TERMS

Welcome to KeyClean Torrevieja

Our aim with these terms is not to disclaim responsibility, but to create security and predictability for both parties. Our customers should always know what to expect from us and feel confident that we take full responsibility for the services we provide.


KeyClean reserves the right to adjust prices and to update or add information to our general terms and conditions. Such changes will not affect already agreed fixed prices  (e.g., for Keyholding or Property Supervision packages) during your current contract period.


Thank you for taking the time to read through our terms!


If you have any questions or concerns, you are always welcome to contact us.

We are here to help!


How our services work


Contract period


Base packages:

Our service concept offers three basic packages for you to choose from. You can read more about these here.


Contract length:

The agreement is valid for 6 or 12 months, depending on the package you have selected, starting from the agreed commencement date. Before the agreement expires, we will contact you to ask if you would like to renew your agreement.


Early termination:

If the agreement is terminated early, the remaining amount for the ongoing period will be charged. We always make an individual assessment and strive to find solutions that work for all parties involved.

If you notice something is incorrect on your invoice, or you do not approve it, please contact us before your payment term expires (20 days, see above).



Late payment


What applies:

To ensure we can continue providing smooth and reliable service, we ask that invoices are paid on time. If an invoice is not paid by the due date, KeyClean reserves the right to temporarily pause upcoming services until payment has been received.


If payment is missed:

For minor delays, we always send a friendly reminder. If payment is still not received after reminders, reminder fees may apply, and we may need to review the arrangement of the service.

          Visit at a specific time:

          If you need a visit at a specific time that isn't part of our regular schedule (e.g. turning on the heating before the season), this can be booked as an additional service.


          We do our best to accommodate requests, but may be fully booked at times.

          If a job can't be fitted into our overall schedule, we reserve the right to decline it or bill it separately.

          Rescheduling:

          Rescheduling may be approved in certain cases, provided it can be accommodated within our schedule.


          If approved, the visit can normally be moved 1–2 weeks earlier or laterthan the original booking.

          • Current pricing can be found under Additional Services.
          • Scheduling always follows our booking terms, to ensure the service can be carried out as effectively as possible.

              Practical information


              Key Management


              Pricing:

              KeyClean charges per service performed, such as opening and closing for contractors, as well as key handover and collection.


              Guests:

              We do not hand over keys to guests.


              When work is completed:

              If a contractor is working at your property, please let us know once the work is finished, so we can plan and schedule key collection efficiently.


              Waiting time:

              For scheduled contractor visits, up to one hour of waiting time is included at no extra charge.


              • If the contractor arrives within this hour, no additional charge applies.
              • If the contractor does not arrive within the hour, we only charge for the time we have actually waited.
              • If the assignment requires us to stay with the contractor, this is billed per hour started.


              Pricing details:

              Full cost information is available on our website under Additional Services.


              Our scheduling always follows our booking terms, to ensure the service can be carried out as effectively as possible.


              Billing & Access


              We charge for our time:

              Once you give us an assignment, billing begins as soon as the work starts. Current rates can be found on our website under Additional Services.


              Access required for smooth service:

              In order to carry out our services efficiently and flexibly, we need access to:


              • Keys
              • Any alarm fob
              • Gate code or access fob for the area where the property is located
              • Mailbox key, if you'd like us to collect the post
              • Water shut-off key, if needed – assessed on a case-by-case basis


              Why this matters:

              This allows us to handle sudden rescheduling during the day without unnecessary obstacles.


              With the right access, we can work smoothly and ensure a reliable, sustainable service – both for you as a customer and for us.



                  Cleaning & Laundry


                  Cleaning


                  What's included:

                  What's included in standard cleaning is described under the "Cleaning" section in Additional Services.


                  If a customer simply writes "cleaning requested":

                  This is interpreted as a booking for regular cleaning.


                  Services beyond standard cleaning:

                  Billed as a general property service, per hour started. If the job requires at least two people on site, both are billed at the applicable hourly rate.


                  Bed making:

                  Can only be booked together with a scheduled regular clean – not as a stand alone service.


                  Deep cleaning:

                  Quoted separately. Please contact us for a price.


                  Laundry:

                  Regular cleaning includes laundry of up to 2 washing machine loads, max 12 kgcombined per cleaning visit. See "Laundry of bedding and towels" below for details.


                  Outdoor cleaning(window cleaning, terrace or balcony cleaning, etc.):

                  We aim to schedule this work as close to your arrival as possible for the best result. Weather, however, is beyond our control – we can't guarantee the result if, for example, calima (dust haze), strong wind, or other bad weather occurs after cleaning has been completed, and we are not responsible for weather-related effects on completed work.


                  Window cleaning in summer (from summer 2027):


                  During July and September, we do not offer window cleaning services.


                  The high summer temperatures make it difficult to maintain the high level of quality we strive to deliver, while also making the work considerably more demanding.


                  An exception is outdoor glass railings, which we are still able to clean during the summer months.


                  If you need window cleaning during the summer months, we are happy to help you find another window cleaning company. For larger window cleaning jobs, we will refer you to a window cleaning company that can assist you.


                  Hourly billing:

                  Applies to outdoor services, move-out cleaning and deep cleaning. A minimum charge of €60 applies.


                  For window cleaning, please request a quote.


                  For regular cleaning (everyday/household cleaning), a fixed price applies instead.


                  Waste disposal:

                  In the Valencia/Murcia region, fines can be issued for putting out rubbish at the wrong times. If KeyClean were to receive such a fine while managing your property, this cost will be passed on to you.


                  We therefore ask that you always follow local waste disposal rules.

                  Parkering

                  • If free parking is not available, a parking fee may apply. This is currently mainly relevant in Torrevieja city centre during the high season and public holidays.



                  Priority & booking:

                  Cleaning is an additional Service and is carried out subject to available capacity – property watch and emergency jobs always take priority. We reserve the right to decline or cancel booked cleaning slots if our operational schedule requires it.


                  We therefore recommend booking cleaning with a window of at least one week, meaning the cleaning can be carried out on any day within the agreed period. 


                  Our scheduling always follows our booking terms, to ensure the service can be carried out as effectively as possible.



                  Laundry of Bedding & Towels


                  Included in regular cleaning:

                  Laundry of up to 2 machine loads, max 12 kg combined. Laundry beyond this (more loads or higher total weight) is billed according to our current price list.


                  Cannot be booked separately

                  – only together with a scheduled regular clean.


                  What counts as bedding:

                  Sheets, duvet covers, and pillowcases.


                  Not counted as bedding (and therefore not included):

                  bedspreads, throws, mattress protectors, blankets, decorative cushions, etc. We do not offer ironing.


                  Preparation before cleaning:

                  • The customer is responsible for stripping the beds before cleaning.
                  • Wet towels can be left hanging to dry.
                  • The customer is responsible for any pre-treatment of stains on laundry to be washed.
                  • Bedding and towels should be placed in piles or in a basket by the washing machine if they are to be washed. If laundry is not placed correctly, we will assume it is not meant to be washed.


                  If a working washing machine is unavailable:

                  A fee of €15/machine applies, starting from the first machine.


                  Liability:

                  We are not liable for laundry that goes missing, unless it can be established that the loss was due to a clear error on our part.



                  Construction Cleaning


                      When booking, please clearly state what you'd like us to do.


                      • Minimum charge: 2 hours . This always applies, regardless of whether the actual work takes less time.
                      • Please note: We provide basic post-construction cleaning only and do not remove stubborn construction residues such as plaster, grout, cement haze, paint splatters, silicone, or adhesive residues.


                      • Dust: Small amounts of dust may resettle after cleaning. Air purification and dust extraction are normally used during the construction project itself – we are not responsible for dust that reappears after cleaning.


                      • Business customers: Prices exclude IVA (VAT).
                      • Private customers: Prices include IVA (VAT)


                       

                      Guarantee & Safety


                      Guarantee


                      What's covered:

                      We always strive to deliver a thorough and professional result based on what you have ordered. If you notice, for example, deficiencies in the cleaning, please contact us.


                      We will then assess the issue and, if it falls within our responsibility, correct that specific error at no additional cost.


                      The guarantee only covers the part of the work that was not performed correctly—not the entire cleaning.


                      Outdoor cleaning:

                      For outdoor cleaning, such as window washing or terrace and balcony cleaning, we schedule the work as close to your arrival as possible. However, weather conditions are beyond our control, and we cannot provide any guarantee regarding the weather. We are not responsible if, for example, calima (dust haze), strong winds, or other adverse weather affects the result after cleaning has been completed.


                      Who the guarantee applies to:

                      The guarantee applies only to you as the customer (the contracting party). Guests cannot invoke the guarantee, since guests may have different expectations than what was actually ordered, which would make a fair assessment on our part difficult.


                      Insurance


                      Your responsibility:

                      You are responsible for keeping your property insured.


                      Our coverage:

                      KeyClean maintains liability insurance for work carried out in your home.


                      Ongoing safety review:

                      We continuously review our safety procedures to protect our customers' properties. This includes, among other measures, never labeling keys in a way that would allow an unauthorized person to link them to a specific address.


                      If a company – such as an insurance provider or construction firm – informs us that they will be visiting your property, we coordinate with you first, in case you have not already notified us.



                      Safety


                        What we don't do:

                        KeyClean does not undertake tasks that could compromise personal safety or health. We are, however, happy to help direct you to the appropriate authority or service instead. Examples of such tasks include:


                        • Replacement, installation, or handling of gas
                        • Heavy lifting, such as appliances or large bookshelves
                        • Climbing on the outside of the building façade
                        • Mediation of personal conflicts between customers and neighbors



                        Damages & Liability


                        Our responsibility:

                        We always treat your property with great care and respect. If damage occurs as a result of our work, KeyClean is primarily responsible for remedying the damage through repair, and secondarily through financial compensation equivalent to the value of the damage.


                        Your responsibility:

                        As a customer, you are responsible for informing us of any special conditions in the property that we need to take into account during our visit.


                        This may include sensitive materials or surfaces that require specific cleaning products, as well as furnishings or equipment that are damaged, worn, or of lower quality, such as blinds or shutters that do not function properly.



                            Home Services


                            Home Deliveries


                            What we can help with:

                            If you would like to have goods delivered to your home, we can assist by meeting the delivery driver and receiving the delivery.


                            Please check with us before placing your order, so we can make sure that we are available to receive it.


                            This way, you can avoid a situation where your order arrives when no one is available to receive it or help open and bring in the delivery.


                            Peak season:

                            Between May and September, as well as during holidays, this service can be difficult to schedule due to high demand.


                            What we need from you:


                            • Confirmation with us in advance
                            • The supplier's details
                            • The delivery/tracking number
                            • The carrier's contact information
                            • A scheduled carry-in of items
                            • Instructions on where the goods should be placed


                            Delivery address:

                            We do not accept orders sent directly to our company, as we primarily work out in the field and are unable to receive deliveries. If a home delivery is requested, it will be arranged to be delivered directly to you.



                            Waste Management 


                            What we don't handle ourselves:

                            Unfortunately, KeyClean is unable to handle the removal of trash, garden waste, broken furniture, or similar items ourselves.


                            What we can help with instead:

                            We can assist you in arranging removal by referring you to suitable companies, and where possible, help with access during delivery or collection.


                            Billing:

                            Once you assign us this task, billing begins per hour, from the start of the assignment. Current hourly rates can be found on our website under Additional Services. (This also includes contacting various companies to obtain quotes for waste removal.)


                            Our scheduling always follows our booking terms, to ensure the service can be carried out as effectively as possible.



                            Holiday Periods 



                            Availability

                            Normal policy:

                            Services are normally not performed outside our regular business hours or during planned closures.


                            If work is carried out anyway:

                            In exceptional cases where work is carried out during these periods, a minimum double rate applies, in accordance with our terms and conditions. You will always be informed in advance if this applies.


                            Our recommendation:

                            We recommend planning any assignments in advance, so that suitable arrangements can be made without additional costs.



                            Public Holidays


                            We are closed on the following public holidays, in addition to our regular hours outside 08:00–19:00 on weekdays:


                            • Easter holidays (26–29 March 2027)
                            • Swedish Midsummer's Eve (25 June 2027)
                            • 24–26 December 2026
                            • New Year's Eve (31 December) and New Year's Day (1 January)



                            Vacation


                            Why we close:

                            We also need time for rest and recovery in order to maintain a high standard of service. 


                            During vacation periods, we do not accept new assignments, but we remain available for emergency matters.


                            Upcoming vacation closures 2026/2027:

                            • October 1–7, 2026
                            • December 24, 2026 – January 3, 2027



                            Limits of Service


                            Force Majeure


                            What counts as Force Majeure:

                            If an event occurs that is beyond KeyClean's control – such as fire, natural disaster, or any other unforeseen circumstance that prevents us from fulfilling our obligations – this shall be considered a release from the agreement for the duration of the event.


                            Communication during such events:

                            Communication may also be limited during a Force Majeure event. We will inform our customers as soon as possible through public channels, such as Instagram or Facebook.


                            Illness:

                            Illness is normally not considered Force Majeure. However, if it affects scheduled services, we will always notify affected customers as soon as possible.



                            Micromanagement


                            What we don't do:

                            We do not stay to supervise major work carried out by contractors (e.g., after a water leak or during renovations). As a rule, we do not interfere with the work being done – both out of respect for the builders, and to avoid giving advice we are not qualified to give.


                            Insurance visits:

                            The same applies to insurance companies visiting to gather information about water damage or other claims.


                            Our role:

                            Our role is to provide practical on-site assistance – not to take responsibility for or direct the work of contractors or insurance representatives, nor to make decisions on their behalf.


                            We will of course follow up if we notice something wrong or something that should be reported, but we cannot maintain ongoing communication about every step of the process, as this is not sustainable for us in terms of time.



                            Guidance - matters outside our scope of services


                            Examples of requests we can't assist with:

                            We sometimes receive requests for help with matters outside our scope of services, such as contacting authorities, attending homeowners' association (community) meetings, paying private invoices, or collecting mail parcels, etc.


                            What this means for you:

                            Unfortunately, we do not provide assistance with these types of tasks. For such matters, you are responsible for arranging an authorized representative or another suitable solution.





                            Renting out


                            If you are a current customer planning to rent out your property, please note the following:


                            Key handover:

                            We do not assist with handing over keys to guests.


                            If we're not informed:

                            If you choose to rent out your property without informing us, please read the information under "Booking Terms" and "Guarantee & Safety" carefully to understand what applies.


                            Renting or Lending to Family or Friends

                            We understand that you may want to rent out or lend your home to family or friends, and we're happy to help where possible. To ensure everything runs smoothly for everyone involved, we just need to make sure the right service is booked.


                            Invoicing:

                            We only invoice our own customers. This means invoices from us cannot be issued to third parties, such as family members, friends, or guests – even if they are the ones staying at the property.


                            If the Arrangement Doesn't Work

                            If something causes our work not to function as it should, we will always contact you so we can find a good solution together. If, despite dialogue, we're unable to find a solution, we may need to review how we continue our collaboration.
