We ask for a minimum of 48 hours notice. Clean POV (hereafter known as CPOV or “we”) may also cancel at any time for any reason with 24 hour notice and will rebook in the next spot available. 6 month contract is in place. This time will allow us to re-arrange our schedules as needed. If that time frame is not respected- there will be cancellation fees applicable- monthly total service fee agreed upon if this is contact is broken.  We also ask for a month notification to avoid regular payment if you are on a regular programmed service with us. Our company plans by accepting new clients in based on fixed spots, and our many flexible workers within budget accordingly to ensure their financial commitments for their families and attracting and retaining the very best who enjoy our type of work. We all know when we are planning vacations, such advance notice allows up to back fill in your spot and also respectful to our relationship and business needs.  

Good Communication:  The best way to assure that you receive excellent service, is to let us know how what’s working and what we may need to tweak- life changes and so do our needs! Feel free to call or email us at any time, and we’ll make sure that your concerns and requests are taken care of. We also regularly review all service plans.   We reserve the right to alter or modify these terms at any time in which you will be given the revised Agreement and your continued use of our service implies agreement with these terms. Clean POV agrees to provide cleaning services to you as per your request.  The charges for our service are for the agreed dollar amount for a team of our House Managers (hereafter known as Clean POV Team members) the agreed time allows CPOV to send as little or a lot of team members to complete the project.  The charge is for the amount of work hours reserved for you for this job and not for any specific outcome. In the event that our cleaning team members complete the job in less time than the maximum reserved, which may sometimes be possible, the charge will be adjusted (since this time block has been reserved for your job we will seek to complete as much as possible within the window). Please note that for an average size home a typical move out cleaning or a deep cleaning may take in excess of 4- 6 work hours up to a maximum 10 plus at times- agreed time and if we are unable to complete the work additional time block will be needed to rebook with Clean POV.  A regular weekly or every other week cleaning in a typical home may take in excess of 3- 4 work hours. Our team members will do the best possible job they can in the time they have available. Since the condition of each homes will vary, it is possible that we may not be able to complete the job in the time available. In such a case additional time may be required at an additional charge. (we will discuss properly prior)   If you choose not to have additional time then our team members will do the best possible job, they can in the time available and your priorities indicated at quote intake time. We will not exceed the max. of the quote provided and provide full details on our checklists of all work complete. There are no refunds. By using our service, you agree to the terms of this agreement and agree to pay the total due to us. All agreements are contingent upon strikes, accidents or delays beyond our control. Any changes to rate and/or time, be it verbal or in writing will not affect the substance of this agreement and all the terms herein will still apply with the new rate/time. By checking the intake form you have agreed to the terms and have read all for service.  

LICENSED, INSURED CPOV is a professional cleaning service that is fully licensed, and insured.   QUALITY OF SERVICE For your convenience, and quality control, we can leave you with a checklist indicating the various services we provide each time we cleaned your home; we also have them available and can send you. Our management from time to time will conduct random on-site inspections. If, after your inspection, you find our service unsatisfactory, please contact us within 24 hours so we can correct the issue the next day. Note- we will not come back for areas we were not able to get to or complete. This is only applicable to areas we cleaned as per our checklist. Refunds are not offered as we will try to correct any mistakes or missed services.  

JOB START/END TIMES For each home it is called a project- jobs, we charge a flat rate and times of arrival vary depending on how our day looks.

Preparation for Your Appointment: How to get the best from us- We do require that you prepare for our visit by straightening – tidy – lift things off floors and a general counter clear beforehand. We’re glad to do the picking up for you. If you expect us to be doing much picking up, please let us know when you schedule service. Otherwise, it may reduce the time spent on other cleaning tasks. Desks that have a large amount of paperwork for instance will not be cleaned. We would appreciate items were picked up off the floor and dressers and counters were organized before we arrive. This will maximize efficiency and minimize the time we spend to clean your house. If you prefer that our cleaning team remove these items, we will add the additional billing time and charge you accordingly.

Also, please secure cash, jewelry and other small valuables. We also ask in the summer months if you could set your air conditioner at an appropriate temperature. If for some reason you do not want a particular room cleaned, please just leave a note and close the door of that particular room.

For safety reasons, we ask that your children be supervised while our team and equipment are present in your home; however, we prefer that no one is in the house while our cleaners are present so we can work to full potential with no distractions and ensure our eye for cleaning is kept sharp on tasks done and to do.  

THE CLEANING TEAM We provide all equipment and supplies. Our House Managers have bags tagged CPOV to identify themselves. Our House Managers can be in teams or solo. We make every effort to keep the same team leader assigned to your home, but cannot guarantee it. Illness, vacations, etc, can all result in a change of team or change of cleaners on a team.   With the nature of the service-based industry we do our best to ensure a trained and approved house manager is briefed on your home work order to best serve. We also experience some busier days than others so we ask for 3 specific days of the week that best work for your home and we use that when building our schedule monthly. You will receive a notification of change from time to time and reminders Fridays before the week of scheduled cleaning. IF any questions please contact home office at info@cleanpov.com. We use House Managers who are known to us and/or have good references, our aim being to ensure that all our personnel are reliable, discreet and honest.  If at any time your allocated cleaner is not available, we will use our best efforts to provide another member of our team. Our teams vary from job to job. When more than one person is at the job, the quoted time -- which was given in person hours -- is lessened by the number of people. For example, if you were scheduled for a two-hour service and two cleaners are assigned to your job, the cleaning should be completed in one hour or two person hours.In addition, cleaners are unable to be hired aside from Clean POV or may not solicit any clients who hire Clean POV. They will be subjected to considerable fines for could appear in small claims court for damages.  HIRING OF Clean POV- loyalty and trust All of our cleaners have signed a “Non-Compete Agreement” with CPOV. Therefore, they are prohibited from soliciting business from any client on his/her own behalf or on behalf of any third party during their employment with CPOV or for (2) two years following leaving or termination of employment, without written approval from CPOV. Therefore, you agree not to hire past or present cleaning team members of CPOV for a period of not less than 2 years from the date the team member last worked for CPOV. A great deal of time and resources are put into hiring our staff. However, in the event you feel you must hire a team member of CPOV in spite of this agreement, then a $2,500.00 placement fee is due immediately upon employment of the past/present team member, regardless of whether the employment is regular or on a contract basis.  

EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIES: We provide our own cleaning supplies and equipment including vacuums, mops, and cleaning products. Should you choose to supply specific products for our House Manager to use then you agree to take responsibility for the outcome. Our brand is all about eco friendly and we take our stewardship and leadership in the industry serious. The products we use must be eco-friendly, people staff children pet friendly. Products such as – Mrs. Meyers, Pink Solution, Terra20, Melaleuca, Norwex are our staples, Vinegar – Dawn combo and essential oils like lemon, lemongrass, orange, could be used. Please note: we always use our vacuum as we know how it works and are trained on our own House Managers.   (Should you wish for our company and teams to use products you provide we will not be held accountable and responsible for end results.) Note- from time to time our move outs or deep cleans may require more enhanced products and we will seek the best within our brand concept and plan. A list of what to have on hand-if you want us to use your products: All Purpose/ multi-surface cleaner- eco brand a must. Tile/ hardwood/ laminate flooring cleaner Bathroom Cleaner/ Soap Scum CleanerDusters/ Microfiber ClothsPaper towels / Cloths of preferenceBodily fluids: We do not clean animal cages, litter boxes, animal droppings, human or pet feces, urine, vomit, soiled clothing or similar biohazards.  We will clean around boxes, etc. but cannot by OSHA standards clean up actual bodily fluids.Cleaning is done assuming all surfaces are sealed, i.e. countertops, floors, etc. If you are aware of any surface that is not sealed, please notify us so that we may take appropriate actions.  

CONDUCT- accepting deliveries: Our cleaners are advised not to answer the telephone or doorbell. Their only purpose while in your home is to provide the agreed upon services you have allowed us into your home for. It is our policy that our teams do not smoke or eat in your house.  TRAINING AND SUPERVISION :New cleaning members are assigned to trainers who supervise them on their first several cleanings. After a formal review with the trainer, the cleaner is then assigned to a team or allowed to work on their own.Photos: Our team may or may not take before and after photos during the initial clean to show progress, use as training or to flag a notable issue to home office. We may follow up or keep on file for reporting purposes. Our house managers can from time to time make house improvement suggestions or recommendation for improvement, awareness or health issues. We will never post these to social media – but for some dramatic work we may with your permission use as part of our marketing purposes. If you do not want this please advise.  

ARRIVAL & DEPARTURE TIME: Estimated Arrival Time: We’ll give you an estimated window of arrival. Our staff will email to let you know if they’re significantly off schedule (more than an hour early or late). While we schedule for travel time, we can’t control traffic conditions, and earlier clients’ appointments may take more or less time than scheduled, or be cancelled. You may request a “first appointment of the day”, and we’ll accommodate you if available (even with these, traffic sometimes trips us up!). We’ll also try to accommodate requests for “not before” or “not after” a specific time. You don’t have to be home to receive service, as long as you provide for entry Move in- Move outs / Rentals CPOV prefers a window of a minimum of 5 hours to clean between renters to ensure your home is properly cleaned. The usual times are 10AM to 3PM however per this Agreement we will set the exact times in writing. With this said, CPOV reserves the right to stay an extra (2) hours after the check-in date to clean for ANY reason. Duration of Regularly Scheduled Appointments: The amount of time spent cleaning may vary somewhat from appointment to appointment. If we find that we’re spending less time on average than we had estimated, we’ll reduce your fee. If we find that we’re spending more time than anticipated, we may need to increase your fee.  In either case, we’ll contact you and come to a mutual agreement. Please contact our office if you’d like to add or remove cleaning tasks, so that we can adjust the time and fee accordingly. You’re always welcome to prioritize tasks for your cleaner(s). Having the Same Team: We’ll assign you to a team leader who will come to know your specific needs and preferences. We’ll substitute when necessary, for illness, vacation, turnover, etc. We may need to substitute during busy holidays, although we try to avoid this. With all substitutions, we’ll do our best to send at least one person who already knows your home. Team assistants may change over time as we promote them to team leaders.  Sidewalk and Entrance Safety:   During the winter months Clean POV requires you to have any sidewalks or walkways free of ice to prevent slip and fall injuries. If we arrive to your home and are unable to safely access the house we will have to cancel or reschedule. This is for our team’s safety and the ability to continue service for everyone in a timely manner. SECURITY ALARMS: If your home is equipped with a security system, please ensure that it is in the “OFF” position or inform our office of the codes and input sequence before your scheduled cleaning. Please be sure to notify our office if this code changes. KEYS Please ensure your home is accessible to us. We send all reminders to ensure you are prepared and in the know.Our policy is to lock the door while we are cleaning and to not allow access to unknown people. For safety reasons, please don’t rely on our cleaning teams to let in workmen during the time we are in your home. Suspected Theft: We screen our staff carefully upon hiring. Theft by household workers is rare, and usually items believed to be stolen are eventually found in the home. Most people are honest; however, we can’t guarantee that theft will never happen, and we want to assure you that we’ll cooperate in any way we can in the event that you suspect that our staff has taken something from your home. If you suspect a theft has taken place: – Contact us immediately so that we can talk with our staff. They may have seen the item, or the conversation may give us additional useful information. – Search your home carefully. – If you conclude that the item has been stolen, we urge you to contact your local Police and request an investigation. We know that the police frequently do not follow up on this sort of report, so we strongly urge, as a precaution, that you keep your valuables out of sight and in a safe location.
