How we work
What to expect when you book a clean with us
Everything a customer usually wants to know before letting a cleaner into their home: how the visit is arranged, what we bring, how we handle pets and keys, and how payment and cancellations work.
Who we are
The Clean Freak Cleaning Services is a residential cleaning company working across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, from Vancouver to Langley, Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. Most weeks are a mix of regular upkeep for busy households, deep cleans, tenancy and moving cleans, short-term rental turnovers.
We travel to you, so there is no storefront to visit. Every clean is $45 per hour, and we confirm the estimated hours and total in writing before anything is booked.
How a booking works, step by step
- 01
You get in touch
Send the quote form, or call or text. We ask about the size and condition of the space, the type of clean and how often you would like us.
- 02
We confirm the scope and quote
We confirm the expected hours, expected total and cleaning scope before booking, including any add-ons. If something needs a closer look, we ask for photos rather than guessing.
- 03
We agree on the date and access
We confirm the date and time window and how we will get in: you let us in, a lockbox or code, a building concierge, or a key you leave with us.
- 04
We clean to the checklist
The team follows the agreed cleaning scope. With a time cap, we work through priorities from highest to lowest and complete as much as reasonably possible within the booked labour time, rather than guaranteeing the entire list. We discuss any extra work before continuing.

We follow up
If something was missed or you have a concern, contact us promptly by phone, text or email. We will review what happened and work with you toward a reasonable resolution.
Our practices and policies
We publish only what we can stand behind. If a detail is not covered here, you can always ask us directly.
Insurance and coverage
We are insured. Proof of coverage is available on request.
If something is not right
If something was missed or you have a concern, contact us promptly by phone, text or email. We will review what happened and work with you toward a reasonable resolution.
Products and equipment
We provide standard cleaning products, cloths, a mop and the normal supplies and equipment needed for your booked clean. Supplies are included; you do not need to provide standard cleaning products.
Cleaners bring a vacuum unless otherwise arranged. If you prefer your own vacuum or equipment, request this when booking.
You may request specific products or provide your own preferred product. Tell us when booking so we can discuss suitable arrangements for your surfaces and cleaning list.
Tell us about sensitivities, allergies, pets, children and any surface-specific requirements when booking so we can discuss appropriate arrangements.
Pets
Tell us about your pets and any instructions before the visit. Secure pets if they may interfere with cleaning or access, including at entrances.
If a pet is anxious around strangers or vacuums, it usually helps to keep them in one closed room; tell us which room to leave alone.
We clean pet hair within the booked scope. Biohazard cleaning is excluded.
Getting into your home
You do not need to be home if secure access is arranged in advance, such as a key, code, lockbox or concierge. Access information is used only to provide your booked service. Tell us if instructions change.
For apartments, let us know about visitor parking, loading bays and elevator bookings so the visit is not held up.
Payment
We accept cash or e-transfer, due when the clean is finished. We confirm the expected hours and total before booking and discuss any change in scope or expected time with you before continuing.
Booking and cleaning time
Book as early as possible, especially for move-out cleaning or a date-sensitive visit. Availability varies; we confirm your date before booking and cannot promise a fixed lead time or same-day availability.
With a time limit, we work through your priorities from highest to lowest and complete as much as reasonably possible within the booked labour time. Completion of your entire list or home is not guaranteed within a time cap.
Share your desired cleaning scope. We estimate the labour and time, then confirm the expected hours and expected price before booking. Actual time may differ if the home's condition or scope differs from what was described; we discuss changes with you before continuing.
Preparation and special-care items
You do not need to clean first. Clearing personal clutter from surfaces and floors helps your cleaning time go further. Secure valuables, fragile items and pets as appropriate, and tell us about anything off-limits.
Identify fragile, sentimental or special-care items before the visit. Please secure valuables and anything you would prefer us not to touch. We do not handle items that appear unsafe or unusually fragile without your direction.
We may move light, easily movable items when it is safe. We do not move heavy furniture, appliances or anything that could risk injury or damage to your property.
Changes and cancellations
Please call, text or email as early as possible to cancel or reschedule. With at least 24 hours' notice, you can change or cancel at no charge. With less notice, or if we cannot access your home, we may charge for the first two hours of the booked time. We confirm any applicable charge with you before it applies. A new date depends on availability.
If illness, weather or an emergency affects your visit, we contact you as early as possible to discuss rescheduling, subject to availability.
The people who come to your home
We confirm the expected hours and total before booking. Cleaners bring the standard supplies and equipment for your booked clean and work within the agreed scope.
