For a few years, I had a regular house cleaning service come every 3-4 weeks. But then I moved, and…read moremy old cleaner wasn't traveling to the new area. I used Yelp to look at 8-9 different house cleaning providers in the area, read all of the reviews, asked about prices, etc. I found that Ana's Detailed House Cleaning presented as the best option for me: prices were reasonable, ratings and reviews indicated they did good work and had been doing it for quite a few years, and above all else they were very responsive over Yelp's messaging service. While I did see a few 1 and 2-star ratings, after reading those reviews I found most of them to be weird complaints from years and years ago. They're not indicative of current service. The promptness and attentiveness, combined with being intentional about explaining their services and answering questions in a reasonable amount of time, showed to me they were taking their work seriously. I started with a Deep Cleaning, which was just finished today. They did a great job. They caught little issues other house cleaners have ignored (dust under the fridge, for example) and went above and beyond to make the beds in a nice and well-presented manner. They were also friendly to my cats. I'm looking forward to having them come regularly.

I used Gregoria and her team with a tight turn around for a move in cleaning. She was so kind and…read moreresponsive in her communication and we were able to book her and her team right before a move in date. The house is a 3 bedroom house with a large kitchen, bathroom, dining and living room. A team of 3 people came and they were done in about 3 hours. They came right on time as expected and cleaned the place top to bottom! She was communicative throughout the process and payment was a breeze. There was one slight increase to her original estimate but she sent pictures as to why and I was in total agreement. I truly appreciated the transparency. We will likely book her and her team for our future rental cleanings!

I hired Sunshine to clean myhouse.. every two weeks. Rocio has worked for me for 8 years and I've…read morealways been very happy. Most important is that I can trust them with my keys to my house, because they have impeccable integrity. I trust them with my house, my things, my animals and everything has always been well cared for. I also love that Rocio and her crew leave the house clean, organized and she's always thinking about ways I can better organize what I have. I've also hired her for parties and she and her crew have helped prepare food, clean glasses and plates from guests ongoing through the event, and replenish drink and food serving areas. She is extremely nice.. and over the years I've recommended her to several friends who all still use her, in places like Palo Alto, Mountain View, Los Altos and even Berkeley, which I believe she goes to for clients once every week or two.

We've only had one deep cleaning so far but we're looking forward to regular monthly cleanings…read more Glenda is responsive over text and the cleaners were friendly, professional, and efficient. The most impressive thing of all is that they managed to clean our kitchen hood. We rent and when we moved in six years ago it was already dripping grease, it was so gunked up (like, it was literally coming out of the light and fan switches). We hired cleaners when we first moved in but they looked at the hood and said it couldn't be done, so ever since we never bothered to clean it or look into getting it cleaned. I didn't mention the hood to the Magic Hands cleaners and assumed they would also skip it like the previous cleaners, so my jaw hit the floor when they showed it to me after they had finished the house. All the grease was gone! We don't have grease dripping down onto the counters anymore! I'm so embarrassed we've been living like this for the last six years! So a huge thanks to Magic Hands for showing us we don't have to live in filth

Pros: great communication, good service reasonable price…read more I've had the chance to work with Glenda and her team for 3 appointments now. Each time, they have come on time and have done a great job cleaning my apartment. I found pricing to be straightforward and reasonable. They have also made sure to have at least two staff cleaning the apartment so that my 1100 sq apt is usually done in less than two hours. Would definitely recommend them as a good option for house cleaning in the Berkeley area.

After calling around to several services who couldn't fit us in, the Goncan team came through on short notice, squeezed us into their schedule, and showed up right on time. They cleaned our new home from top to bottom- floors, walls, appliances, everything spotless. My mother-in-law (a former house cleaner herself) was genuinely impressed, and that says a lot. The place looked absolutely amazing and honestly got us even more excited to move in. We can't recommend Goncan Cleaning Services highly enough. Professional, thorough, and exactly what you hope for when you need someone to come through in a pinch. Thank you!

I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a regular cleaner.

When they "finished" none of the cabinet surfaces were cleaned, there were still cobwebs, the sink was still grimy, the windowsills were not even cleaned, and the backlash of the kitchen was still dirty.

And one of the cleaners spilled all over the back of an artwork. What a headache!

I had movers coming in the afternoon, so I needed cleaning services in the morning. Despite our previously agreed-upon time of 9 AM, the cleaners never arrived. The operator was not communicative at all - I had to keep pestering her for updates on the cleaner's arrival. Their ETA was consistently wrong, and they even lied to me about the cleaner's arrival at one point - the operator told me that the cleaner could not find parking at our location, but there was ample street parking outside at the time. After waiting 90 minutes and with the cleaners nowhere to be seen and the movers arriving soon, I had to cancel the scheduled cleaning service. There was no apology or accountability for their lack of punctuality and dishonesty. I cannot recommend Patricia's Cleaning Services to anyone.
