THE PROBLEM

You paid for a "cleaning." Your landlord withheld part of your deposit anyway.

Inside the oven was still greasy. Baseboards were missed. Window tracks had dust. The cleaner said "it's clean." Your damage deposit disagreed.

OUR APPROACH

Published checklist. Photo documentation. Deposit-back guarantee.

Landlord-approved checklist tells you exactly what we will clean. Photo set after delivery as evidence of condition. If your landlord flags cleanliness, we return free within 48 hours.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a move-out clean and a regular clean?+

A move-out clean is significantly deeper. Standard recurring cleans skip inside oven, behind the fridge, inside cabinets, window tracks, light fixtures, baseboards. Move-out cleans include all of these — because that is what landlords inspect. The work takes 3-6 hours typically, vs 1.5-3 for a recurring clean.

What is the deposit-back guarantee?+

If your landlord identifies cleanliness issues on inspection after our clean, contact us within 48 hours. We return free of charge and re-clean the flagged areas. If your deposit is withheld specifically for cleaning reasons on areas we were contracted to clean, we cover the withholding up to the cost of our service. Documented in our booking confirmation.

Do you book same-day or next-day?+

We try to. For move-outs with 24-48 hours notice, we book fast. Realtors with listing photos scheduled get priority. Over-the-weekend and emergency bookings: call us, we will slot you in.

What does a standard move-out clean include?+

Published checklist. Kitchen: inside oven, inside fridge, inside cabinets and drawers, stovetop and hood, countertops, sink, exterior of appliances, floor. Bathrooms: full bathroom clean, inside cabinets, exhaust fans, light fixtures. All rooms: floors, baseboards, window tracks, light fixtures, switches, vents, closets, doors. Standard size 3-6 hours.

Do you bring supplies?+

Yes. Commercial-grade cleaning products, equipment for deep cleans (steam cleaners, pressure-based tools for oven interior, scrubbers for grout). Eco-friendly options available on request.

Can I be there during the clean?+

Your choice. Many tenants leave us a key or lockbox code and go run errands. Realtors usually aren't there. Landlords sometimes stay for final walkthrough. Works either way — we photo-document so non-attendance is not a concern.

How is pricing structured?+

Flat rate per unit size (studio / 1-bed / 2-bed / 3-bed+). All standard checklist items included in base price. Extras (carpet deep extraction via Pilemark referral, wall spot-painting via Prymera) priced separately. First-time customers get 10% off.

About Shiftclair

Shiftclair was started because tenants were losing damage deposits to "cleaning fees" they thought they had already paid to avoid — and landlords were wasting days doing turnover cleans themselves because hired cleaners did not deliver.

Published checklist. Deposit-back guarantee. Photo-documented. Flat-rate pricing online. Keys returned. Deposit returned.
