Marlene and her awesome crew have been cleaning our house for the last 4 years. We try our best to keep things decent but with both of us working, kids in all sorts of activities, and now - helping with sick parents, we appreciate the help. Housekeeping help is better and more affordable than marriage counseling or therapy! We can always count on Marlene to do a thorough yet efficient cleaning job without moving things around too much (was a problem with other services in the past - we couldn't find things after they finished). She's also easy to get a hold of + communicate with; is reliable; and brings her own cleaning supplies. We have also asked her to help with a deep cleaning when we had house guests who were allergic to dogs (we have very "sheddy" dogs) and they delivered. I recommended Marlene to my parents and they're happy with her. If you're looking for a reasonably priced, trustworthy, well-run service, I think you'd be pleased with Marlene. One note though - she did tell me in the beginning that she does not do laundry. I guess some folks have asked for that help. read more
