Welcome to 5 Star Cleaning Services. A clean that you can trust! First of all thank you for choosing 5star cleaning services. This document outlines what you can expect from the service plus Terms and Conditions.
The booking fee covers administration and the placement of the cleaners. The remainder of the fee is paid directly to the cleaning team once you are satisfied with the clean. Please note: All our cleaners are independent contractors and they are paid directly by you. We allocate a professional cleaning team to your property to undertake a thorough top-to-toe clean of your property.
The cleaning plan, is designed specifically around your needs and priorities, in accordance with the areas ticked on the cleaning checklist only.
How to get the best from your Cleaning team:
- Â Make sure all the tasks you would like completed are captured on the cleaning checklist. If there are areas outside the cleaning checklist that
you want to be cleaned this is at the discretion of the cleaning supervisor on the day, the cleaners are NOT oblidged to clean any areas not specified on the cleaning checklist. - If you need to cancel and change a date, you must provide 7 days prior notice, as once you have paid the deposit the team has been arranged and at that point your deposit is non refundable ( we offer 1 change of notice, if provided with a lead in time of 7 days).
- On the day of the clean itself show the cleaners the tasks that you want carried out on the day, including the most important areas for you.
- Aim to get the majority of the difficult or ‘most frustrating areas’ done in the 1st hour and a half. This means the cleaners have plenty of time to attend to the remaining areas on the checklist.
- Please note:
- It is your responsibility to check their work and make sure you are satisfied with the quality. If you are not fully satisfied with the quality of the clean, you can address this with the manager while the team are present in your property or, the cleaning team will stay and re-do any area to your full satisfaction.
-  However, if you sign the checklist and pay the team, then the payment becomes non-refundable once the cleaning team have left the building. As 5 star cleaning does not have any responsibility for the cleanliness of your property, once the cleaning team are no longer in the property.
