Each of our domestic helpers is not only highly experienced but has also undergone rigorous vetting procedures, assuring our clients of the utmost professionalism and reliability in the services we provide. Your satisfaction and peace of mind are at the core of our hiring standards.

​

Furthermore, we prioritize the safety and well-being of your household by ensuring that all our domestic helpers hold certifications in house cleaning, child care, CPR, and First Aid.

Minimum Service Charge Provision:

A stipulated minimum charge of 4 hours is applicable to all our services, ensuring a baseline commitment for the provision of our offerings.

 

Termination of Services Clause for Recurring Services:

This agreement, characterized as "open-ended," may be terminated by either party upon the provision of a one-week notice. Termination shall be effective at the conclusion of the specified notice period.

 

Customer Satisfaction Assurance:

Please contact us via call or email within 8 hours if there are any issues that require correction. While refunds and discounts are not offered for dissatisfaction of service, we are committed to addressing and rectifying concerns within a 24-hour timeframe. To facilitate our investigation, kindly provide evidence of the issue in the form of pictures or videos when reporting the concern.

 

Scheduled Arrival Window:

The arrival time is approximate, and the service provider may reach the destination 15 minutes earlier or later than the scheduled start time. This flexibility accounts for potential delays caused by heavy traffic on our roads.

 

Scheduled Start Time:

The exact start time for the scheduled booking will be confirmed the day before the appointment. If the customer has specific constraints or requires a fixed start time, please communicate this to the office team when making the booking. We will make every effort to accommodate your preferences within operational constraints.

 

Changes to Schedule:

For any adjustments to the schedule, please liaise directly with our office. The cleaning team is not empowered to make changes to the schedule.

 

​Payment Policy:

Payment is required at the time of booking to confirm your service. Upon booking, we will provide detailed instructions for payment through online bank transfer.

 

We also accept credit/debit cards; however, please note that a 4.25% additional charge applies. Cash payments can be arranged through our office during the booking process, but under no circumstances should cash be given directly to the cleaning team unless prior approval has been granted by our office.

​

If online bank transfer is not a viable option for you, please notify us before booking to explore alternative payment methods. Kindly note that we do not accept cheques.​

​

Cancellation Policy

To receive a full credit on your account, cancellations must be submitted at least 72 hours before the scheduled service. Credits will only be issued for cancellations made within this time frame. Please note that refunds are not provided—only account credits will be issued.

Cancellations made less than 72 hours before the scheduled service will not qualify for a credit.

 

For proper processing, all cancellations must be submitted via email. Please be aware that our office phone is not monitored outside regular office hours, and we cannot guarantee that calls or messages will be received in time. Email is the recommended and reliable method for submitting cancellations.

 

Accidental Damage Acknowledgment:

The client acknowledges that, despite our best efforts to avoid any accidental damage during the course of our services, unforeseen incidents may occur. In the event of accidental damage, our company is not to be held liable. We commit to taking every precaution to minimize the risk of such occurrences, but the client accepts the inherent possibility of accidental damage. However, should accidental damage occur, the client is encouraged to take the following steps for reporting:

​

1. Timely Reporting: Report any accidental damage within 4 hours of the completion of the service.

2. Evidence Submission: Provide detailed information about the damage along with supporting pictures. Submit this information via email to our office for prompt consideration.

Please note that damage reported outside of this 4-hour timeframe will not be considered for assessment or resolution. This strict reporting deadline is in place to ensure that concerns are addressed promptly and efficiently.

 

Pets Policy:

We welcome your pets to be present while we work. However, for the safety of everyone involved, we kindly ask that aggressive pets be securely contained during our visit. Please note that cleaning up pet waste is not included in our services.

 

No Water/Electricity:

In the event that water or electricity is unavailable upon our arrival at the location, we will be unable to provide our services. In such circumstances, the service will be canceled, and the full-service amount will be payable. It is essential to ensure the availability of both water and electricity to facilitate the successful completion of our services.

 

Lifting and Climbing Safety:

To prioritize safety, our team members are restricted from lifting or moving items exceeding 50lbs and from cleaning areas requiring climbing higher than a two-step ladder. For services behind appliances (fridge/washer/dryer/stove), kindly ensure they are pulled out before our arrival. This helps us provide efficient and safe services.

 

Cleaning Supplies:

We provide all essential cleaning products. However, the client is responsible for supplying a broom, regular mop, bucket, toilet brush, and a properly functioning vacuum. If any of these tools are unavailable, kindly inform us before your service. While we strongly recommend having these tools, our supply is limited, and availability cannot be guaranteed on the service day. Moreover, for health considerations, we prefer not to share these tools between households.

 

For ironing and laundry services, the client must provide an iron, ironing board, spray starch, laundry detergent, and softener (if desired).

Please specify any allergies or note if certain chemicals cannot be used in your home.

 

Replacement Notification:

If circumstances require assigning a different domestic helper, the company will make efforts to notify the client in advance. Flexibility is appreciated, but if the client prefers the same helper assigned and is not flexible in this regard, the office team must be informed at the time of booking.

​

Ensuring a Safe Working Environment:

It is the client's responsibility to ensure a safe and comfortable work environment for our team members. We kindly request that you refrain from turning off your air conditioning or setting it at a high temperature while our team is providing services in your home. Please note that if the air conditioning is not functioning, we may be unable to proceed with the service.

​

We also kindly ask for mutual respect between our staff and clients. Our team members are instructed to treat all customers cordially and respectfully, and we expect the same courtesy in return. Any form of verbal abuse or disrespect will not be tolerated, fostering a positive and collaborative working relationship. Your understanding and cooperation are appreciated.
