A first time visit, if you have dirt that has been sitting for a long period of time, will usually require more time and more gnome power to get your space ready for ongoing gnome visits. Our first visit to a space is typically longer in duration than recurring visits and are estimated as a range of time. This allows for a thorough clean before we begin shorter ongoing visits. We'll get to as much as we can and if we finish early we will simply leave. Either way, you'll only be invoiced for the time spent in your space.

Setting up your fist visit is easy! Just fill out our contact form so we can learn more about your space and your needs and begin our communication and coordination of your gnome visit. After this, we will promptly reach out back to you to schedule a consultation, give you an estimate and also schedule your first visit. If for any reason you are crunched for time and don't have time for a consultation, we can still provide an estimate and schedule your visit using the information you provided in our contact form.

Yes! Our goal at Tidy Gnomes is to bring ease and happiness to your life. If for any reason we ever happen to miss anything or if you are unhappy with our visit, please, let us know and we will gladly come back and fix it free of charge.
