Frequently Asked Questions


  • What will Excel Building Services clean in my space?

    Every client’s needs are different, so we will work from your priority list rather than a checklist of standard services. You set the priorities. Before your cleaning crew arrives for each cleaning, you could prepare a priority list of work that you expect to be accomplished. You can always adjust your list to detail any special needs that you would like performed on your next visit.

  • How often will Excel Building Services clean my space?

    We offer one-time, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly cleaning service. Just let us know what your needs are, and we can customize and prioritize your cleanings.

  • Do I have to provide the cleaning supplies?

    Not at all. Our housekeepers carry their own environmentally friendly cleaning supplies and their own equipment.

  • Does anyone need to be present when the cleaning team arrives?

    No! However, we recommend you meet your cleaners the first time and after you have established a regular cleaning team, you decide the best arrangements for your personal cleaning needs.

  • Can I trust the Excel Building Services staff in my space?

    For security, all our cleaners are REQUIRED to pass a background check prior to being hired. They are fully trained and experienced through video and hands-on training, only the professionals who clean your space have access to the keys, and the keys are stored in a doubly-locked box at our offices.

  • What is the cancellation policy?

    If you need to change or cancel a scheduled service, we require one business day’s notice /
    24hr notice.

  • What if I am not happy with the cleaning team sent out?

    If you are satisfied with the first cleaning team that we send and use the service on a regular basis, then they become your regular team. If, for any reason, you are not satisfied, we will refer a new cleaning team who better suits your needs for the next service. If you are not happy, we want to know so we can make things right!

  • What payment methods do you accept?

    We accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express for your convenience. Or, if you prefer you can pay your housekeeper with cash or check (some exceptions with paying in check) at the time of your service.

  • How is your billing calculated?

    Rates are quoted per person per hour. Typically teams size are 2 or 3 people. We reserve the exclusive right to select the team size based on the cleaning job, schedule and staffing requirements for that day. The team size DOES NOT affect the overall cost as we prorate the billing time and obviously a larger team works faster.

  • Do I need to tip my cleaner?

    We leave that up to you. Tips are always appreciated!

  • How can I schedule carpet cleaning?

    We currently only offer carpet cleaning to our established clients. If you are a current client and would like to get a carpet cleaning scheduled, please give us a call: (859) 225-4098

  • What if something is damaged when my space is cleaned?

    In the unlikely event that something should become damaged or broken while we are cleaning, we will make every effort to have the item repaired, or replaced if it cannot be repaired. Insurance claims will be filed when appropriate. We treat your home with considerable care to ensure that accidents do not occur.
