Frequently Asked Questions

TRUST & SAFETY

If something goes wrong, we’re here to fix it. Please let us know right away, and we’ll take care of it. That’s our promise to you!

Yes, we do. As the final step in our pre-screening process, all applicants are required to pass a criminal record check.

Most of our bookings are made online, so we take security very seriously. Our booking page is protected by extended validation SSL, and our booking form has its own layer of 256-bit security. Credit card transactions are processed by Stripe, which uses 256-bit security as well. Plus, we don’t store your credit card number—just a token that allows us to charge the card when the service is complete.

All our team members are interviewed by the owner and pass a criminal record check. We believe our team is our greatest asset, so we maintain very high standards. Only about 10% of applicants become a Nirvana Clean cleaner.

Our cleaning professionals take pride in delivering the best service possible. If you’re not happy with your service, please get in touch with us within 24 hours. We’ll send your cleaning professionals back to fix any issues at no additional cost (within a 7-day window). They appreciate the chance to show their value and be fairly compensated for their work.

SERVICE PACKAGES

New clients who haven’t had their homes cleaned professionally within the last month will need to add the Deep Clean option in the Extras section to give our crew members the time they need to achieve the high-quality results you expect. Once that’s complete, our Standard Clean is the perfect choice for weekly/biweekly/monthly services moving forward! Otherwise, we cannot guarantee the level of service.

Spot-Clean Walls

Wipe down/Spot-clean walls within arm’s reach using soap and water. Because the integrity of paint is sometimes an issue, our cleaners err on the side of caution when applying cleaning products to the walls. They will do our best to remove basic stains, but sometimes a spot just needs a quick paint touch-up.

Pets are awesome, but messy! This extra provides additional time to remove pet hair from floors and carpets. Does not apply to Upholstery (please see our Services page for more information).

 

Load of Laundry

Wash, Dry, and Fold. Please communicate specific garment needs on the day of your service.

For this service, we handle all your organizing needs, including extras that are usually add-ons. Please estimate the time needed accurately when booking so our cleaning professionals can complete everything you request. We have a three-hour minimum and can stay as long as needed to get things back in order. If your garage, closet, or room feels overwhelming, our organizers are here to help! Give us a call or send us an email to discuss your needs!

If you’re a homeowner, landlord, property manager, tenant, buyer, or seller needing a professional cleaning service, our Move In/Move Out option is perfect! We’ll provide a thorough cleaning to prepare the home for you or the new family moving in. Please ensure the home is empty before our service and that no other people (like movers or tradespeople) are working in the space. We’ll also need electricity and water.

If the home is particularly dirty, we might need to add our Deep Clean service to give our cleaners enough time to do a great job. Give us a call or send us an email to schedule your cleaning!

Our cleaning pros always do their best, but based on their experience, there are a few things we can’t promise or offer. We prioritize safety, quality, and avoiding any risks. If you’re unsure about your cleaning needs or see something on the list that concerns you, just give us a call. We’re here to make sure both you and our cleaning team are happy!

  • No Lifting or moving heavy items (Refrigerator, Stove, Tables, Furniture, etc.)

 

  • No moving vases, hung pictures, or other delicate items.

 

  • Cleaning Hard-to-Reach Areas. For safety reasons, we only clean areas that can be reached with our telescopic tools. If your home needs cleaning beyond these limits, we’ll try to help you find a specialized service.

 

  • Removing excessive pet hair from upholstery. While our Deep Clean option includes vacuuming furniture, removing excessive pet hair from upholstery can be very time-consuming and often doesn’t meet our high standards. Our cleaning pros will do their best, but we hope you understand that it’s a challenging task.
