employees cannot climb higher than a two step step-stool, work on the outside of your home, move furniture that contains electronics or lift any objects over 20 pounds. This ensures the cleaning technicians have a safe working environment.
