Frequently Asked Questions

Many of our customers have specific questions about our professional maid services. Here are just a few of the frequently asked questions we hear at Cleaning Company.

General Questions

How can I get a quote?

Simply visit the signup flow to book a cleaning and as you provide information about your house and schedule, your quote will dynamically adjust.

Am I charged the full quoted amount even if it doesn't take that long to clean my house?

No, you’re only charged based on the amount of time your cleaner was actually at your home working. If they finish early, you aren’t charged the full amount quoted.

Does someone have to visit my house before I can book a cleaning?

Absolutely not! We wouldn’t want pushy sales people coming to our house so we would never do that to you. You can get a quote and book your cleaning online. It takes about one minute.

Are cleaning supplies included?

Cleaning supplies aren’t included by default. This ensures your cleaner uses the products you like and there isn’t any cross-contamination from house to house.

However, if you don’t have supplies, we can bring them for an additional charge of £1 per hour (£2 for End of Tenancy and One Off cleanings). You can opt-in to this option from your customer dashboard. PLEASE NOTE: we always use your vacuum and mop/bucket so please be sure to have those items on-hand.

For End of Tenancy and One Off cleanings we can provide the equipment needed. Additional fees apply!

What if I'm not happy with my cleaning?

Please get in touch with us right away and we’ll make arrangements to rectify the situation. We have a satisfaction guarantee that we stand by.

Do you have a cancellation fee?

If you want to cancel or reschedule a booking please do let us know 24 hours in advance. You agree to pay full payment if you cancel or reschedule a booking less than 24 hours of your booking. In the event the cleaner is asked to leave, there is no one to let the cleaner in or there is no electricity and/or water in the property, you agree to pay the full amount for the booking.

Scheduling Questions

CAN I GET A SAME-DAY BOOKING?

We don’t guarantee same-day bookings. But, depending on the day, we can often meet this requirement.

DO I HAVE TO BE HOME FOR MY CLEANING?

It’s completely up to you. If you’re not going to be home, make sure you let us know how to access your house by putting the information in your customer dashboard. If a key needs to be arranged then please do let us know of a time of your convenience and your cleaner will come to your house to collect it.

DOES MY CLEANER ARRIVE AT THE EXACT TIME I BOOK?

Yes, most of the time. However, we allow a one-hour window due to traffic and weather conditions. In scenarios where your cleaner will be late, you will be contacted to let you know the ETA.

WHEN AM I CHARGED FOR THE SERVICE?

You are not charged until after the cleaning has been completed. Your invoice will reflect only the amount of time that your cleaner was actually at your home working, rounded-up to the nearest 15 minute increment.

ARE THERE NAY COMMITMENTS OF CONTRACTS?

No, you can cancel service any time without any penalties. You don’t have to commit to any contracts or pre-determined number of appointments. But please do let us know a week in advance.
