Services Not Provided

At Yaletown Clean, we’re committed to doing great work on every visit. Part of doing that well means being upfront about what we offer and what we don’t. The tasks below aren’t part of our service, not to limit you, but to protect your home, keep our team safe, and make sure every clean meets the standard you expect from us. If you have questions about what’s included in your service, we’re always happy to talk it through. Give us a call at 778-786-8500 and we’ll walk you through everything. In the meantime, here are the services we don’t provide:

  • We cannot perform services while other services are being performed in or around the home … plumbing, painting, construction, etc.

  • Removing excessive pet hair from upholstery.
  • We do not clean anything exterior of the home.
