We were very happy & impressed by Elva's Green Maid Service! She was very responsive & accommodating to our schedule & circumstances! Her prices are fair & the quality of her work is outstanding! Paola assisted Elva & she also did a fantastic job of cleaning! Their attention to detail was beyond our expectations! They took a big load off of our shoulders & we are so grateful! We highly recommend Elva's Green Maid Service & we will definitely call them for our future needs! Thank you Elva & Paola! read more

We were having guests over the next week, so I scheduled a cleaning with Elva at Green Maid Today. A few after booking, I was looking up at the dusty vent cover in our bathroom and thought to myself that I would have to take care of that before our guests arrived. I didn't even think that the cleaners would touch it, as none of the other cleaning services I've used before bothered. Well, imagine my surprise after Elva and her partner left in looking up at the vent and seeing them both wiped clean. I was amazed at the level of detail they took to clean every corner of our house (even the tops of the baseboards!). I am so grateful, and look forward to booking Green Maid Today many more times in the future. Even my husband, who has also been unsatisfied with other cleaners we have used, noticed a huge difference. Days later, we are still pleasantly being surprised in finding areas of the house that have been immaculately cleaned. I didn't even feel like I had to give too much instruction on what I wanted done - they both went right to work and they work very hard and efficiently. They obviously know what they're doing and know how to satisfy their clients. Highly recommend! Thank you, Elva! read more

We love the Green Maid Today ladies who clean our house. Their work is spotless, non-toxic and just amazingly clean. Our house can get really dusty and funky so I know they have their work cut out for them when they come here. They even moved our couch and cleaned behind it! The one minus is that I'm never sure when they're going to arrive - it's not a huge deal for me because I work mostly from home, but if you are on a tight schedule you may want to get confirmation on the window of arrival time. Other than that the cleaners are so lovely, sweet and so thorough. They make our life so much easier. read more

Green Maid Today - The ladies moved the couch on the left to clean even behind and underneath it and then super-cleaned this fluffy fuzzy vacuum killing rug! - Home Cleaning Near Me - El Cerrito, California

Elva and her team do a thorough job of cleaning, are attentive to details, and use non-toxic cleaning products. I once had one of her staff ask permission to use a tiny bit of bleach to get rid of some mold in my bathroom (yes, it was fine to do so), and because they didn't bring any bleach themselves, just used mine. I appreciated it best with they used vinegar to disinfect. They started to use a product with a strong fragrance which my housemates did not like, so definitely ask about fragrances and opting out of that. Initially when we worked with Elva, she would have a consistent team of people who worked at our home, and we came to recognize them. Over the years, we noticed that there's been lots of turnover of staff, which sometimes meant having to communicate small specific details over and over again. The additional challenge working with Elva is that she would occasionally arrive to the job 30 minutes late. Overall, I think they can provide solid cleaning service, but in our experience it wasn't always smooth over the years. It just takes some understanding to work with them. read more

Such an amazing team. I can't say enough good about them! My husband asked them to come clean our house for my birthday last year. I cried when I came home because our house was so beautifully clean! We've booked them regularly since then. As mentioned in other reviews, they attend to all the little details. This includes cleaning under surfaces, vacuuming on the couch, and they attend to the cosmetics of the clean space, as well (my toddler's room, in particular, always looks extra adorable when they leave!) They also welcome specific requests such as walls, windowsills, etc., which are done to perfection. The team are very personable and nice, and it's great to see the camaraderie they have with each other. These women are amazing! read more

Green Maid Today is owned by Elva Aguilar. She stands out for several reasons: She and her partner do a fabulous job cleaning with only non toxic cleaners. She knows all the tricks for getting out stains, dealing with dirt from kids, pets, dust, etc, and she rotates her focus so that your house gets the full service treatment, not the same old motions every week. The other notable quality about Elva is that she is smart and responsible. She is always on time, communicates with me via text (which sounds trivial but makes it so easy to book appts), and is very reasonably priced. She is flexible, friendly, and provides a wonderful service. Even my husband (who never thought we would have a 'cleaning lady' fell in love with her after only 1 visit). You will love Elva! read more

Green Maid Today are great ! Elva and her crew do great deep cleaning and are respectful of the property at the same time, no collateral damage. They show up on time and they stay until they're done. I never get that hit and run feeling that I got with another service. Communication is clear and accurate, and Elva and her crew are really nice. read more

As a single mama with kids who have dust mite allergies and chemicals, Green Maid Today is my saving grace! I have had other cleaners in the past, but always ran into problems with either trust issues or not doing a thorough job. Elva and her crew, has always done a thorough job of cleaning and I trust her implicitly! They have been cleaning my home regularly for a few years now, and I am consistently very happy with the level of work they do. Thank you, thank you!!! read more

Elva and Her staff are some of the most meticulous hard-working women I've seen they come and just clean my house miraculously every two weeks I've been having her clean my house for months now I can't stop I need everything clean the way that she does it it's perfect every time .It doesn't matter what I asked them to do from vacuuming out the couch cleaning the oven or wiping everything down the baseboards anything I ask her to do she's happy to do it she does it in a timely matter she never complains and it's always perfect I pay a completely fair amount for a three bedroom three bath 2000 ft.² Home it takes them from an hour to two hours to clean my house depending on how dirty it is. Whatever she charges is fair for your home she does an amazing job and everything is safe to use in the home nothing is toxic that she cleans with everything comes out clean She's also tolerant of anything going on she minds her business I've never had anything come up missing I have given her a house key I completely trust her she is completely safe I would vouch for her anytime This will be the only lady cleaning my house as long as I live in the area Even if I were to get a better deal somewhere else I wouldn't change cleaners My boyfriend also has his house cleaned by the same company they do an amazing job he is a complete slob and it's always clean after they clean. I believe they even do whatever load of laundry needs to be done...I think If you just tell her what you want she will do exactly as you asked she is the best house cleaner ever had . read more

Green Maid Today - Perfect! Nice vacuum and she makes my couch look nice even fluffs the pillows - Home Cleaning Near Me - El Cerrito, California

We are having house guest this week and they did a great job , we were pleased especially with the detail of cleaning the windows and the blinds. They did a very good job . We will definitely hire them again. read more

Elva and her team are AMAZING. We started with their service in 2013 after my first kid was born, and they've stayed with us through a move and a second kid. They clean my house so much better than I ever could. Great attention to detail, very reliable. They are so thorough (move stuff, clean under/around stuff)... Can't imagine life without them! read more

Elva and her team are completely wonderful! They have kept both my home and home office clean and tidy now for several years. They come every other week and are so nice about cleaning around my sometimes messy office area and bedrooms. They will even clean the dishes if I haven't had time! What I like best is how well they clean everything at a deep level. I can't say enough good things about Elva and her team at Vittas House Cleaning Service!! read more

This team is the best. Very thorough. They made my house livable again in a very short amount of time. I avoided hiring cleaners, but it got to the point that I had to. There's no toxic aromas at all, no nasty chemicals used. I appreciate Elva and her team, and all of the nice work they do. read more

Elva and crew have been cleaning my home for a few months now and I cannot be more impressed. The house looks great! Elva does a lot more than a dust and sweep, the entire house is deep cleaned, including corners. We have a craft-man style house with lots of wood details and it is all perfectly clean after each visit. Moreover, she even cleans out my four-year-old sons crazy room , which is a bonus! High recommended! read more

Elva and her Green Maids are absolutely terrific house cleaners. They are fast, very thorough, and do an excellent job. They clean under the area rug as well as the rug itself. They mop by the sink carefully and get all the dirt out of the pattern on the linoleum. They are friendly and cheerful, and want to know what they could improve on. I recommend them most highly. She makes her own cleaning agents, and uses a LOT of elbow grease! She keeps in good touch by text, and lets me know when she will arrive. I am very pleased with her service! read more

Did a great job! I paid hourly as it was our first cleaning and it will be a flat rate going forward. The crew was on time and did a very thorough job. I had some hard water stains that a previous cleaner told was impossible to get rid of and the green maids had no problem removing them. All the cleaning products are natural, no weird chemicals. I will absolutely continue to work with them. read more

Elva and her co-workers are amazing at their skills and a pleasure to work with. I found Elva on Craigslist at least 10 years ago and she has continued to be a wonderful find. She is thorough, responsible, reliable and caring. I have continued to recommend her many times in the last decade! read more

We had two of Eva's finest at our place today for the deep clean and were stunned at the results. Meticulous and whatever they use has everything shining. We are hooked and will use on a more regular basis. read more

Elva and her partner came to my extremely needy place in December and did a great job, so back they came yesterday and everything is back in order. Fair price and great service. What more do you need? read more

Well, here we are almost six years later and we are still devoted Green Maid Today users. We have a standing every other week cleaning, and it is so delightful to walk in to a totally clean house. I love that they often find things that we thought were missing and gone forever. Having help like this is crucial to maintaining your sanity a a dual working family with young kids, and having it set up for every other week cleaning has been a lifesaver for our family. Elva's crew does a great job, they are reliable, and it all feels very seamless. read more

Elva and her team are fantastic! They did a move-out cleaning for me and the property was truly ready for move-in when they were done. Professional, punctual and friendly. read more

Elva has been working for me for about 10 years! First we were in an apartment in San Francisco, then a small home in Oakland, and now a home in Berkeley. She is fast and thorough and takes pride in her work. She does not just dust and tidy, she thoroughly cleans under all the chairs, and between all the nooks and crannies, etc. I agree that the best day of the week is the day that Elva comes. It is like pushing the restart button and everything in the house is clean and in order again. She is a lifesaver and must for anyone who wants to stay sane, not to mention that she is very honest. I have never ever had to worry about anything valuable in my house. Trust me...she is the best! read more

I used Green Maid Today services for about a year. Initially they did a good job. Not great, but good. I don't think I will ever find any service that will clean my home the way I would. After a while the service seemed to slip, details were missed. After my toaster over was damaged, without any notification to me, I'd had enough and decided it was time to let them go. After a few go rounds cleaning my home, the details missed became very apparent. The base boards had not been cleaned for months, the tops of the door frames were filthy - I'm not sure over the year I used them they were ever wiped down. They did not do a good job sweeping before mopping, as I've been cleaning caked on dirt from corners and parameter of my home. I was paying them to clean a small, three bedroom home, and 99% of the time I requested the third bedroom not be cleaned. I would hope that given they were being paid to clean a three bedroom, but were only cleaning two of the bedrooms majority of the time, they might spend the time to pay closer attention to details. I would not recommend for long term service. read more

Whenever I come home from work on the day that Elva cleans, I immediately start singing "I love Elva, I love Elva, I love Elva." She's that good. Meticulous, fast, reasonable, honest, and dependable. But most importantly, the house looks amazing, like the good fairy came and whisked all the dirt away and tidied all the messes. Elva and her crew have been working her magic in our house for 8 years now. One day, after proclaiming my love for Elva, my daughter said "Mommy, are you going to marry Elva?". You know, I just might. read more

I was very pleased with the tenant move-out cleaning service provided by Green Maid Today. The owner promptly responded to my initial phone message. She confirmed our appointment the day before. She arrived on time. She was accommodating when the house was not yet ready to be cleaned because the tenants were still moving out. She did an amazingly thorough job cleaning the house, even going so far as to move the heavy refrigerator to clean behind it. She didn't complain that the house cleaning took a little longer than expected because of an underestimation on my part. And she understood that I had to leave early before she was done so I could return my Zipcar on time. She stayed behind and continued to clean. Overall, I was very impressed, and I would recommend the company's services. read more

They are great. Their service is fast and scheduling is not hard. I just wished they could move objects to cleanse and not just under. However, from other services they have been the best. I do recommend them. read more

We hired Elva and her team to do a deep clean for us in the last weeks before our baby was born, and we are very impressed! The team arrived early and in about 2 1/2 hours they took care of 3 years' worth of grime, dust and cobwebs. Even our clutter was nicely arranged by the time they left :) We may take some time off to get our heads together once baby arrives, but I suspect we will be calling them again in the chaotic aftermath. Great job, ladies! read more

Elva is the best! She & her cheerful team have been cleaning our home since 2002. Our home always sparkles & glows when she leaves - it is a joy to return to. She is thorough, careful, efficient, honest & also intelligent and thoughtful. She thinks of imaginative ways to do an ever better job, & over time her work - always good - improves. She uses healthy, green cleaning products. We have had others clean our home before Elva, but none as well or efficiently. We give Elva our highest recommendation! read more

Elva has cleaned for me and is on time, effiecient friendly and I am very happy with the clean house. The green products are so much better for me and my cats. Sometimes we just need someone to help us w our housework. Elva your the best for me! read more
