Terms of Service

By using this website to book a service, you agree to comply to be bound by these terms & conditions if you do not agree to these terms & conditions, it is recommended that you do not book a service with us.

Booking Confirmation

Booking service online doesn’t guarantee you a spot for that date/time, you will be contacted by email or phone with a confirmation.

Cleaning Providers

Our providers have been properly vetted & prior to onboarding with us, you can rest assured all of our providers have integrity and are held accountable.

Right to Refuse Service

We reserve the right to deny and/or terminate service because of safety concerns, inappropriate or uncomfortable situations, weapons on-premises, severe clutter and disconnected utilities.

Our providers have the choice to leave if the home is in an extremely unsanitary condition or if 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 easy access to the areas/surfaces to be cleaned: floors, counter-tops, tabletops, etc. If you’d like our cleaners to do these tasks for you, call the office in advance so your cleaning fee can be adjusted for the additional time.

Add-On Services

These services are available for an extra charge:

Heavy-duty cleaning
Wet wipe/detail blinds
Clean inside oven
Dishes

Pets

We will gladly work around pets, we ask that indoor activity is limited for cleaning efficiency & safety reasons, if your pet becomes anxious or presents a safety concern, Vera Cleaners reserves the right to remove its providers from your home.

Our providers 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 the removal of our cleaning provider 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 provider will have to leave and 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, Vera Cleaners will contact the client to discuss price or service revisions if the cleaning time differs significantly.

Payments

Payments are made by credit card only. Cards will not be charged until AFTER the appointment is completed.

Refund Policy

We do not offer refunds. We have built our business providing our clients with the best possible service available; still, we realize that we are human, things will from time to time get missed. Should this happen, email or call us within 48 hours and we will correct the error at no charge.

Recurring Service Discount

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

Rate Increases

Client’s cleaning rate adjustments may be made at any time during the year should there be changes to the frequency of the 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. The customer’s rate shall be increased annually, by an amount not-to-exceed 10% of the client’s current rate.

Lockouts

The client shall make the service location accessible to Vera Cleaners providers on the scheduled service day. If the team is locked out of the Client’s home, every effort will be made to establish contact with the Client to arrange for entry into the home, if contact is not made within 30 minutes of the arrival of the cleaning team, the scheduled cleaning will be skipped and you will be charged the full service fee. This fee is necessary to compensate the providers for unexpected lost revenue and travel time. To avoid the fee, provide us with a key or code to gain entry to your home.

Cancellations & Rescheduling

Service reliability is extremely important because we reserve a time especially for you. We request that you give us a minimum of 48 hours advance notice if you need to cancel or reschedule for, any reason, to avoid incurring a $50 cancellation fee.

If we are unable to access the home upon arrival, OR we are turned away at the door, the full service fee will be charged to compensate for cancelation/lockout.

Alarm

If your home is equipped with a security system, please ensure that it is in the off position or call our office with the code and proper directions for use. If the code should change, please let us know so you do not incur a lockout charge.

Use of Homeowner’s Tools/Equipment
