Last updated: 23/10/2026

Introduction

Welcome to FreshPlus Professional Cleaning Services. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of our cleaning services and website located in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

By engaging our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. Please read them carefully before booking any cleaning services.

FreshPlus Complete Clean Commitment

Our Promise to You

At FreshPlus, we believe in results, not clock-watching. Our flat rate cleaning services are results-based — we work through our comprehensive checklist until every task is completed to our high professional standards. Here's how we ensure a fair, transparent experience for everyone.

1. Results-Based Service

All flat rate services (Residential, End of Lease, Deep Cleaning) are results-based. We don't leave until every item on the relevant checklist has been completed to our standards. Our cleaning teams receive time estimates as guidelines to help plan their day, but these are not rigid limits — we prioritise quality.

2. Pre-Clean Consultation

Before confirming your booking, we offer a phone consultation to understand the condition and size of your property. This helps us provide an accurate quote and recommend the right service level (standard Residential Clean vs Deep Clean), so there are no surprises on the day. If your property hasn't been professionally cleaned in over a month, we may recommend our Deep Cleaning service to ensure proper results.

3. Extended Time Allowance

On the rare occasions our time estimates prove insufficient, our Complete Clean Commitment comes into effect. We will continue cleaning for up to 1 additional hour beyond our estimate at no extra charge to ensure the job is done right.

4. Transparent Overtime Policy

If the job requires more than 1 additional hour beyond our estimate (for example, due to undisclosed property conditions or significantly heavier cleaning needs than anticipated), we will always contact you before proceeding. Any additional time beyond the included extra hour is charged at our standard hourly rate of $70/hr. You will never be charged more than your quoted price without your explicit consent.

5. No Hidden Fees Guarantee

  • Your quoted price is what you pay — no surprises at checkout
  • Any extras or additional time requires your approval first
  • All payments are processed securely by card after service completion
  • We are transparent about all pricing on our website and in our booking form

6. Deep Clean Recommendation

If your home has not been professionally cleaned in over a month, or has accumulated significant build-up, we strongly recommend booking our Deep Cleaning service rather than a standard Residential Clean. This ensures we can deliver the thorough results you expect without the risk of overtime charges. Our team will advise you during the pre-clean consultation if a service upgrade would better suit your needs.
