After my tenant of 11 years moved out I gave Tami a call. She came over, assessed the job and then sent in a crew to clean the place. The house had just been remodeled before the tenant moved in so the last time I had seen the place it was all new. While the tenants were very good and left the place relatively clean after 11 years, Tami came in with her crew and put the sparkle back into the abode. She even came in and, upon inspection, brought the crew back in for another once over! I appreciated that and, I'm sure will be using Santa Barbara Green Clean again in the future. read more

The best service. Truly spectacular attention and care! I needed to have last-minute carpet cleaning, and Tami made it happen! Exceeded expectations! Highly recommend. Six stars if ever a possibility. read more

Tami and her crew are friendly, reliable, listen well and do an amazing job!! She prepared a rental for me recently and not only was it sparkling clean, every attention to detail was clearly noticeable. I was especially comforted knowing that all the surfaces were cleaned with gentle, earth-friendly products. The apartment looked and smelled AMAZING! Highly recommend for any cleaning needs you may have too! read more

Santa Barbara Green Clean - Home Cleaning Near Me

I am uncertain what happened with this company. They used to do exceptional cleaning, and we regularly returned to them for Axxess deal discounts and cleanings. We were moving and decided to get a moveout clean on both our new property and the one we were selling. The cleaners arrived, reported no water 2 hours into the scheduled clean via text message (no calls), and we didn't notice the text for another 2 hours. Even items that required NO water went uncleaned (cleaning windows, vacuuming, cleaning the refrigerator, etc). Disappointed, we contacted the owner and said we no longer wanted the second property cleaned. Her response was to remove the discount from our bill, changing it from 705 to 880. When we sent her images of the cleaning, she blocked us. When I was finally able to reach her via a different phone, she agreed to fix the cleaning job for the original invoiced amount. She came for a short 2.5 hour clean with one other cleaner, laughed about almost forgetting to bring the key to our old property, and tried to negotiate back to 880. She agreed to 750, left my house, then emailed me telling me to pay 880 OR she will bill 750 and send a new bill for her "fix." She is extremely deceptive, dishonest, and I have filed a complaint with the BBB requesting an adjustment since she won't even take my calls any longer. Edit: Similar to another recent review, her approach was also to threaten a lien on our house. She didn't mention it again after we said we closed escrow already, but I can't imaging anyone wanting to do business with someone that has this tact. read more

Perfect (And Health-Conscious) Cleaners! Tami and Ashley are not only spectacular cleaners and organizers who use eco-friendly products, they are delightful people. We called them hoping for a last-minute appointment, and sure enough, Tami worked us in on short notice--and even stopped by in advance to see our 3 br house that hadn't been properly deep cleaned since we moved in, give a quote, and prepare for what needed to be done. Well--top to bottom, it WAS done, and done expertly, for the exact quote she gave. Spotless bathrooms, floors, surfaces, bedding done, beds made, and organizational solutions created while we were away for the day. I could not recommend this company more. You will get a personalized, and personable touch that is very hard to find. read more

Iris did a great job cleaning my home. She's very thorough and a really hard worker. The cleaning products that she used instantly made me feel more calm because of the essential oils. Will contact them again when I need an extra hand with housework! read more

Very dishonest shady company. WARNING They DO NOT honor the $90 for your first cleaning deal that they have advertised in the axxess book! I found this business in the axxess book. Called them and told them I wanted the axxess deal. They came to clean and told me after two hours that the cost would actually be over $300 hourly & was going to take 7-8 hours. (This was a brand new completely empty house.) First of all Who charges that for cleaning?! So I immediately told her to stop cleaning as we couldn't afford that atrocious amount. She then kept changing the price to more & more... When I told her I would only pay for the axxess deal that they had advertised, as that is what I told her I wanted when I called. (Not to mention they had only cleaned for 2 hours which the axxess deal says $90 for 3 hours). She then threatened to put a lien on our house! Absolute insanity! We ended up paying her the crazy expensive amount just to make her go away. Which was totally unjust, but we had too much other stress going on in our lives at that time to deal with her dishonest business practices. And she did all of this at Christmas time, what a gem of a lady! I have heard this same exact scenario has happened to many other people in town who have called them for the axxess deal. Take your business elsewhere! read more

Hired SB Green Clean at the last minute from the other side of the country. Hadn't been home in about 6 months and my poor partner was on overwhelm with all the cleaning and straightening that needed to be done before I got home. They could not have been more accommodating! Tami arranged a cleaning for us on very short notice. They even offered to come on Sunday if we needed. They showed up on time and immediately went to work! There was no slacking around. Their prices are reasonable. Very easy and very pleasant to work with! Thank you Tami for your help! read more

I was housesitting for two months in a beautiful home in Santa Barbara when some uninvited guests also took up residence - dark mold creeping onto the bathroom's white grout, mildewy gunk all over the washing machine seal and dust bunnies that started multiplying by the hour. I called Green Clean and low and behold, Tami turned out to be the same trusted cleaning person for the house. And I soon learned why. I've heard of elbow grease but these ladies put in love. Like magic, they made the bathroom mold and washing machine mildew disappear, and without toxic cleaning agents. They relocated the dust bunnies and even the spiders, including outside at the front entrance. They cleaned Really thoroughly, generously and with unexpected care. The house smelled great and felt renewed. You can tell Tami and her crew take pride in their work. I'm so grateful she's the one I called and look forward to seeing them again today. read more

We have used Santa Barbara Green Clean for about three years. It is the most professional cleaning service we have ever used. They always do more than we expect, providing thorough cleaning, week after week. I wholeheartedly recommend Santa Barbara Green Clean! read more

You will not be disappointed with Green Clean. Tami has been helping me for years now, and you will be fortunate to get her services as she has a local, proven reputation. My vacation rental was meticulously cared for, including very last minute requests which she scrambled to make happen, without a flither! I now ask her to help me keep my personal place spotless, organize some, and she always goes above and beyond with laundry, the outside deck, kitchen, and bathroom. When Tami hires, she makes sure they will deep clean the way she does, before sending them out. And, she communicates on a dime. Tami is more than worth it! read more

Tami inspected an empty restaurant kitchen and gave a bid for cleaning it. When I asked if they had the experience doing this work she said yes. I found out that was not true. They struggled to execute the work and then did not keep the agreed per hour charge, they also double billed for work, in addition to having to do things three times over. For example, if you have to degrease the ceiling, you start with it first, not last. If you are milking the job, you would do it last, so you can charge again to clean the walls, counters and equipment. Two wire racks she had degreased, had not been degreased, I asked her to complete the work as had already billed and been paid for that, instead she sent a bill to my client for another $280 for 7 hours! which was outrageous. Tami had a very entitled attitude when these issues were brought up and said she should have charged more and was doing us a favor. I also had to buy proper cleaning tools for the work since she was using house hold scrubbers and cleaners. She did not reimburse me or leave the tools, she kept them. No integrity. What was should have been a $2000 job turned into a $3,400.00 bill plus a pipe repair and a light they broke. Nice staff, but DO NOT HIRE them for commercial work. My client didn't want to deal with her any more and wrote it off. Why can't people be honest when you ask point blank, do you have experience in this area? Very expensive mistake. We paid for her "learning" curve. Unprofessional handling of the situation. read more

I found SB Green Clean while my regular housekeeper was away on holiday. (And I have to admit, her work was moderate at best.) Wow, Tami and her daughter were amazing! I loved their work ethic and fearlessness about diving in and cleaning deep. Suffice it to say that they are now my regular housekeepers. Would highly recommend. read more

Well I am super disappointed in my attempt to get my home cleaned with Tammy. About a month ago I called, left a message and got a return text message saying she was sorry it had taken so long to get back to me and I said it was no problem and she said she would call soon. Well I saw a call come in but was unable to pick up and only realized much later it was her because she didn't leave a message but I finally recognized the phone number. Fast forward to last week. I called again because we really need someone and there are so many good reviews. We made an appointment for her to come to my house but when the time came she hadn't shown, again I received a phone call with no message (this is very strange in my opinion) but I recognized the number and called back. She explained to me that one of her workers. (She calls them helpers, which is also strange to me) had a sick child she needed to attend to so I said I understood (I have kids) and we made an appointment they for her to come the following day at 10. I had to cancel something to fit it in my schedule but didn't mind as she was nice on the phone and great reviews. Well 10:00 came and left and nobody showed. I was leaving the house at 10:30 and this young lady came walking towards our home with cleaning supplies asking me if she had our address so I said yes but that she was suppose to be there at 10:00 and she said oh, I had car trouble but when I asked why there hadn't been a phone. All she said that her mom was unavailable so this was the first I understood that she was Tammy's daughter. I told her that I couldn't stay and was going to have to get someone else so she left without an apology. I was pulling out of the driveway but was stopped by a lady knocking on my window so I rolled it down and it was Tammy saying she wanted to apologize and giving me an excuse that she couldn't be there right at 10 so she had sent her "helper" who was actually her daughter. And when I said she wasn't here at ten she said oh everything got backed up because the day before her worker was unable to make it into work. I appreciate the attempt at the apology but she took no responsibility and the communication is just really vague and strange. So unless you don't mind weird communication style and a complete lack of managing a business then maybe you will like her. Not for me. read more

I've been using Tami for 3 yrs in all my vacation rental homes. I can't say enough good things about her and her staff. After years of going through cleaning crews, utter disappointment and frustration I've finally found a company I can depend on! My homes always smell amazing from the essential oils she uses to clean with. I'm not sure what she uses on the floors....it doesn't matter if it's hardwood, marble, or tile they always sparkle. Tami is a delight to work with, she's not over priced like other companies out there, and most of all her staff is reliable and trustworthy. Being in the vacation rental business that speaks volumes, these girls have to have extreme attention to detail. By far the best company I've ever used! read more

Tami and her team are amazing! She is consistent and always does a great thorough job. I never worry that my scheduled clean will be completed and she is extremely flexible if I need to change up my schedule. I would recommend her for all of your cleaning needs! read more
