If you require a full cleaning service nothing is required, although hazardous waste should be dealt with appropriately, so please notify us of any. If you pick any of our lower option plans, many  of them require that toys and other objects be removed from flooring to insure the job is completed in a timely manner. Other issues may also arise where an area may be hard to reach for cleaning tools.

All clients are scheduled accordingly and will be notified a day in advance of our arrival. Stuff happens right? If you just cant work cleaning services into the schedule for the week, please let us know! We are more than happy to accommodate, after all you are our client! Don’t let those dust bunnies build up for too long , skipping too many cleanings makes it tougher on everyone, and it’s more cost effective to have a routine clean.

Pam And A Bucket has a strict policy that will ensure the replacement of items if they are damaged. Some items in the home or office we may be weary of cleaning such as flat screen TV’s that hang on a wall or expensive artwork. Please let us know about other items that would need special attention, such as putting new bamboo flooring in throughout the home. Although we know how to clean many surfaces, it is in your best interests to let us know before we arrive so that we bring the right tools to do the best job safely.

Most cleaning services charge for appointments missed that are not canceled in advance. We do charge a $50 fee if you do not cancel prior to our arrival, however if you let us know before the team arrives there’s no charge. We do urge our clients to provide us a key or key code so that if you are not home we can still gain access, perform our duties, lock up and just invoice you later.

 You are under no liability for our employees or any tax expenses. If you have any questions we are more than happy to help, just give us a call or send a message.

We provide all cleaning supplies and equipment. If a special product is requested that we do not use, just let us know and we will be more than happy to discuss it with you. Some products contain noxious chemicals and are only to be used outside the home or office. We would be pleased to inform you on the product that you require. Upon request we can show you our library of MSDS sheets (Material Safety Data Sheet)  for cleaning products that we use.

If your home cleaning falls on a holiday (depending on which holiday it is) we will make sure to schedule your cleaning on a different date close to the date of the holiday, so you don’t miss a clean – especially during those important times to have your home cleaned.
