Excellent job but did miss a 1/2 bath off bedroom. Do have an appointment for a cleaning on 04/03 and certain that the missed bath will be included. Other than that oversight I would highly recommend A-Z clean freaks.

"I had a Groupon for 1000 sq. ft. of driveway sealing. I have about 2000 sq. ft. I bought the Groupon and called, and I was told it would be another $170, so I wanted to set the appointment. It actually took a year to get done, as he had too many Groupon customers and was giving scheduling preference to his existing client base. Once we had the appointment, they arrived on time, could not have been more pleasant, did a great job, and left the area spotless.
