RENT-A-YENTA HOUSE CLEANING

The owner was extremely professional over the telephone and the two cleaners who came to the house were both very nice and professional. They did the job very well and in a short time frame. I also liked the fact that Rent-A-Yenta bills for partial hours and that it provides it's own tools and supplies. I would definitely use them again, but now that I am recovered, I really like to clean my own house as a deterrent to being a couch potato. Very nice service!

Three cleaners showed up on schedule and immediately got to work. All looked good when they finished up. They also vacuumed the rug even though I noted it would not need to be done as I was having a carpet cleaner come in to do a more thorough job. But the carpet looked good enough that I was tempted to pass on the carpet cleaning (but decided not to as I assume the carpet cleaner would be more antiseptic and appropriate for a new tenant). Would definitely consider hiring them again.

Response to my email was within a few hours! I love the clever yiddish greeting and the fun website. Owner was super pleasant to deal with. I like the fact that you can set your maximum price/hours and specify your cleaning priorities. Two women arrived (English-speaking) and got right to work! The reason I am giving a "B" is that my hardwood floors looked really dull because of whatever product they used and after the master bath floor (river rock) was not thoroughly clean. I found hairballs in the corners and it just didn't get all that clean. Otherwise, ok!

I have had Renta-Yenta come to my house for about two months. I expected there to be a learning curve. However, even after several notes being taken by them, and reviewed by us both and the Roan, they still missed stuff. Obvious stuff such as taking the trash out - even though it was on their list and my check off list. Dont get me wrong, the ladies were very nice. But I was not paying for nice, I was paying for my house to be dusted, and the trash to be taken out... Roan said I should just roll my eyes, and be grateful that I didnt have to do the whole house. I am not paying nearly $200 to roll my eyes! There is no guarantee they offer for missed tasks. They charge way too much for me to be grateful for missed work.

Reasonably well. No one is perfect. The few times there have been breakages or other problems, they have been very straightforward about leaving a note and trying to make things right.

The 'yentas' are always responsive, fitting us in even on short notice. They are also highly dependable, in that they actually show up as promised, speak English, accept directions, and do the work--none of which is to be taken for granted in this line of business. Management tries to send the same crew each time, schedules permitting, which is very helpful. They are not the world's greatest cleaners (some of the crew members take 'shortcuts' on the work) or the best value, but they are an invaluable fall-back for when our regular service providers are unavailable.

They do good work. They are very polite and always arrive on time. The approximate cost listed is for two people for the hour and a half to two hours of work they did. I will continue to use them for future service.

Originally they did great work for us when they started. After time the cleaning started to become worse. At that time we decided to switch to another company.

The first crew they sent out, one of the workers scratched our Viking Range, but they pointed it out to us and did the repairs. They were nice, friendly, respectful and they know what to use and how to use it and that makes a big difference! I dont have enough good things to say about them!! I would highly recommend them to others. You pay a FAIR rate for exactly what they do and nothing more, they are wonderful!!!

See above. They are our regular weekly cleaners. The job is always aces.

They communicate very well and they are prompt. They did a great job and they were on time. They got the job done quickly. They were very responsive. The price was fair. I would definitely use them again and recommend them.

As soon as the three housecleaners stepped into my house smelling of cigarette smoke, I had a feeling it was not going to go well. Our hardwood floors were vacuumed (!), blowing dust bunnies into all of the corners. Nothing was mopped, despite my telling them that the kitchen floor was very dirty. Nothing was dusted, anywhere. The bathroom was marginally cleaned, and I wiped up dirt from around the bottom of the toilet after they were through. It took the three folks 45 minutes to clean my 950 square foot house (2 bedroom, 1 bathroom), and it seems as though they were in a race to get done as quickly as possible, without any thought to the quality of work they were performing. I was extremely disappointed.

I was extremely disappointed. I made it clear verbally and in writing that I was looking for a complete and thorough clean of every nook and cranny, and that I was willing to pay for however many hours that took. The two-person crew arrived late (I did get a call from the office to tell me that would happen). One of the crew members was clearly flustered and tired, and clearly did not listen to my needs. When I went back to check, I asked them to redo several things, but there was far more that had not been done. I did not have time to wait while they completed. I continued to find places that were not cleaned, cobwebs behind doors, and so on for days after. I really needed a thorough clean. If Id had time, I would have hired another company to redo --- but there was not time before I moved in. Sad!

I have been using this company for about a year now. They come promptly and do a nice job. The first few times the house was clean amazingly. Now it is just very nice. I recommend them for quick clean ups before a move, party, or family visit. Long term is nice as it helps keep up the house, but I am starting to find dust bunnies in certain areas.

The first visit Id rate as average but boarding on below average due to the price but I decided to give them a second chance and that was a mistake. I arrived home from work excited to come in to a clean and inviting home but instead I had to search for around for what was done. I paid for 2 hours of work but It looks like the 10 minutes youd spend before a guest was coming over.

They were great. Two women came over and cleaned as a team, which greatly sped up the cleaning process. These folks are slightly more expensive than other cleaning agencies and worth every penny. They asked for a list of my priorities so they would be sure to focus on what I was interested in. They were on time and performed their work extremely well, they exceeded my expectations.

The crew of 3 was on time and very polite. Their work was mostly thorough; a few spots were missed in the dusting and cleaning of molding, but it is a big house with 13 rooms. They worked steadily for three hours and got almost everything done. I would call this company again.

They have been to my house twice and done a great job both times. On time, efficient, courteous and so is the manager in setting the schedule. It warmed my heart to see the inside of my microwave being cleaned. I look forward to their return in two weeks.

THE PEOPLE WERE VERY INTERESTING. THEY SEEM TO BE ARTISTS THAT DID THIS WORK ON THE SIDE. I WOULD PAY EXTRA TO SUPPORT THEIR ART AND ALSO THE WORK WAS FINE.

REALLY GOOD CLEANING SERVICE. ONLY CAUTION: YOU DONT GET A GRANDMOTHER/BUBBA. MY CLEANERS ARE HIP, TATOO-ED ARTISTES FROM CAPITOL HILL. THEY ARE ALWAYS ON TIME AND THEY ALWAYS CALL THE DAY BEFORE TO REMIND YOU THAT THEY ARE COMING.
