Parts of a window or cupboard are not automatically included just because the room is mentioned. Identify each task you need.
“Windows included” may leave frames, tracks or shutters unresolved. Before requesting cleaning after building work, inspect these elements and explain which parts need attention. Counting openings is not enough if some have one pane and others a larger arrangement.
Windows: parts and access
Note the number of units and describe the different types. You could write “two double-casement windows and a glazed door” if that describes your home. State which sides you want cleaned and which parts cannot be reached from inside. Let the company assess hard-to-reach areas; do not try to reach them to complete your description.
- Glazing and sides included.
- Frames and tracks you want cleaned.
- Shutters or other elements, treated as tasks to clarify.
- Adhered residue or areas whose condition needs reviewing.
- Available access and known materials.
Cupboards: outside and inside
Distinguish fronts, shelves, drawers and interiors. If they will be full, clarify who will empty them and put the contents back. Do not assume that handling your belongings is included in the service. Remove any objects you do not want moved from the area and communicate any access restrictions.
If the cupboards are new, provide their references so the company can check that the method is compatible with the finishes.
Review these tasks in the quote alongside the rooms and surfaces. If a part remains unresolved because of lack of access or residue needing assessment, make sure it is identified. When checking the result, use the same list of parts: it lets you raise a specific point without demanding something that was not agreed.
