    I asked if they do a full on wipe down for the walls, she said no, only the stains or marks that they see.
    Wenai J.

    I hired Pink Sponge for a deep clean of my 1,000 sq ft condo and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. 1. Miscommunication from the Start I reached out via text and requested a deep clean, including walls, baseboards, and the garage. However, when the cleaner arrived, she was under the impression that only the walls, baseboards, and garage were expected. Because of this miscommunication, she spent the first 20 minutes on the phone with her office trying to clarify the scope. Eventually, I told her to just start the job, and that if she needed more time, I would be open to adding extra hour. 2. Understaffed and Poor Value Maybe it's just me, but in my experience, cleaning crews usually come in pairs -- especially when charging by the hour. In this case, only one person was sent, and I was not informed ahead of time. I later learned that if they had sent two people, the price would have doubled -- again, not communicated upfront. Also, that would mean paying almost $600 for a 1000sq ft condo?! 3. Unacceptable Quality of Work By the 2.5-hour mark, she claimed to have finished cleaning the kitchen, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms, yet none of the rooms were vacuumed or mopped, and many surfaces were still dirty. I'll be uploading photo evidence of the work that was left undone. When I asked she said bedrooms surfaces are not wiped and no vacuum, so in reality at this point she has only half way done with 2 bathrooms and kitchen What stood out even more was that, during my inspection, I noticed the door frames were untouched, even though I had specifically told her in the beginning that I wanted all doors wiped down. When I pointed it out, she responded (I'm quoting her exact words)-- "I have to be told to clean that." Then she asked, "So do you want me to clean it?" -- it was frustrating that something so basic had to be requested again after I had already stated it. 4. No Resolution from the Office I reached out to the office with a detailed explanation of what went wrong and sent photos showing the issues. At first, I was told a refund request would be submitted on my behalf. But after a few emails back and forth, they stopped responding entirely -- no follow-up, no accountability, and no resolution. 5. Unprofessional On-Site Experience The cleaner took a lunch break at 11:30am., just 2.5 hours into a three-hour job that started at 9:00 a.m. I understand that W-2 employees may be required to take breaks, but I was hiring a crew for a project, not managing an employee's shift. What felt unprofessional was that she left the house for 30 minutes, with all her tools and equipment left scattered throughout, with only 30 minutes of working time left. It disrupted the momentum of the job and didn't reflect the professionalism I expected. I understand that running a small business is not easy. That's why I didn't post this review right away. I gave the company a chance to resolve it. I explained everything in detail over the phone, provided photos, and was very clear about why I was disappointed. At the end of the day, all I wanted was a response. If they believe this is the level of service they stand behind and that charging $267 was fair, I accept that -- and I have the right to share my experience publicly. But if they believe a refund is appropriate based on the actual quality of the work, then they should have taken actions and at least communicated with me.

    My home barely cleaned at all dirty carpet Rugs rolled up not even picking up a piece of paper The lady was nice but even the car they gave her wouldn't start She said they need to finish in two I was told to pay the higher price and she leaves when she's done She was not done by any stretch Worst house cleaning I ever got I spoke with the manager and she was very courteous and asked how they can remedy the situation We agreed they send another employee (Emily) who is quite good and cleaned a couple areas and that eased my disappointment a bit I don't believe I can use this service due to their very strict rules about not moving or picking up anything I'll upgrade to 3 stars from one

My parents and I are amazed at the quality of their work. The house was absolutely sparkling at the end of the day (it took over 9 hours!!!). They took direction very well, and paid so much attention to the details, which has not been my experience among house cleaners, sadly. I also appreciated James' communication leading up to cleaning day. He walked through the house with me ahead of time to fully understand the scope, and gave me a very reasonable estimate. He was great at communicating over text, and showed up promptly on cleaning day. It took way longer than anticipated due to the stubbornness of the grime, but the guys took it in stride and refused to leave until the job was done. We will definitely be calling Confident Cleanings again, and will be referring them to others.

James did great and it is basically unnoticeable! Took a bit longer than I anticipated, but I'm glad they didn't just rush through to get out because it was taking so long! Will definitely be calling them again!

She was 3 hours late to the appointment time. I schedule a deep cleaning with her and gave her a list of some things to not miss/focus on. She ran late finishing by herself and told me if I see anything during the day to let her know so she will come back. I said ok and paid. Tomorrow morning I look through the house and it's horrible for a deep cleaning. Dirty everywhere. I messaged her immediately about did you atleast vacuum downstairs and instead of sticking to what she said about taking care of anything she missed, she started saying she only would do what's on the list. I'm pretty sure a deep cleaning includes vacuuming and wipe downs and basic cleaning ect. Regardless she started attacking me about none of vacuuming ect downstairs is part of deep cleaning and just took the money a ran. Does not stand behind her work. FIND SOMEONE ELSE. I PAID CLOSE TO 400 for this and there were plenty others with a team to clean at that price. NEVER AGAIN.

I called on a Friday to inquire about cleaning services then confirmed over text a Monday at 3pm appointment. She texts me Monday morning saying that her other client before me requested additional services, so she asked if I wanted her to come at 10am the next day. I was already annoyed because I took Monday off work to clean and organize. I replied asking if she could come after her first appointment. No reply. I followed up 2.5 hours later. She replied she was busy. I sent a follow up text almost four hours later. She said she could come around 1pm on Tuesday (next day). At 11:30am on Tuesday, I text to confirm. She says she's at a meeting at her son's school, but yes. At 1:37pm, I ask if she's coming soon. She says she's waiting on her son's teacher for the meeting. I say I understand, but it would be great if she could keep me updated with timing. She did not reply. I check in at 3:40pm. No response again. I call at 4:01pm. She does not pick up. I end up cancelling the appointment even though I doubt she was ever planning to come. Unless there's an explanation, it seems like she lied. She said she was at the meeting at 11:30am then says she's waiting for the meeting with the teacher at 1:54pm. As you can see in the texts I uploaded, she fails to communicate and update me in a timely manner.. or at all really. This experience was absolutely unacceptable and unprofessional. I would've happily paid more to another company from the start to guarantee the service I requested. EDIT: Maricela's daughter and husband called to make things right, which I appreciate, but I decided to book another house cleaner. Also, 6 reviews were posted after I posted my review lol. Within the past 3 hours. Clearly they're faking reviews because some of the posters have only ever posted once. They're trying to drown my review. And as to Maricela's response, you should've communicated to me that you weren't able to come, which you did not today. Proof in the screenshots. I am empathetic to your situation, but don't say you can do something you can't.

I requested a deep cleaning of my completely empty 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, one story, 1140 sq ft condo. The day of the job, 2 very nice ladies showed up with all of their own cleaning products and vacuum. They took 5 hours at $75 an hour and I tipped them $25 each. They did a really nice job cleaning the vertical blinds in each of the 3 rooms and the dining area where the large window with sliding doors also has blinds. The rest of the house where I can tell they cleaned, they did a decent job, however I immediately noticed that: they did not properly clean inside the shower of one of the bathrooms because there were some cobwebs in the corner; they did not dust the walls since I could see some cobwebs in one of the bedrooms and near the vent of the dining area; the chandelier in the dining area was still dusty; the top of the bathroom cabinets were dusty; the washer and dryer are in a closet where the sliding doors are removed, the bottom tracks were dusty and clearly not vacuumed. I just feel that working in an empty home for 5 hours should not result in so many details missed. For the price they charged and the time they took, I was very disappointed. While I appreciate the punctuality of the ladies, their kindness and the quality of cleaning they provided on what I could tell was cleaned, I do not think I can work with this company again, nor would I recommend them.
