Our Commitment to You

Carpet Cleaners Mayfair is committed to delivering high standards of cleaning and customer care across our service area. If something goes wrong, we want to know about it. We treat all complaints seriously, investigate them thoroughly and use the outcome to improve our services.

We will always aim to:

What This Procedure Covers

This procedure covers complaints relating to:

• The quality of carpet, rug, upholstery or other cleaning work carried out
• The conduct, attitude or behaviour of our cleaning operatives or office staff
• Adherence to agreed booking times, access arrangements or service instructions
• Invoices, charges and clarity of information provided about our services

This procedure is intended for customers who have used, or attempted to use, Carpet Cleaners Mayfair for professional cleaning services in our operating area.

Raising a Complaint Informally

We encourage you to raise any concerns as soon as possible so that they can be resolved quickly and informally where appropriate. In many cases, issues can be put right immediately or at the next convenient visit.

If you are dissatisfied with any aspect of our cleaning service, please contact our office and ask to speak with a supervisor or manager. Provide as much detail as you can, including the date of the clean, the address where the service was carried out, and a description of the issue.

We will aim to resolve informal complaints promptly, often within a few working days, through discussion, clarification, a return visit, or another reasonable solution.

Making a Formal Complaint

If you feel that your concern has not been resolved informally, or if the matter is more serious, you may make a formal complaint. To help us investigate effectively, please submit your complaint in writing, clearly stating that it is a formal complaint.

Include the following information where possible:

• Your full name and contact details
• The property address where the cleaning took place
• The date and approximate time of the service
• A clear description of what went wrong and how it has affected you
• Any steps already taken to resolve the issue and the outcome
• Any supporting information you consider relevant

How We Will Handle Your Complaint

Once we receive your formal complaint, we will follow these stages:

1. Acknowledgement: We will acknowledge receipt of your complaint within a reasonable time, confirming that it is being investigated.

2. Investigation: A senior member of our team who is not directly involved in the original issue will review your complaint. This may include speaking with the cleaning operatives, reviewing work notes, schedules and any photographs or other evidence available.

3. Clarification: If necessary, we may contact you to clarify details or request further information. This helps ensure we fully understand your concerns before reaching a conclusion.

4. Outcome: After completing our investigation, we will provide a written response outlining our findings, any actions we propose to take, and the reasons for our decision.

Timescales for Response

We aim to complete our investigation and provide a full response within a reasonable and practical timeframe. The length of time required may depend on the complexity of the complaint, the availability of staff involved and the need to inspect the property or work carried out.

If we are unable to provide a full response within our usual timescale, we will let you know and explain the reason for the delay, as well as when you can expect a further update.

Possible Outcomes and Remedies

Where our investigation shows that we are at fault, we will seek to put matters right as fairly and quickly as possible. Depending on the nature of the issue, this may include:

• Re-cleaning the affected areas where this is practical and appropriate
• Offering a partial or full refund where justified
• Providing a credit towards future cleaning services
• Taking internal action such as additional staff training or revised procedures

Where we do not uphold a complaint, we will explain the reasons for our decision clearly and respectfully.

Escalating Your Complaint

If you remain dissatisfied after receiving our formal response, you may request that your complaint is reviewed by a more senior manager or company representative. When you do so, please explain why you are unhappy with the initial outcome and what resolution you are seeking.

We will review the complaint, together with the handling and outcome of the first investigation, and provide a final written response. This will conclude our internal complaints procedure for that particular matter.

Your Responsibilities as a Customer

To help us resolve issues effectively, we ask that you:

• Report problems as soon as reasonably possible after the service
• Provide accurate and complete information about the concern
• Allow us reasonable access to the property if an inspection or re-clean is needed
• Treat our staff with courtesy and respect throughout the process

Using Feedback to Improve Our Service

Carpet Cleaners Mayfair values all feedback, including complaints, as an important way to improve the quality and reliability of our carpet and upholstery cleaning services. We regularly review complaints to identify trends, training needs and opportunities to enhance the customer experience across our service area.

By following this complaints procedure, we aim to resolve individual issues fairly while continually improving our standards for all customers.
