Very poorly. The woman, Gabriella, arrived 10 minutes late. When I opened the door to say hello, she essentially pushed past me (didn't even apologize for being late) and said, "where can I find good phone service? I need to call my boss". When she could not get a good line, she asked to use my phone. So, now we're at 9:20, running 20 minutes behind. I showed her all the things she needed to do and by the time she got started, it was effectively 9:25. At 11:25 she finished the first bathroom. That actually looked quite good and she did everything I asked her to do. The issue was that at this point she had 1.5 hours left to do 2 more bathrooms, both of which needed more work than the first. So, by noon, she was done with the second bathroom. Clearly inadequate. She missed several corners and areas that I hired her specifically to do. If I wanted a surface cleaning, I would have had my weekly cleaner do it. She spent approx 50 minutes on the third bathroom and while it was cleaner than before, it wasn't anywhere near where I wanted it. She also neglected to clean the tiles on the walls or inside the vanity closets. She spent the last 10 minutes of her 4 hour stay (remember, she started late and had no intention to stay an extra ten minutes), running around putting things away. She then stood there and waited to get paid. I took her around with me to inspect the bathrooms and it was only then that she confessed that she didn't clean the vanity closets in the 3rd bathroom. She was so clearly unapologetic and took no sense of ownership to her lack of performance. If you think about it, I got cheated out of 30 minutes when you add up the tardiness and early clean up. Like an idiot, I gave her a small tip anyway and sent her on her way. the thing that really upsets me is that I called NY Brite to complain and they said they would give me a $15 coupon off my next visit. First of all, they give away $15 coupons all the time. Second, what makes them think I will use them again (they should have offered a free cleaning) and third, I still haven't gotten any coupons. DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE.
Description of Work: I called them to clean 3 bathrooms in our apartment. they needed a good scrub down despite the fact that i have weekly cleaning services performed. the task was to clean the corners, behind the tub, behind the mirror (vanity closet), etc. the fee was for 4 hours of work.

Response from NY Brite Inc.
Dear Angie's list Customer service, As a manager at NYBrite I am periodically checking previous jobs to make sure our customers are 100% satisfied. Checking our Angie's List's profile, I have notice this F reviewed by Member and would like to comment on it. After reading about your complaint resolution policy, I was surprised that we never heard from your company to give us an opportunity to resolve this matter. We did the job on Aug 20th, 2012 and talked to Member right after. She expressed her dissatisfaction from the work done and we immediately apologized and offered to send a supervisor to fix it to her satisfaction, which is according to our policy. She refused saying that she already fixed it herself. We then offered her $15 discount which she excepted (we do not send a coupon, but mark a credit on her file, as she used us a few times before with no other issues). We considered this issue resolved and was surprised to receive a letter from her the next day. We immediately replied, apologizing again for her dissatisfaction and asked her to contact our office to resolve this matter to her satisfaction. We never heard back from her and now I see this review on your site. I've enclosed a copy of our response for your review. As a company who provides high quality cleaning service in Manhattan for the past 23 years, we value our customers and would like to resolve each and every incident. We would be happy if you will help us with this issue. please contact me at 212-763-0042 or at office@nybrite.com to resolve this issue. Yours, Marcin Troyan, NY Brite, Inc. Copy of email sent on Aug 21st, 2012: Dear Member, With great concern and regret I received your e-mail outlining the problem you had with our service. First and foremost, on behalf of NY Brite I would like to personally apologize for your inconvenience. I'm sorry that you received service that first of all prompted you to contact us with a complaint and second to give us a bad rating on Angie's list. I spoke to Gabriella and she admitted that she didn't properly estimate time needed to clean every bathroom, that she was in a rush to finish the job which in effect caused her to not being very thorough. I agree that on this occasion our service has not been to the high standards we aim to achieve. During our conversation over the phone I offered you free of charge appointment with one of our supervisors to fix whatever wasn't done properly and my apology for Gabriella's behavior. I regret any inconvenience and frustration that this experience has caused you. I know that now it will be very difficult if not impossible to change your perception about our services - but if you would consider changing your mind please contact us anytime. best regards, Marcin Troyan
