Wonderful experience!

Between work and health issues, somehow my home had gotten out of my control - I had stuff stacked up all over the place, and I realized one day that there was no way I was going to be able to deal with it. I really wasn't sure what kind of service to look for - I needed more than a cleaning agency, but not a handyman just for getting me organized. I came to Angies List and found ABC Cleaning and Organizing, which was exactly what I was looking for. I sent an email off that evening, and got a prompt response setting up a date for Pat and Cathy to come over and see what I needed. Since then, they've been coming every other week, and staying for about 4 hours each time. They've helped clear the clutter and get me organized, they've taken donation items to the best places to donate, they've done an amazing job with the cleaning - even moving the furniture to thoroughly clean the area. They even do laundry while they're here! They've told me "just tell us what you need, and we'll do it". I am so happy that I found Pat and Cathy! They've done a fantastic job, and we've gotten through a lot of the clutter that I've managed to build up over the years. We still have a ways to go - we're going to go through all the closets and the stuff in the basement, but at least now I feel like I can invite guests into my home without embarrassment.

They were excellent. They were so willing to customize the move even though it involved several stops and shifting around of furniture. They were very good.

I contacted Cathy Clayton through Angie's List to see if she could clean our daughter's home before her wedding...before out-of-town family and guests arrived. Working retail full time up until the wedding, our daughter had no time to attend to a major housecleaning. Cathy came to the rescue! She let me know right away that they would fit her in and were so excited to help out. Cathy kept in touch by email as far as what needed doing, cleaning supplies, size of home, time, etc. She was very thorough in keeping us informed and she and her sister and a young friend came on time as promised...squeezed between other jobs....and went at it while the bride and the rest of the family were busy outside in the yard planting flowers, mowing, and weeding. It was SO nice to have someone take on the housecleaning task in such a supportive manner. The house was sparkling and fresh when they left. They couldn't have been nicer and more fun to work with. They made our daughter's life much easier right before her special day!

Prior to contacting Cathy and Pat, I had made 3 disorganized moves within 2 years while working full-time and trying to raise my 10 and 7 year old children who live half-time with me. My stuff was out of sorts and my kids' rooms were disaster areas because nothing really had a home. Cathy and Pat weren't the least bit fazed with the mess. They knew exactly what to do and did it quickly. I had a family gathering to prepare my home for within about 3 weeks of contacting Cathy and Pat, and they made a point to fit me into their schedule so that my home would be ready. First they came (for free) and did a quick walk through the home to give me an idea of how long they thought it would take, so I could have a rough idea of how much I could expect it to cost (they charge a flat per-hour rate). We set up several appointments for them to come in 3- to 4-hour increments to do the work. For each appointment, they showed up on time, got right to work, worked quickly and got a lot done. Within 10 hours (20 manhours), they organized/cleaned my kitchen, living room, kids' rooms and finished basement. The finished basement was literally filled with boxes, bags and piles of miscellaneous stuff that just overwhelmed me. No problem for them. They also gave me a new way of thinking about some of the stuff I had been keeping: boxes, kids' papers, etc. It was such a relief to have their help. The party went off without a hitch and now, on the "day after", I'm loving the order and beauty of my home instead of stressing over the messes. Life's too short to live with the stress of clutter and messes. Save up a little money and get their help!

Pat and Cathy have very high standards for cleaning and did what I would have done if I had had the time. They work quickly and have given me many helpful suggestions for maintaining what they've done. They especially have a knack for organizing--getting rid of clutter, and grouping things logically. Everything now has a well-defined home! I would highly recommend them.

Overall, I cannot say enough good things about Cathy and Pat. They scrubbed my new house from top to bottom before I moved in and cleaned the old house the day I moved. On moving day, the movers had run late and I needed to get to the closing. Cathy stayed at the new house to watch over the moving crew- that was just above and beyond. So- if you need help packing your house or cleaning your garage or you just need to get organized- Hire them. They are excellent!

It went very well. They arrived exactly on time and went right to work. They thoroughly cleaned the entire basement. It looked great when they finished! They were very accommodating when they unexpectedly had to work around my husband, brother-in-law and a plumber. I will definitely call them again, if I need more help with the upstairs part of the house. They charged exactly what they had told me in advance.

I called Kathy about cleaning my condo which was being put up for sale. She came out with her sister on a Sunday to do it. They were friendly and thorough with their work. I gave them a budget and a list and they pretty much got everything done. Everything looks sparkling clean.

Cathy and her sister were GREAT !*! Very pleasant, kind ladies who worked efficiently yet thoroughly...and they were willing to clean how I desired things to be done. Their work was superb......I would highly recommend them !

Worked on setting a date with Cathy and had to change the date on her because things don't always go as planned when having work done. She was easy to work with. She sent me the list of cleaning supplies prior to her arrival. I actually thought that my house was in pretty good shape but when she told me they had spent five hours in the master shower I knew that she was doing a great job. I don't have a simple shower - it is a Kohler 10 jet Body Spa. An example of the quality of work is that they were not happy with how the glass doors were looking after cleaning so she sent her husband to Kirkwood Glass to get a special glass cleaner. To most people the glass would have looked "good enough" but Cathy is a perfectionist. Walking into the house after she was done was like walking into a brand new house with the "clean house" smell. I was blown away by how great everything looked.

My house hasn't looked this sparkling since about 3 months after I moved in (and it was first built)!

They were not here long, but they were very good. I would give them an excellent recommendation. They were very nice, friendly and accommodating. I would hire them again. I may have them come back for further cleaning in my garage.

It couldn't have been a better experience. From beginning to end, these gals were professional in every way but also just great to work with. They got back with me right away, showed up when they said they would, brought helpful supplies, worked tirelessly (and even cheerfully!), were willing to do whatever I needed, work as long as I needed them to, and were just overall a pleasure to work with. I couldn't believe how easy they made what had been so difficult to do on my own. I plan to use them again and again as I work through my house getting things cleaned and organized!

We have been re-rehabilitating a 100+ year old house for almost a year, and we had lots of construction dust, as well as general dirt, and we needed it cleaned before we could move in. I just did not have the time and energy to clean it, so we called ABC. Cathy and her sister came in and cleaned it better than I could ever have cleaned it, and did so quickly and efficiently. I was so impressed with their energy and their attention to detail!

Cathy has been cleaning our house for one year. She is tireless in her work. Our house has not received such thorough attention to cleaning in the past thirty-five years!

They fit me in their schedule and came when I needed them.

Mine was a neglected house for several years. These ladies have had a major undertaking with the packing and cleaning that is involved in helping me organize my home. They have been professional, they do what they say they're going to do, and they are extremely nice to work with. I have trusted them with the entire contents of my house and I have not been disappointed.

Kathy and Pat are great, very nice, organized and efficient. They have cleaned things that have never been cleaned, despite multiple previous cleaning services. They are meticulous and very good at the job. I have engaged them on a regular basis. I would highly recommend them.

She charges me $25/hour for home organization and cleaning and does an excellent job. I'll continue using her and would recommend her to anyone!
