Communicate with us!
- If you have any questions or concerns about your cleaning service, please call or text our office at 801-396-5083. We have a dedicated office staff to assist you and who will make every reasonable effort to provide you with a highly professional cleaning service.
- One way you can help us provide you with a top quality service is your ongoing feedback. Please fill out your survey after every visit to help us continually improve the quality you receive. The cleaning techs receive incentives based on their quality scores and return rate.
Getting your home ready:
- Have your home picked up and ready to be cleaned. Hourly charges may be incurred if cleaning technicians require more time if your home is not ready to be cleaned or if a job is underestimated due to the condition of the home.
- Notify all guests about our arrival and that we may need access to their space.
- Notify the office when you have guests or any unknown person in your home so that we won’t be surprised if a stranger walks out of a room.
Preparing Children and Pets:
- For safety reasons, please see that children are supervised while we are cleaning your home.
- We love our animals, however we ask that they be kenneled or out of the vicinity of the working areas or when conducting walk-throughs to avoid unexpected allergy reactions or harm. Cleaning Mama and its staff reserves the right to leave the premises if a pet exhibits aggressive behavior and you will be charged the full price of your cleaning. Cleaning Mama will not be held responsible for the behavior of any pet(s) while the cleaning service is being performed.
Accessing Your Home:
- By providing a unique door code or lockbox code. A fee will be charged if we are unable to access your home. (see lockout policy below)
- Turn off alarm systems. If you choose to leave the alarm armed, we are always diligent and careful to disarm and rearm the alarm according to your instructions. However, we will not be held responsible for false alarms or misuse of the alarm system, including charges from a local police department or security company or other charges related to an activated alarm. No exceptions.
- Additionally, you agree to hold harmless and/or release from liability Cleaning Mama from any and all liability relating to any failure of the alarm or not arming the alarm properly.
- Allow for full access to the home. Our technicians perform their work in a specific order to ensure efficiency and thoroughness. If you need to direct our technicians to clean certain areas first or to clean in a different order, this adds additional time to your cleaning. We are happy to offer this service if needed, but you must call ahead of your cleaning so we can schedule the additional time. Any additional time accrued by our team will be charged at our current hourly rate in fifteen minute increments.
Lock Out Policy
- Our cleaning hours are from 8:00am to 5:30pm. If for any circumstance our staff is SENT AWAY or LOCKED OUT from your home between these hours, there will be a cancellation fee of 100% of your typical cleaning rate. We will make every effort to work within the time frame you requested, but ask not to be sent away during our working hours.
- We can not guarantee an exact arrival time for your visit. If you need an estimated window of arrival, please contact our office the day before your scheduled visit. No arrival time is implied or guaranteed. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but they are treated as requests.

Estimates/Quotes:
- Estimates are given based on the information given by the client. Should the conditions be dirtier or more cluttered than indicated we will not guarantee we can complete the job in the time quoted. You will be given a choice to increase your budget, or have us leave the job.

Don’t Skip…Modify your work order:
Our staff is very important to us and depends on you to be able to pay their bills. When you skip your cleaning, they get paid less.
- Going On Vacation?: Instead of skipping consider having us do some deep clean work (hand wiping baseboards, doors/frames, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, or cleaning the inside of your fridge/oven, cleaning under all the sinks)
- A Little Sick?: It’s more important now than ever that we come in and clean your home. Just hang out in your room (or any room) and we will swap out that time with our Disinfecting Service.
- If you do need to skip, we require at least 48 hour notice for recurring cleanings.
- If you skip a cleaning with less than 48 hours notice, you will be charged the full anticipated cost of your scheduled cleaning, without exceptions.
