1. Hospitality services covered
Perfect Living may support hotels, serviced apartments, short-stay operators, Airbnb hosts, aparthotels, guest accommodation providers and hospitality property managers with cleaning, maintenance, handyman tasks, plumbing, decorating, waste, gardening, snagging, emergency response and readiness work. These terms apply where the property is used for paying guests or commercial accommodation. Hospitality work often has fixed windows between checkout and check-in, limited access, guest privacy requirements and reputational pressure. The client must provide accurate timing, room numbers, access instructions, site contacts, guest status, parking, loading and escalation routes.
2. Guest impact and access
The client must tell us whether guests are present, expected, asleep, checking in, checking out or likely to be affected. Workers should not be asked to enter occupied rooms without proper authority and safe arrangements. Quiet hours, brand standards, staff-only areas, key handling, lost property, guest belongings, safeguarding and building rules must be communicated before attendance. If access is delayed by reception, housekeeping, security, concierge, missing keys, guest refusal or room status mismatch, waiting time or cancellation charges may apply. Perfect Living is not responsible for guest disruption caused by inaccurate or late information.
3. Turnover, presentation and standards
Hospitality clients should provide the exact standard expected: domestic clean, hotel presentation, deep clean, checkout clean, linen handling, appliance clean, stain removal, small repair, maintenance attendance or emergency risk reduction. A fast turnover is not the same as a full deep clean. Permanent stains, worn furnishings, damaged silicone, mould, odours, pest concerns, broken fixtures, blocked drains and old decoration may require separate work. Where time is limited, we may prioritise guest-critical tasks and report remaining issues. Photos and notes may be used to confirm completion, highlight defects and protect both the client and Perfect Living.
4. Emergency and guest-critical work
Urgent plumbing, electrical routing, leaks, lock-related handyman work, broken fixtures, waste issues, heating, water and presentation problems may be treated as priority work where available. Emergency attendance aims to reduce immediate risk and support operation, but it does not guarantee final repair during the first visit. Parts, specialist contractors, return visits or access to plant rooms may be required. We may decline work that is unsafe, regulated, outside competence or likely to create greater guest risk. The client must identify a decision-maker who can approve variations quickly.
5. Charges, cancellations and business loss
Hospitality bookings may be subject to stricter cancellation, no-access and waiting time charges because the work is often routed around guest windows. Parking, congestion charge, ULEZ, loading, out-of-hours attendance, urgent routing, extra staff and materials may be charged. Unless expressly agreed in writing, Perfect Living is not liable for lost bookings, refunds to guests, bad reviews, platform penalties, relocation costs, staff time, management fees, lost revenue or reputational damage. Our liability is limited to the direct service supplied and the remedies available under the agreed terms.
6. Relationship with hotel staff and managers
Perfect Living works alongside hotel teams, housekeeping, reception, maintenance teams, owners and property managers. We do not replace the hotel's duty to manage guests, building safety, fire safety, staff supervision, brand standards or statutory compliance. If hotel staff ask for extra work on site, we may require written approval from the authorised client contact. Where multiple teams work in the same room or property, clear records are important. We may refuse future hospitality work where access is chaotic, payment is delayed, staff are abusive or expectations are commercially unrealistic.
Send the booking reference, property address and the issue in writing.
Written communication gives both sides a clear record of the request, the agreed scope and any evidence needed for review.
