Legal Disclaimer for Cleaning Services
The explanations and information provided on this page are only general and high-level explanations and information on how to write your own document of Terms & Conditions specifically tailored to your cleaning service business. You should not rely on this article as legal advice or as recommendations regarding what you should actually include, because we cannot know in advance the specific terms you wish to establish between your business and your clients. We recommend that you seek legal advice to help you understand and to assist you in the creation of your own Terms & Conditions.
Understanding Terms & Conditions for Cleaning Services
Having said that, Terms and Conditions (“T&C”) are a set of legally binding terms defined by you, as the owner of this cleaning services website. The T&C set forth the legal boundaries governing the activities of the website visitors, or your clients, while they engage with your cleaning services. The T&C are meant to establish the legal relationship between the website visitors and you as the service provider.
​
T&C should be defined according to the specific needs and nature of your cleaning services. For example, a website offering cleaning services to clients requires T&C that are different from the T&C of a website only providing information (like a blog, a landing page, and so on).
T&C provide you as the service provider the ability to protect yourself from potential legal exposure, but this may differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, so make sure to receive local legal advice if you are trying to protect yourself from legal exposure.
What to include in the Cleaning Services T&C document
Generally speaking, T&C for cleaning services often address these types of issues: Who is allowed to use the website; the potential cleaning service methods offered; a declaration that the service provider may change the service offering in the future; the types of guarantees the service provider gives to clients; a reference to issues of intellectual property or copyrights, where relevant; the service provider’s right to suspend or cancel a client's service agreement; and much, much more.
