Unfortunately, getting older has some drawbacks. Some health issues were one of mine, somewhat…read morelimiting what I could and couldn't do. The " couldn't do" still needed to be done regardless Enter A la maid. From the first deep cleaning day,which in and of itself was amazing The team came in and literally cleaned every square inch,top to bottom of my apartment. I guess it's been about a year, maybe longer. They arrive when they are scheduled for and get right to work. No gibber jabber amongst themselves, no playing on cell phones,just work until the jobs complete. I'm not a very trusting person by nature, everyone is suspect in my eyes. That being said although I'm normally here for the cleaning I have absolutely no problems having them here if I'm not. As for the office staff and owner? Amanda and Nicole are probably two of the most kind, compassionate people I've had the privilege to know. They obviously know how to efficiently run a business and do so successfully. I'm proud to be part of their a la maid family and appreciate what the two of them have done for me in an effort to make life a bit easier. I give the company 5 plus stars and recommend to anyone needing this type of professional service to give the office a call. Thank for everything Amanda,Nicole and my cleaning team. You all make a difference. Charlie

I agreed to remove my negative review of A la Maid as I said I would do so the owner of the…read morecompany's husband could continue to work for and together with my husband. After I took down all my reviews on FB & Yelp Amanda still wouldn't let her husband work for mine. Which is fine b/c we found an excellent and caring replacement for him. Kinda sad Amanda made him lose out on $12k worth of work so far. Seriously, over an easily correctable over charge on her part, but she just wouldn't admit to her mathematical mistake. Time to repost to protect all of you from this two faced, somewhat vicious, so called family ran business. They have the ability to over charge you b/c they won't come clean without already taking your credit card information along with a pile of paperwork that they don't read. Matt came out to my house and gave me a verbal quote of $280-$350 and charged me $450. They charged me their Saturday ($50hr) rate on a Thursday for a light dusting of wainscoting & crown. When I caught it they changed and extended the amount of hours they were at my house -nice try! Their base rate is $45hr for light cleaning with no special attention areas. Trying to get a receipt out of this place is practically impossible! They require so much paperwork, but make it a chase to get any from them. Amanda claims their high prices are b/c they are insured like they are so special for covering their own butt. We have a small service business and we are insured and it doesn't cost that much and set us so far apart that we feel we need to constantly remind our clients. If your business is legal and you have a handful of employees working for you on properties then insurance is a given these days. Amanda likes to insult and tell her customers that they are confused when she has no business sense or clarity of her own. The cleaning crew is nice and did a good job. It's the dishonest management that will eventually put them out of business. Amanda will chime in here shortly to bash my review and struggle to defend herself even when it's right here in black and white. The images are the dialogue from my previous Yelp that she told me to remove along with her original replies. She continues to address my name incorrectly and thinks she needs to assist in my math, which is just another additive to her insulting demeanor. Sorry for all the diatribe, but just avoid this mess of a so called small town business. Hire Darcy and her pro staff at "Clean in Between". Now, that's a business you can trust 100%

I didn't intend to use housekeeping services beyond that event but, Mama didn't raise a fool! I don't know how I lived without her all these years!!!! I highly, highly recommend Brenda and her staff

We had some dialog by text so that he could understand the appliance issue more clearly. His business model is one that works on building a customer base. We agreed upon a price for part and installation. He followed through with installing the ordered part, and when the repair did not address the underlying problem he refunded all. His reasoning was that, while this is his livelihood, learning from mistakes also helps his livelihood. I'll hire Mister Fix THIS again. P.s: he runs the fix-it cafe at Reboot
