All of our services are guaranteed to be carried out with the maximum amount of professionalism and quality. This online bid is designed to make your life easier, but is unfortunately unable to take every factor into consideration. The proposal this system has given you is based on the information provided by you on the previous screen, or over the phone (which we will hold on record) and that if there is a deviation from those numbers, we must adjust our estimate accordingly.
Our online bidding system uses the Square Footage of living space that you provide, or what is recorded at: https://sdat.dat.maryland.gov/RealProperty/. If the information you provide is incorrect your pricing will change to the square footage that is recorded at: https://sdat.dat.maryland.gov/RealProperty/.
Our Online system is incapable of bidding anything that is above and beyond regular cleaning services. All bids produced by this system are subject to change, although we try not to whenever possible. Factors such as extra ladder work, heavy soiling, mineral deposits, weak or fragile landscaping, interior access, previously damaged or worn out screens or gutters, or anything else that we are unable to factor into this sight-unseen bid which might affect the price will have to be taken into account, if need be, at the time of service– but before the service commences. You saved yourself time. You saved us gas & time. And this whole process has helped the environment. We consider that when we are making these adjustments and only do so when it is absolutely necessary and with great consideration. Our mission is NOT to bait and switch. We just thought it is only fair that we let you know that!
So that your cleaning stays within the scheduled time frame, is completed in full and to keep your property and our team safe, please review the following:
1) If you’re having your windows cleaned, please make sure all windows are closed, locked and any screens have been removed.
2) If you are having your roof or house washed please make sure all doors and windows are closed, all potted plants have been brought in or moved into the yard and vehicles are at least 20 feet from the home.
3) If you are having your driveway or patio cleaned, please make sure the surface is clear of any vehicles, plants and/or patio furniture.
4) Has your property been painted with Sherwin Williams Exterior Paints? Some of their exterior paints include organic pigments that have been known to react with cleaning solutions designed to eliminate organic matter such as algae, mildew, mold and bacteria. Please take a paper towel with a small amount of bleach and test the painted surfaces on your property to observe whether there is any color change. It would be a reaction that happens within a couple minutes and is significant, not slight. If you’re unable to do this test, please let us know so we can test prior to our service.
5) Windows may already be spotted due to heavy concentrations of minerals in your tap water. Some of our service options include the use of water softners that will reduce water spotting but even using pure water systems can not remove spotting that already exists on the glass from rain, metal window screens and other causes.
If these preparations aren’t completed, our team may not be able to complete your service even though the agreed to charges will still apply.
