If you have specific priorities, tell us when booking so they can be included in the agreed cleaning routine.

How Often Can I Book a Cleaner?

You can choose a frequency that suits your household.

For a single cleaning visit when you need additional help.

Weekly Cleaning

For households that want their home maintained every week.

For homes that need regular cleaning but not every week.

For occasional household maintenance.

The frequency and availability are confirmed when the service is arranged.

For example, you may want the cleaner to give additional attention to:

• Kitchen
• Bathrooms

The agreed routine should be clear before cleaning begins.

Optional Add-Ons

Some household tasks are outside the standard cleaning rate and can be added separately.

Additional work will be agreed before it is charged.

Do I Pay Extra for Additional Work?

Yes, where the work falls outside the standard cleaning scope.

For example, if you request oven cleaning, ironing, inside-cupboard cleaning or additional cleaning time, this is treated as an add-on.

What If My House Needs More Cleaning Than Standard?

Not every home requires the same amount of work.

If the property has heavy dirt, accumulated grime, excessive grease, stains, neglect or other conditions that require substantially more work than a normal domestic clean, the standard rate may not apply.

We will discuss the additional requirement with you before proceeding with additional work.

Where appropriate, a deep cleaning service may be more suitable.

This should be confirmed when booking because cleaning arrangements can differ.
