Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Is Tick off the List a home care/support service?

Q. Are you a Certified Professional Home Organizer?
A. No, but I am known for being very resourceful, hardworking, and passionate about helping you find more time! I warmly encourage people to partner with a household organizer service that fits their needs.

Q. Do you provide housekeeping services for vacation rental or commercial properties?  
A. No.  The level of commitment to deliver housekeeping services to a vacation rental or commercial property would be a scheduling challenge at best so I’m solely focusing services to residential homes where I can remain flexible with my time.  **One time, intermittent, and/or a regular housekeeping service can be accommodated but a little flexibility in the schedule is always appreciated!  For a quote on residential housekeeping, contact Niki.

Q. What is your safety plan?
A. Great question!  Firstly, Tick off the List maintains Personal Optional Protection Insurance with WorkSafe BC so I’m covered in the event of a work-related injury on a job site.  The safety of my clients and my family is paramount. A relationship with my clients is based on mutual trust where we respect that both parties are healthy and we are working in a safe space. If either party feels under the weather then we agree to disclose that and set a new timeline to complete the service or project.

Before starting any household project, (for example) we will walk through the work space together to identify any safety hazards to be aware of. We will use the right tools for the job so as in the case of reorganizing a kitchen space, I ask the client to establish spaces and storage items for organization. This is key to the success of a safely delivered end result! We will also set a time for a break. Contact Niki to discuss.

Q. Do you have a business license? Are you insured?
A. Yes! Tick off the List is registered with the Province and is licensed to operate a business in Gibsons, BC and the Sunshine Coast Regional District.  This business also maintains Personal Optional Protection Insurance with WorkSafe BC.  A copy of my business license or a WorkSafe BC clearance letter is available upon request.
