Common Items to Note

  • Extensions

    Items to be washed must be reachable with a 2-step ladder, otherwise a dusting extension will be used. We do not climb higher than a 2-step ladder. Higher items will only be dusted with an extension duster. Most homes have at least one chandelier or vaulted ceiling fan that we cannot reach by hand.

  • Windows and Blinds

    We clean both sides of double-hung windows (windows that easily open indoors). If we cannot open a window or if it is blocked by a screen protector, we cannot clean the outside. We clean the windows in place and do not remove any screen protectors from the window. For extensive window cleaning or for hard to reach windows, we recommend that clients book a window cleaning company. Windows must be accessible prior to the technician arriving.


    Blinds are dusted and/or vacuumed in place. We do not wash or remove blinds. For deep cleaning of blinds, a blind cleaning company that has an electrostatic blind-cleaner or similar would be the best option.

  • Tidying Up

    Please note that our cleaning service does not include tidying up and making beds unless it has been added to your work order. If you would like to add on this service, please email us for a quote. We send all clients a document to sign which details how to prepare your home for a cleaning.

  • Furniture Moving

    We clean items in place to reduce risk of breakage. We do not move furniture, however if you want underneath the furniture cleaned, you may leave it moved prior to the appointment so our cleaning technicians can clean under it. We try to reach any visible places either by hand or with an extension duster.

  • Trash

    Trash cans are to be made available and accessible on site. Our Philadelphia house cleaning services include removing trash from your home and re-lining the trash bins. Our technicians are not able to take trash off site with them.

  • Cleaning Products

    All cleaning supplies will be provided by Life Maid Easy unless the client notes otherwise. Clients must provide their own toilet brushes in each toilet (to prevent cross-contamination), trash bags, and 1 roll of paper towels (to also prevent cross-contamination).

  • Extensive Cleaning

    Please note that virtual quotes are approximate. If your home requires additional cleaning, our maids in Philadelphia will let us know and we will contact you to determine any additional cost.

  • First-Time Cleaning

    We recommend that each client, regardless of their previous cleaning service, starts with one of our Deep Cleaning options (Option #2 Top to Bottom Deluxe Deep Cleaning or Option #3 Top to Bottom Value Deep Cleaning. We have seen time and time again that our customers are most satisfied with the results if they start our program with these options and we then maintain the level of cleanliness with our Maintenance Cleaning options. 


    If you start with our Maintenance Cleaning, we may not have the time to complete all of the items and you may not be as satisfied with the initial result. We may have multiple cleanings to get your home to a maintainable state of cleanliness.

  • Customer Satisfaction

    Please allow for some dust resettlement after we leave, we try to limit the dust in the air but cannot prevent this entirely. Our Philadelphia maids are highly trained to perform to high standards of cleanliness in a systemized top to bottom, left to right approach. If you are not satisfied with the job, please let us know within 24 hours by emailing us dated photos at info@lifemaideasy.net along with the description of what was missed. Please note that we do not offer refunds but we do work with our customers to make sure everything in scope has been completed.

  • Payment

    • We use a secure payment system. Your credit card on file will be automatically charged for the service.
    • Initial payment for the first appointment is due upfront.
    • Life Maid Easy charges a 5% late fee.
    • By agreeing to receive our services, you agree to the Client Success and Unfair Solicitation Agreement (Adobe document in your email).
