When are you open?

We are open every day 8am – 10pm.

What if I’m not there to let the cleaning person in?

That’s okay! Just leave us detailed entry instructions when you schedule your appointment online so we know how to gain access to your home. Your home will be locked when the cleaner leaves.

Do I have to be home while you clean?

You do not have to be home as long as your cleaner has proper directions for entering and exiting your home. Please input these instructions when booking your appointment.

How much does it cost to clean my home?

Maid Sailors pricing is based on the size of your home and the desired level of service. We operate on a flat rate basis given the number of bedrooms, and we also offer hourly services. Please see our price rates on our Pricing page.

What if I want a cleaner by the hour?

Our minimum appointment is a two (2) hour clean. If you would like to forego our standard pricing and hire an HOURLY cleaner, we can provide this at a cost of $60/hour per cleaner.

What does a Deep Clean include?

The Deep Clean service is a comprehensive top-to-bottom cleaning. We recommend a deep cleaning if you have not had your apartment professionally cleaned within the past 3 months.

It does not include cleaning baseboards, closets, interior windows, interior walls, inside the oven, inside the cabinets or inside the refrigerator, all of which are available at a reasonably priced additional cost.

What is a Move In/Move Out cleaning?

We all know moving is stressful. Combine that with all the boxes that need to be packed, furniture moved, and a long list of other preparations can be extremely time consuming. Our move in/move out cleanings are designed to prepare a home for a new tenant.

Please note that the move in/move out cleaning includes cleaning inside of the oven, insides of the cabinets, and inside of the refrigerator.

It does not include cleaning baseboards, closets, interior windows and interior walls, all of which are available at a reasonably priced additional cost.

Do Maid Sailors cleaners bring all necessary cleaning supplies to get the job done?

We bring all required products to give your home a great clean, aside from a vacuum (unless requested; see below), mop, bucket or step stool. If you’d like us to use a specific product, please let us know and leave it out for the cleaner to use.

I don’t have a vacuum. Should I still use your service?

If you do not have a vacuum, simply request for the cleaner to bring a vacuum in the special instructions area. Please note, our cleaners do not carry large capacity vacuums. Our cleaners carry mobile vacuums as they have to travel throughout the day for jobs.

What if I don’t have a mop?

Our cleaners bring a travel wet/dry mop (Swiffer) that can be used on non-carpeted floors.

Do you bring green cleaning supplies?

We have teams that do 100% green cleaning. Simply request it and we’ll assign a green-cleaning team at no additional charge. (Please note this requires time flexibility)

Do I get a discount if I’m a frequent customer?

Yes, customers who sign up for recurring service will receive discounts. For weekly service, you will receive a 15% discount. For service every 2 weeks, we have a 10% discount. If you book us every 3 weeks, you will receive a 7% discount. For service every month, you will get a 5% discount. PLEASE NOTE: The discount is not applicable until the 2nd cleaning.

How often should Maid Sailors clean my home or business?

Most of our customers differ in their individual needs, so it is difficult to provide specific guidance. Typically, our customers schedule an initial detailed cleaning of their home followed by a recurring cleaning appointment. By following this model, you can rest assured that your home is always clean and in top shape.

Tipping is not mandatory or required in any way, but you have the option of doing so if you feel that you’ve received exceptional service. Maid Sailors personnel are not permitted to solicit tips under any circumstances.

What method of payment do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards. We no longer take cash or personal checks. Our online payments are processed by Stripe and though a fully secure 256 bit SSL protocol. In addition, we have full extended validation SSL security as well. Booking through Maid Sailors is safe and secure; we guarantee this.

Why is there a pending charge on my card before the cleaning service date?

A hold will be placed on your account (for authorization) in the amount of your total balance the evening BEFORE your scheduled cleaning date. If your service is cancelled prior to 5 PM the day before your service date, the hold will drop off in 3-5 business days. THE HOLD IS NOT A CHARGE. We only charge you after the cleaning has been rendered and will receive an email invoice shortly thereafter.

How do I change my billing information?

To switch your billing information, simply log into our online portal using your username and password and edit your billing information. The online portal login is at the bottom of your initial booking confirmation email.

What is your cancellation/rescheduling policy?

You can cancel or reschedule your service without a penalty 24 HOURS before your scheduled cleaning. There will be a $90 CANCELLATION FEE if you cancel or reschedule your appointment less than 24 hours of your scheduled appointment.
