*****BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY***** I used White Glove for a little over 2 years with no problems. However, on 2/23/17 I came home after a regularly scheduled cleaning, and to my horror, discovered that my 2 1-2 month old $2600 stainless steel stove had scratches ALL OVER the top and front control panel. The stove looked as though it had been rubbed all over with a steel wool pad. White Glove used their own cleaning supplies at my house and I had informed them when we first purchased the stove that we didn't even want chemicals used on the stove. We ONLY cleaned it with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. This instruction was clearly NOT followed during the cleaning on 2/23. I immediately contacted Violet, the company's contact person and sent her several pictures via text of the damage and asked her to contact me. She returned my text the following day asking if she could come over that Saturday to inspect the stove. I agreed to have her over. What follows is a frustrating timeline of events detailing my attempt to get some sort of restitution or resolution in this matter: Saturday 2/25 6:28 am- Violet texts me to say she had a family emergency and will need to reschedule for a day during the week. I reply that Monday morning will be fine. (2/27) M 2/27- Violet does not show up at my house, nor does she respond to my calls or texts inquiring about whether she is planning to come over. T 2/28- Text Violet. No response. T 2/28- I had referred a friend to White Glove before this incident. She was in the process of setting up her first cleaning. After I sent my text to Violet (with no response), I asked my friend to text Violet and ask a question about her upcoming cleaning to see if Violet would respond. (At this point still giving Violet the benefit of the doubt thinking maybe there was a problem with her phone or something like that.) My friend received an IMMEDIATE response. W 3/1- Text Violet. No response. Th 3/2- Text Violet. No response. F 3/3- Text Violet. No response. 3/5, 3/6- Same. No response. 3/7- (First contact from Violet since 2/25) Violet sends me a text asking if she can come over on Saturday 3/10 to see the stove. I agree. S 3/10- Violet comes over, takes multiple photos of the stove and a copy of the receipt. Informs us they have insurance but have a high deductible ($1000) and they haven't had something like this happen for a very long time. She will need to do some research and make some calls and get back to me within about a week. F 3/17- I text Violet to check on progress since I've heard nothing. She responds on 3/18 that she will probably know something in the coming week. 3/25- I text Violet for an update. No response. 3/28- I text Violet again for an update. She responds that she has no news yet, insurance is giving them a hard time. 4/7- I text Violet for an update since I have heard nothing from her. No response until 4/11 when she texts to ask if she can come over on Saturday 4/15 to talk to us. I agree. 4/15- Violet texts to cancel. She claims has had two employees cancel on her and she needs to cover a shift. She is sorry and is "not trying to avoid me." Can she come over the following Saturday? I agree, reluctantly. 4/21- I text Violet to confirm she is coming over the next morning. No response. 4/22- No text. No show. 4/24, 4/25, 4/27, 5/3- I text Violet with NO response. As of today 5/8/17, the last contact I have had with Violet was on Saturday, April 15th, 2017. I am fairly certain at this point that Violet has no intention of rectifying this situation and I will be attempting to take this company to small claims court. However, let me list some other frustrations I've encountered in dealing with this company: 1. I do not have Violet's last name, nor an address for the company. I only have a cell phone number for Violet. My ability to contact her is completely at her mercy. She can choose to not respond to texts or answer calls and I have no recourse. My fault. 2. I'm not sure the company even has insurance or are bonded since I did not ask for proof of those things before hiring them. My fault. (They do CLAIM to have these things on their website.) 3. I'm not sure if Violet owns the company, is part owner of the company or just works for the company. After doing some online investigating I have located the name of a man listed as the owner. Not sure what Violet's relationship is to him. I will say that I have learned a big lesson about trusting someone to come into my home to do work and stand by their word. I will not be so trusting or gullible in the future. Hopefully you can learn from MY mistakes and never have to deal with a situation like the one I am currently dealing with. I'm not sure if I will be able to recoup anything from this damage caused to a basically BRAND NEW appliance that my husband and I had waited years to purchase. I am sickened by these events. So again... BEWARE OF HIRING THIS COMPANY. THEY HAVE NOT STOOD BY THEIR WORD IN THIS SITUATION. If you do decide to hire them, at least make sure you get more information than I did, such as Violet's last name, proof of insurance, owner's name, and business address so that you are not completely at their mercy if and when there is a problem!!

Description of Work: The price was fine. Two young girls showed up. One was carrying a dirty swifter (duster) to use in my house. My bathroom floors were not washed, my separate shower stall was not touched. Having 2 cleaners, I could not watch both of them at the same time in a two story townhouse. (1682 sq. feet). The bottoms of my end tables were not dusted. The gal who cleaned the downstairs; my kitchen floor was not cleaned. The stove was not wiped down. They were in my house for one hour, then left. The owner never called me to ask if I was satisfied. On top of the 75.00, I have them a 15.00 (total) tip. It is my fault I didn't walk around the house and check everything before they left. I should have, but never had to with other companies so it didn't cross my mind. I would not recommend this service.

After the second cleaning I came home and was very disappointed. This was by far the worst cleaning that I have ever had. The 1st floor (hardwood) looked like she mopped without vacuming or sweaping before hand. The second floor (carpet) was vacumed but she didnt move an empty laundry basket. She just vacumed around it. My steps were vacumed poorly. The laundry room wasnt touched. She didnt clean the kitchen counter tops, glass clean my sliding glass door or front glass door. She also didnt dust either of my daughter's rooms. So I immediately texted who I had been texting all along. Previous to this text she was very responsive. But after I kindly texted that I was not happy with the cleaning and pointed out everything that was missed I never received a text back. I tried texted a few more times and asked if someone could come out and finishor the job or if I could have my $100 back. Not one reply. I havent had my house cleaned by a company since. But if I ever do I will not pay for the service until I make sure it is completed. I felt totally jipped!
Description of Work: I had this cleaning service clean my house twice. The first time it went pretty well and so I scheduled a second claining. The second cleaning was a completely different lady and she didnt speak English very well. She kept asking me for toilet paper when she really meant paper towels.

I was able to schedule my first cleaning within a few days of my initial call. I was pleased with the work that was done and have contracted with them to clean my home every other week. So far they have been to my home three times. They are punctual, efficient and reasonably priced. I would recommend them to others.

The quality of cleaning is not stable when cleaners were changed. At the beginning the company sent Andrew and Teresa to clean my home for a couple months, and they did good job. Violette came once and did good job. However, other cleaners were not as good as them. The last time, the lady even did not clean up some trash bags.

Used the service for about a year. The house was always very presentable and fresh smelling when I came home. They cleaned the floors in our home so well, I have never been able to replicate. Upon my first cleaning after ending the service, I did realize that some things (like bathroom toilets and shower stall) could have been cleaned better but some things no one is going to care more about than you, especially if you are a neat freak. Best results were had when everything was tidy and put away in its place on the day of the cleaning. Overall, a fairly good experience.

I called the company, and they scheduled the cleaning on the 1st Saturday afternoon as I requested. I was told they would charge $75 if I have them come twice a month instead of once a month. Andrew and Teresa came around the scheduled time at 1:05pm. They worked very hard for 3 full hours. I am very please with the job, though dusting a tiny area of one of my computers could be improved, anda little too much detergent remained in a head of a stove. The toilets was very clean, including the area behind toilet bows. They dusted all the blinds and fans. I spent extra $8 for them to bring vaccum and detergents.
Description of Work: They cleaned my house of 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathroom (about 2550 sq ft).

The lady arrived 5 minutes late. She cleaned a 4 bedroom house on 3 floors (4 BR, 2.5 bath, LR, DR, 2 kitchens, family room, foyer and stairs) in about 3.5 hours. Although she did a fantastic job on the obvious things like the bathroom shower, other areas were not as meticulous, such as the top side of the ceiling fan blades, or under the bath vanities or under the couch, or the phone handset, or use the . She did mop under the bed. We also have a dog that lays on the family floor and she hand-mopped the drool marks off the floor. She also did inside the TV armoire/entertainment centers and the outside frame of the HD TVs. If I could follow her around one time and point out everything she missed, that would probably improve the results, but I'm too busy to sacrifice the time and this is the reason why we hired her periodically. I would hire her again but wish she could pay more attention to the detail.

Viola came on time and stayed and cleaned for three hours. I will admit that the house was kind of a disaster, but it was so nice after she left. I had been quoted a price of $65, but couldn't believe when she was done that it wasn't going to cost more because of all the work to be done, but that was the price. She was nice, professional, spoke enough English to understand and be understood and my house felt so much better after she had finished. I have hired the company to come clean once a week. This was my second week and Viola came back and was once again great. She was again here for three hours, but because I had kept up better, she was able to do more deep cleaning, like the grout in the shower. I can't think of many ways to spend so little money that make such a big difference.

On the day the cleaning service was scheduled, no one showed up at the scheduled time. I waited about 20 minutes and called Violette. I got her voicemail. About 30 minutes after contacting Violette she returned my call. She stated that she had me scheduled for Wednesday instead of Tuesday. I know mistakes happen but also know this wasn't my mistake. I can't schedule cleaning on Wednesday because I'm not even available on Wednesdays. Violette was apologetic but unfortunately not showing up doesn't work for us. Additionally, the price quoted was half the cost of most of the competition so I was skeptical how this company could pay 2 people for multiple hours and only charge $80. I will not be contacting this service again and wouldn't recommend them to my friends or family.
Description of Work: I called to request and schedule cleaning for a three bedroom 21/2 bath townhome. I scheduled over a week ahead of time to clean up after hosting family for a long weekend. I was quoted $80 for two cleaning people to complete the job. They were not going to bring their own cleaning supplies or vaccum, I was providing it because there was an additional cost.

We have been working with White Glove for over 3 months now and have had a very good experience. We have a large dog and the cleaning people work very well with him. Typically they come while we are not home, but there have been a couple times where we were home. They were very professional and expedient. They have always been able to perform any special things we have asked of them.

Contacted White Glove Cleaning Service for an estimate on a move out cleaning a week prior to the required date. Was provided with a quote over the phone and confirmed the date and time needed. Two people showed up on time on the scheduled date and even brought slippers with them to change into once inside the house. They were very quick and efficient, and did a great job. I would definitely use them again, and also for a regular cleaning.

THEY ARE VERY NICE TO WORK WITH & THE WOMEN WHO ACTUALLY DO THE WORK ARE POLISH & DON'T SPEAK TOO MUCH ENGLISH. YOU GENERALLY GET THE SAME PERSON EVERY TIME, BUT SOMETIMES DO NOT, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE AN "UNUSUAL" SCHEDULE (FOR EXAMPLE, FOR A TIME I WAS HAVING CLEANING EVERY THIRD WEEK OR EVERY MONTH, & IT'S HARD TO GET THE SAME HOUSECLEANER EVERY TIME UNDER THOSE TERMS). THE CLEANING IS QUITE GOOD & REALLY PRETTY FAST. ONCE IN A WHILE YOU HAVE TO ASK FOR MORE ATTENTION TO A DETAIL, BUT MOST OF THE TIME I CALL TO MAKE A SPECIAL REQUEST, NOT TO REDRESS AN ISSUE. I HAVE TRIED A COUPLE OF TIMES TO HIRE MORE THAN ONE PERSON AT A TIME TO DO A SPECIAL JOB, BUT THAT SEEMS HARD FOR THEM TO GRASP & SCHEDULE. IN GENERAL, IT'S EASY TO REACH VIOLET, THOUGH IT'S OFTEN VIA HER VOICE MAIL. SHE DOES RETURN CALLS ASAP, THOUGH.
