The work performed was excellent. The maids were very kind and did an amazing job. We have no complaints about the work that was performed. The only issue we had was with the price. We were told the work would take between 1.5 and 2 hours. They finished right under the two hour mark. The quote that was given was between $190 and $290. In the end we were charged $340. Next time I require house cleaning I’m going to shop around more.
Description of Work: We just needed a good spring cleaning of the house.

Response from The Maids of Richmond
Hello, We are pleased that you were happy with the quality of the work, and are surprised that you gave us a B rating. We're sorry for any confusion regarding the price and wish you had taken the time to contact the office to discuss the perceived pricing issue. We reviewed your email quote and the subsequent telephone quote that you requested. Both quotes state an estimate for two hours of cleaning with a discount of $25 off of a two hour clean. The hourly rate for the team of four people is $170 per hour. It took the team two hours to clean your home. You were only charged $315, as reflected on your credit card statement.

I would tell someone that they are efficient, dependable, and the price is appropriate for the services. The workers are very professional. There is a mild language barrier, but they are very professional.

I hired The Maids to do a move in cleaning for our new house. Setting everything up was very easy, and I chose to go with them because they said they pay attention to detail and clean where others skip. They called the day before to remind me of the appointment and showed up on time. Our power actually had not been turned on yet, so I understood they wouldn't be able to vacuum and some parts of the house may be harder to clean without lights. However, areas of the house that were well lit (they came early in the morning and our house has plenty of natural light) did not get cleaned. The cupboards were sticky, ceiling fans and window sills were not dusted, etc. Overall, they did a good job in cleaning the house, but I was just expecting a deeper cleaning from the price they charge and since I had requested a move in cleaning - not just a general cleaning.

Hello Ms. [Member Name Removed], We are very sorry that you could not experience our usual quality at this move in cleaning. Having power plays a big part of our cleaning process since vacuum it's a valuable function that was completely missed from your cleaning. Our vacuum person will vacuum all ceiling fans, vents, carpets, cob webs, blinds, wood/ tile and vinyl floors and if there is upholstery, we will vacuum those too. We damp wipe baseboards, window sills and door ledges but depending on the job sometimes we even vacuum first and then damp wipe also. Please understand our position and we hope you will consider using our services again. Thank you, Daniela Thiele

They are more expensive than other services, but their workers are more proficient and thorough. They send a team of ladies, and with two of the three teams, I had excellent results. With the third team, I noticed large areas of kitchen cabinet exteriors had not been cleaned and I sent photos to the office. They had another team out there the next day to resolve the issue. They were responsive to my requests, with the exception of I expected to get a follow up or confirmation call the night before the service and that did not happen. The manager of their office seemed a little flakey about returning calls, but the office staff was excellent. They did seem to be having some phone issues, so maybe it was just bad timing.

On time, very convenient, and exceptionally thorough. Yes, The Maids are more expensive than other cleaning services in Richmond and they take longer to complete their cleaning, but you get what you pay for and nothing is left unclean. This is the only service I've used that A) consistently and thoroughly cleans floors; B) cleans baseboards; C) moves objects to clean around and underneath them.

I have been a customer for almost two years. I am so impressed with the service and professionalism of the cleaning service provided by The Maids. I started with them when my husband and I both had cancer & treatments and couldn't keep up with the housework. They come in once a month, sanitize the bathrooms and do an amazing job of cleaning, including the microwave! Beds are made, railings are wiped down - it is a thorough cleaning. The house even smells clean when I come in. Service has had the same high quality every time they have cleaned. I highly recommend this service to anyone who wants a group who is excellent and trustworthy.

The Maids sent a 4-person cleaning crew to do the service. They showed up 20 minutes late which irritated me because I had 3 hours max to devote to the cleaning. I have 3 bedrooms (two of which are never used so they only required a light dusting, at best). There are two full baths and a half bath. I do have hardwood floors throughout which can be a pain to clean. At the 1:30 mark, they had only cleaned 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and half of the kitchen. They hadn't even started on the floors which is the only thing that I really wanted them to focus on. When I pointed out that they need to hustle, one girl pointed to the trim on top of the door frame to show me how clean it was. *blank stare* Who cares about the tops of door frames??!! When time was up, they had rushed through a floor sweep and mop. They never even touched the living room, the guest bath or the powder room!! FOUR people couldn't clean a house in 2 hours??!!...a house that wasn't even that dirty to begin with? When I called to complain they apologized and knocked $60 off the $360 bill. That doesn't even begin to fix the issue. So, I spent the weekend cleaning a house that I paid $300 for someone else to clean?? Unacceptable! While they were all pleasant, I think the issue is time management. I honestly have no idea what they were doing upstairs for so long. Regardless, I would NEVER use them again. Be warned.
Description of Work: Hired The Maids for an initial cleaning with hopes of using them for on-going weekly cleaning. They were tasked with cleaning my 2300 sq ft two story house. It should be noted that I live alone, I work full-time and I have only a cat as a pet.

Response from The Maids of Richmond
We are sorry to hear this member had a poor experience with our service.We did get there 20 minutes later than planned, which occasionally happens due to circumstances beyond our control such as traffic. We apologized for this. The original estimate for the home was 2 - 2.5 hours, and we explained that this is only an estimate & it may take more time to clean depending on the level of cleanliness of the home. When the appointment was made with us, we were never told that we needed to be out within 2.5 hours. The member told us of the time limitation after we had arrived at the home. If we knew in advance what our customers' needs were, we could have worked with them to find a solution. Had we been informed of the time constraints, we would have found a different time or day that better accommodated the member's schedule, so that we could have fully cleaned the home. Our cleaning system requires our team members spread out throughout the house to complete whichever cleaning function each member is assigned to (kitchen, bathrooms, dusting, vacuuming) in the most efficient way possible. Dusting one room while vacuuming another ensures that the cleaners are not running into each other & slowing each other down. Our crew synchronize their tasks to finish the home at the same time. After an hour and a half of cleaning, it was clear the team would need more time to finish the home, bringing the total cleaning time to the 2.5 hours estimated, perhaps 3 hours. Our Field Manager asked for more time and we were told we would not have the time to completely finish cleaning the home. When we were told we had only half an hour to finish a 1.5 hour job, we asked what priorities were most important and were told "the living room, the guest bath or the powder room" were at the bottom of that list. We did clean the rooms at the top of your list in the time left to us. We believe that the root cause for this member's poor experience was a lack of communication. We apologize for our role in the lack of communication.

I've been very happy with the service I've received from The Maids, both in my current home and previously in an apartment on the West End. The Maids bring a four-person cleaning team and crank through my home in about an hour. The cleaning is always very consistent and I've never noticed any corners cut. The Maids are a bit pricier than some of their competitors but I'm happy to pay more for a thorough cleaning.

I have used The Maids for more than 4 years. The team always arrives within the given time frame and does a wonderful job. I get service on the shared living spaces, kitchen and all baths in my home. One day I returned home before the team was finished and I saw that not only was my floor vacuumed but also the door frame! I have to say this company has been so flexible with my families varying schedule. I have never had a problem rescheduling service and the company is prompt with returning messages. Caren and Daniella are professional and polite on the phone and work hard to accommodate my requests.

They did a very good job! They were friendly and quick and did a good job. They even did it at short notice. They worked and coordinated to make sure they got done what I needed done. Pricing was about what I expected. They were there early.
Description of Work: The Maids of Richmond did a clean out for us when we moved out of our house that we were renting. The house was emptied of furniture. I guess, they consider it like a move out special kind of thing where they come in and clean out everything like all the surfaces, the floors, walls, windows, cupboards and refrigerator; they did everything.

I had initially requested a quote online. The lady I spoke to when making the arrangements for the cleaning asked me where I lived (my zip code). She told me they don't service that area, however, on their website, my zip code is listed. She said they would do a one time cleaning. I had selected them because they had advertised "a ridiculously, thorough cleaning." That is not what I received. Overall, the house was cleaned, but there were several areas that had not been taken care of. My office copier machine had not been touched, you could see the dust all over it as well as other areas in there were missed. I noticed additional places in the family room (like lamps that had not been dusted). Not all of the trash cans has been emptied either. I assumed someone would call me after the cleaning to check to see how it went, but I never heard from anyone. I don't believe this cleaning is worth the extreme price they charge.

These people do an exceptional job cleaning my house in a quick and efficient way. They pay special attention to a different room each time and do a good job go protecting my belongings. They rarely break things and if they do they own up to the mistake and reimburse me for replacement. They are flexible when vacation causes me to need to reschedule.
