We are very much aware that dishonest employees can significantly damage our company's impeccable reputation as well as to destroy our business. As you can see, one of our main concern is - Can we trust the employee? - Therefore, before a worker is hired we are not only conduct a thorough background screening, but also for your safety and for our security we are bonded. However, the "Dishonesty Bond" only protects in serious obvious theft problems, it contains a conviction clause to protect our company and our employees against unjustified allegations of dishonesty -- the employee must be caught, tried, and convicted before coverage will apply. Unfortunately, our employees are easy targets for blame. As you can see, other of our main concern is - Can we trust a customer? - Any customer who finds something missing is likely to suspect those (the cleaning people) who do the cleaning. Therefore, we are kindly asking our customers to double check for any missing items before blaming anyone of steeling, being dishonest.

We always call to confirm your appointment for the next day.

(Example: locked doors, the construction crew is not finished and you the customer have to turn them away,) No exceptions!
