Clean a cold oven: it’s simply not possible to clean the interior of a cold oven without your help. Please run the SELF CLEAN function the night before our arrival or heat and apply Oven Cleaner. Allow to rest overnight and we’ll then take take care of the rest.
Carry our cleaning equipment up any flights of stairs. It’s simply too heavy.

Move kitchen appliances: Please contact your building and or landlord for assistance here.
Pick up excessive amounts of clutter: Please ensure that items are up/off the floor to allow for thorough vacuuming and mopping. Surfaces such as countertops, coffee tables, dressers, bath vanities, etc. should also be free of clutter so that surfaces may be properly cleaned.
Hand wash dishes: We're happy to clear the sink of dirty dishes by loading them into the dishwasher but don't wish to chance breaking a favorite wine glass.
Empty the dishwasher: we assume that all items are dirty and add any items from the sink to free it up for cleaning. Kindly empty dishes from the dishwasher prior to your scheduled appointment.
Assign the exact same team for every visit. Clients will often cancel due to illness or vacation. Our employees will do the same. We guarantee each visit, regardless of which team is assigned.

Scrub or clean walls. We don't wish to damage the paint finish and recommend repainting them instead.

Change Bunk Bed Sheets: we are not permitted to climb higher than a 2 step ladder.
Bar Carts: typically contain high-end glassware and we’d be heartbroken if an item were to slipped from our wet, gloved hands. If you remove the contents of the cart, we’re happy to clean the furniture piece for you so you can carefully reload the cart.
