What is the difference between general cleaning and deep cleaning?
General Cleaning - this is the type of cleaning carried out at regular domestic cleaning/housekeeping slots. It entails the type of cleaning tasks that you or your family would usually do at home on a weekly basis. So, for example; cleaning surfaces, wiping down kitchen appliances, spot-cleaning kitchen cabinets, straightening and plumping sofa cushions, vacuuming carpets, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathrooms and WC's, bed changing/making, putting laundry in the washing machine and hanging.
General domestic cleaning does not entail deep cleaning, pulling out heavy items of furniture, washing a large build-up of dishes left in sinks, oven cleaning or inside white-goods appliances.
Deeper cleaning tasks can be scheduled for regular customers, but extra time is to be booked in advance to account for the extra time that will be needed.
BIOHAZARDOUS WASTE / DECONTAMINATION CLEANS
PLEASE NOTE:
Services do not include cleaning biohazardous waste - eg. pet or human urine, faeces, blood, vomit or any other bodily fluids. Biohazard cleaning is a very specialised area of the cleaning industry and I am not professionally licenced or insured to handle/dispose of these types of waste.
My waste carriers licence only permits me to handle general household waste which can only be dealt with on-site (eg, an indoor bin emptied into an outdoor wheelie bin).
Therefore, please note that I cannot take responsibility for clearing up dog mess or cleaning out cat litter trays, bird cages etc.

Do you do ironing?
A small amount of ironing can be done on site during a regular domestic housekeeping slot, providing the time you have booked accommodates it and a fully functioning clean iron*, ironing board* and enough hangers are made available.
As a general rule, your clean will be carried out first, and if enough time is left, some ironing will be tackled until the time of your slot runs out. It is advisable to organise your garments and linens in order of priority.
However, if the ironing is your top priority, please let me know in advance and I will complete the ironing first and then do as much cleaning as possible until your slot time runs out.
However, please be aware that once your slot time expires, I must leave as there are other booked cleans that need to be attended to.
I'm afraid I don't take laundry off site to be ironed.
* I cannot be held responsible for irons that are not regularly descaled and are ejecting brown scaled water, or for soiled unwashed ironing board covers. The maintenance and cleanliness of ironing equipment is the responsibility of the client.

Do you need to visit the property beforehand?
Yes, a quick informal property visit will be required first. This is so I can:
- assess the level of work required
- note which products, materials and equipment will be needed
- estimate the length of time to complete the work
- understand the property access and parking situation
- make a note of any specific requests to tailor your needs
At this visit I may also take a few photo's as it helps to look back when preparing your quote*
*Photos at initial site visits are taken for my own business use ONLY in order to plan your service. They will not be shared with any third parties without your permission in accordance with UK GDPR law
Are you a legitimate company?
Yes, Heavenly Housekeeping is a legitimate business registered with HMRC.
Are you insured?
Yes, absolutely. I have liability insurance specific to the cleaning industry which covers up the value of £1m.
Are you DBS checked?
Yes! I appreciate it requires a lot of trust to allow tradespeople into your property, so I have been DBS checked and cleared for your peace of mind.
Do you work weekends and bank holidays?
For general regular domestic cleaning - Sorry, no. These cleans are carried out Monday - Friday only, and exclude Bank Holidays.
For big cleans such as end of tenancy cleans, builders cleans etc - It may be possible to consider a weekend or a bank holiday clean if it's an emergency and absolutely imperative the job is completed for a specific handover date, but it will be charged at a higher rate than usual and depends entirely on availability.
For holiday lets - yes, if a guest is checking out at the weekend and you have another guest checking in on the same day, a changeover service will be performed at the weekend.

How do you take payment?
I accept cash or bank transfer payments.
I don't currently take debit/credit card payments. These incur further business banking charges that would have to be added on to rates, so I only take these forms of payment.
Receipts are always be provided and will be sent in digital form, either to your email address or mobile phone.
Cash payments are due on the day of the clean. Bank transfer payments are due within 48hrs of your invoice being issued.

Do I need to be at the property throughout the clean?
No, you don't.
It's actually better for the property to be free of people during the period committed to your cleaning service to reduce both health & safety and public liability risks, and to implement public health considerations. It helps to prevent accidents, disruptions, obstructions and/or delays to the work. It's important to be allowed to work freely throughout the property to perform to the best standard as safely and efficiently as possible.
However, I understand some people will need to be at the property. In circumstances where you must be at property, it's politely requested that you stay in one room during the clean or refrain from using the rooms being cleaned. Arrangements can be made to swap rooms when it's necessary.

Do I need to give you a key?
Yes, if there can't be anyone available at the property to give me access at the arranged start time of the clean, a key should be provided. You can either give me one to keep, or you can just give me access to a key safe located at the property.
Please be assured that all keys are held securely, and I also have key-holding cover included in my liability insurance.

Do you do Biohazard or Decontamination cleans?
Unfortunately I do not include biohazard or decontamination cleaning in my services. Biohazard and decontamination cleaning is a very specialised area of the cleaning industry. I am not professionally licenced or insured to handle/dispose of these types of waste or the chemicals used in the clean-up process. Legally, I cannot undertake these kinds of cleans.
Can you take away and dispose of our waste?
Unfortunately, no. Due to the area of the cleaning industry I work in, my waste carriers licence only permits me (or any subcontractors I may hire to work alongside me) to handle general waste on-site ONLY.
For example, I can empty indoor bins into outdoor wheelie bins, and I can take wheelie bins to the kerb of a property perimeter on council waste collection days and bring them back in. Or I can clear up and bag dust & debris from a builders clean and put it in a designated skip.
But I cannot take waste away from the immediate site of the property or transport any in my vehicle. I cannot take waste to recycling points or centres. I can only transport waste I have personally created in the course of my own work (eg. empty cleaning product bottles, used disposable gloves etc).

Do you have Terms & Conditions?
Yes, but each set of T&Cs (or Service Agreements) are specific to the job in question, as each job is individual.
T&Cs are sent to clients before any service commences, so you know exactly what to expect before making any commitment to book.
Should you choose to book, you choose to accept the terms and conditions, so it is strongly advised you read and understand them in full. While I endeavour to make T&C's & Service Agreements crystal clear, if there is anything you are unsure of, please get in touch for clarification before making a booking.
Heavenly Housekeeping is a legitimate business operating legally within the cleaning trade, so T&C's apply to everyone who books a service and your understanding on this matter is appreciated. Thank you.
