Looking for household-cleaning help in Shellharbour? Tell Smurfettes which rooms and tasks you would like cleaned, the exact service address and your preferred timing. A written quote can explain the proposed work, price and arrangements so you can decide whether the service suits your household.
Keep a copy of your written quote
Keep the dated quote you receive. If the tasks, price or other important terms change, ask for an updated version and keep both. This helps you, your nominee or plan manager see what was offered and accepted.
Check what is included
Check the legal business name, address, proposed date or frequency, cleaning tasks, exclusions, products, equipment, access, expected time or price basis, tax and invoice details. Ask about cancellation or travel terms where relevant. The accepted quote should describe your booking rather than relying on a general service description.
Make sure the quote matches your home
Check the rooms, surfaces, priorities, care instructions, access details and communication preferences. If the quote assumes an area is clear, an item can be moved or a contact can approve a change, confirm that those details are correct.
Ask about broad or unclear descriptions
If a phrase such as “full clean” or “all surfaces” is unclear, ask which rooms and tasks it includes. A written task list helps you understand the work, any limits and what should be left alone.
Cleaning may not remove every stain or restore a damaged finish. Ask for the proposed tasks and realistic limits to be explained without relying on a guaranteed result.
Protect private rooms and belongings
Tell us what should not be moved, opened or cleaned, including paperwork, medication, mobility equipment, fragile possessions, private storage and another resident’s belongings. An open room, available key or support person being present does not automatically authorise extra work.
Specialist work and tenancy cleaning
Repairs, mould remediation, clinical decontamination, pest treatment, restoration, unsafe high-access work and heavy-item movement need separate assessment. Vacate or tenancy-compliance obligations should also remain separate from a proposed disability-support cleaning request.
Agree access and the order of work
Confirm the entrance, parking, stairs or lift, pets, communication preference, arrival contact and any route that must stay clear. Choose the first cleaning priorities and check that the tasks and exclusions are understood.
Ask about anything missing or unclear before accepting. The team can clarify the task, explain whether it can be offered or discuss an assessment of the exact address.
Check NDIS funding separately
A quote, provider registration, service category or plan balance does not by itself confirm that NDIS funds can be used. Current NDIS information says support with everyday cleaning may be available through Core Supports, while the exact purchase must still be an NDIS support for the participant, related to disability and in line with the plan.
Check self-managed purchasing and record duties, the plan manager’s authorisation and invoice process, or current NDIA-managed registered-provider and my-provider requirements as applicable. A funding question belongs with the person or organisation authorised to decide it. Keep private-pay lines separate from the NDIS record.
Accept the final agreed quote
The participant or authorised contact should accept one dated quote with the agreed tasks, timing and price. Clarify any unanswered question about access, permission, charges or funding before accepting the affected work.
Changes before or during the visit
Tell us about a new room, blocked area, different product, unexpected condition or extra request. Any changed work needs the appropriate approval. If it changes the tasks, time or price, ask for the updated agreement in writing.
Check your service record and invoice
Compare completed, changed and unfinished work with the accepted quote. Check the service date, task descriptions, quantities or time, rates, tax and total. Ask for an explanation or correction if a charge does not match the agreed work.
