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 &/or terminate service because of safety concerns, inappropriate or uncomfortable situations, weapons on-premises, severe clutter & 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 & you will be charged a $100 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

  • Home Organizing

  • Clean inside oven


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, Molly Mops House Cleaning Services  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
We give instant prices based off the home being accurately represented at the time of booking, but we may adjust the price based on the actual condition of the house. Should the cleaner asses upon arrival that the property requires a more in depth cleaning the cost of the job may be subject to increase. 

​​

  • This will not be done without a conversation between our customer respresentatives and the client. And the client WILL NEED to give consent and approval.

  • If we are unable to reach you, the provider will have to leave & you will be charged a $100 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. Molly Mops Home Cleaning Services will contact the client to discuss price or service revisions if the cleaning time differs significantly. â€‹


Payments

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 24 hours and the cleaner(s) will return and handle any issues at no additional charge.
