Booking
How do I book a clean?+

Do I need to be home during the clean?+
Nope. Most of our clients aren't home. You can leave a key, use a lockbox, or provide an entry code — whatever works for you. Just make sure access instructions are included when you book or in your account notes.
Can I schedule a recurring clean?+
Yes, and you'll save money doing it. We offer weekly (20% off), bi-weekly (15% off), and monthly (10% off) recurring options. You can set this up directly in the booking flow. Cancel or pause anytime — no contracts.
How far in advance do I need to book?+
We recommend booking at least 48–72 hours in advance to ensure availability. For same-day or next-day bookings, availability depends on our current schedule — you're welcome to try, but we can't always guarantee it.
Can I cancel or reschedule?+
Yes. You can cancel or reschedule through your booking confirmation email or by contacting us directly. We just ask for at least 24 hours notice — late cancellations (under 24 hours) may be subject to a fee.

What exactly is included in a Deep Clean, what makes it different?+
A Deep Clean includes everything in a Standard Clean, plus all the areas that get skipped during regular maintenance. Think of it as resetting your home to a baseline level of clean. Here's what's extra compared to a Standard Clean:
What's Added on Top of Standard
Baseboards — hand wiped along every wall in every room
Door frames — top and sides wiped down
Interior windows — glass cleaned inside, sills and tracks wiped
Blinds — wet wiped slat by slat (not just dusted)
Inside the oven — racks removed, interior scrubbed
Inside the refrigerator — shelves and drawers removed and wiped
Inside the microwave — walls, ceiling, and turntable cleaned
Cabinet fronts and handles — wiped and degreased
Light switches and outlet covers — sanitized throughout
Ceiling fans — blades and housing wiped down
Behind and under furniture — vacuumed and mopped where accessible
Shower grout and tile — scrubbed not just wiped
We recommend starting with a Deep Clean if your home hasn't been professionally cleaned in the last 4–6 weeks. After that, a Standard recurring clean keeps it maintained.
What does Space Organization include?+
Space Organization is about bringing order to areas that have gotten out of hand closets, pantries, home offices, garages, or any room that needs a reset. Your pro will sort, declutter, and arrange the space in a way that's functional and easy to maintain. Scope varies by room, so include details when booking.
Do your pros bring their own supplies and equipment?+
