FAQ
We make all of our cleaning products in house! We use a natural eco friendly plant based all purpose concentrate, vinegar solutions, hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, citric acid, essential oils and good old fashioned elbow grease 😉
The essential oil scents we use are lemon, eucalyptus and peppermint. We are happy to substitute with unscented products, or a combo of any of the following: lemon, eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint.
We provide all cleaning supplies except toilet brushes.
You can check out a list of what all our packages include, we also offer a range of add ons including:

Cancellation and Reschedule Policy: If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please let us know by phone, text, or email as soon as possible. Our hours of operation are Monday- Friday from 8:00- 4:00 pm (We are closed for the Holiday Closures listed above). Any cancellation requests received outside of business hours will be treated as received the next business day at 8:00 am.
- Cancel/reschedule 48 hours before your appt: No charge
- Cancel/reschedule 25-47 hours before your appt: A fee of $35.00
- Cancel/reschedule 24 hours before your clean: Up to 50% of your service price
- Same-day cancellation/reschedule/lockout: Up to 100% of your service price
If you canceled your clean, your next service will be at the next tier frequency price. For example, if you have an every 2-week visit, and you skip this clean, and it will now be 4 weeks between visits, that cleaning will be at the every 4-week rate. This will allow us to provide you with a complete and thorough cleaning on that visit. This does not apply to visits that are rescheduled within 5 business days of the original visit.

No. You can choose to provide access instructions for our entry/exit by keypad code, hidden key, remote access etc. If you decide to keep a key on file with us - we store all keys in a secure lockbox at our office that requires team members' personal profiles to scan and take/release custody of the keys so we know where they are at all times.
It depends on the home and service being provided, but we generally schedule visits to be about an hour and a half and never more than 3 hours.
