They had a schedule to keep, and were in and out. They are a vast improvement over the amateur service provided by my previous cleaner, Ithaclean.

We have used Broom Hilda for chimney cleaning for over 25 years. They have always been punctual, thorough and very professional. Daryl takes time to answer any questions I have. I find the cost high, but it is comparable, if not slightly lower, than other professsional chimney sweeps in the area.

Darol and Mike did a SUPERB job! They came on time, started working right away, and did a great job. They were very professional. Many of our windows are oxidized due to aluminum screens and hard to clean. They explained this to us patiently, and were not at all offended when we asked them to re-clean some spots that did not look perfectly clean. The windows look great after they cleaned them! We will definitely use them again in the future.

I have used Broom Hilda's House Cleaning a couple of times and they have been good so far. They have been doing okay and they seem to know what they are doing and they do a good job. They usually come in earlier than they say they are going to be and so that is good. I may expand more of their duties and give them more business. They clean everything very well and the price is good.

First time they came, I literally didn't know if they had come. Second time was better, third time no so good. I called to express my concerns and there was no effort to make things right. Not a company i want to work with ever again.


Response from Broom Hilda's House Cleaning
"The member's house is VERY cluttered. It was explained during her walkthrough that it's impossible to clean thoroughly when each surface is covered. She did not pickup anything before the first cleaning. I explained it again, she agreed, and had it picked up better the following visit. She called to say she was very satisfied with the second cleaning but would not be having us return. The reason: she had a bowl of M&M's on her counter. My staff helped themselves to a few. That's why people have M&M's in bowls on counters. The member informed me she had counted each M&M the morning of our visit and again when she returned that evening and that my staff "stole" M&M's! I couldn't believe it. And that's the "things that were missing" from her house:)"
