Service Agreement for Clean Crusade

Introduction
This Service Agreement outlines the mutual responsibilities and obligations between Clean Crusade and our valued customers.

Flexibility of Service
Clean Crusade is committed to providing flexible cleaning solutions. We do not require our customers to commit to a minimum number of cleaning sessions.

Cancellation Policy
Customers have the liberty to cancel any scheduled service. To do so, we kindly request one week's advance notice to ensure smooth adjustments to our scheduling.

General Limits, Conditions, and Liability

Insurance and Liability Coverage
Clean Crusade ensures the protection of our clients through a comprehensive liability insurance policy.

Employee Background Checks
We conduct thorough background checks on all our employees to maintain trust and safety.

Tax Compliance and Reporting
Clean Crusade is diligent in collecting and reporting all necessary taxes for our cleaning services to the appropriate local, state, and federal agencies. This adherence safeguards our customers from any IRS tax liabilities related to the income earned by our cleaners.

Workers' Compensation Insurance
For added security, all our cleaners are covered by workers’ compensation insurance, which is applicable for any injuries they might sustain during their duties, whether inside or outside your home.

Securing Personal Valuables and Firearms

Responsibility for Valuables
When utilizing any in-home service, including ours, it is essential for homeowners to take proactive measures for the security of their valuables. We advise that all jewelry, valuable items, and money are securely locked away. While Clean Crusade employs trustworthy individuals and conducts thorough background checks, the most effective way to ensure the safety of your valuables is through secure storage.

Small Personal Items
During normal cleaning such as vacuuming, mopping, or dusting, our staff cannot reasonably be expected to see or identify small personal items that may be left in the home. These items may be picked up, moved, or damaged in the course of routine cleaning. This includes but is not limited to retainers and dental aligners, hearing aids, jewelry, earbuds, phone chargers, and small electronics. Clean Crusade is not responsible for loss or damage to such items. Customers are responsible for ensuring these belongings are stored safely prior to service.

Firearm Safety
In households with firearms, we kindly request that these are securely locked away. This precaution ensures the safety of both our staff and all residents of the home.

Security Alarm Policy
Clean Crusade's responsibility regarding security alarms is limited. In instances where a local police department is dispatched due to an activated alarm that our staff cannot deactivate, either due to insufficient or unclear instructions provided, Clean Crusade will not be responsible for any resulting charges.

Pet Escape Policy
At Clean Crusade, our cleaners are trained to minimize the risk of pets escaping. They practice diligence by promptly closing doors upon entering and exiting homes and avoiding leaving doors open for extended periods.

Pest and Infestation Policy
Clean Crusade reserves the right to pause or discontinue service if any infestation is identified that could pose a health, safety, or transfer risk. This includes, but is not limited to, bed bugs, fleas, cockroaches, rodents, or other pests. If such a condition is discovered, services will be halted immediately and the client will be referred to a licensed pest control provider for treatment before rescheduling.

Clean Crusade is not responsible for any infestation already present in a client’s home, nor for the possible transfer of pests to, from, or between client locations through our staff, equipment, or supplies. Clients acknowledge that there is an inherent risk of unknowingly transferring pests between environments and accept that pest infestations must be addressed exclusively by licensed pest control providers. Such matters fall outside the scope of cleaning services.

Limitation of Liability
Despite our careful practices, Clean Crusade cannot assume responsibility for any pets that may escape during the moments our cleaners are entering or exiting your home.

Policy on Pet Waste and Urine Cleanup

Handling of Pet Feces
Our cleaning services do not include the pickup of pet feces. This extends to tasks such as emptying litter boxes, which fall outside the scope of our cleaners' responsibilities.

Cleaning Urine Stains
In cases of urine on hardwood floors, our cleaners will mop and clean the area. However, it is important to note that if the urine has penetrated the wood and caused discoloration, our cleaning may not be able to remove the stain. For such instances, we recommend consulting a flooring specialist.

Preparation Guidelines for Cleaning Day

Home Tidying Before Service
We encourage our clients to allocate a bit of time on the eve of their scheduled cleaning to tidy their homes. This preparation includes clearing floors, countertops, and tabletops to ensure our cleaners have unobstructed access to these areas. Additionally, removing dirty dishes from the kitchen sink is greatly appreciated.

Handling Minor Clutter
If our cleaners encounter a few scattered items such as clothes, toys, or general clutter, they will organize these items to a reasonable extent. This courtesy also extends to a small number of dishes left out in the kitchen.

Limitations with Excessive Clutter
However, if we find that entire surfaces like tables, dressers, or counters are fully covered with items, or if there are large piles of clothes on the floor, our policy is to not clean those cluttered areas. Our policy is simple: "Any area completely covered with clutter will not be cleaned."

Policy on Using Homeowner's Cleaning Equipment and Supplies

Liability for Customer-Supplied Equipment
If a customer requests or requires Clean Crusade to use customer-provided vacuums, cleaning equipment, supplies, chemicals, or other products, the customer assumes the risks associated with the use of those items. Clean Crusade is not responsible for damage to customer-provided equipment or for damage resulting from the use, condition, malfunction, or suitability of customer-provided equipment or products.

Training and Familiarity with Homeowner's Supplies
Our employees are trained and familiar with the equipment and cleaning materials provided by Clean Crusade. However, this familiarity does not extend to equipment, vacuums, cleaning supplies, chemicals, or solvents provided by the homeowner.

Assumption of Risk by Homeowner
By opting to use their own cleaning supplies and equipment, the homeowner acknowledges and assumes all risks and potential problems. This includes both direct and indirect damage that may arise from the use of equipment, supplies, vacuums, solvents, solutions, chemicals, or any other items provided by them.

Dusting Services and Guidelines

Quality of Dusting Services
Clean Crusade prides itself on the effectiveness of our dusting services. Utilizing microfiber rags, specialized dusting sprays, and expert techniques, our cleaners efficiently capture and remove dust from various surfaces.

Initial Dust Settling
For homes that haven't been professionally dusted recently, it's common to observe dust resettling on surfaces shortly after cleaning. This phenomenon is particularly noticeable during initial cleanings. Over several visits, as our service continues, you'll likely notice a significant reduction in dust resettlement.

Height Limitations for Dusting
There are practical limits to the areas our cleaners can dust. We do not dust items located on shelves or walls beyond the reach of a cleaner standing on a 2-step ladder. While we employ extension poles for high dusting in rooms, we avoid high dusting of items that are precarious or wall-hung, especially if they cannot be securely held with one hand during the dusting process. This policy ensures the safety of both our staff and your belongings.

Cleaning Showers and Tubs

Dealing with Lime, Calcium, and Soap Scum
Accumulation of lime, calcium, and soap scum is common in showers and tubs. Clean Crusade's cleaning solutions are highly effective in cutting through these deposits. However, it's important to note that completely removing these deposits might require two to three cleaning sessions.

Mold and Mildew Challenges
Mold and mildew, being organic, can penetrate deep into and behind grout or caulking. While our cleaning products are capable of removing surface stains, eradicating mold and mildew entirely may necessitate professional re-grouting or re-caulking by the homeowner. This process is essential for a complete and long-lasting solution to these issues.

Policy on Repairs and Replacement of Damaged Items

Handling Accidents
While accidents are infrequent at Clean Crusade, we are committed to addressing any incidents promptly and responsibly.

Repair as Primary Solution
In the event of damage, our foremost approach is to repair the affected item. We ensure that all repairs meet industry standards, prioritizing restoration to its original condition.

Replacement of Irreparable Items
If an item is deemed irreparable, our office team will take the necessary steps to coordinate its replacement. We strive to resolve such matters efficiently to maintain customer satisfaction and trust.

Damage or Breakage Disclaimer and Policies

Care and Insurance
Clean Crusade's cleaners exercise reasonable care while cleaning your home. We are insured for any damage or breakage caused by our staff's negligence. However, we are not liable for damages resulting from "normal wear and tear" or improper installation of items.

Exclusions from Liability
Certain damages that occur under specific circumstances are not covered under our liability, including but not limited to:

Carpet and Rug Snags: Snags in carpets and rugs often result from exposed loops, a consequence of normal wear and tear or furniture movement. These can be caught by the vacuum's roller brush.
Brittle Blinds: Repeated exposure to sunlight can make blinds brittle, and the strings or cords may weaken over time, leading to breakage during cleaning.
Improperly Hung Items: Items not securely attached to the wall, such as pictures, decorations, mirrors, etc., are prone to falling when dusted or wiped. We are not responsible for damage to these improperly installed items.
Valuable Items Policy: For artwork, collectibles, family heirlooms, and valuables over $500, we avoid the risk of cleaning these irreplaceable or expensive items. We request that during the new client setup, customers identify any such items that should not be cleaned or touched. It is the customer's responsibility to inform Clean Crusade in writing of any new valuable items brought into the home post-initial setup. Notifications can be sent via email to [email protected] or by mail to Clean Crusade, 960 W 78th St.
Unsealed Floors: Our standard floor cleaner is formulated for safely cleaning sealed floors, including marble and hardwood. For unsealed floors, there is a risk of water damage. In line with the National Wood Flooring Association's guidelines, hardwood floors should receive a maintenance coat every 3-5 years. Clean Crusade is not responsible for damage to hardwood floors that have not been maintained within this recommended timeframe.

Payment Policies for Cleaning Services

Payment Timing and Methods
Payment for our cleaning services is due at the time the services are rendered. Clients have the option to pay either by check or credit card.

Refund Policy
Given the subjective nature of cleaning services, Clean Crusade does not offer refunds. However, we stand by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you are not satisfied with our service, we will return to re-clean any areas of concern at no extra charge.

Returned Check Fee
A service fee of $25 will be charged for any check returned due to non-payment reasons, such as insufficient funds or a closed account. This is in addition to the required payment for the cleaning services rendered.

Late Payment Fee
All invoices are due at the time of service. Any balance not paid when due will incur a late fee of $25 or 1.5% of the unpaid balance per month (whichever is greater). This late fee will be applied each month the balance remains unpaid until the account is paid in full.

Scheduled Arrival Time for Cleanings

Arrival Windows
Cleaning appointments are scheduled using an arrival window rather than an exact arrival time. Unless otherwise specified in your appointment confirmation or reminder, our standard arrival window is two hours beginning at the appointment time you selected. For example, an appointment scheduled for 8:45 AM would typically have an arrival window of 8:45 AM to 10:45 AM.

Appointment Time Represents the Start of the Arrival Window
The appointment time shown on your schedule represents the beginning of the arrival window and should not be interpreted as a guaranteed exact arrival time. Our cleaning team may arrive at any time during the stated arrival window.

Access During the Arrival Window
Customers are responsible for ensuring that our cleaning team can access the home at any time during the scheduled arrival window. If someone must be present to provide access, that person should be available beginning at the start of the arrival window. Alternatively, customers are encouraged to provide a reliable key, door code, garage code, lockbox, or other approved method of entry.

Appointment Reminders
Your scheduled arrival window will generally be included in appointment confirmations and reminders. If a specific arrival window is provided in your appointment confirmation or reminder, that stated window will apply to that appointment.

Estimated Arrival Windows
While Clean Crusade makes every reasonable effort to arrive within the scheduled arrival window, arrival windows are estimates and cannot be guaranteed. Mobile cleaning schedules can be affected by traffic, weather, travel time, unexpected delays, and prior cleaning appointments taking more or less time than anticipated. Our cleaning team may occasionally arrive after the end of the scheduled arrival window due to circumstances that arise during the day.

Arrival Within the Scheduled Window
Arrival at any time during the scheduled arrival window is considered on time. Customers should ensure that the home is accessible throughout the entire arrival window.

Delays Beyond the Arrival Window
If we anticipate that our cleaning team will arrive after the end of your scheduled arrival window, Clean Crusade will make a reasonable effort to notify you by phone or text message and provide an updated estimated arrival time. We appreciate your flexibility when unexpected circumstances affect our schedule and will make every reasonable effort to minimize delays.

Rescheduling of Cleaning Appointments

Commitment to Scheduled Cleaning
Clean Crusade recognizes the significance of adhering to the scheduled cleaning day for your home. We strive to ensure that cleanings occur as planned.

Possible Reasons for Rescheduling
However, there are circumstances beyond our control that might necessitate rescheduling your cleaning appointment. These include, but are not limited to, severe weather conditions, traffic disruptions, and unexpected staff shortages.

Notification of Changes
In the event that your cleaning appointment needs to be moved to a different day or time due to these factors, we will promptly notify you and work to find a suitable alternative schedule. Our goal is to minimize any inconvenience while maintaining the quality and reliability of our service.

Policy on Rescheduling, Cancellation, and Lockout Fees

Flexibility in Scheduling
Clean Crusade understands that schedules can change, and we are happy to accommodate cancellations or rescheduling whenever possible.

Notice Requirement for Changes
Customers are asked to provide at least one week's notice when canceling or rescheduling a scheduled cleaning. A cancellation or rescheduling request made with less than one week's notice is considered a late cancellation or late rescheduling under this policy.

Late Cancellation or Rescheduling Fee
A cleaning that is canceled or rescheduled with less than one week's notice may be subject to a fee equal to 50% of the scheduled service charge. Short-notice changes can leave Clean Crusade unable to fill the reserved appointment time and can directly affect our cleaners' scheduled hours and earnings.

Courtesy Policy for Recurring Customers
Recurring customers are provided two courtesy late cancellations or reschedules per calendar year without a fee. Beginning with the third late cancellation or reschedule within the same calendar year, a fee equal to 50% of the scheduled service charge may apply. These courtesy occurrences apply only to cancellations and rescheduling and do not apply to lockouts or inaccessible homes.

Lockout or Inaccessible Home Fee
A lockout occurs when our cleaning team arrives at the home for a scheduled cleaning but is unable to gain access due to circumstances within the customer's control. This includes, but is not limited to, locked doors, an unavailable or incorrect key, an incorrect or non-working entry or garage code, failure to answer the door when the customer's presence is required for entry, or another customer-controlled access issue.

Access Attempts and Waiting Period
If our team is unable to gain access upon arrival, Clean Crusade will make a reasonable attempt to contact the customer. If access cannot be provided within 10 minutes of our team's arrival, or if the customer confirms that access cannot be provided, the appointment will be considered a lockout.

Lockout Fee
A lockout is subject to a fee equal to 50% of the scheduled service charge. Lockouts are separate from late cancellations and rescheduling because our cleaning team has already traveled to the property and the appointment time has already been reserved. The recurring customer courtesy cancellation policy does not apply to lockouts. The lockout fee applies even if the cleaning is subsequently rescheduled to another date. A lockout fee will not apply when the inability to access the home results solely from our cleaning team arriving after the scheduled arrival window and the customer is unable to accommodate the delayed arrival.

Unable to Service Due to Customer-Controlled Conditions
If our team arrives for a scheduled cleaning but cannot safely or reasonably perform the service because of a customer-controlled condition at the property, a fee equal to 50% of the scheduled service charge may apply. Examples may include unsafe indoor temperatures, unsecured aggressive pets, hazardous conditions, or other conditions that prevent our team from performing the scheduled service. These occurrences are separate from late cancellations and do not qualify for the recurring customer courtesy cancellation policy.

Payment of Applicable Fees
Applicable late cancellation, late rescheduling, and lockout fees may be charged to the customer's payment method on file.

Providing Reliable Access
Customers are encouraged to provide a reliable method of entry that does not require them to be present, such as a garage code, door code, lockbox, or key. Customers are responsible for ensuring that access instructions, codes, keys, and other entry methods provided to Clean Crusade are accurate and working on the scheduled service date.

Policy on Rescheduling Cleanings

Clean Crusade is dedicated to accommodating our customers' needs, including rescheduling cleaning appointments. However, it's important to be aware of the potential implications that rescheduling may have:

Price Adjustments Based on Cleaning Frequency
The cost and duration of our recurring services are contingent on the frequency of cleanings. For instance, If a bi-weekly customer skips a cleaning, resulting in a four-week interval between visits, the next cleaning will be charged at the monthly rate, which is higher due to the extended interval.

Availability Constraints
While we strive to fulfill every cleaning request, please note that there are times when cleaning dates may be fully booked. To secure an alternative date, we recommend contacting Clean Crusade at your earliest convenience. This proactive approach increases the likelihood of accommodating your rescheduling needs.

Standard vs. Deep Cleaning Recommendations

Purpose of Standard Cleans
Standard cleans are intended as maintenance services for homes that have been professionally cleaned within the last month. They focus on preserving cleanliness and addressing routine upkeep needs.

Recommendation for Initial Deep Clean
For homes that haven’t been professionally cleaned within the past month, we highly recommend scheduling an initial deep clean. This ensures our team has enough time to thoroughly address areas that may require extra attention before starting a standard cleaning routine.

Limitations of Standard Cleans for Homes Needing Extra Attention
Booking a standard clean without an initial deep clean may result in insufficient time to complete a full cleaning. If the cleaning is part of a recurring service, our team will continue the following visit, picking up where we left off. For one-time cleanings, additional time may be requested to ensure comprehensive coverage.

Why We Recommend Starting with a Deep Clean
For the best results and to meet the expectations of a well-maintained home, we encourage all customers to begin with a deep clean. This approach supports a smoother transition to standard maintenance cleans and a higher level of cleanliness consistency in the long term.

Policy on Additional Fees for Extended Cleaning Time

At Clean Crusade, our services are structured around time allocation. There may be instances where the time required to clean your home exceeds the initially planned duration. This could be due to several reasons, and our policy in such scenarios is as follows:

Reasons for Additional Time Requirements

Home Condition Variances: If your home’s condition upon arrival is significantly dirtier than average, or than we reasonably anticipated, requiring more time than initially planned.
Unusual Cleaning Challenges: Situations like excessive dirt, dust, or stains from remodeling, construction, or after a large gathering.
Using Your Own Cleaning Equipment or Supplies: When our cleaners are requested to use your personal cleaning equipment or supplies.

Communication and Consent
If we anticipate that a cleaning job will require more time due to the aforementioned factors, our first step is to try contacting you by phone before commencing the work. If we cannot reach you, our team will either clean up to the time initially purchased or may choose not to clean, depending on the situation. Importantly, we will never charge you extra without your explicit permission.

Regular Fee Adjustment for Repeated Extensions
In cases where additional cleaning time is consistently needed across multiple visits, it will be necessary to discuss an adjustment to your regular service fee to accommodate the extra time required for maintaining the cleanliness of your home as per your expectations.

Quality Control and Inspection Procedures at Clean Crusade

Conducting Audits and Inspections
To maintain high standards, Clean Crusade regularly performs random inspections and audits of our cleaning teams. These inspections might occur after the cleaning team has left your home, during the final stages of their work, or potentially throughout the entire cleaning process. This practice ensures consistent quality and adherence to our high standards.

Valuing Customer Feedback
Your feedback is a crucial component of our service quality management. We encourage you to utilize our online Quality Scorecard to share your thoughts and experiences after each cleaning session. This tool is designed to be quick and user-friendly. Your insights help us continuously monitor and improve our cleaners' performance, aiming to provide the best cleaning experience in the industry.

Use of Before and After Pictures
Occasionally, our quality inspections may involve taking before and after photographs of the areas our cleaners have worked on. These images are instrumental for training purposes, verifying the quality of our work, and showcasing our commitment to high standards. If you prefer that no pictures be taken in your home, please inform Clean Crusade in advance. We respect your privacy and preferences in this matter.

Safety and Work Conditions at Clean Crusade

Home Temperature Settings
For the safety and comfort of our cleaning staff, customers are responsible for maintaining the temperature in the home between 65 and 74 degrees Fahrenheit during the scheduled cleaning. If the temperature is outside this range when our team arrives, we may ask that it be adjusted before service begins. If the temperature cannot be promptly brought to an acceptable level, or our team determines that conditions are not suitable for safe cleaning, Clean Crusade may decline to begin or may discontinue the service. If the cleaning cannot be performed due to the temperature or another customer-controlled condition at the home, a fee equal to 50% of the scheduled service charge may apply because our team has already traveled to the property and the appointment time has been reserved. This fee is separate from the recurring customer courtesy cancellation policy.

Interactions with Pets
Our team at Clean Crusade is pet-friendly, and all our cleaners are accustomed to working in environments with pets. During the initial setup of your cleaning service, we will discuss and note the best approach for working around your pets. However, for the safety and comfort of our staff, we kindly ask that you prevent your pets, particularly dogs, from jumping on or nudging our team members. In the rare case of a dog bite, it is required to report the incident to the authorities, and the homeowner will be responsible for any necessary medical treatment. Our goal is to create an environment that is both safe and enjoyable for your pets and our employees.

Scope of Cleaning Services at Clean Crusade

Clean Crusade offers a wide array of cleaning services; however, there are specific areas and items that we do not include in our cleaning scope. It's important for our customers to be aware of these exclusions:

Non-Solicitation Agreement with Clean Crusade Employees

Agreement Terms on Hiring Clean Crusade Staff
By engaging the services of Clean Crusade, you agree to refrain from directly soliciting or hiring any of our staff members for cleaning services. The recruitment and training of our cleaners involve significant investment in terms of time, money, and resources, including comprehensive interviews, reference checks, background verifications, and specialized training.

Employee Commitment
Each member of our cleaning staff has agreed not to provide home-related services independently for any current or former Clean Crusade clients.

Procedure for Direct Employment
Should you have a specific interest in hiring one of our staff members directly, we request that this be discussed openly with the owner of Clean Crusade.

Referral and Training Fee

This fee compensates for the loss of our valuable asset and the costs associated with training and development. The payment for this fee is due within 30 days of the invoice date.

Clean Crusade regards its employees as highly valuable assets, and this policy is in place to protect the investment made in each team member.
