Although it can be costly and time-consuming, we believe that our rigorous vetting process is the most important aspect of providing the highest-quality cleaners to our clients. We wouldn’t settle for anything less, and neither should you!

PRICING & POLICIES

Thanks for taking the time to fill out our instant online booking. We know your time is valuable and our online booking feature is just one way we help to accommodate your schedule. Whether it is getting the booking done for you quickly or getting your house service schedule, we have built our business in a way to prove to you that we are serious about your satisfaction in every way possible!

All of our services are guaranteed to be carried out with the maximum amount of professionalism and quality. This online bid is designed to make your life easier but is unfortunately unable to take every factor into consideration.

We must however note that the price estimate is based on common factors and please note that every house condition is different and some jobs will take less time to complete while others jobs will take longer due to the house condition.
Our online bidding system is incapable of bidding on anything that is above and beyond regular cleaning services.

All bids produced by this system are subject to change, although we try not to whenever possible.

You saved yourself time. You saved us gas & time. And this whole process has helped the environment. We consider that when we are making these adjustments and only do so when it is absolutely necessary and with great consideration. Our mission is NOT to bait and switch. We just thought it is only fair that we let you know that!
ALL PRICES ARE ESTIMATED BASED on our hourly rate of $35.00 to $45.00 per person per hour since our teams are made up of 2-4 cleaning technicians. We charge $100 -$180 per hour and this includes a team of 2-4 with all tools and supplies.

 

Book Now!

If you cancel within a 24 hour period of your cleaning, there will be a $75 charge.

It is not necessary to be at home while we are there cleaning. If you have an alarm, make sure we have the key code so we can disarm the alarm when we arrive, and set it again when we leave. We’ll also need a house keypad code or lockbox code to get the house key if needed to access the job. We do charge a $150 lockout fee if we have a confirmed appointment and can’t get in.

Absolutely, tips are not required but are always appreciated, it will make your cleaning professionals’ day! You can tip in cash directly, or let us know how much you would like to tip and we can add it to the total that is charged after your service has been completed.
