How can I change or reschedule an upcoming cleaning?

Life doesn't always stick to a calendar. Maybe you need your cleaning pushed a day later, want an extra hour for a deep clean before guests arrive, or realise the time slot you picked no longer works. Batmaid makes it possible to adjust an upcoming cleaning yourself, as long as you're outside the 48-hour window before it's due. Here's how it works.

How to edit your booking?

Log in to your account, go to “My cleanings” > “Upcoming”, click “Manage cleaning”. From there you can change the date, time, duration, or extras (such as windows, oven or fridge cleaning), as long as the cleaning is still more than 48 hours away. Keep in mind that changing a cleaning may result in a change of assigned Batmaid Cleaning Agent.

What is the 48-hour cutoff?

You can edit a booking - date, time, duration or extras - any time up until 48 hours before the scheduled cleaning, directly via My cleanings in your account. Once a cleaning is scheduled less than 48 hours away, booking changes can no longer be made online.

Inside that 48-hour window, you'll need to contact customer support directly, and standard cancellation fees may still apply to the original booking.

What if I request a change too late?

If you try to change a cleaning inside the 48-hour window, the change can't be processed online. At that point the cleaning is less than 48 hours away, so the cancellation policy applies as if you were cancelling. And because that's well inside the 7-day mark, the full cleaning cost is charged. If you still need to make a change, contact customer support directly; they'll help where they can, but the full charge may still apply.

By contrast, changes to the date, time, or duration made outside the 48-hour window are free of charge, as long as they're requested at least 48 hours in advance and subject to Batmaid Cleaning Agent availability.

What if no Batmaid Cleaning Agent is available for your requested slot?

"No Batmaid Cleaning Agent available" means that for the exact time, date, and duration you requested, there's currently no matching Batmaid Cleaning Agent on the platform.

If this happens, you can explore alternative options directly in the Manage cleaning section, adjusting the time, date, or duration to find an available match. If you're still unable to find a solution that works for you, Batmaid's customer support team can help search for an alternative.
