Frequently asked questions

Everything people ask us before their first cleaning

At Trustworthy Cleaning Services, we believe in clear communication, dependable service, and a great customer experience. Here are answers to our most frequently asked questions.

Booking & Scheduling

How do I schedule a cleaning service?

Booking is easy! Call us at 512-350-9727 or visit trustworthycleaningserv.com to request an estimate. Our team will help you choose the right cleaning service and schedule.

Do I need to be home during my cleaning?

No! Many of our customers enjoy coming home to a freshly cleaned space. Simply provide secure access instructions, including door codes, keys, or lockbox information before your appointment.

Can I request a specific cleaning time?

We do our best to accommodate your preferred arrival time. However, arrival times are scheduled within estimated windows based on traffic, technician availability, and route efficiency. Exact arrival times are not guaranteed unless confirmed in writing.

Will I always have the same cleaning technician?

We strive for consistency whenever possible. However, technician assignments may change due to scheduling, availability, or operational needs. Rescheduling may also result in a different technician or arrival window.

What happens if I need to reschedule or cancel?

We require at least 48 hours' advance notice for cancellations or rescheduling. Changes made with less than 48 hours' notice may result in additional fees or forfeiture of an applicable deposit.

What happens if the cleaning team cannot access my property?

Please make sure all access instructions are accurate and updated. If our technicians cannot enter your property due to missing codes, locked doors, or other customer-related access issues, lockout or late cancellation charges may apply.

Pricing & Payments

When will my credit card be charged?

Your authorized payment method will be charged when our cleaning technician arrives and begins your scheduled service. A valid credit or debit card may be required to book and maintain service.

Is a deposit required?

Deposits may be required for deep cleaning, move-in/move-out cleaning, specialty services, or one-time appointments. Deposits are non-refundable when a customer cancels or reschedules with less than 48 hours' notice.

Why is recurring cleaning less expensive than one-time cleaning?

Recurring cleaning helps maintain your home consistently, reducing buildup and the amount of labor required. Our recurring rates are based on your selected frequency: weekly, every two weeks, or every four weeks.

Will my price change if I skip a cleaning?

It may. Recurring pricing is based on maintaining your agreed cleaning frequency. If you skip or postpone an appointment, your next cleaning may be charged according to the actual time between visits. For example, a biweekly cleaning postponed to approximately four weeks may be charged at the applicable four-week rate.

Can my cleaning price increase?

Pricing may be adjusted if the property's condition, cleaning frequency, requested services, or actual cleaning requirements differ significantly from the original estimate. We make reasonable efforts to communicate material changes before significant additional work begins.

Cleaning Services & Preparation

Do you bring your own cleaning supplies and equipment?

Yes! We provide standard professional cleaning products, supplies, vacuums, mops, and equipment necessary for your scheduled service.

Do I need to clean or organize before your team arrives?

You don't need to clean before we arrive! However, we recommend picking up excessive toys, clothing, dishes, paperwork, and personal belongings so our technicians can focus on cleaning your home. Areas blocked by excessive clutter may not be cleaned.

Can I request additional cleaning services during my appointment?

Absolutely! Please contact our office to request additional rooms, cleaning time, or specialty services. All additional work must be approved by Trustworthy Cleaning Services before it begins. Our technicians cannot independently authorize pricing or service changes.

Do you clean homes with pets?

Yes! We welcome homes with pets. Please inform us about your pets before service and securely contain any animals that may become aggressive, frightened, or interfere with the cleaning. Excessive pet hair or other unusual conditions may require additional cleaning time or charges.

Are there cleaning tasks your technicians cannot perform?

For everyone's safety, our technicians do not perform hazardous cleaning involving blood, bodily fluids, needles, excessive mold, active pest infestations, or other dangerous conditions. They are also not required to move heavy furniture or appliances or work at unsafe heights.

Can you guarantee the removal of all stains and buildup?

While we work hard to deliver excellent results, some permanent stains, rust, mineral buildup, hard-water damage, discoloration, or surface deterioration may not be fully removable. Results depend on the age, material, condition, and maintenance history of each surface.

Satisfaction & Quality Guarantee

What if I'm not satisfied with my cleaning?

Your satisfaction matters to us! If something was missed within the scope of your purchased service, please contact us within 24 hours after your cleaning. Include a description and photos whenever possible. We will review your concern and, when appropriate, arrange a complimentary re-clean of the affected areas, generally within 24–72 hours, subject to availability.

Do you offer refunds?

Our first priority is to make things right through inspection and re-cleaning. Trustworthy Cleaning Services must be given a reasonable opportunity to correct eligible service concerns before refunds, credits, or other adjustments are considered. Refunds are not guaranteed and are subject to our service agreement and applicable law.

What if something is accidentally damaged?

Please notify our office within 24 hours of discovering potential service-related damage and provide photos or supporting documentation. We must have an opportunity to inspect the item before it is repaired, replaced, or discarded, except when immediate action is necessary to prevent additional damage.

Do your technicians take before-and-after photos?

Yes. Our team may take reasonable before-and-after photos for quality control, service verification, training, and documentation. Personally identifying photos will not be used publicly for marketing without appropriate authorization.

Recurring Service Agreements

Is there a minimum commitment for recurring cleaning?

Yes. Our recurring cleaning agreements include an initial six-month commitment, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Can I cancel my recurring cleaning agreement?

Yes. We require 30 days' written notice to discontinue recurring cleaning services. Services scheduled during the notice period remain scheduled and payable unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Is there an early termination fee?

A $250 early termination fee may apply if you terminate your recurring cleaning agreement before completing the initial six-month commitment, subject to your signed agreement and applicable law.

Does my recurring cleaning agreement automatically renew?

Yes. After the initial six-month term, your recurring service continues automatically at your selected cleaning frequency until canceled in accordance with the agreement's 30-day written notice requirement.

Trust, Safety & Company Policies

Is Trustworthy Cleaning Services bonded and insured?

Yes! Trustworthy Cleaning Services is bonded and insured. We have proudly served our community since 2004.

Can I hire my Trustworthy cleaning technician privately?

No. Our service agreement includes an employee non-solicitation policy. Customers may not directly or indirectly hire, contract with, pay, or arrange unauthorized private cleaning services with Trustworthy Cleaning Services personnel outside the company. This restriction applies during the customer relationship and for the period specified in the agreement, to the extent permitted by law. Violations may result in a $3,000 employee placement/referral fee, subject to the agreement and applicable law.

What happens during severe weather or emergencies?

The safety of our customers and technicians comes first. Severe weather, flooding, road closures, utility outages, or other emergencies may require us to delay or reschedule your appointment. We will make reasonable efforts to communicate any necessary changes.

How do I submit a complaint, billing question, or cancellation request?

Please contact our office directly through our approved communication channels. Instructions provided only to a cleaning technician are not considered official notice.
