Looking for household-cleaning help at a Gosford address on the Central Coast? Request a written quote or call 1300 525 336, and tell Smurfettes which rooms or tasks matter most, the exact address, requested frequency and preferred timing. We will check the request and explain the useful next step. If other days or times could also work for you, mention them so we can discuss appointment options.
Household-cleaning tasks to discuss
Requests may include vacuuming an agreed living-room floor, mopping suitable hard surfaces, wiping accessible kitchen benches or cleaning specified bathroom surfaces. Tell us what you want included and anything to leave alone. Repairs, pest treatment, mould or biohazard work, clinical cleaning, waste removal and other specialist services require separate assessment, permission and pricing.
The rooms and areas in your request
Include the exact Gosford address through the enquiry channel and name the rooms you want cleaned. Mention fragile items, belongings that should not be moved and products that need approval. In a shared home, distinguish the participant’s rooms, other residents’ rooms and agreed shared spaces from building common property, landlord or property-manager work, SIL support and housing obligations.
Tell us about anything that affects the work
A task may depend on safe access, permission, an agreed product, equipment, another task or confirmed timing. Please tell us about these requirements before the visit. If something is uncertain, ask the appropriate person to clarify it before the affected work is included.
Laundry assistance is a separate request
Laundry has its own washing, drying, folding, item-care and return instructions. Discuss it separately from room cleaning and ask for a separate quote line. See NDIS laundry assistance guide for more information.
Put the most important tasks first
List your priorities in the order that matters to you. If time is limited, tell us which less urgent work can wait. An estimated visit length does not guarantee every task will be completed. A preferred time also needs written confirmation before it becomes a booking.
Questions to clarify before the visit
- Permission to make decisions: Confirm consent with the person legally authorised to decide.
- Tasks and exclusions: Agree which cleaning actions are included and what is left out.
- Access: Confirm workable entry, room-access and lock-up instructions.
- Preparation: Complete any work needed first, or agree a suitable alternative.
- Products and equipment: Confirm any required product approval or equipment before the task starts.
- Safety: Resolve the specific safety question before the affected work proceeds.
- Timing: Confirm the date, arrival window and any task that must happen at a particular time.
- Funding: Check the applicable NDIS support, plan-management and payment requirements.
- Other arrangements: Ask the appropriate contact to confirm how any remaining issue will be handled.
If your priorities or tasks change
Tell us before adding, removing or reordering tasks. A change may affect preparation, time, price or another part of the clean. Ask for the revised arrangements in writing rather than assuming the earlier quote covers the new request.
Access and privacy
Include useful parking, gate or intercom, stairs or lift, pets, mobility or sensory considerations, communication preferences and lock-up instructions. Identify any rooms that should stay closed. Share keys and alarm codes securely with the intended recipient only when needed, and remove access details that are no longer valid.
Your authorised contact
Tell us who can accept the quote, provide access, change priorities and check payment. These may be different people. A nominee, support coordinator, plan manager, family member, property contact, SIL worker or housing provider should not be assumed to hold every permission. Any uncertainty should be clarified before the affected work proceeds.
Check NDIS funding for the requested tasks
Whether household cleaning can be paid from a participant’s NDIS funding depends on the participant’s disability-related support needs, their plan and current NDIS requirements. A quote or booking does not confirm funding. Keep ordinary household expenses, repairs, direct tenancy costs and work for other residents outside the participant’s NDIS cleaning and payment requests. Ask for private-pay work to be described and priced separately. For invoice arrangements, self-managed participants or authorised nominees can provide their billing details, while plan-managed participants can provide the plan manager’s invoice details. For self-managed funding, check your plan, evidence, budget and payment process. For plan-managed funding, confirm the plan manager’s support and invoice checks. Before relying on NDIA-managed payment, confirm the required provider registration and current steps for recording the provider with the NDIA. Check individual funding and payment questions with the participant’s plan manager or NDIS contact before booking.
Keep tenancy costs separate
Vacate or end-of-tenancy cleaning needs its own task list and written quote. As a general rule, NDIS funding does not cover exit cleaning that is a direct cost of meeting a tenancy agreement. Limited transitional exceptions may apply to certain existing plans; ask your NDIS contact to check whether an exception applies before booking. If you also need routine disability-related household cleaning around a move, describe those tasks separately and ask your authorised funding contact to check them against your plan before booking. Keep the task descriptions, prices and invoices separate; a quote does not approve NDIS payment.
Review your written quote
Check that the quote includes the business name, address, rooms, tasks, priorities, exclusions, timing and frequency. Ask about the expected duration, hourly or fixed price, travel, parking, minimum charges, products, equipment, cancellation or rescheduling terms, incident contact, invoices and how to request changes. Tasks still awaiting clarification should not be treated as agreed work.
Keep agreed changes with your quote
Ask for an updated quote when the tasks, rooms, access, timing, authorised contact or price change. Keep the accepted quote, relevant approvals, changes and invoice together. Share them only with people who need the information and leave out unrelated health, family or financial details.
