We have a large house and I needed more than one person to clean or we'd have people in our home for several hours. I decided to try a cleaning service company. They charged $200 more than we were paying for a "deep clean" and I expected more than the normal cleaning I'd been getting from one person. The one reason I hired a service was so at least two people would be there. Only one showed up the second time. They didn't vacuum in corners or under furniture. There were streaks all over our quartz counters and I could see cobwebs under furniture and dirt in every easily accessible corner. They DID NOT clean in any corners, I wiped the floors that had been "cleaned" and they were filthy. They couldn't be bothered to vacuum the rug by my kitchen sink! There were dead bugs that weren't vacuumed up and when they dusted, they had valuable items sitting on the edges of cabinets. I also have things with a lot of sentimental value and they had been placed so that if anyone had bumped the cabinets, these items that cannot be replaced would have easily broken. The counters looked like they'd come in and just shoved everything aside to clean and hadn't put anything back. I went to wash my hands and the soap had been moved to the opposite side of the sink. They weren't at all careful with anything! We had the vinyl flooring that looks like wood installed in our basement and they USED VINEGAR!! They ruined brand new floors. I've included pictures of the floors and just some of the dirt they were too lazy to clean.
I know the person wasn't there for as long as they claimed to be there because they entered through my garage and I get a notification when the door is opened and closed. It takes one person at least 4 hours to clean my house. This person was gone in less than two hours. They left a filthy house and when I left messages for the owner, I didn't hear back for a week. She was supposedly sick but she told me she and her husband ran this company. I should have heard back from one of them. We all get sick but that doesn't mean we can just blow off our jobs. A phone call shouldn't be too terribly taxing, especially since they work out of their house!
Their work ethic is very poor and they charge way too much. If their work matched their price, I'd have happily paid them to clean. I won't stand for laziness and I'm certainly not going to pay for it. I'd never recommend that anyone use them. For the minimal amount done, I could have quickly cleaned. I've been having this house cleaned for over 20 years and I've never had a job done so poorly. I recommend asking people for recommendations via social media. Friends can write 4 and 5 star reviews but neighbors won't recommend companies like this one. Don't use this company! A 10 year old would have done a better job. The workers for this company do the bare minimum and don't even know what products to use on surfaces. The only thing they know how to do is get in and out of houses as quickly as possible and get your money. read more
