At You’ve Got MAIDS we are very careful to inform our Clients that their actual cost could be less or more than the estimate depending on the Clients accurate description of conditions. For initial cleans, the price is tied into the number of maid hours required to finish the job. Click here for the definition of “maid hours.”
We use computer software to objectively evaluate your home. At the end of this process we give an estimate of how long your Spring Clean, Move In Clean, or Move Out Clean should take in “maid hours.” We multiply the estimated time by an hourly rate for initial cleans. We provide the prospective Client with a projected price range for the initial clean. The prospective Client either accepts or rejects our offer to provide service. This is pretty simple stuff.
Accurate description of conditions if vital. The estimating computer software is only as accurate as the information provided by the Customer. In computer lingo it has always been garbage in, garbage out. Somehow that seems appropriate for a maid service as well.
We don’t’ charge extra for drive time, and we don’t round up to the nearest half hour like some places. Charging to the minute seems fair to both the Client and the maids. Our time starts when we arrive at the house.
Estimates are just that. Webster defines es·ti·mate: 1. To calculate approximately (the amount, extent, magnitude, position, or value of something).
Clients may email us a limit or a cap on the number of hours they wish to purchase. In such a case we will work up to that ceiling. In the absence of any such emailed instructions our maids are instructed to finish the job. To quote Larry the Cable Guy, we get ‘er done.
After the initial house cleaning our Clients enjoy a set price for weekly recurring service. Weekly recurring service fee’s rarely change.
