  • Cleaning at agreed period intervals.
  • With respect to the Suppliers Services (see Clause 3.1) the Client will be required to receive an Initial Deep Clean, prior to the regular cleaning Services being carried out which will take place at either weekly, fortnightly or monthly intervals.
  • The Supplier will provide their own products and equipment to enable them to supply the Services, unless the Client expressly requests that the Supplier uses special products of their own choosing. In such circumstances the Client is required to provide clear instructions to the Supplier and the Supplier will accept no liability for any issues, loss or damage sustained as a result of using such products. The Client will provide all bin bags in the correct sizes for all bins to be emptied by the Supplier and bins filled with rubbish without a liner present cannot be emptied.

All Clients who pay per clean will have the choice to pay as usual for the missed clean and receive a full deep clean when the next regular clean is due or skip the payment for the missed clean and pay separately for a semi deep clean on that first clean back due to missing a clean.
