Terms of Service
Welcome to Hand Cleaned. By accessing our website or booking and using our cleaning services, you agree to these Terms of Service.
Our Services
Hand Cleaned provides cleaning services according to the services, packages, prices, and availability displayed on our website or communicated to you when making a booking.
The exact scope of a cleaning service may vary depending on the service selected, the condition of the property, and any specific requests agreed upon before the appointment.
Bookings
Customers are responsible for providing accurate information when making a booking, including:
- ✓Name and contact information
- ✓Service address
- ✓Preferred date and time
- ✓Type of cleaning service requested
- ✓Relevant information about property or cleaning requirements
A booking is considered confirmed only after Hand Cleaned has accepted or confirmed the appointment.
Pricing and Payment
Prices will be communicated or displayed before the service is provided whenever reasonably possible.
Additional charges may apply when a property or service requires work beyond the agreed scope, including unusually heavy cleaning, excessive buildup, additional rooms or areas, or special cleaning requests. Any significant additional charges should be communicated to the customer before the additional work is performed where reasonably practicable.
Cancellations and Rescheduling
Customers should contact Hand Cleaned as soon as possible if they need to cancel or reschedule an appointment.
Our cancellation, rescheduling, and no-show policies may result in fees depending on how close to the scheduled appointment the change is made.
Cancellation Policy:
Bookings must be cancelled at least one business day (24 hours) in advance. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice will incur a $60 + GST cancellation fee.
Access to the Property
Customers are responsible for providing reasonable access to the property at the scheduled time.
If our cleaners cannot access the property because of missing keys, incorrect access information, or other circumstances outside our control, the appointment may be treated as a cancellation or missed appointment.
Customer Responsibilities
Customers must provide a reasonably safe working environment. Customers should inform Hand Cleaned in advance about:
- Hazardous materials or substances
- Fragile or valuable items
- Pets or animals
- Areas requiring special instructions
- Known safety hazards
- Surfaces/materials requiring special cleaning
We reserve the right to decline or stop a service if conditions present a reasonable safety risk to our staff or others.
Valuables and Fragile Items
Customers should secure cash, jewelry, important documents, valuables, and fragile items before the cleaning service begins.
Hand Cleaned should not be held responsible for damage to items that were not reasonably identifiable as fragile or that were improperly secured, except where liability cannot legally be excluded.
Cleaning Results
While we aim to provide thorough and professional cleaning services, results may vary depending on the condition, age, material, and existing damage of surfaces and items.
Some stains, odors, buildup, discoloration, or damage may not be completely removable through ordinary cleaning methods.
Damage or Complaints
If you believe an item or property has been damaged during a cleaning service, please contact Hand Cleaned as soon as possible and provide details and, where appropriate, photographs.
We will review the concern and work with the customer toward a reasonable resolution.
Prohibited Activities
Customers may not request that our staff perform services that are illegal, unsafe, or outside the agreed scope of our cleaning services.
We may refuse a request or terminate a service where necessary for safety, legal, or operational reasons.
