Before your clean
Accessibility

Areas blocked by excessive clutter, fragile belongings, or unsafe conditions may be skipped.
Condition of the Home
Standard Cleaning is intended for homes in reasonably maintained condition.
Homes with heavy dirt, excessive grease, significant buildup, or prolonged neglect may require Deep Cleaning instead.
If the property's condition exceeds the booked scope, Turnly will contact the customer regarding available options before performing additional billable work.
Pets
For the safety and comfort of everyone involved, pets should be safely secured when necessary.
Turnly is not responsible for cleaning pet accidents or hazardous animal waste under Standard Cleaning.
Supplies and Equipment
Unless otherwise stated in the booking, Turnly's cleaning professionals will arrive with the supplies and equipment needed to perform the scheduled service.
Customers should notify Turnly in advance of delicate surfaces, special cleaning instructions, or known product restrictions.
Personal Belongings
Customers should secure valuables, important documents, fragile items, and sensitive personal belongings before the scheduled appointment.
Cleaners will not open closed cabinets, drawers, or personal storage containers unless specifically authorized as part of an approved service.
Service Limitations
Standard Cleaning focuses on routine household dirt, dust, and normal surface buildup.
Although our cleaners work carefully and thoroughly, Turnly does not guarantee the removal of permanent stains, discoloration, scratches, etching, corrosion, or damage requiring repair or restoration.
