For the first clean, we strongly recommend that we meet you at the premises. You will be able to show us round and give specific instructions on how you want your cleaning to be done. Also, the cleaner will need to know where your cleaning supplies and equipment are stored. There will be opportunity to show your us any breakable and sensitive items you would want us to handle with care. For subsequent visits, you may agree with us the best method to access your property in your absence. Please be assured that we will take care of your premises even in your absence.
You can. This will be the Client’s decision and discretion. Spotclean Ltd recommends that an adult has to be on your premises to let the Cleaner in and lock up after the clean.
