"Excellent. This was very short notice and Skilled Maids responded immediately. Doris and Maria make a great team -- skllled, focused, good communicators and upbeat all day long. There was more to do in a day than could possibly get done, but they quickly established priorities and accomplished much more than those. The house is clean and sparkling."

"We have used Vania's business for almost 4 years now, I believe. Her teams of two ladies are friendly, efficient, respectful of our needs, and do a good job. This is not highly detailed nor deep cleaning, just regular, maintenance cleaning, but they do also offer services like cleaning our the refrigerator - we just haven't done that ourselves. The team has been pretty consistent, too, not a revolving door of women as with some businesses. The teams' English is minimal, but usually enough to communicate when they are here, and if there is anything more complicated to convey, I can text Vania and she will pass the message along to the crew. Vania herself is excellent - she is very responsive and great to work with. When a team member broke a small bowl I had on my vanity, she came to our house (after scheduling a time) to apologize in person and to ask for general feedback as to how the ladies were doing. I really appreciated that. Of course she also offered for us to take the price of the bowl out of their fee for that visit. Overall, I would highly recommend Vania's Extra Green. They are easy to work with, reasonably priced, and keep our house looking good (even during a pandemic)."

"Ana and her team were on time for my cleaning service. They were thorough and cleaned very well. They dusted everywhere. My house was clean from top to bottom, all 3 floors. They were very professional and finished in a shorter amount of time than allotted."

"It wasn't an easy job and they did some work very well. But they weren't interested in learning about the scope of the job beforehand and either couldn't or wouldn't do the full job, which included a kitchen and laundry room that needed a deep cleaning."

"Hired Hydro Clean for medium area carpet cleaning. Tech was on time and was ready to go! My husband is more aware of expert cleaning & was not satisfied with the level of cleaning we received. Lot of moisture left in carpet. I had not experienced this before & I was okay with the final result. I will definitely express my wishes/wants with next cleaning. EXACT!"
"We are very pleased with the job Dave did for us today. He was prompt and very courteous and did a professional job cleaning our carpets. Thank you for keeping the planned schedule as promised. We will recommend your company to our family and friends.

Stan"

House Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Most DIY floor cleaners don’t require rinsing, but you’ll want to make sure you don’t add too much dish soap or oil to the cleaner to avoid having to rinse it after cleaning. For non-wood floors, mix 8 parts warm water, 1 part vinegar, and 1 part baking soda with a few drops of dish soap. For wood floors, use olive oil in that same mixture instead of the vinegar. You can let these solutions air-dry after cleaning your floors with them, although you should manually dry your floors if they aren’t waterproof.

Hydrogen peroxide is an effective stain remover for many kinds of stains on porcelain, ceramic, stone, and stainless steel sinks. Always consult your manufacturer’s instructions to ensure hydrogen peroxide won’t damage your sink. To remove stains with hydrogen peroxide, saturate the corner of a cloth or sponge with peroxide and gently dab at the stain until it lightens.

The best way to help a family member or friend declutter their home is to hire a professional organizer or cleaner to do it for them. However, you can also help them make a plan to tackle the clutter. Sit down with them and sort through the items, making piles of what to keep, toss, and donate. Focus on one area at a time to avoid overwhelming them. If they have trouble letting go of some items, ask them when they last used each item, what its purpose is, and whether it has sentimental value. The answers to these questions can help you advise them on handling clutter.

Dog scents can linger months, if not years, if you don’t treat the odors at the source. Cleaning carpets to remove odorous pet dander from fibers or disposing of carpets, dog toys, or dog beds that may have urine or other pet smells on them can all help.

While a biohazard cleanup sounds like a scary process, knowing what to expect can help ease your concerns and set you up for success. It’s good to note that more than one professional might be needed depending on your situation, but that will be determined during the assessment. What you can expect during a home biohazard cleanup is the following:

  • Assessment: The first step in this process is for a biohazard cleanup professional to assess the damage. They create a report that includes the biohazard safety level, the needed damage cleanup, and the time it should take to complete the project. 

  • Setup: The cleanup professional prepares the site to prevent cross-contamination and reduce toxicity risk. This process can include tarping and creating decontamination zones. 

  • Removal of surface contamination: Any contaminated materials are removed from the area, starting with large materials followed by small ones. The professional can assess any floor-related damage once everything is removed from the site. 

  • Salvaging items: The biohazard cleanup professionals assess which items can be saved and which are contaminated beyond the point of saving. Those deemed unsafe will be disposed of immediately. 

  • Waste disposal: The next step is carefully disposing of the hazardous waste. Your professional will place the contaminated items in specific containers to keep the contamination from spreading.   

  • Disinfection: The house will be disinfected and odor-neutralized. Even more minor details, like light switches and bulbs, will be disinfected so that they do not recontaminate the area in the future. 

  • Restoration: Once the decontamination is complete, the last step is to restore the home. This includes repairing the damage to flooring, walls, or even the home's foundation.
