FAQ
Preparing for your service
How should I prepare for my appointment?
A little preparation helps our team focus on the work you’ve booked.
Before your appointment, we recommend:
- Securing valuables and fragile items
- Providing clear access instructions
- Letting us know about pets
- Sharing any special priorities or concerns
- Ensuring water and electricity are available when required
- Clearing work areas when possible
How long will my service take?
Service time varies depending on the type of service, size and condition of your home, and scope of work. Larger jobs and first-time visits typically require more time than recurring maintenance visits.
We’ll provide an estimated duration based on the information you share with us. If additional time is needed once our team is on-site, we’ll always confirm with you before proceeding. No surprises!
Do I need to be home during the service?
Not necessarily. Many of our clients provide access instructions and carry on with their day while we take care of their homes.
You’re always welcome to be present if you prefer.
How do I provide access if I'm not home?
You can share a lockbox code, smart lock code, key arrangements, concierge instructions, or other access details before your appointment.
What about pets?
We love pets! Please let us know if you have animals at home and whether they require any special considerations.
For everyone’s safety, we ask that pets be secured when necessary, especially during services involving equipment, chemicals, or open exterior doors.
