Kathy and company have been very responsive and do a great job. Not only would we recommend them, but as one of one of our renters said, "This is the cleanest house we've had in 10+ years of coming to Harwich."

I was impressed with Kathy from the moment I met her. She arrived on time and was friendly and professional. She assessed the size and condition of our home and provided what I believed to be a fair estimate for cleaning services for weekly turnover of our rental property. I particularly liked that her estimate is based on the actual number of hours spent cleaning the house - so if our renters are neat, we may be able to refund part of their cleaning fee. I also like that the cleaner leaves a card with Kathy's cell phone number, so if a renter arrives and something has been overlooked, they can call and a cleaner will be sent immediately.
I have been in touch with Kathy during the off-season for periodic rentals and she has been responsive and accommodating. Really happy with Beautiful Home of Cape Cod! I highly recommend them!

At Thanksgiving guests would be arriving for the weekend, and I was "under the gun" to get everything ready. The two women were thorough, friendly, and efficient, leaving my two-story, one family home in tip top shape. -- Both full bathrooms shone; and the side laundry room was also cleaned deodorized; -- The three bedrooms were ready for my quests and my family; and the open kitchen-living room area was ready for entertaining and meal preparation. All this was really important because during the week, I live and work in a different place in Massachusetts, off-cape and needed help desperately. Beautiful Home of Cape Cod was perfect for the job at a rate I could afford.

I received an email from my regular housecleaner that she was sick and unable to do the turnover cleaning of our cottage the next day. We had renters leaving Sat. morning and new ones arriving on Sat. afternoon, so we were desperate to find someone to do the turnover cleaning. I left a message for Kathy and she got back to me very quickly saying she could be there in the morning. She was very friendly and professional. The next day Kathy and one of her employees arrived as scheduled and did a thorough cleaning of our house. I truly appreciated her willingness to rearrange her schedule to help us out of a jam, and I would definitely use her services again.

responded immediately, came shortly after time scheduled which was fine
I did not expect a team where each person had an hourly rate
it's a good concept if all workers are equal but that was not the case
one cleaner spent a very long time wiping a wall
another had one job, to clean one small bathroom which had a dirty mirror at the end
one young man was dusting using a feather duster which only swished dust in the air with no real cleaning
I had already washed and waxed the hardwood floors but the kitchen floor cleaning was a top priority
the job was not at all thorough there were stains and spots still present after they left

. Kathy Wembly contacted me a couple of days before the date of service to say yes she would be able to clean the house on consecutive Saturdays. I had been left high and dry by the cleaning company who normally serviced the house every Saturday because we rent it out through out the summer months. She said she would clean on the 27th and the 5th but aftyer that she did not know, we said thats great. Quoted me a price of 140.00. The cleaning girl arrived at 9:45 am and was waiting for Kathy to arrive with the supplies, which she did about 10:15 am. They cleaned for a couple hours pointed out some cob webs, crumbs on the floor, napkins etc etc. As I was getting ready to leave she informed me that the cost would be 210.00 because her cleaning girl would be there for SIX HOURS. I didnt argue and paid, grateful she came at all. The incoming guests called me at 2:30 pm to say they arrived safety and what a beautiful home it was. No cleaning people on the premise and I guess finished early!!! Kathy emailed me on Saturday morning of July 5th and said she couldnt clean today and unless someone cancelled any other Saturday. After squeezing an extra seventy bucks from me the previous Saturday she is now a no show after telling me she would be there. My wife and I cleaned the house ourselves and it took three hours and looked great. This lady not only screwed me for extra money the week before she pulls ano show the morning of. Not the way I run my business nor a good way to run a cleaning business. She knew it was two bathrooms and four bedrooms what was the EXTRA MONEY FOR, because it was a nice house and she thought we could afford it??? dont go near her unless you want to pay extra.

"I apologize that we have had poor communication about the Saturday turnover rental cleaning. I did email late on Friday with my apology for being unable to clean the next day due to illness among my workers. Knowing that the homeowners would be there, I hoped they would be able to take care of it themselves this time. On the day we cleaned, we knew the house had not had a spring cleaning, and some extra work needed to be done, particularly in the great room, which I showed the homeowner at the time. Assuming that we would be cleaning there in the future, I wanted to make sure that the homeowners knew about the broken lampshades, spills on upholstery, and stains on carpets, as well as showing them the cobwebs and bugs behind furniture and in corners that needed to be taken care of. I worked with my cleaner until I needed to attend to another job, leaving her to finish up. She and I had each worked 2 hours already and I made my best estimate of when she would be done, adding two more hours to the invoice. My cleaner called me later to inform me that the new tenants had arrived at 2:30 rather than 3:00, so she had quickly finished up and left. I made a note that we would owe the homeowner 1/2 hour of cleaning next time. I was assuming that a regular turnover cleaning going forward would take 3-4 hours. Due to the extreme heat, and the busyness of the season, I did not have a chance to communicate with the homeowner during the following week, but I was making my best effort to include his home on our Saturday schedule. When one of my cleaners informed me after 11 p.m. on Friday that he had a fever and would not be able to work the next day, I informed this new client by email about my inability to fit his home in this week, apologizing, and promising to inform him if I could fit the cleaning in the next Saturday. We performed quality work on short notice at a cost agreed on by the homeowners. I will plan to refund the 1/2 hour which we were overpaid if the homeowner chooses not to have us return."

We needed someone to clean the house.... fast. I had put my back out and we had company coming. Uh Oh. Went to Angie's List and randomly chose Beautiful Home of Cape Cod. They were very considerate and made themselves available on short notice. Did a great job.

Chuck was comfortable doing the work without us being home. It was very convenient. When we did get home the closet doors had been installed perfectly. If you didn't know it, you would not have realized that workers were in the house. Everything was clean and tidy and terrific. I look forward to more projects with Chuck.

They arrived close to on time (the house is hard to find) and were very apologetic about the 10 minute (if that) delay. The owner came with two cleaners, reviewed the job again with them in detail and left once they were started. They were thorough, efficient and serious scrubbers! The two worked for six hours straight with virtually no break and the woman who cleaned the master shower actually got the mildew stains off that I had failed to remove with bleach. This team has a high standard for cleaning, and if you want a quickie once-over they are probably not for you. They came with their own supplies and equipment. The price was more than I had hoped for - not a bargain but fair for the hard work that was needed.

We had company coming for a week and were in a huge bind. My husband and I usually do it all ourselves, but some unforeseen things had come up and we were running out of time and energy. I sent a desperate note through the Beautiful Home of Cape Cod website and Kathy (the owner) responded quickly and made immediate arrangements to come at short notice. She and two brawny young men arrived the next day and started right in on getting the place ship-shape. They were extremely thorough and quick and professional. Reaching out to Kathy was definitely a life-saver!

Kathy and team came to my house after my family of 12 people stayed for the week of 4th of July. She assembled the team on short notice and was flexible with timing and availability. The house is mainly hardwood floors and has not had a head to toe cleaning in a few years. They did a great job with the windows, moving and cleaning behind and below furniture, and polishing the hardwood floors. The team spent 4 hours at the house and did a great job. I would recommend Kathy and will likely use her again either to clean regularly or another big clean up. I do think the service is a bit expensive.

Chuck did a great job and the place looks great. There was great attention to detail and Chuck spent time helping me work out the details. Living in Boston and the cottage being on the Cape brought with it some challenges as I was designing it remotely at times. Chuck was great at communicating with me and reporting back. A kitchen cabinet had to be fixed to fit in and Chuck did a great job. Chuck also did most of the electrical and plumbing. When there was a task that required an expert (installing the wiring for the electric stove top), Chuck had the wherewithal to call in an expert to ensure the job would be done correctly. The remodeling took longer than expected and that was the only disappointment, however, that is not uncommon with remodeling. (The remodeling was in May) Housecleaning I had, only compliments from the renters. Kathy has always been there when I needed her. When I got last minute bookings in the fall, she was very accommodating to get the cottage cleaned for me before they come. If there is an extra that needs to be done, she does it. The new refrigerator I got was a disaster. It fit under the counter and looked great, but was not frost free. It ended up needing to be defrosted every 2 - 3 weeks and this had not been in the plan. However, Kathy always had the cottage ready for the renters. With Beautiful Home, I have coverage for cleaning and repairs. If there is a problem, I can call them to check things out and I rest easy that things are in good hands. I don't have to track down an electrician, or a plumber and hope that they will be responsive. With this relationship I get great service and the pricing is reasonable. (Note: the remodeling was done in May, 2010. Kathy worked for me June through Oct. 2010 and will continue with me through 2011, and beyond I hope)

My experience was always very professional. As an owner living 1500 miles and communicating by e-mail and phone over the last five months, Chuck has always kept me informed and updated on the progress of my new kitchen. It might seem like a long time but he had to wait on deliveries from Lowe's and Sears. He worked in my home during an exceptional cold winter. He will be doing some more work by building two new closets in the master bedroom. As you can see, he is an A find, thank you Angie's List for helping find him.
