Noreen was fantastic, she was bang on time and friendly and didn't seem to mind my scattered mindedness or the fact that my slug-a-bed roommates (and their friends) were slowly trickling out of bed while she was in the apartment. This was an introductory cleaning and I discovered that I really don't know how to clean effieciently. Or thoroughly. Noreen cleaned the shower caddies... I never would have thought to do that. Ever. She gave me tips, told me what cleaning tools I was lacking that would make life easier -- brillo pads! Overall, she was a gem and I just hope I can talk the roommates into the monthly splurge...
Description of Work: Introductory housecleaning to convince my roommates that we need a house keeper (because I was tired of being the only one cleaning the apartment!). Just the common areas of the apartment - bathroom, kitchen and living room.

I needed help cleaning my apartment on very short notice- we had some unexpected construction and there was dust everywhere. And we had a guest coming in a few days. Mary, who runs the company picked up the phone, and though she was busy called me right back. And she was able to find a suitable person to clean on short notice, and on a Sunday morning. She was also flexible to help me get exactly the amount of cleaning I needed for the price for my place- it wasn't "one size fits all". I appreciate that. My apartment is tiny, and I didn't need a total deep cleaning, just some help fast!
Description of Work: Noreen arrived on time and cleaned thoroughly. She did a great job and was friendly and hard working.

The women that run it are really spectacular and just professional. I want to be able to support a woman run business that is that capable. I'll continue to use them and would refer them to others!
Description of Work: It was great! It was going to be a one time thing but then I decided to keep them on for a once a month basis.

I walked in while she was still here--the place was cleaner than it's been since...ever. She didn't just dust the easy spots, she got into the nooks and crannies of the furniture. She didn't just sweep up the dust, she wiped the baseboards. The window sills. she even dusted every aspect of my alarm clock. The stovetop. The microwave--the place smells like it's clean, and everywhere I look, it is clean. I did the old white glove test and everything. Mary answered the phone the first time I called, got me scheduled right away, and made the process simple.
Description of Work: I have a 2BR 2bath apartment, and I have two small dogs. They were to clean the place top to bottom, taking special care of antique furniture.

I'm not sure how terrible the service was since he emailed that he would use us again if I gave him a deeper discount. I declined .

Although the woman who came to clean was right on time and extremely nice, I was not thrilled with the clean and wasn't thrilled with the setting up process. There was WAY too much back and forth between me and the owner; changing of times because cleaner couldn't make it, etc. I was also taken aback when I told the owner that I was neat, but that the place needed a clean. She inferred that I was probably much dirtier than that. Even if that had been true, not really the best customer service tactic. The house didn't smell "clean" when I came home (I'm not actually sure that my floors were cleaned and when I asked about this, I didn't get an answer) and I just felt underwhelmed by the service provided. The Maids were a much better service for this sort of thing. Best Home was just fine. Not great, not terrible.
Description of Work: I had a full home clean, not anything above and beyond, but a standard clean of a two bedroom, one bath apartment.

Response from Best Home Services
Best Home Services’ goal is to make all of our customers happy and to read that our service is underwhelming was most disappointing. We take our customer comments seriously and corrective action has been taken. We have contacted the member and offered to come back at a future date for a 1/2 price cleaning from a different member of our staff. Thank you again for your valuable feedback.

Very well. Mary was very pleasant to talk to. Lots of communication. The cleaning person was also very polite and showed up right on time. When I came home, I was very pleased with the job that was done. Mary also followed up to make sure everything had gone well.
Description of Work: Full cleaning of house (first time I had it cleaned since I moved in). Inside of kitchen cabinets. Floors.

The housekeeper arrived perfectly on time, and obviously had experience cleaning. I felt very comfortable with her. She did an excellent job.
Description of Work: My apartment had not been cleaned for some time, as I had not been there. I had a four hour service to bring it back up to scratch.

The services performed were done over the course of 3 separate visits, each lasting 4 hours. The price was $109 per visit (plus tip)-- which is a bit high, but the company is licensed and bonded, and I certainly felt I could trust whoever Mary (the owner) sent to help me. I had been ill for over a year and could not keep up with cleaning, so my apt. really needed work. Also I have 5 cats, but I made it clear that whoever came wouldn't have to do anything regarding litter boxes. Luckily for me, Patsy was flexible with her schedule in order to accommodate me, and I think she is wonderful. She actually LIKES to clean, does a great job, and is a lovely person. I have a fourth visit with her scheduled and plan for her to come once a month on a regular basis. She has brought my apt. to a point where I think I can maintain it myself in between her visits.
Description of Work: Bathroom fixtures & tiles cleaned, floor scrubbed. Kitchen cleaned, including inside of fridge. Entire apt. vacuumed & dusted (this was a big project, due to lots of furniture, books & cats). Wood floors mopped. Helped with laundry.

I was happy with the overall service. One of the women ran 10 minutes late (due to transportation issues) and Mary was good enough to bring that to my attention. The women were very friendly and quiet, barely heard them. I plan to use their service again.
Description of Work: I had two women clean my apartment (three floors, each with a bathroom). The two women worked from 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM. The apartment didn't need major cleaning other than serious vacuuming on each floor, scrubbing the kitchen and bathroom floor and dusting of cabinets. They did a wonderful job in the kitchen. Both the floor and sink sparkled. All three bathrooms looked amazing. I was very pleased with the outcome.

I have used them a number of times and on a regular basis. Mary is great and is very accommodating. I have had mixed experiences with her staff, ranging from a woman who cleaned impeccably and efficiently (but who left the company) to someone who always did a good job but not completely thorough job, to someone who did a less than satisfactory job (left dust balls visible on stairways and in corners). I think it just depends on the quality of the staff-person, the luck of the draw.
Description of Work: Cleaned bedrooms, bathrooms, wood floors, kitchen and other areas in a fairly large apartment. Used the cleaning supplies (most nontoxic like Method line of products) that I requested. The job usually ranged from 5-6 hours because of the size of the place.

Mary Cavanaugh was very pleasant and helpful on the phone, and has been extremely responsive when we've communicated. We're very happy with Wilma, who comes every two weeks - although we have a relatively small apartment, we have four cats, who shed in every conceivable place, so it's quite a job keeping it under control! Mary and Wilma have relieved a lot of our cleaning stress.
Description of Work: Wilma cleaned all rooms of the house - thorough floor vacuum and cleaning, kitchen and bathroom scrubbed and surfaces cleaned. Every time she leaves, the kitchen and bathroom are much cleaner than they were when we moved in!

Bernadette was very pleasant and showed up on time, however, the cleaning was just satisfactory. There were a few (very few) bits of dirt left behind on the floors and the bathroom could have been more thoroughly cleaned. Other parts sparkled, like the kitchen counters, which were impeccable. I appreciated her work but would want a more thorough job in the future.
Description of Work: Bernadette cleaned my one-bedroom, one-bath apartment. She dusted, swept, and mopped all rooms and cleaned the bathroom and kitchen.

The contractor arrived a half hour early, and since she was scheduled for 8am, this meant that we weren't really ready for her. I showed her all of the supplies we had. She went out to buy her a few more items that she thought would help. I left to go to work and returned four hours later to pay (they require cash from first time customers). I pointed out a few other spots that needed attention, but she had done a fabulous job. The oven and shower were like new again.
Description of Work: They deep cleaned the bathroom tub, shower and floor tiles, and area around the toilet. They cleaned hardwood floors and linoleum. They deep cleaned the kitchen walls, tiles, and oven.
