Edna is just finishing our house. She cleaned the house like the expert she is, including the windows. I have a bad back and she even washed and dried our heavy bedspread! Honestly this is the best cleaning service I've ever had. I will definitely call Always Home Services again! The owner, Wanda, was very easy to reach to set up the appointment. I am extremely grateful and happy with the professionalism and attention to detail in every aspect of my requests. Thank you for your kindness and help!! read more

Outstanding service. Very organized and efficient owner. Very responsible and hardworking cleaning lady. I am happy with the outcome. She did deep cleaning. I will definitely use her for regular cleaning. Highly recommend this business read more

I called Always Home Services for a quote to clean one of my apartments after a tenant had moved out. Wanda was professional, kind and provided a quote promptly. Wanda assigned two of her team members to my unit and they arrived right on time, they were professional, courteous and efficient. They did a wonderful job!! Also, Wanda has great communication skills. We kept in touch throughout the entire process. I will definitely be using this service again and would highly recommend to anyone we know. Thank you for such great service! read more

it took me a while to find a great cleaning service with reliability, punctuality, and an awesome cleaner. I am extremely pleased with the service that I have been receiving and the customer service that I have received. I trust my cleaner to be in my home, and she is very respectful of my cat. Highly recommended. read more

Loved how sweet and quick these women were. My sister lost her husband yesterday and our family's coming into town for the funeral. Their house was nothing short of a wreck, having 3 young kids under the age of 5. Maria and her daughter were angels! So understanding and helpful! My sister was in tears seeing how spic and span her house was. 10/10 I recommend these women! Amazing! Thank you Maria! read more

Really loved Veronica and she did a great job and was so nice. She listened to all our requests and was really patient. Wanda also really helped with all our questions as well and was very prompt. Definitely recommend! read more

I appreciate Wanda and her team for their ability to communicate clearly, be flexible and get the job done efficiently. We have a large house that gets used a lot. Maria and Angelica make sure things that often get overlooked are taken care of and add flourishes that make the house look top notch. read more

I had an emergency and I am unable to do large chores myself! Thank you to Wanda for being prompt, reliable and courteous! Within 2 hours she had sent someone. The person she sent was AMAZING! Quick, smart, through,detailed and worth every penny! She got places clean that I and everybody else had forgotten. The tops of pictures, behind the toilet, under the appliances, etc. I am completely satisfied with their work and will have them back again! They are a jewel! read more

Great customer service! I was in a situation of needing a move out clean asap due to mis-scheduling of cleaners. I called the day before I needed to move. The owner, Wanda, was great in helping me! I would tell everyone about Wanda! Wanda obviously cares for her clients and it shows! I have read the only bad review this company has. If you look at the person who did the review, you can see by her posts she's an unhappy camper in life! Don't let this one review stop you from using this AWESOME COMPANY! read more

Maritza came over and did a deep clean of our house. It was perfect. She paid close attention even to the small details and I appreciate that very much. We will definitely request her services again. read more

We have a baby on the way and our house needed some serious work. Wanda was easy to communicate with and came out quickly to give us an estimate. She sent us Teresa to do our deep cleaning and she was amazing! I'm telling you that I've never met a harder working person. She's personable and extremely trustworthy. She put 10 hours of work into our home and I am so grateful. The house looks completely different. I would highly recommend her services! read more

Wanda, Maria & team are top-notch professionals. They arrived on time, were extremely detail oriented, and made excellent use of their time at our house. I would recommend them to anyone looking for cleaning service in the Monterey area. They are just fantastic, and we would absolutely hire them again! read more

I recently contacted Wanda from Always Home Services to schedule a deep cleaning of a house I recently purchased. I was able to get an appointment on a Sunday, which was really helpful since most other cleaners in the Monterey area do not work on Sundays. Wanda sent two wonderful house cleaners who were punctual and courteous. They spent about fours hours cleaning my house from top to bottom and did a great job. I would definitely recommend Always Home Services to anyone interested in having their house cleaned. Wanda and her crew are professional and thorough. I give them 5 stars! read more

New to this company and have used "always home services" for about a month now and we couldn't be happier. They are extremely polite and respectful and the house looks so clean and organized. We are a young couple that works a lot and do a lot to keep our house clean but having someone come by every other week to do the finer details was exactly what we were hoping for. Thank you to all team members for setting us up. read more

I tried this company for home cleaning. I set up an initial cleaning and planned to continue with a monthly service. I have a 2000 square foot home. I was told because it was my first time I would have to pay for a "deep clean". The first time deep cleaning price is higher per hour than the repeat customer price. I was fine with that as I was planning to become a regular monthly customer, but what I got was not a deep clean. I agreed to pay the cleaner for 8 hours of work. She came late and left early though. She didn't even touch my kitchen. She spent the majority of her "8 hours" upstairs. I am assuming she dusted and vacuumed because the shower barely looked touched. The woman who runs the business talked to me after the cleaner left and told me that other customers "pay the cleaners gas money to stay longer". Huh? Didn't I just pay you for an 8 hour deep clean? Once I got home and inspected the work, I sent pictures to the business owner of what I noticed was not done. The next day she sends me a quote for 3 more hours for the cleaner to come back and finish the job. So even though I paid for a deep clean, I needed to pay more to finish the job. I told her that I didn't get the "deep clean" I paid for and she insinuated I was trying to get something for nothing by saying, "do you want her to come from Watsonville and not be paid"? No that was not the case at all. I wanted to get what I paid for. From what I could tell, I did not get it. After a back and forth via text explaining my case, she offered for the cleaner to come back no charge. But I said no thanks. The damage had already been done. Between the cleaners late arrival and early departure, the lack luster job she did, the money I paid and the pressure to spend more money, I did not want to utilize this business anymore even if was going to be "free". I would not recommend this company. Pictures of my "deep clean" attached. read more

See all

Edna and Armando did an amazing job cleaning our rental for moving in. Kitchen, bathroom, rooms were spotless! They even cleaned off the BBQ, sauna and garage. Wanda also made sure everything was well coordinated. Great Santa Cruz service! read more

Wanda's cleaning crew is excellent and Wanda is incredibly responsive, working very hard to accommodate any need.

What a wonderful day to return to a beautifully clean home thanks to Always Home Services. Calling them was the best decision I've ever made! Virginia does a great job and identifies even the details that you may have overlooked. I highly recommend them! read more

I really do not like to write bad reviews but felt remiss if I didn't write one about my experience with Wanda. The review has taken more time to write than the "consultation" but I just want to save others from wasting their time. Also, I would note that this woman has this and one other rating in the last 30 days. Not a long time in business or has burned bridges and therefore is setting up a new shop? If you live in a mansion and are willing to write a blank check, it might be a match? She is a TERRIFIC snob and fits the definition of a "negger." After over 20 min of her negging me, my friend, my home, life etc., I abruptly ended the "consultation" by telling her it wasn't a match and guiding her to my front door. During the summer, our family lives between 2 homes. My daughter goes to an elite private school in Seaside so we live in Carmel during school and Bay Area/Silicon Valley because it is closer to hubby's wrk and kids friends. Our home 1350 sq ft in Carmel is admittedly a bit cluttered and in need of some TLC but in no means filthy or in serious disarray. I even hosted a classmate +parents playdate the day b4. I mention all this because of Wanda's constant negging left me defensive and demeaned. But, I guess that is the true intent of a negger is to criticize and demean a person so that you can manipulate them? Highlights of her negfest/"consultation" -When meeting my good friend that lives close by (upscale zip code) that was helping me organize my daughter's bedroom asked in a condescending tone "are you the nanny/babysitter? I have jobs and do placements." My friend does help me and I do pay her but FAR from being "the help." My friend was fairly offended by her and her statements and asked me to carry through with a bad review because of it. -My 8-year-old daughter asked if she was going to be helping by cleaning our home, she scoffed and told my daughter "OHHH NO!! I do not clean. I hire other people to do that!" As if she is too good to do any work herself and we would be lucky if she took our money. -Told me SEVERAL times that my home was not like her other clients in that it has "things everywhere." When I told her I understand that while my home has some tidying up to do, it is perfectly reasonable for one to have a blender on the kitchen counter next to a coffee maker. She made off like I was a candidate for the tv show Hoarders for lacking an "appliance garage" in the cabinets and or not completely bare countertops. - Asked me about my garden and yard and if I had a gardener. When I told her that I am currently looking for one, she then criticized the yard and told me I should clear all the plants that make up the green lush plant growth that offers privacy from the neighbors. Again, not everyone has an English type garden with manicured plants everywhere. Our yard is super low maintenance and drought tolerant. -Quoted OUTRAGEOUS prices. Told me I should expect to pay more than $2000 a month for gardening services, $50 per hour PER CLEANER and insisted I would need at least 2. Making it $100 an hour for 2 people to "deep clean" my home. Refused to give an estimate on how many hours she thought these $100 per hr cleaners would work, basically expecting me to write a blank check to her for "her services." "I recently had my team clean a house for over 20 hrs (so, more than 2k) and it was immaculate and VERY organized. Unlike your home, this house had nothing out of place." Again, criticizing my home and implying that if she took the job it would be very big of her to do so. -Ask me what kind of cars my husband and I drive. In an effort to try and figure out how much I am "worth." -When I told her we are renters (because we did not know if the school for my daughter was going to work out, we decided to rent for a year to figure out exactly where we would want to buy), told me that she feared that our landlords might not renew our lease based on the home being so "cluttered and disorganized." -When I told her I am a Master Chef and Food Network champ, she asked me for my card so she could refer jobs to me. Uhhhh?!? I dissolved my successful catering company for 10+yrs to be a stay home mom to my 7 and 8 yr old kiddos. If and when I go back to cooking, I highly doubt I would need her to find clients. Beyond rude. Like I said, after she told me that it was going to take 1000s of $$$$ to make my home come close to HER standards, I was sick of the negging nonsense and saw her to the door. With decades of entrepreneurial experience, I know what is reasonable or not to pay. She and her rates were outrageous. She should know that particularly in NorCal, people do not always show their wealth. I do not tell people what my financial portfolio is unless they are my accountant, banker, or financial planner. Definitely not a cleaning company. I also do not tell people where my husband works because it is a company that has a rep for "rich techies." read more

Wanda was so quick to contact me after I requested a quote and we were on the schedule within the week. Veronica came and did a deep cleaning and did such a fantastic job. I am so relieved and I look forward to having AHS out weekly. Thank you! read more

Wanda (owner) was extremely fast to respond when I requested a quote and had one of her employees (Paula) to my home within a week to clean! It looked so great and everything was so clean when she was done. Wanda sent a Venmo request for what I owed and it made paying so easy! Definitely worth the price. Highly recommend. read more

I needed a last minute deep cleaning on my new apartment's bathrooms and kitchen, that was absolutely left in a terrible condition. I called Always Home and was greeted with wonderful and speedy service. I was able to get an appointment same day and the service didn't break the bank. Very happy with the outcome. read more

My boyfriend and I had a move out cleaning done by Always Home Services for our 2 bedroom, 1 bath rental we lived in for about 18 months. Very professional business owner, came to do estimate - Wanda was punctual and thoroughly explained what would be cleaned and how long it would take. The day of the cleaning, my boyfriend let the cleaners(2) in with their supplies and did a terrific job in 4 hours I believe. I received my full security deposit back upon my move out inspection with the landlord. I would use this service again even to do a regular cleaning before or after a family and friends get together like hosting an Easter meal/ something similar. read more

Always Home Services has been fantastic! Wanda (owner) is attentive and professional - any time I've had to make changes or call for any reason she gets right back to me.

I highly recommend Always Home Services - they are reliable, reasonable, and thorough. read more

When Wanda responded to my request for help cleaning my house after a move out I felt I was in good hands. She was helpful and professional. A young woman, Veronica, came to do the job. I just highlighted the things I wanted paid special attention and she dug in and got it done! I left her to do the job and when I saw the house after she was done it sparkled! Very happy with how everything was handled and how Veronica did a super great job for me! read more

I have been using always home services for the last year and a half during my time in Monterey. It was recommended to me by my neighbor and I am so thankful he told me about them. Wanda who was in charge of scheduling the cleaners was very prompt, responsive, and would follow up with me monthly for my cleanings. If there was a scheduling issue, she would work to accommodate me. Celina was responsible for cleaning my house monthly. And she was absolutely wonderful! I would look forward to my monthly cleanings. 10 out of 10 recommend this company. read more

We called Wanda when we purchased a second home in Carmel Valley Ranch. The house needed a detailed cleaning. The prior owner had dogs and our family has allergies. Wanda sent a crew over that specialized in this type of work. We were simply astonished when we arrived at the home. Everything was spotless, they went above and beyond. I would highly recommend Always Home Services. I'd like to mention Selena and Anthony, they were wonderful, made our house seem brand new!! read more

We had a last minute cancellation with another house cleaning service for a move out, so we decided to call Always Home Services. We had a premium experience with both the cleaning service and management. Wanda was very communicative, resourceful and was able to recommend other house services (window cleaning, gardening...etc). She was also able to accommodate our quick request and schedule the day of. We will be using her for any of our future needs. read more

We were pleased at the immediate response when we requested a quote for house cleaning services. Wanda (owner) responded promptly and scheduled a walk-through at our residence. During the walk through, she spent time to go through the house room by room to ensure that the cleaning would be customized to our needs. She sent her two best cleaners and at the end of the day Wanda came back to check up on what they had done. We like that Wanda was willing to work with us on a cleaning plan that fit our needs. Wanda followed through on asking us if we were happy with the services. Would definitely recommend Wanda and her team! read more

This company is legit! Ms Rosibel did a wonderful job. It feels good to come home to a clean house!
