Cleaning Contractor for a Client of the Service Provider .
6 . I am responsible for ensuring the quality of my work and I undertake to immediately and
properly rectify, at my own expense, any substandard work for which I am paid. If I do not do so

the services myself. I will also ensure that the person performing the services agrees to be bound
by these All About Home Cleaning Terms and Conditions of Registration and I indemnify the

or by the person performing the services.

information.

cards or remotes to any other person or have additional copies of those keys, access cards or
remotes made or mark or label them in any manner that would permit the Client or their
premises to be identified if the keys, access cards or remotes are lost by me. Any security code
that I may be given to access Client 's premises is to be kept by me with absolute confidentiality
and I must not provide or disclose that security code to any other person.

the security code.
