Cleaning and keeping the Alchemy Space secure and clean is part of your responsibilities. Cleaning and locking the space is a condition of hiring to use the Alchemy Space.

We would rather not apply a cleaning fee, but if the space is left untidy, or rubbish left in the room we will charge a cleaning fee.

We have you covered with the right equipment...

Cleaning equipment

There is a new Bagless Hoover Vacuum Clearer, mop and bucket that is stored in a curtained cupboard stored behind the studio door.


PLEASE take any rubbish with you and dispose of it responsibly in any of the street bins. There are replacement bin liner bags in the draws in the kitchen. Please do not leave rubbish in the bin in the Alchemy Space because it attracts cockroaches and ants.


Candle wax.
Candle wax is an occupational hazard in the Alchemy Space. If you spill wax on the vinyl floor you must use your fingernails or other soft-plastic implement to remove it. There are polishing cloths in the grey storage unit behind the door you can use to buff the floor. 


IMPORTANT: If you get wax on the carpet this will need to carefully removed by using a WARM iron. Do not use a HOT iron it will damage the carpet. You remove the wax by putting brown paper or newspaper down over the wax and applying the warm iron. The wax melts and is absorbed by the paper like a blotter. You keep ironing until no more wax can be absorbed into the paper.  


Picking up the Key

Step 1. You use the code Tim will give you to open the Key-safe.
Step 2. You close the safe and change the the code, ie, the observable numbers. This will prevent unwanted persons from seeing what the combination is. As an added deterrent please close the small hatch to conceal the combination-numbers.


Return the Key 
It is important to return the key to the Key-safe after you use so the next person can use it. Again, once the keys are in the safe, please change the observable numbers.


A shared space

It is important that we each be responsible to maintain a clean space. If you use the small waste paper bin in the space, please empty it when you leave. Please replace the bin liner with another bag and empty your rubbish either in the large kitchen bin or use one of the street bins.


All rubbish

PLEASE take away any rubbish with you. Do not leave this in the Alchemy Space. This is really important. If the room is left in an untidy or dirty state we will add an additional cleaning charge of $50 to have someone come in to clean. We actually state that a condition of use is for you to also clean the space after your use.


Damage
If you damage something please do report this to Tim so he can arrange to fix it. Depending on what the damage has affected will determine if there are any repair costs involved. 


IMPORTANT: You may be held responsible. By using the Alchemy Space you agree to being responsible for any damage or lose of property. If you see something is damaged you must report this to Tim prior to the start of your session, otherwise there is no way we can determine you were not responsible. Use either Facebook Messenger to Tim or SMS him on 0416339705.


Locking-up securely

When you finish using the Alchemy Space it is your responsibility to:

1. Turn off the ceiling fan.

2. Turn off all lights (except for the press button-lights that automatically turn themselves off in the kitchen and toilets).

3. Lock up the Alchemy Space by turning the inside clip to lock position and check to make it is locked closed.

4. Lock the street door. 

5. Return the key to street key-safe.

General FAQs about how we operate and can assist

A. There is some flexibility for casual therapists who may be seeing clients spread-out over the day. Eg You have a your first client for an hour at 10am and next one is not until 2pm. We will not charge you for the time you are not conducting your consult. So you would only be charged for two x 1-hour blocks, ie just $60.

A. We can add you to our shared Google calendar OR you can check it now in the section below the FAQs. If you need regular access for bookings we can add to our Google calendar. This works best if you have a Gmail account (free). You'll first need to supply us with your Gmail address. Once you have supplied your Gmail account (contact Tim to arrange access) you'll be able to times as you need them.


N.B. A strict cancellation policy will apply to all bookings. 


Access to the Google calendar will enable you schedule reoccurring bookings directly into the calendar. You can also ask Tim to do this. Contact him through Facebook Messenger, see him under Tim Ozpagan.

A. If you have to cancel a booking it is your responsibility to give adequate notice otherwise you will be charged. We require a minimum of 48 HOURS notice. Failing to do so will impact on your future use of the Alchemy Space. Contact Tim through Facebook Messenger as soon as possible see: Tim Ozpagan

A. We use Key-Safe found on the righthand-side of the front street door. You must be given a 4-digit access code by Tim. For security reasons this gets changed regularly. There are three keys. One for the top lock of the street door and a second deadlock. A third key gives you access to The Alchemy Space studio on the first floor.

Although the street address is 199 King Street Newtown, we are also mindful of letting people know from the start that the entrance is from the side in Egan Street.


To help, we and our neighbours the Kundalini Yoga and the Collective Healing Centre have large signs either side and on the front street door. There's also a signs on the upstairs studio doors.
