This was the first time I had someone clean my place, and after seeing the results I'm skeptical to ever hire anyone again.
Some issues:
1. Debbie said the night before she would call me when she left the job before mine, so I could meet her at my place and give me a 15-20 minute head's up. The day of she called me when she was outside my condo. Luckily I was nearby, but I had to rush home.
2. Debbie said she usually just brings a crew of 3 and charges by head and hour. The day of she brought 5 people instead to help her.
3. Even though there were more people to work, my 2b/2b condo did not look like it had an "upscale detail cleaning." Rather upon inspection with Debbie I pointed out random drawers and cabinets that were missed, including several other area. There was also residue/grime left behind my kitchen sink that she said would not come out, but I was able to remove 90% with a little scrubbing the next day. Debbie said they couldn't hit everything because of my budget and timeline, but what professionals can't clean an already pretty clean and completely empty 2b/2b under 2 hours with 6 people?
4. Another item I had prioritized with Debbie was having my empty fridge wiped down. It hadn't been touched at all.
5. One of the bathroom floors wasn't cleaned at all either, so Debbie went over a few places with a dry rag - not exactly the level of sanitation you'd expect from a professional cleaner.
Although Debbie was nice, the cleaning job was very poor. It was a waste of money since I ended up going over everything myself. read more
