TERMS OF SERVICE:
By booking services when booking services with Hop2Mop LLC, you, the client, agree to fully adopt and adhere to the following terms and conditions (“Terms of Service”).
1. All clients, regardless of type, should read and understand these Terms of Service. These apply and are legally binding to all our clients who book a service with us over the phone, through our website or by email. By booking a service with us, you agree to have a pre-authorization hold placed on your credit/debit card for the full amount of your service 48 hours before your service then charged at the end of the day of service.
2. Hop2Mop LLC provides interior residential cleaning services only. We service residential properties. Only when hired to do a trash-out cleaning will we remove large amounts of clutter, items and trash to a client-provided dumpster container. Those trash-out cleaning services are at a different rate than our typical cleaning services.
3. Both the client and Hop2Mop LLC and our Independent Contractors are responsible for clear communication and being responsible with the clients’ belongings and property. All incidents big or small are to be reported immediately.
4. Hop2Mop LLC guarantees client satisfaction. We typically charge a flat rate to perform cleaning services based on the average amount of time to complete the cleaning of your size home. We reserve the right to update your service to the correct service should you choose the incorrect service for your needs. Should you decline updating your booking to the correct service, we cannot and will not guarantee our work. If we miss something included in your cleaning, we will come back to correct it for no extra charge. This guarantee is for 72 hours –you must notify us within 72 hours and allow us back into the location to correct the area of the original cleaning. In addition to that, in the case we arrive at your home and determine you require additional services not booked, such as a deep clean, we will communicate the required changes and costs upfront. If you do not agree to the additional charges, we will perform your booked services but cannot guarantee you a complete cleaning. If we arrive to the home and determine there is excessive dust/dirt/grime/grease, we will add a heavy duty cleaning fee of $60 to your booking.
5. Hop2Mop LLC reserves the right not to clean any home based on common sense policies that protect everyone like a safe working environment, presence or suspicion of bugs of any sort, presence of blood or hazardous material (i.e. mold, etc), and presence or suspicion of rodents of any kind.
6. Any wording, image, or other content found on Hop2Mop LLC’s website, blog, Facebook page, or any other company-managed website or social media page are the sole responsibility and ownership of Hop2Mop LLC.
7. All matters arising out of or relating to the Services provided hereunder, whether sounding in contract, tort, or statute, for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the District of Columbia, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that would cause the laws of any other jurisdiction other than those of the District of Columbia to apply. Any action or proceeding by either of the Parties to enforce this Agreement shall generally be brought in a state or federal court located in the District of Columbia.
8. Recleans. All re-cleanings and refund requests need to be reported within 3-days of the original service. We appreciate the chance to make things right with a re-cleaning before any refunds. Per our policy, we can’t issue any refunds without doing a re-cleaning first. In addition, we won’t be able to offer a refund or a re-cleaning if you dispute the charge and/or try and hire our teams independently of Hop2Mop LLC, are offensive or abusive to our teams, or you didn’t have running water or power during the time of the initial cleaning.
9. Uncontrollable natural events. Please keep in mind that residential cleaning has some unpredictable circumstances such as vehicle accidents on the road or health emergencies with the cleaning individual that may lead to last-minute rescheduling in rare instances. It may be best to schedule your cleanings in advance of having an event or turning over a property. We are not responsible for any outcomes resulting from an emergency reschedule due to the cleaner’s inability to work.
10. Right to Reschedule. In order to respect all clients’ schedule, if your cleaning requires much more time than discussed, we reserve the right to schedule the additional cleaning time for a different day.
11. Photos. We respect your right to privacy. Occasionally we like to take before and after pictures of our work in your home or office. These pictures are used for cleaner assessments, proof of performance, as well as company promotion. Interior images will be focused on the area that we have cleaned to demonstrate our cleaning services. Images may also focus on any damage we may find and will not be focused on personal property unless it was damaged and required by our insurance to process a claim. By booking our services, you consent to our use of before and after pictures of areas we have cleaned in your home or office in advertisements on places such as our website, Facebook, Instagram, Yelp, Google, etc. At no point will any picture include images of any person living or working in the home or office.

Pictures must be provided for broken items or damaged areas to either [email protected]. You must allow us to send a professional to assess damage and perform repairs in the case we damage something. You must allow us to replace items in the case we break something. Failure to report damages within 48 hours results in customer assuming liability.
