IMPORTANT INFORMATION !
New clients & initial visits are charged at the applicable hourly rate. Once a regular cleaning routine has been established, Totally Klean will offer a fixed price per property based on the agreed level of work.
This allows us to become familiar with your property, your requirements and the time needed to maintain our agreed standard. A fixed price is not based on the time it requires to complete a clean in your property, but on the service and level of care provided. As we become more efficient and familiar with your space, this ensures you continue to receive the same Totally Klean standard of service while allowing our pricing to remain fair and sustainable.
Any change in pricing will always be communicated and agreed with you before the new fixed price takes place, we believe in honest, transparent pricing with no unexpected charges.
