Lawn Street is not responsible for breakage due to normal wear and tear, deterioration cause by age, or damage caused by improper assembly, construction, or mounting of an item. Please inform us immediately if any items in your lawn require this type of attention.

BIO-HAZARDS

Human and animal urine and faeces, medical syringes, mucous, vomit and blood all fall into the categories of biological hazards and blood-borne pathogens. A biohazard is organic matter that poses danger to humans. For this reason, we ask our gardeners to avoid potential biological hazards and blood-borne pathogens beyond what is part of our cleaning checklist. We clean around them to the best of our ability and notify you of their presence. In any case where the gardener feels unsafe, we have the right to cancel the service.

HOARDING CONDITIONS

If the condition of your property goes over and beyond our normal cleaning environment that is covered in our lawn care packages, our team have the right to walk away or re-evaluate the rates in order to complete the job to client’s expectations. In the event where cleaning teams decide to refuse service, you will be charged a $50 booking fee due to incorrect description of job. This fee is in place to cover expenses they incur for lost travel time and fuel.

PARKING ACCESSIBILITY

This is usually only an issue in CBD areas where parking is a challenge. We do require a place to park close to your front door, so your lawn care service is uninterrupted. At any time where gardeners have no choice but to use paid parking, we will ask for your agreement prior and add the cost onto your final invoice. Otherwise, we have the right to cancel/reschedule service if no parking is available.

LATE CANCELLATIONS/RESCHEDULING

We want to make sure everyone’s appointment is serviced with the best team for the job. It takes us time to for us to allocate the right lawn care professional for you. That is why we ask for 24 hours’ notice for all cancellations or rescheduling. Cancellation or rescheduling 24 hours prior to the initial appointment will incur a $50 charge. Repeated cancellations or offense will cause a disruption in our service and may result in a cancellation of your service all together.

This includes easy access to the lawn without anything blocking the way of the lawn mowers or other machines to gives the professionals the ability to complete their job without interruptions. Any pets or minors should be monitored to ensure they are not interrupting the service. A $50 fee may apply if the gardener arrives and is unable to complete their job due to any kind of interruptions. This fee is in place to cover expenses the incur for lost travel time and fuel.
