I like that they came in with a team and they went in and out of my house within an hour or an hour and a half. My day wasn't tied up with them. I think they are reasonably priced. They are very pleasant. I also like that they were insured.

First, she called at 9:30a on the day of our appt and said she had a cancellation and was on her way and hour and a half early. My toddler and I were still in our pajamas - but I didn't feel I really had a choice, so I let them come anyway. I returned home at noon. Here is the verbatim text I sent her after I inspected my home and was wildly disappointed. and quot; Jennifer - I just home and inspected your work, and I'm very disappointed. Nearly every single window sill is dusty, the fireplace mantle is dirty (with one streak where someone swiped around the vase and pictures), stairs are dirty (Im guessing you just vacuumed and didn't follow up with mopping), almost every single floor vent is dirty, mudroom bench is still dusty, dirty paper towels left on the master bedroom dresser, the two ceiling fans were ignored, under and top of the fridge are dirty, dust bunnies and dog food on the kitchen floor in the corner. And that's just what I noticed in five minutes. I keep my house pretty clean - so I expected a deeper clean from a crew of four coming in.and quot; Her reply was to argue with me via text and say and quot; You didn't want a deep clean,and quot; and and quot; We'll just have to agree to disagreeand quot; about the poor job they did. I did not realize dusting and cleaning visible surfaces was and quot; deep cleaning.and quot; That is just absurd. They vacuumed my hardwood floors, but didn't mop! Seriously?! She made no offer as of yet to remedy the situation. I will update if she does. I unfortunately was too trusting and gave her a check when they arrived, before the job was done. SInce I consider this job incomplete I put a stop-payment on the check while the claim is being investigated. If she makes good on properly cleaning my home, I will of course pay for it. I have photo proof of the poor work below. Interesting that the providers reply is to say call me and quot;ridiculousand quot; and that mt pictures have no truth. Take her word, or my proof. Hire Merry Maids instead of this charlatan.
Description of Work: After the initial consultation and quote I hired Jennifer to do a cleaning of my home. She seemed professional, polite, and seemed reasonable priced. I hired her to do the job.

Horrible! To date home owner has not heard from Jen or recvd itemized bill.
Description of Work: I am not the one that hired this company but I am the one who referred her from some one else. This was a 450 sq foot 1st floor that was charged 150.00 for the initial cleaning. Owner was very nice and professional 1st meeting . Boyfriend and 3 kids were sent to clean this small home. Rugs and fabric furniture did not have to be done as they were just done by a professional cleaner day before. I myself went to this home after it was "cleaned". Kitchen floor-they couldn't even move 2 water bottles to wash under them. White wooden blinds maybe hit with a sniffer, not wiped with cloth, still dusty. Small bathroom, not dusted, dust around bottom of toilet, tp hanger, shelves. Top of frig and cabinets never done. Windows never washed, glass door streaked. When home owner called Jen, boyfriend in back ground yelling he had spent 1 1/2 hours cleaning the bathroom. This bathroom is so small i could clean from top to bottom in 45min. Whole team was seen leaving car at home and walking down to the center. When Jen was asked for a itemized bill to be dropped off, she replied "She would get to it when she could and would not be dropping off, would put in mail". (This was left on answering machine).

I think they are fabulous. They did everything. They were professional and pleasant. They came in and were fast. They were trustworthy. They have insurance and everything so I just got out of their way and they let them work. The people who came in to do the work were professional and courteous.
Description of Work: Clean Xpectations comes twice a year to do deep cleaning. They did under the furniture, under the rugs, the baseboards and everything. They dusted from head to toe.

Bibbity Boppity Boo! These guys do what I can't seem to get done ever in record time, there have been occasions that I have been at home when they come and they are in and out in no time and have transformed my house from cat-fur covered, un-vacuumed, mayhem to a Better Homes and Garden magazine. Jennifer has always been able to work our needs into the schedule as we often move our monthly cleaning based on when we'll be having guests. We'll continue to work wit Clean Xpectations until I develop my own magical skills...
Description of Work: Every month the Clean Expectations team comes and cleans my house - floors, bathrooms, dusting - the stuff that when everyone in your household works over 40 hours a week never all seems to get done on the same day.

We signed a contract with Clean Xpectations, but we weren't happy with what they did the first time they came out. We might not go back with them because they're too expensive for the quality of work we got. Their vacuums did not work well and when I moved some of the things in my kitchen I found dirt underneath. I was not happy for $165 and we used to have a cleaning lady for $70 that did an immaculate job in the same amount of time. I just can't understand what happened. There were things that they did really well, but they also did things that I was really disappointed in for $165. She was very responsive and we had arranged a time for her to come, but I was out do errands and received three messages saying that she was out at my house waiting for me even though we had agreed on another time and I don't think that was very professional.

Hi Member, I am sorry you have a problem with the current market prices. Regardless we use nothing but the best commercial grade vacuums and equipment as I discussed with you during the estimate. Apparently there was a miscommunication with the time. We carry a professional manner at all times, however I do not feel that offering an alcoholic beverage at 3pm in the afternoon is professional at all. Hope you and your family can find someone to accompany your needs. Happy Holidays!

I sent out an e-mail proposal with a major timeline requirement. I heard from CE within 24hrs to set up an appointment for an estimate. CE showed up 5 minutes early - walked through the house - provided me a written estimate. Two other companies were contacted; one wanted to give a verbal estimate over the phone the other arrived 45 minutes after the time agreed on and would not provide a written estimate. Called CE to say they had the project - CE responded within 12 hrs - a date was agreed to for cleaning. They arrived on 2 October and cleaned the 900 sq ft house. It looked like a new house and ready for the interior painters to come in. It wasn't until started to move things for the painters realized that some areas hadn't come to the attention of CE. My lesson learned- need to better at defining my expectations.
Description of Work: The house needed a major deep cleaning walls, floors, ceilings etc. Clean Expectations was extremely professional. On time for the estimate appointment and the day contracted for cleaning. Overall cleaning was well done – only areas e.g. behind wall hangings, clocks, furniture were not cleaned and in all fairness I hadn’t discussed with CE owner cleaning of these specific areas. I would definitely use CE again and highly recommend them.

I'm sorry, I didn't follow the directions. All my review is in the first section.
Description of Work: When I first contacted Clean Xpectations, I had to leave a message ~ which was promptly returned. I was having 24 for Easter Dinner, and explained to Jen (owner) that I was in desparate need of a overall general cleaning. She came to look over my house, and to give an estimate. She was running a special with Angie's List Members for 20% off. I was very surprised at a price she offered to me. She had Insurance papers and referrals ready for me. I just had the sense that if she was on Angie's List, that was reference enough for me, and the price totally blew the bigger companies out of the water. For the first time having Clean Xpectations clean my house, I was very impressed with how they performed. There were four (4) cleaners, each working in separate areas of the house. The were fast and efficient. Very considerate of my elderly father, and a little dog with some fear aggression. They cleaned the Kitchen, Bathroom, Dining Area, Living Room, and 2 Large Bedrooms each with there share of knick knacks that were dusted and put back in place. Everything was done in a quick efficient manner. And, I hope to be able to have them back in a more regular basis.

I am quite pleased with their services. It is nice to welcome a group of young professionals in their own business into my home. They are trustworthy and they do a good job!
Description of Work: A very professional team of four young, friendly, and energetic cleaners comes to my home and cleans it from top to bottom in about an hour and a half. They bring their own cleaning supllies and tools except for the wood floor cleaner that I provide. They clean the bathrooms, my wood floors, under my kitchen burners, vacuum and dust throughout the house. They are very careful about not using chemicals on my wood floors and attentive to any requests that I make. They are also very punctual and quick to respond to phone calls.

The owner JT and her team have been cleaning my house every other week for about a year. The team does a wonderful job, which is a huge task with 3 cats and 1 big dog and all the fur that comes with them. The floors are always washed and vacuumed, all surfaces dusted, and the bathrooms and kitchen sparkle after their visit. JT is great to work with because, calls are always promptly returned, frequent check ins as to quality of service because JT strives for perfection. In addition, JT brings all the cleaning supplies as well as her own vacuum. I highly recommend Clean Xpectations - great cleaning at a modest price.
Description of Work: JT part owner of Clean Xpectations does a fabulous job cleaning my house. The cleaning team vacuumes and washes floors, dusts, and everything else that is necessary to make my house shine. I had an issue of pets behaving badly (peeing on the rug) JT made a special trip to pick up a product to clean the rugs. For an additional cost you can have the team clean the baseboards.

they promptly set up an estimate with us,answered the phone and had given us a complete proposal ,refferals,insurance cert. etc.,and i was still waiting for a return call from others for a week!they still work for us weekly and have for over 2 years,they always show up,the same 3 people are here every week,building a trusting relationship.very pleasent to deal with,they use proffesional equipment,supply all materials,and are very dedicated and so far every service/cleaning is like the first.
Description of Work: initially they performed a deep clean,doing all the windows baseboards etc.and then we set up a weekly service with them to keep up.from the time i called to get an estimate they returned my call within an hour,and set up an estimate for the next day,{to help fit my schedule}we have had other services in the past,but the attention to detail and reliability that clean x pectations display are above and beyond.we love to see the same faces every week and have a trusting relationship with them.we highly reccomend them to anyone looking for a cleaning service,and look forward to continuing to work with them for years to come.
