  • One or more of the services you ordered were listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error.

Cleaner Non Engagement

  • The client acknowledges that T.P.H invests significant resources in recruiting, selecting, and training its cleaners. Unless T.P.H gives prior written permission, the client may not, directly or indirectly, engage, employ, or contract with any cleaner introduced to you by T.P.H to provide domestic services to the client or any associate of the client for a period of 24 months after the conclusion of any service.

Liability

To the fullest extent permissible by law, T.P.H disclaims all out of or due to:

  • Your use of, inability to use, or availability or unavailability of the services
  • The occurrence or existence of any defect, interruption, or delays in the operation or transmission of information to, from, or through the services, communications failure, theft, destruction, or unauthorized access to our records, programs, services, servers, or other infrastructure relating to the services;
  • The failure of the services to remain operational for any period of time; and
  • The loss of any user content and any other data in connection with your use of the services

Under no circumstances will the company be liable for any loss, expense, damage, delay, costs, or compensation (whether direct, indirect, or consequential) that the client may sustain or incur as a result of or in connection with:

  • Late arrival of company operatives at the service address. The company endeavors to be punctual; sometimes, it is not within our control how the public transport system operates. Company operatives who arrive late due to transportation factors may be entitled to reschedule when the services cannot be performed.
  • A cleaning job is not completed due to a lack of cleaning materials, a lack of hot water or electricity, or equipment that is not in full working order.
  • Third-party entering or present at the client’s premises during the cleaning process.
  • Existing damage to the client’s property in the form of old stains, burns, spills, etc., which cannot be cleaned or removed completely by the cleaning operative using the client’s cleaning equipment and materials
  • Any damages caused by faulty or not-in full-working-order equipment or materials supplied by the client
  • Services are not provided to the client because of dishonored payments or overdue accounts.

Accidents, Breakage, Damage, and Theft

  • T.P.H provides public liability insurance. The policy will cover major accidental damage caused by our cleaners.
  • The client must inform us of any incident where an accident, breakage, or damage to property has occurred due to any act of the cleaner within 24 hours of the completion of the service.
  • Any claims reported later than 24 hours after the cleaning will not be considered. Damage done on Monday at 6:00 p.m. must be reported by the claimant no later than Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. to be considered a valid claim.
  • All fragile and highly breakable items must be secured or removed. The company requests that all irreplaceable items (whether monetarily or sentimentally valuable) be stored away or not cleaned by the cleaning operatives to minimize the risk of damage.
  • Items excluded from liability are cash, jewelry, items of sentimental value, art, and antiques.
  • The company may require entry to the premises within 24 hours of the claim being made to correct the problem or investigate the claim. If we can offer you an immediate resolution, we will do so upon arrival. Any refunds or adjustments must be requested directly from the company after considering factors relevant to validating your claim.
  • We encourage the practice of submitting your claim within the time frame specified, as it will minimize the risk of jeopardizing the investigation or may prevent the client or third parties from causing further damage.
  • While the company operatives make every effort to avoid accidents, sometimes they are inevitable. If the company’s staff member has caused damage to your property, we will repair the item at our expense. If the item cannot be repaired, the company will endeavor to replace the item with something of like or near value; if that is not practical, we will offer the client the current value of the item, provided that all the client's accounts have been settled.
  • Your claim will be invalid if you have overdue balances outstanding.
  • Any key replacement or locksmith fees are paid only if keys are lost by our operatives.
  • The company shall not be responsible for damage due to the faulty and/or improper installation of any item. All surfaces (e.g., marble, granite, etc.) are assumed to be sealed and ready to clean without causing harm.
  • We will report any attempt to commit insurance fraud or the use of false information to commit fraud to the police and prosecute the perpetrators to the fullest extent permitted by law. We may also make a claim with the insurance provider for compensation. You agree to bear the cost of any legal action we take in that regard.

We record all incoming and outgoing phone conversations for quality control, record-keeping, and back-referral for any inquiries or investigations.

In no event shall our total liability to you in connection with these terms exceed AED 100. Nothing in these terms will exclude or limit any warranty implied by law that it would be unlawful to exclude or limit.

Complaints

  • All complaints that do not involve damage or claims must be received in writing to T.P.H. We must receive your complaint within 24 hours of service delivery.
  • We will thoroughly investigate any complaint and attempt to resolve it to the satisfaction of the client or, alternatively, to a reasonable standard.
  • If you have submitted a complaint, we may require access to the premises within 24 hours of the report to correct any shortcomings or to investigate. In such an event, we will give you prior notice.

Employee Rights

We operate a zero-tolerance policy towards verbal, physical, and sexual abuse of staff and customers. This includes intimidation, bullying, harassment, and discrimination in any form. We will prosecute or seek the maximum penalty under the law in cases of such abuse. Additionally, we may make a report to the police and seek compensation where we see fit.
