Two ladies showed up around 8am in the morning (though their scheduled time was between 9am and 12pm). I let them in and had to leave to drop off my kids at school. I asked the cleaners and they were fine with that. I told them very clearly what needs to be done and asked them a couple of time if they knew what I wanted and if everything was clear. I wrote them a check for $139 and left. They were supposed to be there for 2hrs. If the cleaning was not done by then they were supposed to call me to see if I want them to do the rest of the work or not. These were the things I signed up for - clean two bathrooms and one kitchen - that includes cleaning inside of the cupboards, fridge, oven, microwave, clean the toilet, sink and bathtubs in the bathrooms.
I came back around 12pm. I went into the kitchen. Absolutely nothing was done. They didn't touch the fridge or the oven or the microwave. Inside of the cupboards were just the way I left them. All they did was wipe the countertops. But there were water streaks all over. The kitchen looked more dirty then before. The bathrooms were the same....toilets, sinks, mirror nothing was touched. Bathtubs looked like they were wiped with water maybe but definitely not scrubbed. There were no soap or any other cleaning product (natural or general) involved. me and my husband had to spend couple of hours cleaning everything ourselves. It was very stressful as our tenants were moving in that evening and we had to do other last minute clean ups and fix ups.
Couple of days later Maidpro called to see how their service was. I told them exactly what happened. The man named Dionne said he'll talk to the owner and see what he can do. He called back next week to say Maidpro will refund $75 out of the $139 dollars that I paid. I can have it back on my card they have on file for me or they can send me a check. I asked for the refund on my card.
Two weeks later I checked my card and saw no refunds. So I called back to see what was going on. Someone named Shelly answered the call. She checked her computer and said that the note on my account said the refund will go back on my card. She said in a very angry tone "I don't know why you would think we would do something else". I explained to her that I didn't see the refund yet on my card and Dionne ( the guy who I talked to before) said that they could refund me by check or CC and I wanted to make sure it goes back on my CC. The lady very rudely told me she'll get back to me.
Ironically this Shelly person called me back in a couple of hours and guess what.....they sent me a check at my old address. So I called back and this time the owner answered the phone. His name was Dan. I explained to him the situation and that I haven't received the check as it was sent to my old address. This man was even more rude than his employees. He said all he knows was that the check was sent. I asked if he could send another check to my new address and If I receive the old check in the mail I'll destroy it or drop it off at their local office. He said very angrily "no" because that will cost him $32 to put a stop on the old check. So I asked him why they didn't call me for my new address as the they knew very clearly that it was a move out clean up. I also told him i'll call him back if I don't get the check in the mail in another couple of days. He very unwillingly agreed and hung up on me.
Not only were their service bad but they also had awful customer service. Obviously keeping their customers happy is not their priority. It was stressful moving with two kids. But these people didn't help...they made it even more stressful. They were rude and made me feel like I was wrong to say they had bad service. We hired their service so that we can concentrate on other things. But that was not the case. I really don't care about the money. I just want everyone to know about the service before they hire Maidpro. They are in one word "AWFUL".
"Here are some facts. We cleaned this home on 10.31.14 and learned there was a problem with the cleaning the week of 11.3.14. We offered to send someone back to re-clean the problem areas. That was not acceptable to the customer. We offered a refund and $75 was agreed to. The customer asked that the refund be but on her credit card, which was also agreed to. What was not known at that time was that the Credit Processer will not allow a merchant to issue a credit on a credit card it had not charged. The customer had paid by check so issuing a credit back to her credit card was not an option. A check for $75 was mailed to address on file on 11.11.14. On 11.19.14 customer called and talked to me, the owner. Since she had not yet received the check she asked that another be sent, to her new address. I told her the bank charges $32 for a stop payment and asked that she give it a few days for the USPS to catch up to her. I asked her to let me know the week of 11.24.14 if she had not received the check and I that would reissue the check at that time. I thought we had reached an amiable conclusion. I have never hung up on a customer and I did not hang up on this one."
my home is and how long it will take. We talked about what I needed done. We arranged to
have a cleaner come. She came and met all my expectations. The office will charge my VISA
the next day after they hear that I am satisfied. I like that. AND they have 30 employees so if
one is sick, they will send someone else. I have not had positive experiences in the past with
smaller one or two person companies, so I am looking forward to a long relationship with this
company.
We contacted Maid Pro to come in help us while our house was on the market. There were a couple of areas that were missed when the initial cleaning was done. However, the subsequent cleanings were great. We had Maid Pro complete the final cleaning on our home when it sold and also arranged for them to come in and do an initial clean on our new home. The employees that I worked with were always friendly and professional. I liked that the same person come every week - I felt comfortable with her and she was familiar with our home and priorities.
I received a call back right away from a very helpful representative at Maid Pro who walked me through a "survey" of house info (how big, how many bathrooms, etc) and what specific services I wanted performed. After going through this info, I got an estimate of four hours at $40/per to complete the work. Even though it was before Memorial Day weekend, they were able to get me on the schedule quickly, which I appreciated very much. They asked for and I gave them permission to work over the allotted 4 hours if they needed more time to complete the work. That was fine with me...I thought that the price was reasonable if the work was done well.
I asked to have the upstairs of the house cleaned....refrigerator, stovetop (oven was already clean), cabinets, all wood floors washed and bathroom cleaned. Downstairs, only the laundry room and bathroom needed to be cleaned as our landlord was planning to replace all of the carpeting in the basement. anyway.
The work was performed on 5/22/13. I returned to the house to get the key just as the cleaning person was finishing up. After she left, I took a quick look around to see how everything looked. I didn't do an in depth inspection as the floors were still really wet and I didn't want to mess up her work.
From first glance, it looked pretty good upstairs. The glass in the china hutch looked a little streaky, but I really didn't notice anything else upstairs that stood out. I didn't go through drawers, cupboards or anything like that at that time.
I then went downstairs and was really bummed to see that the laundry room hadn't been even touched. It was totally missed.
I went home, disappointed that I would have to follow up again the next day with Maid Pro to see what happened.
The next day, I called Maid Pro and told them that no one had cleaned the laundry room. She told me that that surprised her because they had gone slightly over the four hours estimated to clean the house. She also told me that they have a 24 hour guarantee for their services performed and will go back and fix things if you are not satisfied. However, the person who cleaned the house was off that day. She said that someone (I am assuming this would be the manager or owner or Maid Pro) would call me back about this. I was very understanding (hey -- anyone could miss a room, right?) and told her that I didn't need this fixed within 24 hours since I knew it was right before the Memorial Day holiday and they were busy. I said that it could be fixed any time before May 31, when we had to give the keys back to the landlord. We hung up and I expected that I would get a call to arrange the additional cleaning some time the following week.
No one ever contacted me from Maid Pro. I ended up cleaning the laundry room myself.
At the walkthrough with our landlords on June 1st, we went through everything in great detail. Upon closer inspection, the pantry had never been cleaned out, the recylclable bin wasn't washed out. The track was broken for the garbage bin and recyclable bin (we were charged $30 for this), the cupboard doors were still dirty (we were charged $50 recleaning fee). It was kind of embarrassing to get charged for additional cleaning when I tried to do everything the right way and hire professionals. I guess I learned my lesson as I didn't go through every detail immediately..
What is really disappointing is that they could have made all of this better, but they totally dropped the ball and did not follow up by contacting me..
I had even mentioned upon initially booking this appointment that I would also be interested in getting an estimate for bi-weekly cleaning of our new house as well. You would kind of think that might be incentive for a business to make a good first impression for continuing patronage.
All in all, we were very disappointed in Lake Elmo Maid Pro and would not recommend them to our friends or family.
