Please note that the work area is defined as extending 30 feet from any item or area where work is being performed.

It is your responsibility to notify them before our arrival. You will be held liable for any damage to their property within the defined work area.

An additional charge may be applied for the time and labor devoted to the removal of these items. If a grill is on wheels and easily moved, it may remain on the area that will be cleaned.
11) Damages:
Please note that the work area is defined as extending 30 feet from any item or area where work is being performed. Mansfield Services LLC will not be held liable for any damage to items left within this work area. Please inform your neighbors if their property may fall within this area. It is your responsibility to notify them before our arrival. You will be held liable for any damage to their property within the defined work area.
Mansfield Services LLC is not responsible for damages due to improper installation, age, state, outdated equipment or material, equipment or material outside of current and/or typical manufatctured standards, neglect, or preexisting conditions on items such as, but not limited to, siding, shingles, broken or open windows, improperly sealed windows and doors, wood rot, defective construction, improperly secured wires, mortar, brick, stone, loose or improperly installed components of the gutter system, cracked or aged caulking, uncapped dryer feet, incorrectly installed ducts, or ducts that are not a 4 inch rigid metal pipe. In many aluminum siding cases and in some cases with vinyl siding, the sun and weather can bleach the color, cause fading, and cause oxidation. Power washing, which entails the use of pressurized water and/or a high volume of water, can sometimes remove all or some of the chalky oxidation, gritty, or failing surface materials, this may cause parts of the vinyl or aluminum to stand out. Mansfield Services LLC will not be responsible for such conditions.
12) Stains:
Some stains cannot be removed by power or soft washing. Stains caused by vehicle exhaust and brake dust, tree sap, artillery fungus, splatters from stains and paints, the oil in some hand prints, and exhaust from fuel burning home appliances, are examples of materials that cannot be removed by conventional means. We make every attempt to point these areas out to the customer when quoting the project, but some things may be missed in our walkaround. Sometimes these stains cannot be removed at all.
13) Watertight:
Mansfield Services LLC expects the property to be in good repair and watertight. This includes, but is not limited to, all electrical components including receptacles and light fixtures, doors and windows, or any area water could potentially enter. Mansfield Services LLC Services is not responsible for damages as a result of water infiltration from poor or improper installation, maintenance, age, or repair of electrical-related components, doors, and windows. It is our recommendation that electricity be turned off to any area that could potentially be exposed to water. Mansfield Services LLC will not be held liable for any damage related to water infiltration or electricity being left on.
14) Window Spotting:
Windows may become water spotted as a result of our services. Window cleaning is NOT included. This is typically due to impurities in water.
15) Window Cleaning Service:
This service is for exterior glass only and is a general window washing. Pricing will not include any specialized cleaning unless agreed upon prior to service. Specialized cleaning may be possible, but needs to be communicated prior to arriving on site.
16) Gutter Cleaning Service:
Gutters must be accessible by ladder for cleaning. Inaccessible areas will be skipped. Service charges are not adjusted due to accessibility issues.
17) Concrete:
The appearance of concrete depends on a number of factors most linked to when the concrete was initially poured and cured. When concrete with dirt, mold, mildew, algae, stains, and other pollutants is cleaned, the concrete will then reveal any and all imperfections that the pollutants and stains have covered up. The customer understands that not all concrete will look the same even on the same driveway, patio, sidewalk, or concrete slab.
18) Concerns, missed areas, and damage:
Any issues relating to damage, missed areas, service, or your experience with Mansfield Services LLC must be brought to only the attention of a representative of Mansfield Services LLC. Any issues must be reported to a representative of Mansfield Services LLC within 72 hours of an exterior cleaning project’s completion, and within 24 hours of an interior home cleaning service.
