Questions to Ask Your Tradie
• Do you have public liability insurance and what level of cover do you carry?
• Do you provide a written quote and can you itemise extras (oven, carpets, disposal)?
• What cleaning products will you use and can you use hypoallergenic or non‑bleach alternatives?
• Who will attend the job — a single cleaner or a team — and are they vetted or ID checked?
• What happens if you discover mould, vermin or contaminated waste during the clean?
• Do you offer a satisfaction guarantee and how are post‑clean issues handled?
How to Avoid Surprises
• clear surfaces and put away valuables and breakables
• ensure a parking space nearby or tell the cleaner about restrictions
• secure or remove pets and inform the tradie of any animal concerns
• provide access to hot water, electricity and vacuum points
• agree extras in advance (oven, carpets, interior windows) as they are often quoted separately
• check building rules for communal entry, noise times or working‑at‑height permits
