What is a Housemaid Contract Agreement?
A Housemaid Contract Agreement is a contract made between a home owner, office manager, realtor, or building management company and an individual or company providing professional cleaning services. The agreement establishes the terms and conditions of the arrangement between the cleaning service and the customer.
Housekeepers and janitors can use a Housemaid Contract Agreement to help them set up new clients, and specifically perform only the services written into the contract.
Why do I need a Housemaid Contract Agreement?
You can use a Housemaid Contract Agreement to let your customers communicate their expectations for what types of cleaning they want done, and what level of service and detail should be provided for each cleaning task.
For example, they may only need their carpet vacuumed every two weeks; but if their business has a lot of foot traffic, they may want you to vacuum their carpets at least twice a week. A cleaning contract agreement can be used to schedule a recurring cleaning service (weekly, monthly, etc.) or a single annual event like a carpet cleaning or deep cleaning.
Also, certain times of day may be more suitable than others. In some cases, like cleaning a office when the staff is gone, the cleaning job may be subject to strict time limits. These are all good reasons why the terms of your agreement should be written down.
If you are a freelance maid or janitor, you can use a cleaning contract agreement to manage your clients and maintain your self-employment records. Offering a properly drafted legal document assures your prospective customers of your professional credentials and ensures you are legally protected in the event of a dispute over payment.
