Planning shortcuts for Tokai
Expand a topic to compare tiers and booking mechanics—each block links back to city-wide service guides.
Standard vs deep cleaning
Standard visits maintain kitchens and bathrooms between resets; deep cleans budget extra dwell on grout-adjacent zones, ovens, and detail dust-downs. Compare standard cleaning (Cape Town) and deep cleaning (Cape Town) before you lock rooms online.
Move-outs & deposits
Inventory photography cares about wet areas, edges, and appliance interiors you explicitly select. Open move-out cleaning (Cape Town) for scope language, then align booking notes with your agent checklist.
Why quotes lock before payment
Itemised totals remove guesswork—bedrooms, bathrooms, tier, and add-ons set the number you approve before we dispatch to Tokai. Adjust selections until the quote matches your visit, then confirm when it feels right.
