I found this company through their Instagram ads and booked their deep cleaning and organization service. During the booking, I mentioned that I needed help not just with cleaning but also with setting up an organization system to help maintain tidiness. In hindsight, I could have been more detailed before booking, so I take partial responsibility for that.
First issue: The timing was off. I was told the service would start at 1 PM, but the team arrived at 12 PM. Additionally, the workers only spoke Spanish, which made communication difficult. They were very kind and clearly worked hard, but it was challenging to explain my preferences and the specific way I like to organize my space.
While I do believe they tried their best, I felt a bit misled by their marketing. Their service seems more suited for people dealing with serious hoarding situations rather than someone looking for a more elevated approach to home organization. Unfortunately, my initial concern turned out to be valid--but I did my best to stay understanding and appreciate their effort.
Second issue: The session ran longer than expected. Initially, I was told it would be a 4-hour job, but it ended up taking 5 hours. Thankfully, they arrived early, or the delay would have caused more disruption. I appreciated their willingness to stay longer, but it did affect my schedule and forced me to rearrange other commitments.
Third issue: The job was not fully completed. The service was supposed to cover the whole house, but the closet wasn't finished--even with the extra time. One of the workers told me to contact their manager. When I called, the manager said she could ask them to continue, but I explained I wasn't available to extend the appointment. She didn't offer any other resolution after that.
Cost-wise, I paid around $380 for four hours (plus an unplanned 50 minutes). I don't mind paying for hard work, and I can tell the team put in effort--but there were clear gaps in professionalism and communication. Most disappointing was that the full scope of work wasn't completed as promised. read more
