    If you're not happy with your cleaning, please let us know within 24 hours of your clean! We will come out and re-clean (within a 7-day window) at no additional charge to you. Customer satisfaction is our number one priority.

  • What do I need to do to prepare for my Move In/Out Cleaning?

    Please ensure that your home is empty, as that will allow us to clean every nook and cranny to perfection. We don't mind throwing out a garbage bag or two but if you need us to remove trash, it needs to be under 30lbs and we will charge by the hour for trash removal at a rate of $75 per hour. Additionally, San Diego is a city with extreme weather. Please ensure that the heating/cooling is on for your move in/out cleaning. Our cleaners cannot work in extreme temperatures without climate control and they also need to be able to turn on the lights and plug in their vacuum.

  • Is my billing information kept safe and secure?

    We have three levels of security in place. First off our booking page is protected by extended validation SSL. Secondly, our booking form has its own layer of 256 bit security. Third, credit card transactions are processed by Stripe and is layered on their own 256 security protocol. In addition, no credit card numbers are stored in our system (only a token that allows us to charge the card). Rest assured we take security very seriously.

  • What is your cancellation/reschedule policy?

    Life happens and that's okay! In the event that something comes up, we just ask that you respond to our reminders and let us know at least 48 hours in advance. Cancellations made less than 48 hours in advance will be charged 25% of the total booking price. Cancellations made less than 24 hours in advance will be charged 50% of the total booking price.
