Rescheduling

We gladly send you an email or text message twenty-four (24) hours prior to the day to remind you of your service schedule. You have the option to confirm the timetable or alter it as you see fit using this notification. If you don’t respond, it means that your service will happen when it’s scheduled or announced.

Upon receiving a legitimate written notice of cancellation for the service, there won’t be any processing fees.

If the customer does not let the Pros in on time for the planned cleaning appointment for the Spotless By ND Lite package, the cleaning session will be forfeited.
