Our Service Policies

We are honored that you have chosen Lemon Blossom Cleaning Services as your house cleaning provider. Our service policies are as follows. Should you have any questions or concerns, please call our office at (469) 617-7676. We look forward to a long and happy business relationship with you!

Please Note: The following policies are not a contract for services. We prefer to generate customer loyalty by relying on the quality and value of our services to you as opposed to a signed “contract”. You are under no obligation for a specified number of visits or to continue future services and may cancel at any time.

Payment: Payment is due at time of service. We accept cash, check, credit card or money order for recurring visits. A credit card must be placed on file and used to secure your first cleaning appointment. We charge a $35.00 service fee for any check returned NSF or Account Closed.

Pets: If your pets are sociable, we do not mind them roaming the house-we love pets! However, for the protection of your pets and our staff, we request that any pet which may become nervous or aggressive during our visits be either kenneled, restrained to a room in which we will not be cleaning, or kept outside in a fenced area that our staff will not have to cross.

Special Service Requests: Services such as vacuuming window treatments, cleaning a guest bedroom, etc. can usually be performed along with your regular cleaning. There may or may not be a small fee depending on the task involved, so please leave a note regarding the request on the kitchen counter. If there is an additional fee, we will simply add it to the amount of your next cleaning and communicate it to you prior to that visit. Tasks requiring more than 15 additional minutes need to be scheduled through the office by calling (469) 617-7676.

Equipment / cleaning products: Lemon Blossom will provide all necessary equipment and cleaning supplies. If you prefer a product that we do not stock, you are welcome to leave it on the kitchen counter and we will be happy to use that product. A waiver of responsibility on the part of Lemon Blossom Cleaning Services must accompany these products.

Schedule Changes: We understand there may be times when you have a change of plans. We request a forty-eight (48) hour notice* to reschedule or cancel so that another customer may fill your appointment time. If 48 hours notice is not given, we reserve the right to charge an $80.00 cancellation fee so that we may compensate for the loss of the appointment. If we send a cleaning team to your home and no notice was given, we charge a $80 lock out fee to compensate the cleaning team for their travel time and their loss of work hours in your home.
*In the event a forty-eight hour (48) notice cannot be given due to emergency situations, please call as soon as possible – we generally allow 2 gratis reschedules per year for emergency situations!

Breakage Policy: Our staff members take the utmost care in cleaning and have been specially trained to treat the surfaces in your home. However, accidents do occasionally occur. If an item is damaged, a note will be left to inform you of the occurrence and our office manager will call you to make arrangements for repair, replacement or compensation for the article.

Keys: Lemon Blossom maintains a key safe in our office. Keys filed with Lemon Blossom are coded via computer system. Names and addresses are never attached to the key. In the event our staff arrives for a regularly scheduled appointment and there is no means of entry to your home, a lock out fee of $80.00 will be charged to your account. Please communicate with our office regarding your preferred entry method.

Issues/concerns about the service provided: Lemon Blossom is committed to providing you the highest quality of service achievable at the most reasonable price. Our Field Supervisors inspect homes on a routine basis to ensure that the quality of your initial cleaning is being maintained. If you have any concerns or questions, please phone our office immediately. If necessary, we will return the following business day to correct any oversight.
Preparing for your cleaning visit: We provide professional “cleaning” services as opposed to “housekeeping” services. Taking a few minutes to accomplish these simple steps will help ensure that your home receives the most thorough cleaning possible!
