"The crew was fast, maybe too fast...left cigarette butts on the roof, lawn, bushes, everywhere, and nails too. Fascia was "wavy" in many places, some wasn't completed, the guy running the crew left them there to finish - IN THE DARK, we gave them as many headlights we could find. Have been trying to get resolution since September. Some phone calls were returned, "will be out next week" haven't seen anyone and have been ghosted since the beginning of January."

Although there are no set rules for tipping house cleaners, you may want to consider tipping from 15% to 20% of the cost of house cleaning, or up to 25% if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the cleaner’s policy or preference for tipping.
There are several things to know before hiring a cleaning service to do any work on your home.
What services do they offer?
Do they work alone or with a company?
Do they have any references you can check?
Do they conduct background checks on employees?
What is their schedule and availability?
When can they get you an estimate?
Do they have insurance?
Do they offer a guarantee?
Do they bring cleaning supplies and equipment?
Do you need to be home when they clean?
Is there a written contract?
Can they be available for emergencies and how much do they charge?

Deep cleaning, which may include window washing, cleaning under and behind furniture, and polishing surfaces that are harder to clean can cost from $200 to $400.
