Mixed Levels in a Single Room
Sometimes, a room might have a mix of cleaning needs. Here's how we handle it:
25%
The 25% Rule
If more than 25% of a room needs a higher level of cleaning, we classify the entire room at that higher level.
If more than 25% of a room needs a higher level of cleaning, we classify the entire room at that higher level.
Example:
If most of the room looks like Level 2 (just dusty) but the doors, skirting boards, and radiators need scrubbing (more than 25% of the area), the room will be considered Level 3.
How the Booking Process Works
1
Initial Selection
When booking, you'll apply one cleaning level for the entire property on the initial form.
2
Customization
On the results page, you can adjust levels for each section of your property for more accurate pricing.
3
Verification
The cleaner will verify the level upon arrival and notify you if adjustments are needed before starting.
4
Transparency
Any additional costs must be justified by the cleaner based on the actual property condition. This is why levels are named clearly - to easily check if dirt needs a "quick wipe," "thorough wipe," or "scrub."
Conclusion
Choosing the correct cleaning level ensures that your property gets the right care and helps avoid any unexpected charges. By understanding the different cleaning levels and considering the condition of your property, you can make an informed decision and communicate effectively with your cleaning professional.
We hope this guide helps you understand our cleaning levels better. Thank you for choosing Cleanifiq!
