Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Maids Du Jour, Ltd. is licensed, insured, and bonded.
In order for the Maids to do their jobs properly, we ask that you pick up clothing, toys, and other household items. The Maids do not know where your personal items belong, and we prefer that they do not disturb your closets or drawers to put things away. Maids Du Jour, Ltd. also requests that you put away valuables and heirlooms to help reduce accidents.
If you need to reschedule or skip a regular cleaning day, we appreciate at least two (2) business days’ notice. If we receive shorter notice, it may be necessary for us to assess a fee of 25% of your cleaning charge (a minimum of $25 will be needed to cover expenses).
Payments are due the day of your scheduled cleaning service. The preferred methods of payment are Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, or cashier’s check. Cashier’s checks should be left on the kitchen counter or table for the Maid to collect upon arrival. Some services, such as first time cleanings or a one-time service, require pre-payment. You may also pay on our website at www.maidsdujour.com or over the phone at (872) 829-3511.
Our Maids work solo for most cleanings. We will send two or more Maids if the scope of the cleaning (size of the home or project) mandates additional help.
All of our Maids provide the same consistent service to each customer. We will always send one thoroughly trained Maid to clean your home. If you have an unusually large job, we will send additional Maids. Customers who receive weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly services will be accommodated if they have a preferred Maid. If you would like to make a change, please do not hesitate to ask.
While every effort is made to use great care in your home, accidents do happen. Our maids are trained to notify our office – and you – immediately if something is broken or damaged. If we break or damage something, we will make every effort to have the item repaired or, if necessary, replaced. We limit our loss to the replacement value or repair cost, whichever is less.
Maids Du Jour, Ltd. can provide all cleaning supplies, vacuums, and equipment for an additional charge. Chemical and non-chemical supplies are available. If you prefer that your own products are used, Maids Du Jour, Ltd. is not liable for any damage to your property.
Most of our clients are not at home when Maids Du Jour, Ltd. Maids come to clean. We make personal and confidential arrangements with you regarding gaining access to your home. If your home is equipped with a security system, we prefer that your alarm system is turned off on the day of service, but we will disarm and reset the alarm for you if you wish. Failure to allow Maids Du Jour, Ltd. access to your home will result in an additional fee.
