Unfortunately, after two very poor experiences with this company and ultimately having my concerns ignored by the owner, I feel I need to share our experience.Our first experience was in February when we moved into our home. Our leasing/management company hired this company to deep clean the house prior to move-in, so we did not personally select or hire them. When we arrived, however, the condition of the house was extremely disappointing. I contacted our management company and sent photos documenting what had been missed.Ryan, the owner, subsequently reached out to me directly. He acknowledged that the cleaning was not up to his company’s standards, told me the cleaner responsible had been let go, and kindly offered to have the house re-cleaned at no charge.At the time we were surrounded by moving boxes, and I found out I was pregnant just a few days later, so unpacking took longer than anticipated. I ultimately reached back out in July to take him up on his offer and schedule the re-clean for August. By then I was seven months pregnant and specifically wanted the house thoroughly cleaned before houseguests arrived and we hosted my baby shower.I genuinely appreciated Ryan honoring an offer he had made months earlier and hoped our first experience had simply been an isolated issue.Unfortunately, the re-clean was somehow even less thorough than the original. I wouldn’t even consider what was done a basic clean, much less a deep clean.Window sills were untouched and blinds barely dusted. Kitchen cabinet fronts had not been wiped down. Bathroom fixtures were missed, and one bathroom was not cleaned at all. Most tabletops, dressers, lamps and other surfaces remained visibly dusty. Ceiling fans were not dusted, and baseboards were barely touched despite being something I had specifically mentioned.The floors were also haphazardly cleaned. The dining room was untouched, as was most of my husband’s office. Although he was working, I explicitly told the cleaner she was welcome to clean around him. She spent approximately five minutes in the room, yet the floor wasn’t vacuumed, surfaces weren’t wiped down, the mirror wasn’t cleaned, and everything remained visibly dusty.There were initially two cleaners, but one left after roughly an hour and a half. Our home is almost 3,300 sq. ft., and considering this was a whole-home deep/re-clean specifically intended to correct a previous inadequate service, I was shocked by how little time and effort were spent. The entire cleaning lasted only about three hours.I then had to go behind them and clean the missed areas myself at seven months pregnant, with houseguests arriving the following day and my baby shower that weekend — exactly what I had hoped to avoid by having the house professionally cleaned.Afterward, I sent Ryan a lengthy but respectful message detailing the issues, thanked him multiple times for honoring his original offer, attached photos of what had been left behind, and offered to speak by phone if he wanted to discuss it further.I never received a response.That was ultimately the most disappointing part. Mistakes happen, and I actually had a very positive impression of Ryan after he proactively reached out following the first cleaning and offered to make things right. I gave the company another opportunity for exactly that reason. Unfortunately, the corrective cleaning was no better — and in many respects was worse. When I politely brought it to his attention, I was completely ignored. Part of me wonders if the lack of care from Ryan and the cleaning team comes from the fact that it was done for free.I waited before leaving this review because I genuinely do not enjoy negatively affecting a small business. However, after two experiences that fell incredibly far below professional cleaning standards, followed by no response whatsoever to my final message, I feel it is fair for prospective customers to know what our experience was.
