Since April of Shine Like a Diamond Cleaning responded so dishonestly to my first review - I am now making this a Totally negative review with a zero or "less than zero" rating. I contacted April's business for a house cleaning, as I had purchase a previously owned home and wanted it cleaned before I moved in (like a move-in or move-out cleaning like people often do when they buy a different home). If the government checked phone records they would see that Daren made the first contact with the supposed "good" general contractor he recommended to do things like remodel the kitchen. Daren (with - April standing there) called "Jimmy" on his phone saying that my house needed some remodeling including the kitchen. That started the "Jimmy" scam of taking my money for work done wrong, work not done at all - but paid for, and other theft. Many people have looked at the house since, and were horrified how April and Daren's friend "Jimmy Massaro" damaged the home, and charged me outrageously for it. April and Daren most certainly knew who they were recommending! Others have seen the house since, and can't believe how "Jimmy" damaged an otherwise visually pleasing home. If it has become a money pit - it is because I have had to have Jimmy's bad work torn out, and redone by others (including having to throw away damaged materials I had paid for, and repurchase them). April and Daren's recommendation of Jimmy, and Jimmy's bad work, led to money problems with the house - it wasn't the house itself causing the great losses. April and Daren should be ashamed of themselves for: sending an odd stranger (without any cleaning supplies or his own vacuum) to "clean my house" . They charged me around $500 for pretty much nothing. April and Daren were defiantly part of the "con-to- scam me. I was an older, female, from out of town - and must have looked like ripe pickings for a scam and financial gain. While I was hurt by their scam in this lifetime, these three people, if not punished now, will be punished on their reckoning day. The Lord does not like people who are involved with stealing from others. April, Daren, and James Massaro need to read about what happens to thieves according to the Bible. It is said that there are some people who are either born without a conscious, or never developed one. James Massaro was probably born without a conscious, and April and Daren probably stunted the growth of their consciouses by their quest for financial gain - even though that meant hurting others. PS. April claims I waited a year to leave a negative review of her. The reason is that the house problems showed up in layers over that time, as Jimmy's work had to be torn out. (Example: Jimmy drywalled the kitchen "before" the electrical was done. Jimmy said the electricians could just fish wires up from the basement and down from the upstairs for electrical service. Why? Because Jimmy's contact said he received a drawl for drywall. (He didn't care that the wrong order of doing drywall would cost the electricians more time and me more expense in the long run). Plus doing the drywall quickly covered up things Jimmy did wrong with the kitchen framing). read more

April and her team did a fantastic job deep cleaning my family's 1500 square feet rental unit at the jersey shore. She was polite, reliable and on time. She also helped us cleaned up window which I otherwise thought had to be professionally attended to by a window company. I'd highly recommend Shine like a Diamond Cleaning for all of your household cleaning needs! read more
