The most important things to know before and after your booking, in plain language. For complete terms, see our Terms of Use.
Every cleaning is backed by our satisfaction guarantee. If any area was missed or does not meet your expectations, notify us within 24 hours of your cleaning and we will arrange a complimentary return visit at no charge to you.
The cleaning professional must be allowed back into the home within one business day of the reported issue. This guarantee covers re-cleaning of missed or unsatisfactory areas and does not extend to cash refunds or credits.
Cancellations made more than 72 hours before your scheduled appointment will receive a full refund. Cancellations made within 72 hours of the scheduled start time will incur a full-service fee.
Short-notice cancellations create unfilled appointment slots that directly impact cleaning professional income. We appreciate as much advance notice as possible.
If you need to cancel or reschedule, contact your client coordinator directly, call 206-973-2515, or submit a request through our online contact form.
There is no charge for rescheduling provided it is requested more than 72 hours before your original booking time. If you cancel within 72 hours and choose to reschedule rather than forfeit your appointment, you may do so within two weeks of the original date at no additional cost.
To ensure availability for your preferred new date, please let us know as soon as plans change.
You are responsible for ensuring the cleaning professional can access your home at the scheduled time. If we cannot gain entry, we will attempt to reach you and wait up to 30 minutes to resolve the issue. If access cannot be obtained within that time, a full-service fee applies.
Providing a key or access code in advance is strongly recommended. It gives your cleaning professional scheduling flexibility and eliminates the risk of a missed appointment due to access issues.
We care about your home. Cleaning professionals on our platform operate as licensed Washington State businesses and are reviewed based on completed job performance. Even so, accidents occasionally happen, and some surfaces respond to cleaning differently depending on their age, finish, and condition.
Fixtures and surfaces that see daily use, including sinks, drain plugs, stovetops, ovens, toilets, appliances, baseboards, bath fixtures, and floors, naturally show wear over time. Cleaning can reveal that wear but does not always cause it.
If a new or recently installed item is clearly damaged as a direct result of a cleaning professional's specific action, the cleaning professional accepts direct responsibility.
If you have fragile, antique, recently installed, or high-value items in areas to be cleaned, or surfaces with specific product requirements, please let us know before your appointment.
Cleaning professionals on our platform may photograph or record conditions inside your home at the start and end of a visit. This documentation is used exclusively for service verification and to support damage or dispute resolution if a concern is raised.
Documentation is retained for 90 days following your cleaning visit and then permanently deleted, unless a claim or dispute is open, in which case it is retained until the matter is resolved.
Cleaning professionals reserve the right to decline or discontinue a cleaning if the home presents unsafe or unacceptable conditions, including the presence of pests (roaches, fleas, rodents, bed bugs), accessible firearms, illegal substances, biohazardous material, or extensive pet waste. A service fee may apply in these circumstances.
If you contact us before your appointment to disclose a condition, we can work with you on next steps and no cancellation fee will apply.
If your home has any of these conditions and you are unsure, please contact us before your appointment so we can discuss next steps.
If you need to skip a scheduled recurring cleaning (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly), please notify us at least 48 hours in advance. No fee applies for skips with sufficient notice.
Simply Clean offers a separate category of services called Home Watch and Care, including non-professional visual walk-throughs designed to give homeowners peace of mind while away from their property. These services include Safety Check, Storm and Leak Check, Forget Something?, Mailbox Check, and Water Plants.
Home Watch and Care services have their own dedicated policies covering scope and limitations, photo and video documentation, property access, liability, and cancellations. The cleaning service policies on this page do not apply to Home Watch and Care bookings.
This page provides a plain-language summary of key client-facing policies. It does not constitute the full agreement between you and Simply Clean. Your use of our services is governed by our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, which take precedence in the event of any conflict with this page.
