Terms and Conditions for Deep Cleaning Battersea
These Terms and Conditions set out the basis on which Deep Cleaning Battersea provides professional cleaning services to domestic and commercial clients in the UK. By making a booking, confirming an appointment, or allowing our team to commence work, you agree to be bound by these terms. Please read them carefully before placing a request for a deep clean, end-of-tenancy clean, one-off sanitation service, or any similar specialist cleaning service.
For the purposes of these terms, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the service provider operating under the deep cleaning Battersea service name, and “you” refers to the customer or person authorising the work. These terms apply to all quotations, scheduled visits, add-on tasks, materials used, and any subsequent amendments agreed in writing or by recorded communication. If any part of these terms is inconsistent with a separate written agreement, the written agreement will take priority to the extent of the inconsistency.
We reserve the right to update or amend these terms from time to time. The version in force at the time of booking will apply to your service unless a later written variation is expressly agreed. Continued use of our deep cleaning service after any amendment has been notified will be treated as acceptance of the updated terms.
Booking Process
Bookings may be made through a direct booking request, email confirmation, or any other accepted ordering method offered at the time. A booking is only considered provisional until we have confirmed availability, the scope of work, the date, and any estimated duration or price. We may request further information about the property, such as the number of rooms, access conditions, special surfaces, or the presence of hazards, so that we can assess whether the service is suitable and assign the appropriate team and equipment.
When you book a deep cleaning Battersea appointment, you must ensure that all details provided are accurate and complete. This includes the service address, access arrangements, parking restrictions, security instructions, and any specific cleaning priorities. If your circumstances change before the appointment, you must notify us as soon as reasonably possible. Any failure to give accurate information may affect the price, duration, or completion of the service and may result in a revised quotation or cancellation fee.
Our acceptance of a booking does not guarantee that every requested task will be feasible on the day. If, upon arrival, we determine that the property conditions differ materially from those described at the time of booking, we may revise the quotation, limit the scope, or decline unsafe work. We will act reasonably and will always try to explain the reasons for any change before proceeding.
Payments, Charges and Invoices
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all prices are stated in pounds sterling and may be subject to VAT where applicable. The final fee may depend on the size of the property, the level of soiling, the number of items or areas requested, specialist equipment requirements, and the time needed to complete the work. Estimates are based on the information supplied by you and may be adjusted if the actual conditions differ significantly from those described during the booking process.
Payment terms will be confirmed at the time of booking or in the invoice. In many cases, payment may be required on completion of the job, though we may request a deposit, advance payment, or part payment for larger or repeat projects. If you fail to make payment when due, we reserve the right to suspend further services, charge reasonable administrative costs, and recover any lawful expenses incurred in collecting outstanding sums.
We accept that the deep cleaning service should be transparent and fair, and we will make reasonable efforts to itemise the main elements of any invoice where appropriate. If you dispute an invoice, you must raise the issue promptly and in good faith. Undisputed portions of the invoice remain payable by the due date. Any agreed refund or credit will be made using the original payment method where practicable, unless otherwise agreed.
Cancellations, Rescheduling and Access
You may cancel or reschedule a booking by giving reasonable notice. Where a cancellation is made at short notice, we may charge a fee to cover reserved time, staff allocation, and preparation costs. The amount of any cancellation charge will depend on how close to the appointment time the cancellation is made and whether work has already begun to prepare for the service. If our team has already arrived at the property or has been unable to start due to lack of access, the full or partial service fee may still be payable.
If we need to cancel or reschedule, we will do our best to inform you as early as possible and offer an alternative appointment. However, we shall not be liable for any indirect loss caused by changes made for reasons outside our control, including staff illness, transport disruption, severe weather, equipment failure, or events that make it unsafe or impractical to proceed. Any deposit paid for a cancelled appointment will be handled in accordance with the circumstances of the cancellation and any statutory rights that apply.
It is your responsibility to ensure that we can gain safe and timely access to the property at the scheduled time. This includes providing keys, codes, concierge instructions, or on-site attendance by an authorised person where required. If access is delayed or denied, we may reduce the time available for cleaning or treat the booking as cancelled by you. In either case, a charge may still apply for the reserved appointment slot and any staff waiting time.
Service Standards and Customer Responsibilities
We will provide the service with reasonable care and skill, using appropriate methods and products suitable for the agreed task. However, specialist cleaning services often involve limitations due to age, condition, material sensitivity, prior damage, staining, or embedded contamination. Some marks, odours, or residues may not be fully removable without risk to the underlying surface. We do not guarantee that every stain will be eliminated or that every item will be restored to a like-new condition.
You must tell us about any delicate surfaces, hidden damage, fragile items, electrical faults, leaks, pest infestations, or other conditions that may affect the work. You should also remove or secure valuables, cash, documents, jewellery, and irreplaceable items before the appointment. Unless we have expressly agreed otherwise, we are not responsible for packing, moving, or storing personal property beyond what is reasonably necessary to complete the cleaning.
If you ask us to use a product, method, or instruction against our recommendation, we may refuse to do so if we believe it could damage the property or create an unsafe condition. Where we proceed at your request after warning you of the risks, you accept responsibility for the consequences to the extent permitted by law. Our team may also refuse tasks that would require unsafe lifting, entry into confined spaces, or contact with hazardous substances without suitable equipment or training.
Liability and Limitations
We accept liability for direct loss or damage caused by our proven negligence, breach of contract, or failure to exercise reasonable care and skill, subject to the limitations set out in these terms and any rights you have under UK law. If damage occurs, you must notify us as soon as reasonably practicable and provide details and evidence of the issue so that we can investigate fairly. We may, at our option, inspect the property or affected item before arranging repair, replacement, or compensation.
We are not liable for pre-existing damage, wear and tear, manufacturing defects, hidden faults, or damage caused by the normal limitations of the cleaning process. We are also not liable for loss of profit, loss of opportunity, business interruption, or any indirect or consequential loss arising from the service, except where such limitation is not permitted by law. Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Where our liability is established, our total aggregate liability for any claim relating to a single booking will be limited to the amount paid or payable for that booking, except where a different limit is required by applicable law. This limitation is intended to be fair and proportionate and does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer where those rights apply.
Waste Regulations, Disposal and Environmental Compliance
We operate in line with applicable UK waste handling rules and expect customers to co-operate with lawful disposal practices. Routine waste generated by a cleaning service, such as disposable wipes, packaging, or collected debris agreed in advance, will be handled responsibly. However, we do not remove, transport, or dispose of controlled, hazardous, clinical, or specialist waste unless this has been expressly agreed and we are lawfully able to do so.
You must disclose any materials that may require special handling, including sharps, biohazards, chemical residues, asbestos-containing materials, mould contamination beyond ordinary domestic cleaning, or items contaminated with bodily fluids. If such waste is discovered during the service and was not declared beforehand, we may suspend the work, isolate the area if safe to do so, and request further instructions. Additional charges may apply where lawful specialist handling, extra protective equipment, or third-party disposal arrangements are needed.
Deep cleaning Battersea services are provided with consideration for environmental responsibility, and we may use efficient methods intended to minimise unnecessary waste. Nonetheless, our obligation is limited to lawful and reasonable disposal of materials that arise directly from the agreed cleaning activity. Any refuse remaining at the property after the service remains your responsibility unless we have specifically agreed to remove it as part of the booking.
Insurance, Complaints and Remedies
We maintain insurance appropriate to the nature of our services, subject to the terms and exclusions of the relevant policy. Insurance does not create rights beyond those provided in these terms or by law, and any claim must be supported by reasonable evidence. If you believe something has gone wrong, you should notify us promptly, ideally within a short period after the service, so that we can investigate while the facts are fresh and any relevant materials remain available for review.
Any complaint should be made in a clear and factual manner, identifying the date of the service, the issue concerned, and the outcome you are seeking. We will review the matter in good faith and may offer a re-clean, partial refund, or other suitable remedy where appropriate and lawful. A re-clean, if offered, will be limited to the original areas of concern and must be arranged within a reasonable timeframe.
If an issue has arisen because you withheld information, changed the property conditions, refused access, or requested a lower-cost or accelerated service against our recommendation, any remedy may be reduced or refused to the extent the problem was caused or contributed to by those factors. Nothing in this section prevents either party from exercising any rights that cannot be excluded under UK consumer law.
General Terms, Force Majeure and Governing Law
We may assign or subcontract part of the service where reasonably necessary, provided that the standard of work is not materially reduced. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these terms without our written consent. If any clause is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining clauses will continue in full force, and the invalid part will be interpreted as narrowly as necessary to make it lawful where possible.
Neither party will be liable for failure or delay in performance caused by events outside reasonable control, including fire, flood, epidemic restrictions, power failure, strikes, transport disruption, or government action. If such an event occurs, we will seek to minimise disruption and resume the service when reasonably practicable. Where performance becomes impossible or unsafe, either party may cancel the affected booking without further liability except for sums already due for work completed or costs lawfully incurred.
These Terms and Conditions, and any dispute or claim arising from or connected with them, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction, except that if you are a consumer, you may also benefit from any mandatory rights or jurisdictional protections available to you under applicable law. By proceeding with a booking for deep cleaning Battersea, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these terms.
