Methods & Materials
Purer Environment. Healthier Home.
At Karma Diva, we only use products and ingredients that are environmentally safe and effective. We carefully choose products that are free of harsh chemicals, are biodegradable, and toxin-free, giving peace of mind for you, your family, your pets, and our cleaning technicians.
Green cleaning is also about a thorough clean that improves your indoor air quality to protect the health and safety of our clients while minimizing the environmental impact.
Our Materials, Maintenance & Communication Fee (Materials Fee for brevity) covers so much more than just the refillable supplies in our kit.
This charge helps to offset the wear and tear on our equipment and the communication with our team members around your services so we can keep your notes up to date.
Even when we’re not in your home, we are often still working for you in the background communicating updates to the notes and confirming appointments. A portion of this fee helps to offset communication bonuses with our team so we can keep your invoices accurate.
The Natural Products and Ingredients we use:
-
Made with plant-based surfactants (coconut) and natural fir needle and spruce essential oils (no cheap, harsh pine stump oil), without any synthetic dyes or fragrances. Perfect for general household cleaning (dishes, floors, laundry, etc.), it cleans and rinses with exceptional power, yet it is mild and gentle on the skin. Sal Suds Liquid Cleaner is equally effective in hard or soft water, rinsing freely, hot or cold.

Please note that our cleaning professionals will arrive with freshly cleaned microfiber cloths, the items listed above, a small bucket, a vacuum, and a squeegee mop. We can typically make it inside in one trip, and prefer to be able to park within close proximity to the door we’ll need to enter.
To reduce the risk of Cross-Contamination between homes:
To prevent cross-contamination, we do not use scrubbers or sponges that have been previously used in other homes. This includes toilet brushes, grout brushes, sponges, erasers, or any other type of item that can collect debris from one place and transport it elsewhere.
We ask that our clients supply any bristled cleaning items or sponges that they’d like us to use to tackle harder-to-clean areas.
*We especially ask that our clients keep one bristled toilet wand in each bathroom so we are not asked to carry these items throughout the home.
Frequently Asked Questions
At Karma Diva Green Cleaning, we want to make it easy for you to understand our services and policies. Below are answers to some of our most common questions.
How to get started?
Fill out our contact form to express your interest in our services.
From there, we’ll answer any remaining questions and help you schedule your initial consultation—either in person (recommended) or virtually.
A $50 booking deposit is required to reserve your consultation or first service:
For in-person consultations, the deposit is collected when booking
For virtual consultations, the deposit is collected at the end of your Zoom call if you choose to move forward
This deposit is applied toward your first cleaning.
What does it cost?
Pricing varies based on:
Home size
Service level
Condition and specific needs
A typical cleaning averages around $225 (including tax), but final pricing is determined using our Service Partnership Agreement.
How long does a cleaning take?
First-time services typically take longer because they are part of the Initial Reset Service Phase, where we establish your home’s standard. These visits often range from 3–5 hours with a team of 2, depending on the scope.
For Routine Maintenance, most homes take approximately 2 hours with a team of two professionals (3-4 total labor hours).
How often do you come to clean?
Most residential clients choose biweekly service, while business clients often prefer weekly service.
We also offer custom scheduling based on your needs.
How do you handle home access?
For security and consistency, we recommend using a lockbox with a code rather than providing physical keys.
I have a special situation, can you help?
We do our best to accommodate unique requests through our Tasking Services.
You can submit a request through our intake form or email us to discuss your needs.
We also offer pet care services for recurring clients when appropriate.

Is There Anything Karma Diva Doesn't Do?
We focus on professional cleaning, but there are certain tasks we do not perform. Be sure to review our Quality Assurance and Tasking page for full details.
We prefer not to accept keys for client properties. Instead, we recommend using a lockbox and providing us with a code for secure home access. This method ensures a safe and controlled entry process while prioritizing your security.
We do not provide:
Post-Construction, Biohazard, or Infestation Cleanup
Childcare or nanny services
Caretaker duties
Our mission is to clean your home efficiently so you can focus on everything else in your life.

“The Karma Divas are professional, friendly, always prompt, efficient and thorough. They will work in whatever capacity you specify: for me personally, I want cleaning, not straightening or a mint on my pillow, and that is specifically what they provide me. I am very happy and anticipate remaining their customer for a long time.”
— Annette B.
"I have had the team at Karma Diva helping me out for a few years now, and they have been excellent. I would highly recommend them - in particular they've done some cool things with electronic scheduling which are great since I don't have time to answer voicemail, they have multiple methods of billing - including billing in advance so you don't have to worry about it, not to mention that they do a great job on the cleaning!"
