Policies
This agreement represents a Service Level Agreement (“SLA” or “Agreement”) between Linda Soto Cleaning, LLC (hereafter known as the Company) and the client named in this estimate (hereafter known as the Client).
The Client desires to have certain cleaning, housekeeping, and/or janitorial services performed at the Client’s residential location.
Therefore, the parties at this moment agree as follows:
Linda Soto Cleaning, LLC guarantees 100% satisfaction from the client for all services completed.
If Client is unsatisfied with any work completed by the cleaning crew, Client agrees to notify the Company the same day services were rendered so that we can correct any discrepancies found by Client.
The Client agrees to adhere to a schedule consisting of routine services rendered on the same day and time for consistency. If the Client must make changes to the agreed schedule due to an unforeseen event, the Company agrees to reschedule the services for the same week at no extra charge.
If the Client cancels services for the entire week, fees will be applied based on the rescheduled date.
The Client agrees to make any cancellations by the Friday before the scheduled week of service.
There will be a $50.00 cancellation fee made for any cancellations made by the client less than 24 hours before the service.
If the Client cancels all services for a period of two months or longer, Deep Cleaning will be required to continue regular cleaning services.
The Client must provide the Company with a spare key or inform the Company where the cleaning crew can find a spare key to gain entrance to the residence. The client will also provide the Company with any alarm or entry codes.
If the cleaning crew is unable to gain entrance to the location, it will be considered a last-minute cancellation, and the Client will incur a $50.00 fee.
The Company agrees not to answer the door nor allow visitors in a while servicing the Client’s residence.
The Client agrees to give the Company notice if anyone enters the residence while the Client is off-site, and the cleaning crew is servicing the residence.
Once the Company completes the initial Deep Cleaning of the Client’s residence, the Company will assign the Client a cleaning crew.
For consistency, and whenever possible, the same cleaning crew will be assigned to service the Client. If, at any time, the same cleaning crew cannot service the Client due to time off or termination. It is important to note that the Company assures the Client that detailed notes of the services will be taken and added to the Company’s data log on Jobber to guarantee 100% satisfaction with services.
If a new cleaning crew must be assigned, the Company agrees to provide the new cleaning crew with all detailed Jobber instructions to service the Client’s residence.
The Client agrees to allow the Company to adjust the residence’s temperature as needed depending on the weather conditions.
For optimized cleaning services, the Client will be responsible for preparing for the cleaning crew by completing the following:
Ensure that everything that is considered garbage is put into garbage bins. The cleaning crew will never assume anything is garbage and will not throw anything away. Anything in garbage bins will be disposed of.
For efficient vacuuming, all belongings, such as clothing, shoes, or any personal belongings, should be removed from the floor, under the bed, and in small areas. Due to vacuum clogging, any room that contains personal belongings on the floor will not be vacuumed.
Ensure that all personal belongings or items have been removed from the floor. If you would prefer the cleaning crew to pick up, organize, and tidy up during your scheduled day, please notify us in advance. Note that if such services are requested, your services may need to be extended, and extra charges will be added.
For sanitation purposes, provide 10 microfiber rags and towels. Rags and towels must be washed and available for the cleaning crew to utilize.
Pet and human waste are considered biohazards due to the potential for disease. As a result, cleaning them requires additional personal protection equipment/ supplies. To avoid this extra charge, please make sure the home is absent from any pet or human waste before our arrival.
The cleaning crew cannot move furniture heavier than 50 lbs. Any furniture heavier than 50 lbs is subject to damage to floors, walls, and furniture. We recommend that customers advise cleaning crews of any delicate furniture, including all old furniture, that may lead to damaging the floor.
Garbage Disposal: Our standard cleaning services do not include hauling garbage unless specifically requested by the client in advance. If the client wishes to include this service, it must be communicated and arranged in advance, and additional fees will apply. Please note that we do not have on-site dumpsters, and arrangements need to be made for proper disposal, incurring extra fees.
Miscellaneous services can be completed upon request. Use Jobber to request any extra services needed, and we will send you a quote. Once you have accepted the quote, we will schedule the service. Additional services should be requested the Friday before your scheduled services.
