Maverick Maids has a cleaning checklist that your cleaning professional will follow. You can leave additional instructions by contacting us, or by providing instructions during your cleaning.

The following extra services are available if selected at checkout: Inside the fridge, inside the oven, green cleaning, inside windows, basement, move in/move out, laundry, and inside cabinets.

Note: To protect the safety of our professionals, we cannot perform the following: cleaning that requires climbing on ladders, exterior windows, mould removal, deep stain removal, insect and pest removal, cleaning pet messes, cleaning blinds, and items that require heavy lifting.

One-off Cleaning

You can schedule one-off cleanings at any time. Please note discounts are available for recurring cleaning (and with recurring cleaning you benefit from convenient recurring service with the same cleaning professional)

Please note that we are unable to guarantee your deposit. In addition, your cleaning professional is unable to move heavy furniture or climb ladders, as per our safety policy.

Assigning team members to house cleaning appointments is a complicated dance as we have 30+ team members servicing 1,100 clients (new and recurring), all spread out across the United States. Each of our cleaners has specific attributes and own “superpowers” for different types of house cleaning and different types of homes. Each client also has a busy life with family events, health issues, or vacations influencing their availability.

Our main goal is to make you happy. And we do realize the best way to do it is to send you the team that had already succeeded in that. It’s also the easiest thing for the company and the preferred option for the cleaners themselves. However, sometimes it’s nearly impossible to do because of the above-mentioned factors.

It is possible to always have your favorite team if you:

• are very flexible on your cleaning times.
• inform us how important it is for you to have your team.
• treat your team with kindness and respect.

We have several clients enjoying this happy arrangement. Even without any special arrangements, most clients get their regular team 80% of the time. For the other 20%, all of our cleaners are fantastic. You may discover – as many of our clients do – you love the new house cleaning team even more than your prior team! Also, we back our work with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If you tried another team and didn’t like it, we will address any issues and/ or issue a refund.

1) What conditions are we talking about? A home that hasn’t been cleaned thoroughly for several months or years, especially when there are multiple residents and pets. And the home that has several of these factors: many surfaces covered in clutter, spoiled food, mold, grease on the walls, fur covering the walls and appliances, disconnected water or electricity, animal waste indoors, strong odor of animals or cigarettes.

2) What happens if your home falls into this category? If our crew determines upon arrival that your home is a bit outside of anticipated range, you have 3 options:

a) We spend the anticipated amount of time (or somewhat more) than a regular home would take, and “do what we can.” Generally it’s 4 hours of work by 2 or 3 cleaners. You can prioritize what’s most important for you (e.g. kitchen and bathrooms). We won’t be able to meet all of the items on our checklist for deep cleaning (e.g. window tracks, cabinets, lighting fixtures), but most clients are very happy with the results.

b) Alternatively, you can select our “heavy duty” extra. When you do it before the job, we will be better prepared to tackle the scope of work and send cleaners with modified equipment and supplies, larger group of people and for longer amount of time. It costs extra, but your home will be in a drastically different condition after we’re done. If you haven’t selected it ahead of time, we will offer it as an option if we can accommodate it. E.g. canceling or moving your crew’s subsequent booking, sending more cleaners and equipment, etc. Most of the time we can pull it off.

c) You can simply cancel the job. We will not charge you anything.

Also, it depends on what condition your home is in. Some people keep operating room conditions at the home and just require a touch-up or additional services. Others have three teenagers, a dog, and two jobs. We don’t judge you when we find an old slice of pizza stuck behind the dresser. We’re here to help. But it may take us a little longer to bring your home into tip-top shape.

Generally, it will take between one to three hours for a smaller home cleaning service and two to four hours for a larger home cleaning service. No worries, though, we charge a flat rate, so there is no additional charge even if it takes longer!

You can pay for your Maverick Maids cleaner to provide all other cleaning products when booking. If you prefer to supply your own products, please ensure you have the following:

• A household disinfectant spray (look for something that ‘kills 99.9%’ of bacteria/viruses).
• Bathroom cleaner.
• Bin bags.
• Duster.
• Floor cleaner.
• Glass cleaner.
• Kitchen cleaner.
• Laundry detergent.
• Limescale remover.
