A team of 3 showed up at my door and I nearly cried in relief! They immediately got busy and worked like a bee hive! My house literally sparkled and smelled wonderfully of a spick-and-span home again. I have many ornamental objects from travels around the world and many antique pieces of furniture which I had concerns about. Not to worry! Great care was taken and everything was in its place. The cleaning team worked so professionally, and I felt they really cared about my desire to have my home clean again. When they left I couldn't let them leave without a hug!! I walked around my house and just had to smile! (Carolyn, the owner, was a jewel!)
Description of Work: I hurt my back and suffer from chronic pain. Unfortunately, I was unable to keep my lovely home as clean and tidy as I had been able to do prior to my back injury. I felt embarrassed. I needed someone to clean from top to bottom... and make my home sparkle again.

We found them in our local neighborhood circular. They were local, bonded and insured. They will, if requested, do baseboards and ceiling fans. Mainly it is light housework. She will wipe down the exterior of the appliances, but not deep oven cleaning as part of the standard cleaning. They do not do linens. They were responsive when we identified our concerns. The next time the lady who came out followed through on that and there was not a lot of turnover; we always had the same person. It takes them between two and three hours to do the work.
Description of Work: I used The Dirty Work of SC for whole housecleaning. This includes dusting, mopping, vacuuming and all of the bathrooms.

Not happy with the results at all! The lady who came to my home totally missed cleaning the master suite. How can you miss one of the most important rooms in your home??? I paid extra to have the baseboards washed and cleaned, that was overlooked as well. The furniture on my sunroom was skipped and my stainless steel appliances were wiped down using pledge! The maid came unprepared with poor cleaning products and supplies or lack of. She was not professional and I found cigarette butts on my back patio. Gross...Do not use this company!
Description of Work: vacuumed, cleaned the kitchen and bathrooms, ceiling fans, dusted and moped.

The cleaners were to arrive at 12:45pm and one of them was on time. Since she didn't know what we wanted done (my roommate and I both just had knee surgery and didn't feel like running behind these ladies). We told them we needed a good cleaning in both small bathrooms and the kitchen, the floors vacuumed and mopped, the fans and lights dusted, and any clear flat surface dusted. They did clean the toilets and wiped off the counters in the bathrooms. The floors were swept but I couldn't see where they were cleaned. They swept the floors in one bedroom, the hall, the dining room, and the kitchen. We had told them they didn't have to do two other bedrooms or the living room. After doing the floors, they dusted the ceiling fans which put clumps of dust all over the place. They did NOT touch the kitchen other than to sweep the floor and use some Mop and Glo stuff on it. Spots of dirt were smeared but not cleaned. This "four hour" cleaning job too these ladies less than an hour and a half and cost me $120.00! What a waste! Angie's List let me down this time.
Description of Work: Amber Smith came out on June 11, 2013 to see what we needed done for a one-time cleaning. She listened, took notes, said it would take about four hours at $60 an hour. On June 17 two young women came out and had no idea what they were supposed to do or how much to charge. They asked if we had a checklist and I had assumed that was what Amber was doing for them when she came.

They were very good, here on time, came in and did what I asked. They were careful in the house, three people came just to do the ceiling fan. I was happy with them and I would use them again if I had a unusual cleaning request.
Description of Work: I used The Dirty Work of SC to clean a ceiling fan that was way up high that we couldn't get to.

Description of Work: As advertised. Every thing super clean. Every thing returned to its place. No slackers, they worked straight through and very respectful of property and wishes of the customer. Pleasant ladies. Not pushy about follow on business. Called when they were going to be a few minutes late. Called to confirm and book appointment. My experience was positive and would recommend them.
