For a one-off household clean on the Central Coast, tell Smurfettes which tasks would make the most difference in the home. You can request a single visit for agreed kitchen, bathroom or living-area cleaning, or other ordinary household tasks. Choose the priority rooms and what you want done in each. We can discuss the work, confirm an appointment at your address and prepare a written quote. An enquiry does not guarantee funding, a date or a particular cleaning result.
Choose the tasks for one visit
Describe the work you want, such as wiping reachable benches or shelves, cleaning agreed bathroom fittings, vacuuming or mopping an accessible floor. Put the most important tasks first, especially if the amount of work may exceed one visit. Tell us what has to stay untouched. A one-off clean is not an automatic ongoing booking; another visit needs its own agreed tasks and quote.
Explain the condition and any cleaning limits
Let us know about heavy build-up, existing chips, wear, discolouration or unstable items where they affect the task. Ordinary household cleaning is different from repairs, stain restoration, resurfacing, mould treatment, pest work and other specialist remediation. Those jobs need separate assessment and are not automatically part of the one-off quote. Cleaning may improve a surface without removing every mark or making an older finish look new.
Tell us about products and surfaces
Share relevant manufacturer instructions, care labels, product restrictions and household preferences. Discuss agreed methods, such as dry dusting or a labelled neutral product, and any surface that should stay dry or cannot take a particular tool, heat, moisture or pressure. Confirm who will supply the agreed products and where they will be available. If a product is missing, unlabelled or different on the day, the affected task needs clarification before another product is used.
If a material or suitable method is uncertain, tell us rather than guessing from its appearance. Even a hidden-area test can change a finish and needs an agreed method and appropriate permission. The participant or authorised person can explain their preferences and permissions; a resident, owner, landlord, manufacturer or specialist may need to answer a question about another person’s property or a particular finish. Leave an unresolved surface out of the visit while suitable tasks elsewhere can proceed as quoted.
Agree access, belongings and shared spaces
Identify the rooms that can be entered, furniture that must stay in place, and any stairs, pets or communication needs relevant to the visit. Permission for one surface does not authorise entry to another room or moving belongings. For shared benches, floors or bathroom fittings, agree who can approve the method and which work relates to the participant. Do not automatically put the cleaning of an entire shared surface on one participant’s NDIS request.
Only share keys, codes or alarm instructions securely after the service, appointment and recipient are confirmed. A short description of an existing condition is often enough. If a photo is necessary, agree what it shows, who will receive it, how it is shared and when it will be deleted.
Check the written quote before booking
Check the rooms, priority tasks, surfaces, methods, products, access, exclusions, amount of work and price. Ask how unfinished tasks, optional work and any changed price will be handled. If one room has several finishes, make the care requirements clear before accepting. The quote should distinguish the household cleaning requested from any separately assessed specialist work.
Check NDIS funding separately
A one-off clean is not automatically an NDIS support. The tasks must relate to the participant’s disability support needs and meet their current plan and NDIS requirements. Ask the plan manager, support coordinator or the participant’s NDIS contact to check any uncertain task, budget or payment route before booking. For NDIA-managed funding, the provider must be registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission for the relevant support. Ask the participant’s NDIS contact whether a my-provider record or other payment step is needed for the business named on the quote. A cleaning quote does not itself approve funding.
If something changes during the visit
If an unfamiliar surface, existing damage, missing permission or unexpected condition affects a task, stop that task and speak with the authorised contact. Do not substitute another area without agreement. A different product, tool, moisture level or amount of work may change the result or price; confirm the care instructions, permission and price, and record material changes in writing before the affected work continues. Unaffected agreed tasks can still proceed.
Review the completed work
After the visit, check which tasks were delivered, changed, excluded or left unfinished and compare that record with the agreed quote and invoice. Ask about anything unclear before treating it as completed or booking another visit.
