Description of Work: I have a 2 bedroom apartment, they asked me to prioritize the jobs I wanted them to do and they followed everything to a "T". Granted, 3 hours was really not enough time to do the whole apartment, but it was so nice to come home and find the majority of it done. Also, the person was a little late, but keep in mind that this was due a problem on the subway, their employees use the public transportation system. Must I must note that even though this is a Brooklyn-based company, they willingly traveled up to the Bronx (Riverdale) to my apartment.

Description of Work: I used the company for 2 visits so far (date is approximate). Lovely person came to clean and worked continuously; they sent the same person both times. She was very helpful and did everything asked for. The punctuality, although late once, was fine. She maintained contact and in NYC you have to allow for train issues. The beginning phone call is tough because these companies are more concerned with legalities/liability than you; I can see where people are put off by it. You want to have a company that is just as concerned about your side/needs as theirs and this is not how it feels at first. Having said that, they did inspire enough confidence that I expect that they would be worth the extra money going forward. I do plan to use them again. I just think they need to make clear the benefits of paying more money for same work done for less elsewhere.

Description of Work: The cleaning is fabulous. The quality, courtesy and knowlepolicies and ptocedues are questionable, at bet. . When I called this am to reschedule my appointment for Friday, I was told they needed 48 hours' notice. I noted to the phone receptionist that Friday at 10:30 am is 48 hours away from Wednesday at 8:30 am Then I was told that I would be allowed this cancellation this one time. I asked why when u just said 48 hours notice. Meanwhile I read in one of the reviews on this site that cancellation was easy. Evidenttly not in my case. Furthermore a month ago, the service called me to cancel my regularly scheduled appointment because the cleaning person's "regular client" needed her on my day. Really? Am I not a regular customer? I consented to this "less than 48 hour " notice. The office policies and procedures are very loose and are interpreted to the benefit of the owners.

Absolutely excellent and thorough service. Naiomi our cleaner was running a little late and the service called us promptly to let us know there was a delay on the train and that she was running late as a result of that. She arrived 10 min post scheduled time and really did an excellent job. There were surfaces I hadn't ever seen my reflection in before prior to this cleaning that she made shine. You get what you pay for and this investment was well worth every penny.
Description of Work: House cleaning, floors mopped and vacuumed, laundry, walls washed, counter tops and cabinets cleaned. All exposed surfaces cleaned.

When I say they thoroughly cleaned it, I mean thoroughly. I saw her on scrubbing tile and all of the grout in the bathroom...it's never been so clean. It was VERY clean. They went into every crevice. She cleaned all the kitchen cabinets, the refrigerator, the oven....she went above the cabinets, she cleaned the fan blades. It was very clean. They weren't cheap, but they were good. The place smelled very pleasant after they left. It was very clean...it was worth the money. I would give them an A plus.
Description of Work: I had them clean an empty apartment before a tenant came in.

The maid did a fantastic job the first time, and explained all the green cleaning products she was using. However, the second time, a different maid was sent over and was a half hour late and I did not have time to explain what I needed done, so I was not able to have her come in.

The company sent Ophelia to do the work and she was excellent. 14 years of living in our apartment with too much furniture left us with a lot of grime. Ophelia was completely undaunted by the job and set to cleaning the place from top to bottom. By the time she was finished, I almost wanted to move back in there. It was immaculate. She got the place so clean that we even ended up getting back more than we gave for our security deposit, because the landlord ended up giving us all the interest it made instead of keeping it for cleaning and repairs.

Georgia did a great job cleaning the apartment. Based on the experience, we set up a regular cleaning with her.
Description of Work: I bought the coupon and scheduled an appointment with Georgia. She did a great job. Afterward, before Georgia left, I spoke with the main office and set up a regular cleaning with Georgia. Prior to the next appointment, the office informed me that Georgia would be out of town for my appointment and asked if they could set up another cleaning professional. I agreed, so long as our agreement to have Georgia do our regular cleaning remained in place. They agreed. Before the next scheduled cleaning, the main office informed me that Georgia was again unavailable and asked if I would agree to have another cleaning professional come by. When I declined and asked to reschedule to a date that Georgia was available, Great Green Maid informed me that it wasn't an option and that I could have another person come or have nobody - either way, I would be charged. They then informed me that Georgia was one of their most popular cleaning professionals and given the fact that I had not set up a cleaning more regularly, I should not expect Georgia to be the one to clean our space. I informed them that I was disappointed with their bait and switch tactic and canceled immediately. I did not reschedule with another professional and was not charged.

I took advantage of a coupon and called right away. Mary took my reservation for the next day - I was in a rush. Booking was a breeze and Mary was a delight. Ophelia showed up right on time and did a marvelous job cleaning the bathrooms to get ready for an open house. She had the grout sparkling with no toxic chemicals! Mary called to confirm that everything had gone as planned, and I felt well cared-for throughout the process. I will hire them in a heartbeat whenever I need services.

Everything went better than I expected. Everyone that I had reason to interact with went over and aboveboard. This was my first experience hiring anyone for this kind of work and I have no hesitation in hiring this same company again. I have heard some horror stories from friends, but my experience was great. I'm going to share my find with them.
Description of Work: Naomi came to my apartment a half hour earlier than expected. I was in an unbelievable mess and really needed a lot of elbow grease used in the bathroom. She came through with flying colors. Naomi is a very personable young lady and extremely industrious. She was very gracious and would not even accept a cup of coffee. She was busy the whole time she was here and checked with me when necessary, but she certainly needed no supervision. I would certainly use this company again. They took very good care of me. The job was heavier than was expected and the gentleman I spoke to, Russell, stated they would be charging the discussed price, even though the job was in a higher category. Everyone connected with The Great Green Cleaning Company has treated me with professionalism and made me feel as if I am a most valued customer. As far as I am cncerned, they deserve a AAA.

This is the only cleaning company I will use. I started with them after going through a messy break up and had the most understanding people come in to help me get rid of his things. Ever since then, I have a bi weekly cleaning with the most wonderful, caring cleaners. I have 4 cats, all special needs cats (one being blind.) They are compassionate with my animals and I have no difficulty leaving them alone in their care while I am at work and feel confident that they will be taken well care of. Not only are the cleaners wonderful but the entire company. When you pick up the phone you immediately feel comfortable and the staff is very understanding and want to give you the very best service possible. They will bend over backwards to make sure you are happy, and call and follow up to ensure you are happy with your cleaning. I have used other companies, and this is the only one I will use.

The folks from Great Green Cleaning showed up on time, helped me donate a number of items instead of throwing them away, lug out a rug to the garbage, clean the partment with great attention to detail all with a smile. I gave them all a big tip but they each deserved every penny. It was a job well done and I was very relieved to have it over and done with!
Description of Work: I required a heavy duty cleaning of a elative's apartment while he was in the hospital. The apartment had not been cleaned in 15 years and was in disgusting shape. The cleaning service needed to help me clean everything from top to bottom and help me move furniture into the middle of the room so the apartment could be painted the enxt week. I cannot underdescribe the amount of cleaning that needed to be done in one day.
