Victoria Cleaning Service FAQs

If I have budgetary constraints, can cleaners only work for a certain amount of time?

Yes, please notify our cleaner(s) upon arrival about the amount of time you would like them to spend or your budget. Alternatively, you can inform a team member during your setup call. We will prioritize cleaning the areas you request.

Is the total reflected on the online booking system what I will pay?

Our online booking system provides a rough estimate of the cost of your service. The final price may vary based on the actual time spent on-site.

How do you charge for residential services?

For residential services, invoicing is based on the total time spent on-site. If two or more cleaners are assigned, the invoice reflects the combined time worked by all cleaners. If the job exceeds the estimated booking time, you will be charged at your specific service rate (per cleaner) for each additional hour. Our rates are calculated per cleaner, meaning if two cleaners are on-site, the rate will be doubled, and it will increase proportionally for more cleaners.

How many cleaners do you send for residential services?

We typically send a team of two cleaners. For larger homes, we send three or more cleaners as needed.

Do you provide supplies?

Yes we provide all supplies. Swept Space is equipped with the latest and most effective equipment in the cleaning industry.

What is your residential cancellation policy?

Should you decide to cancel your appointment, please notify us at least 48 hours in advance via phone or email at info@sweptspace.com. Failure to provide sufficient notice may result in a cancellation fee of 2 hours service.
