OMG! If you're going to hire someone to clean your home or office and leave it detailed like a fresh BMW, Kendra, with IMadeaMess.net, is the person to go to. 800 sq ft. Of construction dust and indoor/outdookr dirt from workers, and I needed a space rentable and clean in 36 hrs.?! Well, they turned gray and brown to the blue and white they were intended to be, and every tile and piece of glass and chrome in the bathroom sparkled. I even needed a couple screws tightened, and, vroom vroom, done. I was truly impressed. I'll be having Kendra back for return service and so should others try IMadeAMess.net out. read more

I first contacted Kendra ( also goes by Kene) to perform a deep cleaning of my home after a renovation. My home went from uninhabitable to sparkly in one day. I have a crazy schedule, so having somebody else do this was life changing. The rates are quite reasonable, especially considering that Kendra is so efficient and no-nonsense. Lesser advertised are Kendra's skills in general carpentry, horticulture, and hospitality management. We've organized lots of projects including caulking, painting, skim-coating and even a custom window replacement. Each one has been finished with great care and attention to detail. If you have a short term rental property IMadeaMess can also do quick turnaround services. The first cleaning included making the beds, and I felt like I was in a luxury hotel, but with my own bed linens... I'm not sure how that happened... hospitality skills. Kendra works with autonomy and has great judgment, but the more you consult the more you will learn and be able to discuss your preferences. Highly recommended. A++ read more

Was a no call no show despite texting confirmation the day prior. Wouldn't pick up my calls after they missed the appointment. Don't waste your time. Seems like they have intentions of being an actual company providing a decent service but fail to deliver. Childish. read more

Booked an apartment cleaning. Cleaner never showed up. They did not call us or text. Just never showed. I would hesitate booking with this company. Not professional. read more

Kene is pretty amazing. He cleaned for me regularly for two years when I was living in Center City. (We gave him a key.) He sometimes did laundry for us, and the clothes were always folded and stacked as if they were on display at the Gap. After I did a big construction job in my new house (plaster dust everywhere) Kene came out to NW Philly and cleaned for three days. It was like "disaster recovery." He does a great job. The only thing he falls down on sometimes is being on time. The most important thing to know about Kene is that he is smart and he's able to figure out what's important. As others have said, he sometimes rearranges tabletop things. Don't be put off by that -- he has a terrific sense of design and (my experience) it always ends up looking better. He's fastidious, and that's a great thing to have in a cleaning service. read more

Kendra at first was very responsive and was willing to help come clean my place, which really needed some help because I was in a time crunch. I was really counting on her to come in this morning, but she never showed up. My friend was waiting for her for half an hour and was left standing there for absolutely no reason. Kendra was a huge disappointment and I wish I just went with someone else who was more professional. read more

Kene is very talented in many areas, including decorating, organizing, and cleaning. I have a small studio which often feels cramped. He gave me a lot of great ideas to help me reorganize and create more space. He helped me rearrange my apartment and even helped me moved large furniture items around. He gave me decorating ideas, including where to place my pictures and art pieces. He gave me ideas on how to renovate my bathroom and hallway. I have a lot of books and papers and he was able to give me suggestions on how to conserve space, such as using a chest and file cabinets. I went out and bought a lot of the things he recommended and it made a huge difference! I also have electronics with a lot of wires and he neatened up my wires really well. He deep cleaned very well too. He dusted, vacuumed, and wiped down every corner. And he wiped down everything he moved. Very thorough! A really good job overall! I would definitely recommend him and I will be using his services again! read more

kene did a great job! took all of my specific directions with a smile my apt looks and smells great! I'm ready to schedule my next cleaning. read more

I think that I was possibly too tough on Kene regarding my original review. He has not yet organized/cleaned for me yet, but there was obviously a miscommunication and scheduling issue that was beyond both of our control. I do not hold that against him and I was just upset at the time because I was very excited to find someone with an apparent enthusiasm for cleaning and organizing. I was upset when it fell through. Kene has been nice enough to try and make it up to me by offering me a half-price cleaning and then by offering me his services on a trial basis for a bit, out of the kindness of his heart, due to the complication in our original set-up. I think it's quite brilliantly him to be so generous because if he's as good as I think he probably is it could be a very permanent gig and I know people looking for someone good. He's scheduled to come to clean for me and help me organize on Tuesday afternoon and I am very excited to see how he compares to the many other cleaning services I have tried. The services I have tried through Yelp and elsewhere have varied wildly, from less than -1 star assholes who spent more time taking pictures of my house, blabbing on the phone constantly, and just pushing my dogs hair around into the corners and under furniture to 5+ star awesome cleaners! I can't share the 5+ cleaners with you, firstly because they're not on yelp and secondly because they are ridiculously low in price and incredibly efficient and hard-working. It's already hard enough to get a moment of their time. Hopefully Kene lives up to expectations and we can make this a permanent thing! It's very important to me that who cleans for me or helps me is very animal friendly because I have several disabled and blind animals and he very much is. Makes it difficult because they are small and God for bid they get stepped on or things get moved they can get very hurt. Seems I found a winner!!!!Yay! One service ("the cleaning photographers", lol)actually got repulsed and nearly refused to continue to clean for me because they found an insulin syringe with the caps securely in place on the ground from my daughter that had been used and fell out of the needle receptacle. I can't stand or handle the faint of heart or the excessively judgmental and it doesn't seem that Kene is like that by any means! read more

I don't write alot of reviews but I am so frustrated by this service I had to. Supposed to come Wed then called and asked to change to Thursday so I said ok and then they never showed up. I had company coming and I was really counting on them. I got no call, no email, no yelp message. I finally got in touch with them an hour and a half after the appointment was supposed to start and they said there purse had been stolen from a bar the night before and so they were busy trying to get a new phone. I'm sorry that the bag got stolen but you still have to find a way to contact your clients asap so they can make other arrangements. read more

Ken canceled on us more than once with no explanation. He also did not reply to calls or texts. We waited all day once. I found the whole experience extremely unprofessional. read more
