Frequently Asked Cleaning Questions
People are often busy and do not have the time or energy to clean their own homes. Cleaning can be overwhelming, especially when you’re literally facing a mountain of a job – things literred on the floor, desks and counters, cobwebs on the ceiling and fans, filmy windows, old newspapers and magazines piled up high everywhere, a sink full of dirty dishes, grimy stove tops, oven and microwave, stained carpet…the list goes on.

Not at all. You can combine both a house cleaning and carpet cleaning on the same visit saving you time and money.
We offer one-time, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly cleaning service. Just let us know what your needs are, and we can customize and prioritize your cleanings.
Not at all. All Yolanda’s Maid & Carpet Cleaning housekeepers carry their own environmentally friendly cleaning supplies and their own equipment.
For security all our house cleaners are REQUIRED to pass a background check prior to being hired. They are fully trained and experienced through video and hands on training, only the professionals who clean your home have access to the keys, and the keys are stored in a doubly-locked box at our offices.
Most people work full-time so you can make arrangements for your cleaning crew to enter your home if you will not be there. However, we recommend you meet your cleaners the first time and after you have established a regular cleaning team, you decide the best arrangements for your personal cleaning needs.
Every client’s needs are different, so your teamm will work form the list you create for them.
If you need to change or cancel a scheduled service, we require one business day’s notice / 24hr notice.
The most experienced housekeepers are quickly booked by regular clients. We suggest that you schedule your regular service based on your housekeeper team’s availability.
If you are satisfied with the first housekeeper team that we refer and use the service on a regular basis, then he/she becomes your regular housekeeper / team. If, for any reason, you are not satisfied, we will refer a housekeeper/team who better suits your needs for the next service. If you are not happy we want to know so we can make things right.
We leave that up to you. Tips are always appreciated!
We accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express for your convenience. Or, if you prefer you can pay your housekeeper with cash or check (some exceptions with paying in check) at the time of your service.
In order to give you the greatest value, we ask you to take a few minutes the night before to pick up extraneous clothing, toys and other household items.
In the unlikely event that something should become damaged or broken while we are cleaning, we will make every effort to have the item repaired, or replaced if it cannot be repaired. Insurance claims will be filed when appropriate. We treat your home with considerable care to ensure that accidents do not occur.
Rates are quoted per person per hour. Typically teams size are 2 or 3 people. We reserve the exclusive right to select the team size based on the cleaning job, schedule and staffing requirements for that day. The team size DOES NOT affect the overall cost as we prorate the billing time and obviously a larger team works faster.
