What to Confirm When Booking Domestic Cleaning

A domestic cleaning visit should be based on your home's needs and the tasks agreed in advance. Specify rooms, priorities, surfaces, schedule and access, then confirm the quote and any optional services before booking.

Describe the home and priorities

Share property type, room and bathroom count, condition, floors, pets, sensitivities and areas needing attention. Explain whether you want regular maintenance, a one-off reset or a deeper clean.

Confirm inclusions and optional services

Ask whether kitchen and bathroom surfaces, floors, dusting and bins are included. Oven interiors, carpets, windows, upholstery, laundry and other specialist tasks may be separate; request a written list.

Arrange timing and access

Discuss visit frequency, preferred appointment windows, keys or access codes, parking and pets. Confirm how rescheduling, cancellations, payment and service concerns are handled.

Prepare safely

Secure valuables, share care instructions for delicate finishes and identify items that should not be moved. Keep cleaning products and equipment stored safely. The provider can clean agreed areas but cannot promise a stain, health or bond outcome.
