The day after the cleaning, we went over to the house and noted that the patio was not swept out (we understand that it was fall and we didn't take the leaves into account) with gravel all over the front door. We walked indoors and for the most part, the floors looked to be cleaned up and the upstairs carpet was vacuumed (we saw vacuum marks). During our walk-through, we were told that the drawers and cupboards would be wiped down and cleaned out and the sink wiped down, but that was not the case. The drawers did not look like they were even vacuumed and there was still bits of dust/dirt still in there. The sink had crusty bits in them that were not there before, so not sure what happened there.
I walked toward the stairs and just saw a layer of dust still on the bottom of the banisters. I had to dust it and wipe it down myself as we had a house showing the very next day, so we did not have time to call them and have them come back to re-clean the house - to be honest, at this time, I just wanted to be done. The last straw was when the kitchen floors still had shoe prints from when the movers were just moving a few weeks prior.
I was actually going to have a contract for them to clean our new house, but I had to rethink that because of this "first impression". It is very unfortunate, as they had been a recommendation from a friend of ours and we wanted to like them.
Overall, the cleaning crews did a good job for the 1.5 years that I retained their services. Unfortunately, the last cleaning in early October did not meet my expectations or the typical performance that they had done on past cleanings. I communicated to MyGirlsCleaning that I was disappointed in the wood floor - there was still dog drool everywhere and you could see the schmeered rag strokes - leaving the floor in worse condition than it was before they cleaned it. I asked MyGirlsCleaning if they could please come back and re-do the floor....there was NO RESPONSE.
Two months later, I receive a text from MyGirlsCleaning reminding me of my scheduled service, without any acknowledgement of their lack of response to my concerns....I told them that I would no longer be using their service because of their lack of responsiveness in fixing the wood floor problem. MyGirlsCleaning reactionary response to this was, "we apologize for the lack of communication...is there is anything we can do, please let us know". Cop out.
They had no interest in keeping me on as their customer and I'm not sure why because I was a steady customer that never complained in the 1.5 years they had me, an easy cleaning job, plus I got them several clients in my condo building. If they were interested in keeping me on as a happy customer, they would have offered me a discount (or FREE) on my next cleaning to make up for the crappy wood floor and lack of accountability when I communicated these concerns. I would have happily accepted that offer and this review would have been about how great they are.
I put my house on the market, and asked them to start coming weekly. I was a little shocked their price of $125.00 didn't go down. The only way to get them to pay attention to all the details (which a house on the market needs) and really do a job was to leave the crew a $20-30 cash tip. It got to be too expensive for what I was getting so I went with another service.
The one thing to be said is that they were excellent in switching my days if necessary, and coming at the time that was most convenient to me (they have 3 slots, like an 8 am, 11-1, and 1-3. I always preferred the later one, and they could oblige 9 times out of 10.
"As the member had stated in her complaint, we stopped by to examine the damaged carpet. The carpet was very old. The damaged spots looked like her dog had torn them up. Our vacuum is an Oreck vacuum that weighs only 8lbs. It is a residential vacuum. The bristles on the vacuum are not capable of damaging carpet. After reviewing all the information we had felt as though she wanted us to get our insurances to replace her carpet for damages that we were not responsible for. For this reason we canceled her cleaning."
