They were very nice on the phone, informative, and prompt. But the cleaning unfortunately left much to be desired. We were excited because they explained that they would be following a list of a bunch of specific points to clean, and they sent 3 women to clean our home on a Monday afternoon. But when we came home it wasn't up to the standards they had stated. Everything was streaky, the floors weren't clean or shiny. The making of the beds was sloppy. Only one of the ceiling fans appeared to have been dusted. The electronics on the entertainment center weren't dusted. There was still lots of dog hair underneath chairs and table legs. The dirty dishes that had been in the sink were piled treacherously on a cutting board. The babys bouncer, pillows, rocker, etc were not put back where they belong, and instead were just set in the middle of the living room. The baseboards were still dusty. One of the bedroom floors still had spots and dust. The bathroom mirror was streaky. I wanted to like them because they were so nice! But we will Not be asking cottage care back.
Description of Work: We got the full first time cleaning service with extra for the bedroom and living room floors. Kitchen, bathroom, living room and three bedrooms.

Description of Work: The company failed to show up on day of appointment nor did I receive a call from the company. I called them 2 hours after appointment time and they said that they didn't have me in scheduled for appointment or any day. Four days later I get a call from the Supervisor of the regional office and she stated that no one took the faxed order from the corporate office therefore the appointment was missed. We rescheduled an appointment and they arrived early and at a reduced rate. Two girls arrived only performed assigned chores as I walked through the house explaining what I expected. However, the items that the company claimed were to be cleaned and performed I felt wasn't done. The skill of cleaning was marginal but better than nothing. I do think if they knew my house and performed the cleaning service that they promised it would have been a better outcome. I work from home and the cleaners were loud and talkative.

Very good service. They respond quickly if anything is not up to standard. For the most part it has been a good experience and I will continue to use them. They are wonderful compared to my previous cleaners and do an excellent job. They are on time, polite, and respectful of your space.

Cottagecare is responsive to dates and time. There is a significant turnover with personnel. Sometimes things are overlooked like the top of the refrigerator.

I've used Cottage care in the past off and on. I rarely have any issues and on the rare occasion something wasn't perfect- 1 call to the office and it was rectified immediately. This time I had a few special requests due to upcoming surgery and knowing I would be out of commision and unable to perform some tasks.. and they were beyond responsive. Cannot compliment them enough.

Please see above. We are very happy with the results of their biweekly cleaning of our house.
Description of Work: We hired CottageCare to do biweekly cleaning of our home. The same two people come each time and they are thorough and careful. We appreciate having some flexibility in scheduling and they are very responsive to our need to change the date occasionally. We get a call the day before each cleaning to remind us they are coming. They use their own cleaning produces which are acceptable to us. We have a special solution for cleaning our bamboo floors and they use that at our request. They literally clean the house from top to bottom, cleaning floors, woodwork, rugs, bathrooms, and a very thorough job in the kitchen. The house is a pleasure to be in after they have been here.

Overall a very good experinece,
Description of Work: We had a rental property that needed top to bottom cleaning asap, I called Cottage Care on Wednesday and they were able to accomadate me as soon as the next day. Two young ladies came on time, well prepared. I personally thought it was a very big job but they did not blink an eye. We went over what I would like to have done and they were in agreement to stay till job was done to our liking. There were there 5 hours and did a great job, we are very pleased with thier work and would definitly use them again.

I just used them one time, they were fine, but can't afford to do that. They came in and did a fine job, and they were done, there were 2 or 3 people working, I was pleased with their work. It was not heavy cleaning; it was light cleaning, like regular routine cleaning.

I didn't go with them because it was way high. I don't have any carpeting but I have a shaggy dog and two cats and I am in a wheel chair thing. They came when I said. It is $30 an hour. The girl gets $15 and the company gets $15.

I was not home at the time they arrived but my son was there. He slept through the doorbell and the cleaning person was very patient in wating for him to wake up to answer the door. He informed me that they were extremely professional and went over everything with a fine tooth comb. I was impressed at how long the lady was there (almost 4 hours). The place looked great. They use bio-green cleaning products as well.
Description of Work: Very deep cleaning of the entire condo. Bathrooms and kitchen have never been so clean. This was their first visit and it was what they call a deep clean. I had kitchen, dining room, living room, 2 bathrooms, and 1 bedroom done.

Very thorough cleaning, especially of bathrooms. Floors and countertops were done extremely well also. The dusting was ok--it looks like they just dry dusted, though I will say she did all the extras I'm lazy about (ceiling fans, tops of stuff on the walls, etc.). It's a franchise, which means their workers must pass background checks, and they are insured/bonded, etc. When I called for an estimate, I spoke with a central operator (not someone from NWI), but she was very helpful and provided a number of different estimates based on my budget (like they'd clean X number of rooms for X price). The next day I also received a follow-up call from the Griffith manager. I'm trying out a few different services, but Cottage Care is definitely on my list for potential regular service.
Description of Work: "First-time" housecleaning of kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and master bedroom
