The maids were late both times they came to clean. I was given a window of time that they would arrive not a definite time. They missed many items that were specifically written down on estimate with owner. I contacted the owner about this, met with him again to go over what was missed. A maid was sent out to take care of those items noted.

They were very good. I was very happy with them. They had 2 of them that came out here and the cleaning wasn’t 100% but I think it’s because they were probably exhausted with the mess I have. They are trustworthy and friendly and that’s a big plus. Neighbors around me may not have to file their services but I have had.

Every surface in the house was thoroughly cleaned. I struggled to find even a spot of dust or dog hair. That was another huge plus - my dog sheds A LOT and it is very difficult to stay on top of it. There wasn't a single hair anywhere after they were finished. That's enough for an automatic A+ in my book. The thorough kitchen and bathroom cleanings were just icing on the cake from my perspective. Everything was cleaned in a timely manner. Zero complaints.

We wanted the blinds vacuumed and there were clear instructions ahead of the appointment on doing that but they instead blew dust all over the house. Also the vacuum they used was old and did not work well. The service did not meet our expectations.

Dear [Member name removed], Thank you for your feedback on your service last year. We contacted you the day after your service to followup but did not receive a call back from you. This was a difficult job for our team because there were so many areas within each room that you requested that we not clean. Because you opted to have only partial parts of the rooms cleaned as apposed to a complete cleaning room by room, you would have still seen dust in areas. I understand that so much time has passed now that this response may be irrelevant. However, if we can help you with this issue or anything in the future, please feel free to call us. Many Thanks, Hope Hand-I-Maids 804-330-0270

Intake was friendly, timely and w/o incident. Attention was detailed and organized during "walk-a-bout"to determine priorities and needs. Assigned workers arrived on time and went to work. One woman left early but other was most pleasant and stayed as promised. Woman who left early broke picture frame glass while "dusting". While "dusting", sconce in dining room was brought down (after 12 years hanging in same place).Same woman said it wasn't broken and that I could put it back up. It is a complicated item that I will have to wait on. Blinds in dining room were left open. Large picture above fireplace was left incredibly askew and I am afraid to fix it. I will need help. Cobwebs were left in a room by "duster". Admittedly house had not been detailed in a while but I had higher hopes for this cleaning. Pehaps it needs more work. Second floor wasn't touched, "not enough time". I must express my confusion at all the "damage" caused by "dusting" - with a dusting apparatus! I am of the opinion that items were not treated properly and rather. just swiped at, causing unnecessary movement of these items. In all I may have been overly optimistic but I am still dismayed.
Description of Work: "Spring cleaning". Downstairs rooms only. Four hours w/work performed by two women.

Thank you for taking the time to review your experience during your recent Spring Cleaning. April left a voicemail message for you yesterday to make arrangements to drop off a replacement piece of glass for your picture frame. Our Cleaning Associates make every effort to take care when cleaning the items in your home. Because we hand -dust with a cloth, sometimes these things happen. But when they do, we make every effort to replace or repair items as mentioned above. I apologize that the picture was left askew. Cathy (your lead Cleaning Associate) mentioned that you had told her your Grandson would be coming to fix that because it had been askew for some time now. That's why she didnot attempt to straighten it herself. Please return April's call (804-330-0270) when you get a chance so she can discuss these items as well as answer any questions you may have regarding the cleaning time. The second Cleaning Associate had to leave because she had only arranged to stay for the agreed 4 hour cleaning and was unable to work over. The total cleaning time for your appointment was 8.78 man hours. You were not charged for the additional time the team worked over the purchased 8 man hours. They made every effort to get through as much of your home as they could; but as explained during the walk-through; a home of your size usually takes up to 10 - 16 man hours to complete a Spring Cleaning. We would be happy to scheduled a second appointment to clean the area that was not covered by your Big Deal certificate. Thank you again for trusting us to care for your home cleaning. We look forward to hearing from you soon. Have a blessed Thanksgiving holiday!

They showed up when scheduled. The ladies that came out were very pleasant and thorough. My house is medium to large in size and I have 2 dogs. Needless to say, it can be a challenge to keep clean as my wife and both work. They did a good job and we were generally pretty pleased. I would have liked them to empty the small trash cans in the rooms that cleaned and they seems to miss the top edge of the upstairs tub. Those things were generally small and would not prevent me from hiring them again, or recommending them in the future.
Description of Work: Deep clean of 4 hours. We selected certain aspects of the house to focus in. They came out and did a pre-clean assessment and laid out what they could do.

That service turned out great. Two house cleaners came out and they were here for a long time. They brought their own cleaning supplies. They cleaned the floors, bathroom, kitchen and general housecleaning. They were super, helpful, on time and got back with me. Everything went as smoothly as possible; I even hired them back.

They did a great job! We have a small house but we still paid the $159 for the Angie's List deal. But ti was worth it as they did a wonderful job of cleaning up the hair from our 8 rescued animals and my husband and I! Very clean staircase, fridge, base boards, bathrooms, and our disgusting couch is no longer disgusting! I plan to use them quarterly for this. Michelle came out to access the job prior and she is a true professional. Manager April was very responsive and Cathy and Jenny did a wonderful job.

After reading reviews, I decided to try this company for house cleaning. I called, left my name and telephone number on the voice mail and it is two weeks or more later and I still have not been contacted. Unfortunately, no service was provided because they did not want my business but did not have the decency to tell me they were too busy or they just didn't want to do it. Who knows why?

Dear [member name removed], I am so sorry that you did not receive a phone call back. After some research, I was able to find the record of your message last week on June 18th. We handle a very high call volume each day and do our very best to return every phone call within 24 hours. Your address falls outside of our service area, however, that doesn't mean that we would not have called you to let you know. Please excuse our oversight......I have spoke to our Office Manager about your missed call and your feedback will only help in the future. Best of luck to you in finding a service provider to care for your home in the Chester area.

We really liked our experience with Hand-I-Maids. April was always easy to reach and work with. When we had an issue with one of our cleanings, it was very quickly addressed and I was pleased with how it was handled. They worked really well with our schedule, especially since we had in- home child care at the time and an infant nap schedule to juggle! I was sad when we moved out of their service area and would totally use them again!

Very disappointed in our service. We bought the pre-paid offer which of course doesn't cover our sized house. We agreed on an additional sum to do the whole house. There were 2 ladies that showed up, as agreed. One of the two worked at a snails pace and it went about 3 hours longer than they thought it would. That would have been fine if the work was done well. A spring cleaning was advertised as a full house deep clean. I lost count of how many horizontal surfaces were not touched. Also, we were told that "we are a move and dust everything kind of company." Well, our book cases didn't get touched! Our intention was to hire them afterwards on a regular basis. No chance. We have had 4 different companies come out and quote since then and it was embarrassing that during our walk-thrus, each found additional huge dust areas that weren't touched as well as parts of our MASTER SHOWER that weren't even cleaned. Finally, we were supposed to also get a call the next day for a follow up on how it went and now we are 4 days out and I still haven't heard from someone. This was a borderline F grade and I am extremely unhappy right now!

Dear [member name removed], We are very dismayed to hear that you were unhappy with your spring cleaning. Our office manager did mentioned that she spoke to you today and that you declined accept our 100% guarantee offer to come back to view and re-clean the areas of your concern. I understand that it may be inconvenient to take the time to have us visit again. It is very difficult to address these concerns without seeing the areas, however I will share with you the feedback from our Manager, Michelle. We were aware that 1 of the cleaners was a little slow, however her work is usually very good. We did try to compensate for her lack of speed by having our Field Manager (and most efficient, thorough cleaner) lead the team. We also went over the cleaning time you were charged for and did not charge you for the overage. Regarding the shower area: Michelle said that you had requested to use the shower while we were still working in that room. Were your comments about the shower from observations before we returned to complete that room? Michelle confirmed that she checked the entire bathroom before leaving that afternoon and did not observe any unfinished work in the shower area. Regarding the bookshelves; we do promise to "pickup and move" when we dust with the exception of books on a bookshelf. Michelle cleaned the built in bookshelves in the upstairs hallway herself; she reported removing all items and even washing & drying the bookshelf before putting the items back. There is also a bookshelf in your office that was brought to my attention. She confirmed that she did remove all trophies and pictures to dust. They also hand-washed the wood floors in that room and the dining room to be sure there was no dust or pet hair left. We normally only mop these areas. We thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We do make it our top priority to always "over-deliver" on our promises and I'm sorry you feel that we under-delivered. It would be very helpful if you find the time to share with us where you found these "untouched" areas. Michelle was very confident that she checked behind all areas of the house and she was very surprised that you were displeased; especially because [member name removed] told them they did an "excellent job". Although Michelle has never received a complaint and guarantees her work; I know that your perception of the service is what matters. Any additional information you could share to help us understand why you feel the service you received deserved a "D" rating would be very much appreciated. We would like to still extend the offer to visit your home again this week to correct any work that you feel wasn't done well. Lastly, you mentioned that you did not receive a followup call. April did call and leave a message Monday (2 business days after the cleaning). She normally calls the next day, so I apologize if she called later than you expected. Again [member name removed], thank you for reaching out to us. We would be happy to discuss or show you every cleaning task that was performed in your home and turn your unhappy experience into a great one if you'll give us the opportunity. Warmest Regards, Hope Swinter Operations Manager 804.330.0270

I do realize the inconvenience it has caused you even though I offered to reschedule the appointment while we were on the phone. I understand how upset you were that I had disrupted your schedule for the day and you had every reason to be. We pride ourselves on being prompt and timely during estimates and cleaning appointments, but we did drop the ball on this one. Please accept my deepest apologies and if I can assist you in any way, please let me know. Warmest Regards, April Stevens Office Manager

The spring cleaning provided was excellent. The two cleaners spent 4 hours and cleaned everything from top to bottom. We have hardwood floors and oriental rugs, and both were satisfactorily cleaned. The bathrooms have never looked so clean. The biweekly service has been equally satisfactory. They follow the special requests, follow regular instructions. The discussion of price and visit to the home before the first cleaning was very professionally organized.
