I booked a deep cleaning for my home, but it seemed more like a regular cleaning. Baseboards, blinds, light fixtures and the stairs were not cleaned. It was also hard to communicate my needs with the cleaner as she did not speak any english. If it were a regular cleaning I'd give a better review, but because I paid for a deep cleaning I expected more. I probably wouldn't book this service again.

Garcia’s House Cleaning

We had biweekly cleanings for 5 months, and things mostly went very well. However, towards the end…read morewhen the owner didn't accompany her husband and the other employees they weren't as thorough with cleanings (spilled cat food and didn't clean it up, didn't vacuum cat hair on the stairs). We overlooked it as the owner would still come with them about every other time and things went well when she was there and the rate was good. However, the last time they were there they left the house and completely left our back door completely wide open and our cat got out. This was a huge oversight, and when I reached out to the owner about it she responded by saying that her husband said we would just leave our back door like that, so it was on us. Unfortunately, we couldn't move forward with using them regardless of how thorough she had been because when her husband was here he wasn't thorough and lost our cat (luckily we found her later that night), and he also didn't even respect us enough to own up to something he did or apologize, so we didn't feel comfortable having him in our home again.

Noe and Maria arrived on time and did a beautiful job on the shower regrout and Noe even accommodated some last minute requests to add caulking in the kitchen and quarter round. Unfortunately, we had different ideas about what grout 'touch-ups' meant for the floors - I wanted a few spots regrouted to match the rest of the flooring's grout color - but it really lacked a professional touch and didn't look good at all. I did invite Noe to come back to redo it, and it still did not meet the professional standard I paid for. I would have appreciated more thorough communication from the start to make sure I was getting what I needed. To be honest, this was not the cheapest quote I got but paid more because of the great reviews. I would be happy to change my review to 5 stars if the team wants to come back for a full regrout on the floors, but I'm not planning to pay any more than I already have.

I didn't realize this is a matching service when I contacted them. I think their business model is…read moreto hire customer service reps from abroad then match you with local small businesses. This is a problem, because: 1. Each time I emailed, a different person answered. Probably 20 emails over 1 week were arranged before I could get a quote and schedule cleaning. Because emails would usually arrive late at night or around 2-4AM, I guessed the emailers were located outside of the US. 2. Phone calls are not effective. Email info could easily have been conveyed in a 5-minute phone call, but when I called, the representative didn't know anything about scheduling. 3. A third-party cleaner comes to your house. This means there isn't consistency in quality. The cleaners complained that there was too much work and that it would take a 2-person team 4 hours to do the work (clean 1.5 bathrooms, put about less than 10 dishes in the dishwasher). One worker did dishes only during this time (at $40/hr, that's about $4/dish). The other cleaned the bathrooms. And of course they finished in less than 1 hour. 4. Communication with the third-party cleaner was poor. After all the time I spent emailing about what would be included, none of the details they asked about were conveyed. This was part of the time I paid for, because 1 worker called their supervisor to try to get out of doing the work.

Finding a house cleaner is difficult for me because i am picky, i am protective of my personal space, i have indoor cats, i am a germphobe and my standards for cleanliness are high.

I made a few appointments with other services, canceled most of them and then actually moving forward with one of them, only to be disappointed. I scheduled with Elmira for a time I knew I would be home so I could get a feel for how her team worked. Her team showed up exactly on time, and they bring everything with them, even the vacuum. After a minute chatting about the areas to be cleaned, they set to work. Four hours later (!!!!) my house was so spotless it looked even better than when I moved in. The price quoted me seemed far too low for the service rendered, so I included some extra. I plan to use Clean and Tidy on a monthly basis going forward. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a reliable service that does a great job and is a cut above the rest.

The place is large. 3bd, 2ba, 1800+ sq ft. Mind you it is empty but that's a lot to cover. What I didn't realize is that 3 women came armed with a wide array of cleaning supplies. I told them they didn't have to vacuum since I was getting the carpet cleaned a few hours later, but they vacuumed up the dust and debris they had collected from swiping every crevice. They went right to work, cleaning all the normal stuff. What impressed me was all the little things they cleaned without my direction, from window sills to the oven grill and pans the laundry closet around the sides of the washer/dryer. They had a telescoping broom made specifically to dust the corners of the wall/ceiling. They even cleaned the light fixtures in the dining room and the lightbulbs. I needed a receipt so she rushed out to get one for me before they were done. I am still taken aback at how efficient they were. I was running around doing last cleanup and even taking work calls, but they were not annoyed or fazed by me. It took them about 2.5 hours and the cost was $140. For that level of quality service, I think that is phenomenal. Keep in mind prices may vary as this place was completely empty. I heard she does most of the Peninsula, so I will definitely refer her to people. Moving out is always stressful and usually somewhat melancholy or bittersweet.
