Platform

NG Solutions Cleaning PROVIDES A MARKETPLACE PLATFORM where persons seeking home services (“Service Requesters” or “Requesters”) can be matched with persons, companies, or entities offering home services (“Service Providers” or “Providers”). Requesters and Providers are collectively referred to herein as “Users.” Users can create a User account which enables access to the NG Solutions Cleaning. For purposes of this Agreement, the services provided by Providers to Requesters that are matched through the Platform shall be referred to collectively as the “Services,” “jobs,” “bookings,” or “Home Services”.

All Users requesting or accepting services from NG Solutions Cleaning are aware NG Cleaning Services is a platform and not a service provider. The Service Provider is being hired to fulfill a duty outside of the competency of NG Solutions Cleaning. Service Providers will be responsible for fulfilling services assigned to them based on their selected criteria through the NG Solutions Cleaning. Any decision by a User to offer or accept Services is a decision made in such User’s sole discretion. Each Service provided by a Provider to a Requester shall constitute a separate agreement between such persons and/or entities.

You retain the sole right to determine when, where, and for how long you will utilize the NG Cleaning Services. You retain the option to accept or to decline or ignore a Requester’s request for Services, or to cancel an accepted request for Services via the Platform, subject to NG Cleaning Services then-current cancellation policies.

Poaching and Recruitment

Professional house cleaners working with NG Cleaning Services have agreed, in writing, that they or their family and friends will not accept direct employment from any Customer of NG Cleaning Services accept for tips given at the time of the service. This agreement is in full force and effective during the time that professional house cleaners are working with NG Cleaning Services and for a period of one year after the termination of their agreement with NG Cleaning Services. Given this, we respectfully ask that you do not directly solicit or engage the service of any professional house cleaner, except through NG Cleaning Services.

Once the Customer has paid the referral fee, NG Cleaning Services will no longer be responsible for monitoring and managing the professional house cleaner, including, but not limited to liability protection, information security, scheduling, government taxes, quality of services, and any other act pertaining to the daily work duties of the Housekeeper.

Continued use of the NG Solutions Cleaning or Services after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes.

Right of Refusal

NG Cleaning Services reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason. These reasons include but are not limited to: not being able to gain entry to a home, no power, no electricity, no air conditioning or heating, frequent cancellations or schedule changes, improper or dishonest booking, project out of scope of the original booking, not listing all the bedrooms, bathrooms or total sqft (even if we’re not cleaning them), being rude to staff or Providers, poaching or attempting to poach Providers away from NG Cleaning Services (at any price), and/or incorrect or non-functioning billing information.

Communications Policy

NG Cleaning Services relies heavily on open communication with our cleaning teams to provide excellent service. That means they may be on their phones taking calls, texting or taking photographs while cleaning. These communications are crucial to maintaining a high-quality service and something we encourage.

We understand some customers prefer teams to stay off their phones while cleaning. We’ll make every effort to maintain this. However, some calls, text, and photos may be required to maintain quality.

Appointment Confirmations

Once a booking has been processed online it must be manually confirmed. If NG Cleaning Services can’t confirm an appointment, the appointment may be canceled. At which time the Requester will receive a cancellation notice. An open time slot on ngcleaningservices.com doesn’t guarantee a Provider will be available and/or the job/service will be confirmed.

Any confirmation emails which may have been received are subject to change. Meaning, an appoint which was once confirmed can become unconfirmed depending on circumstances. NG Cleaning Services is not bound to perform a service even if the service has been confirmed.
