Terms of Service
By hiring Master Clean Bay Area, you are agreeing to our terms of service.
By using the Master Clean Service Bay Area LLC website to book service, you agree to comply with these terms & conditions. If you do not agree, do not book service with us.
Booking Confirmation
Booking service online does not guarantee a spot for your preferred date/time. You will receive a confirmation via email or phone.
To reserve your cleaning date and time, full payment must be paid.
Cleaning Crew
We work with teams of two or more cleaners, depending on the complexity of work or busy schedule. We strive to limit the rotation of cleaners in your home while still providing sufficient cross-training to our cleaning technicians.
All our employees have been rigorously background screened before working with us. You can rest assured that our staff has integrity and is held accountable.
Right to Refuse Service
We reserve the right to deny and/or terminate service due to safety concerns, inappropriate or uncomfortable situations, weapons on-premises, severe clutter, and disconnected utilities.
Our employees have the right to leave if the home is in an extremely unsanitary condition or if they feel unsafe/threatened. If you book an unreasonable cleaning, the cleaners may refuse service on the spot, and you will be charged the cancellation fee.
Cleaning Day Preparation
Your cleaning price is based on the cleaners focusing all their time on cleaning. We ask that you take a few minutes to tidy up to allow the cleaners easy access to the areas/surfaces to be cleaned, such as floors, counter-tops, tabletops, etc. If you want our cleaners to do these tasks for you, call the office in advance, and your cleaning fee can be adjusted for the additional time.

These services are available for an extra charge:
- Clean Interior Windows & Sills
- Detail Blinds
- Detail Baseboards
- Dishes
- Clean Inside Kitchen Cabinets

Pets
We will gladly work around pets, but we ask that indoor activity is limited for cleaning efficiency and safety reasons. If your pet becomes anxious or presents a safety concern, Master Clean Service Bay Area reserves the right to remove its employees from your home.
Our employees are instructed not to enter a house if they believe an animal is a threat. Pets may behave differently if a family member is not present. If the removal of our cleaning technician is due to aggressive pets, our cancellation policy will apply.
Service Fees (Master Clean Service Bay Area, LLC California)
Please note that our instant prices are based on years of experience, but we may adjust the fee depending on the actual condition of the house. To prevent any surprises when we arrive and find that the job will require extra time, we will call you. If we are unable to reach you, the crew will have to leave, and you will be charged a cancellation fee.
We reserve the right to reevaluate rates at any time based on the time it takes to perform our service to meet the client’s standards. If the cleaning time differs significantly from the original bid, we will contact you to discuss price or service revisions.
Payments
To reserve your cleaning date and time, a full payment will be due. Payments must be made before the day of cleaning credit card or checking account online.
Refund Policy
We do not offer refunds. However, if we miss anything during the cleaning, please email or call us within 24 hours, and we will rectify the error at no charge. We strive to provide our clients with the best possible service available.
Recurring Service Discount
Recurring discounts start AFTER the first cleaning service. If you skip cleanings, and your cleaning frequency is lower than what you were set up for, your price will be increased to the pricing level for the lower frequency.
Rate Increases
Client’s cleaning rate adjustments may be made at any time during the year if there are changes to the frequency of the client’s established service schedule or home or living situation, such as remodeling, change of address, number of people living in the home, significant addition of furniture, etc. The customer rate shall be increased annually, by an amount not-to-exceed 8% of the client’s current rate.
Lockouts
The client shall make the service location accessible to Master Clean Service Bay Area LLC personnel on the scheduled service day. If the team is locked out of the client’s home, every effort will be made to establish contact with the client to arrange for entry into the home. If contact is not made within 10 minutes of the arrival of the cleaning team, the scheduled cleaning will be skipped, and you will be charged a $150 late cancellation fee. This fee is necessary to compensate the employees for unexpected lost revenue and time travel. To avoid the fee, provide us with a key or code to gain entry to your home.
Rescheduling & Cancellations
Service reliability is essential because we reserve a time, especially for you. We request that you give us a minimum of 48 hours advance notice if you need to cancel or reschedule for any reason to avoid incurring a $150 cancellation fee.
Alarm
If your home is equipped with a security system, please ensure that it is in the off position or call Master Clean Bay Area’s LLC number with the code and proper directions for use. If the code changes, please inform us to avoid any lockout charges.
Use of Homeowner’s Vacuum
If you request to use your vacuum, Master Clean Bay Area Service LLC will not assume or accept any liability for damage to the unit. As we are not responsible for the maintenance of the vacuum, we will not be responsible for any repairs to it. It is important to note that if the vacuum is not in working order when we arrive to clean your home, we will not be able to perform any vacuuming of carpet and hard floor surfaces.
