These apply and are legally binding to all our clients who book a service with us over the phone or through our website.

Services:

The Clean Agenda LLC provides interior residential, Air BnB, and commercial cleaning services only for residential and commercial properties.

Only when hired to do a trash-out cleaning will we remove large amounts of clutter, items and trash to a client-provided dumpster container. Those trash-out cleaning services are at a different rate than our typical cleaning services. Both the client and The Clean Agenda LLC and our Independent Contractors are responsible for clear communication and being responsible with the clients’ belongings and property. All incidents big or small are to be reported immediately.

Booking Confirmations:

Booking service online does not guarantee you a spot for that day/time. You will be contacted by email or phone with a confirmation.

Cleaning Crew:

We always work with solo cleaners, occasionally more cleaners may be needed due to the complexity of work or busy schedules. We do our best to limit the rotation of cleaners in your home. Our cleaners have been rigorously background screened prior to working with us, and you can rest assured that our cleaners have integrity and are held accountable.

Client Satisfaction:

The Clean Agenda LLC guarantees client satisfaction. We typically charge a flat rate to perform cleaning services based on the average amount of time to complete the cleaning of your size home. If we miss something included in your cleaning, we will come back to correct it for no extra charge if informed within 24 hours. This guarantee is for 72 hours – you must notify and allow us back into the location to correct within 72 hours of the original cleaning. In addition to that, in the case we arrive at your home and determine you require additional services not booked, such as a deep clean, we will communicate the required changes and costs upfront. If you do not agree to the additional charges, we will perform your booked services but cannot guarantee you a complete cleaning.

If we arrive at the home and determine there is excessive dust/dirt/grime/grease, we will add a heavy-duty cleaning fee of $75 to your booking.

Right To Refuse Services:

The Clean Agenda LLC reserves the right to deny or terminate service because of safety concerns, inappropriate or uncomfortable situations, weapons on premises, severe clutter or disconnected utilities. Our employees have the choice to leave if the home is in an extremely unsanitary condition (ie: mold, presence of blood, urine, feces, etc) or they feel unsafe/threatened. If you book a cleaning that is unreasonable, the cleaners may refuse service on the spot and you will be charged the cancellation fee.

Cleaning Day Preparation:

Your price for cleaning is based on the cleaners focusing all of their time on cleaning. We ask that you take a few minutes to tidy up to allow the cleaners access to the areas/surfaces to be cleaned: floors, countertops, tabletops, etc. If you’d like our cleaners to do these tasks for you, please call the office in advance so that your cleaning fee may be adjusted for the additional time.

If your pet becomes anxious or presents a safety concern, The Clean Agenda LLC reserves the right to remove its workers from your home. The Clean Agenda LLC contractors are instructed not to enter a house if they believe an animal is a threat. Pets may behave differently if a family member is not present. If removal of our cleaner is due to aggressive pets, our cancellation policy will apply.

Service Fees:

Please remember we give these instant prices based on years of experience, but we may adjust the price based on the actual condition of the house. To ensure there are no surprises when we arrive & find that the job will require extra time we’ll call you to let you know if we are unable to reach you, the crew will have to leave & you will be charged the cancellation fee.We reserve the right to reevaluate rates at any time based on the time it takes to perform our service to meet the client’s standards, The Clean Agenda LLC will contact the client to discuss price or service revisions if the cleaning time differs drastically from the original bid.

Rate Increases:

Client’s cleaning rate adjustments may be made at any time during the year should there be changes to the frequency of client’s established service schedule or home or living situation: remodel, change of address, number of people living in the home, a significant addition of furniture, etc.Customer rate shall be increased annually, by an amount not-to-exceed

8% of client’s current rate.

Lockouts:

Client shall make the service location accessible to The Clean Agenda LLC personnel on the scheduled service day. If the team is locked out of Client’s home, every effort will be made to establish contact with Client to arrange for entry into the home, if contact is not made within 20 minutes of the arrival of the cleaning team, the scheduled cleaning will be skipped & you will be charged 50% or a $75.

Late cancellation fee, this fee is necessary to compensate unexpected lost revenue & time travel, to avoid the fee provide us with a key or code to gain entry to your home or office.

Recurring Service Discount:

Recurring discounts begin AFTER the first cleaning service. If you skip cleanings so that your cleaning frequency is lower than what you were set up for, your price will be increased to the pricing level for the lower frequency.

Hourly Service:

Use of Homeowner’s Equipment:

If you request to use your vacuum, we will not assume or accept any liability for damage to the unit. Since we are not responsible for the maintenance of the vacuum, we will not be responsible for any repairs to it. This is important because if the vacuum is not in working order when we arrive to clean your home, we will not be able to perform any vacuuming of carpet & hard floor surfaces.

Cleaners Arrival Window:

We schedule our cleanings in an order that requires the least amount of drive time in an effort to maintain low prices & avoid trip fees, if you require a specific time we will make every effort to accommodate your request, however, no times are guaranteed.

Uncontrollable Natural Events And Inclement Weather:
