To fully secure and finalize your appointment, payment must be completed immediately via our secure Stripe checkout links. Unpaid bookings will be automatically canceled after 15 minutes to release the slot.
– Appointment times are approximate and may vary due to traffic or previous jobs.

If the property is located within the London Congestion Charge Zone, ULEZ, or other restricted zones, these standard fees will be added to the final service price.

– Rescheduling is subject to availability.

5. Customer Responsibilities
The customer agrees to:
