Contemporary Living Services

Arrived on time and as arranged to complete the estimate. However, two days later I received an email that they would not be able to provide the estimate (nor do the job) because they did not have the staff to complete the service. While this was very disappointing since (due to the owner's illness) initially it took some time to arrange for the estimate, I also understand that with a small company [on a rare instance] this can be out of their control. I wanted to give an "NA" for the overall rating, however, the system requires a letter grade.

Neil was very accomodating inasmuch as we were under a time crunch. The cleanliness of the rooms far exceeded my expectations. They were right on time, neat and meticulous. They made suggestions related to safety precautions as well as future cleaning recommendations. I would highly recommend them

Neal and Mia and Catherine with Contemporary Living Services have cleaned my house for several years now. I cannot express how wonderful they are! They clean with non-toxic products, which are essential in light of my health problems (and get my house much cleaner than the standard cleaning products do). They are also the most thorough cleaners I have ever had. Nothing is left uncleaned. They have brought things back to life (like my scummy shower door) that no other cleaners (even with toxic products and scrubbers, etc.) came close to being able to clean and renew. Each time they are done, my house sparkles, and smells fresh, not chemically. They are also such kind and generous people, and a pleasure to talk with and have in my home. I trust them with anything. They are always so willing and kind. And their price is extremely reasonable, given all the time and work they put into the job. For my mother's 80th birthday, I gave her the gift of Neal and Mia thoroughly cleaning her house for the party she was having. They took the whole day, on a Saturday, and charged me for only a portion of it. My mother's house is cleaned every other week by staff in her retirement community, but it looked like a brand new (and very clean) house when Neal and Mia were finished with it. I could not recommend this company more highly. I am so grateful for them!!

Neil and his helper were very courteous and did not waste time in doing what I asked. I was home and periodically checked to see how they were doing. I checked the job well before they left and was very pleased. I asked them if they could clean for me regularly but there was no opening in the schedule. However, Neil offered to come for special cleaning jobs like he had just completed for me. I had him return on another day and clean my family room and kitchen that included washing the cabinets. There are 15 double door upper cabinets and 18 base cabinets, half of them are triple drawers. Neil started cleaning the cabinets with Milsek cleaner/polish since my cabinets are cherry. I asked him to use my general purpose cleaner as I think that removes cooking residue better. He had no problem with that since it is an environmentally safe cleaner. I was very happy with that job as well.

It went perfectly! Neal and Mia are first class animal lovers with training experience with dogs. Both are extremely qualified to care for any dog, but most especially special needs animals. They visited twice prior to the contract dates to observe, meet and get to know our pooch. Mia even called us when there was a question about medication; I would use their services in a heart beat over and over again!

This was a deep cleaning of my "dust collector" full home, which had been getting a lick and a promise since my last house cleaner hurt her knee - a year before. Neal and Mia are amazing, spent more time than they had anticipated, but kept the price to our agreed amount. I am only sorry they don't have a slot to put us in their regular cleaning schedule.

He led us to believe that he does a very though job of cleaning, the basics and extra items that most people don't clean like baseboards. He cleaned the extra areas like baseboards, but neglected the floor, the counters-things we considered as part of the basic house cleaning.We didn't think the cleaners he uses are very good either.

Neal and his team do ongoing work for me and I am always happy with his work, he is meticulous!

They were wonderful. They cleaned my house for about 4 or 5 months. They are far more skilled than how they describe themselves. They can design, they can stage, they can help you redecorate. Neil is an artist that just happens to be in the cleaning business. His pricing is very fair.

CLS is absolutely fabulous! They are extremely professional, dependable, trustworthy, and their cleaning of our home is impeccable. They are very detail oriented: provide a really deep clean with environmentally friendly materials. We have two dogs and are always amazed at how they can rid our house of all that hair in just two hours! They are definitely worth every penny!

The first deep clean in Nov. was done very well and priced very reasonably @ $150.00 for 2 people and 4 hours. Walls were wiped down, windows washed, all furniture and woodwork polished, upholstery vacuumed, hardwood floors polished, tile washed, rugs vacuumed and chandelier cleaned. The kitchen was completed well with 2 exceptions. I pointed out that the range hood, which is wood and tile trimmed and glazed plaster, was not clean. I recommended using a grease cutting solution that I had used previously with success. Neal prefers using only eco friendly products, which I, also, prefer but sometimes tough jobs require more. The second problem was the windows, which are a real pain to clean, I admit. The inner pane must be removed so that the two inside surfaces can be cleaned. Then, replace that pane and wash the inside and outside surface like ordinary windows. This requires washing 4 panes of glass for each window. They used a microfiber cloth and water to clean the glass. The windows looked great until the next morning when the sun shined through. Neal offered to return to clean them but I said to wait until spring. Other than that, everything was done very well. I would have scheduled them for biweekly cleaning but their schedule is full. Neal indicated that they would be willing to do an occasional cleaning and would notify us if they had a vacancy.

We are still using this service. They arrive on time and are detail oriented.

They did a phenomenal job and there were no problems there. We use them on a regular basis and they provide service every two weeks. They are really good, punctual and professional. They don't cut corners and do a very good job. They don't rush into doing things and really take their time. Sometimes when they come into the house we go shopping and don't even stay home. They finish their work, close the house and leave, so they are really trustworthy people. We have never found anything missing.

This company has been my bi-weekly cleaning service for about a year and they have done a pretty good job. Unfortunately, we had a fire in our kitchen and thus had to suspend their services until the construction was completed. When I contacted them to be put back on the schedule they advised me that they had no available time slots. I found this lack of loyalty to be unprofessional, especially since I had written a glowing review on Angie's List when we first contracted them last November. Moral of the story: if you contract them, never suspend service or you will be out of luck!

Catherine Franklin was wonderful. She helped organized my kitchen.

The Contemporary Living Services team does an outstanding job with great attention to detail and great responsiveness!

When we moved into Hudson my wife and I were searching for a new house cleaning service. Luckily we cam across Neal and Mia at Contemporary Living Services. I'm being completely honest when I say that we could not be happier with them. The level of professionalism, attention to detail and quality of work is far superior than any service we have every used. Mia also does painting and we hired her to paint our daughter's nursery. Not only was the job done exceptionally well, she even staged the room after she was done. Everything was amazing. I couldn't ever imagine searching for another company to use. We're blessed to have found them.

Neil and his partners are the best housecleaners I've ever employed. They are extraordinarily thorough in their cleaning and arranging. They do an amazing job in all respects. The price is reasonable as well.

We had tried other cleaners before CLS, and were never satisfied. Our disappointment with other cleaning services varied, but got to the point where we were uncomfortable having anyone clean our home but us. When I read the reviews of CLS, I contacted the owner and he set up a meeting with me. After talking with him, I was sufficiently impressed to hope that he could add us to his customer list and hoped the cleaning would live up to our expectations. Well, the work ethic of this company and the quality of their cleaning are unequaled! Not only are we completely comfortable with them working in our home, I truly never expected to find anyone this good and with this level of attention to detail. Neal, the owner, is a perfectionist. And it shows in his work. These are the most courteous, helpful, professional, ethical people--who also do an extraordinary job every time they clean our home. I would truly like to hear from anyone who has found this level of quality (and at a fair and reasonable price) anywhere else!

I called this company for window cleaning and other cleaning services. I got their voice mail and expected a call back. Several days later, I received a call back with just a phone number. I returned the call and never heard from them again. I explained I was new in town and would appreciate knowing if they would be able to help or not. No call, no feedback. This was very disappointing.

They arrived on time, brought all time own supplies. They did everything as promised and more. I was quite impressed by their overall cleaning A++++++.

They come about every three weeks and do a very thorough job! I also think they're reasonably priced, as well.

I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER WITH THE SERVICE AND QUALITY OF WORK PERFORMED. IT DOESN'T HURT EITHER THAT STEPHANIE AND MATT ARE EXTREMELY PERSONABLE. IT'S A PLEASURE TO HAVE THEM IN MY HOME. I AM ONLY HAVING THE FIRST FLOOR DONE AT THIS TIME BECAUSE OF MAJOR REMODELING ON THE SECOND FLOOR. ONCE ORDER IS RESTORED I MOST CERTAINLY WILL MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FOR THEM TO CLEAN THE ENTIRE HOUSE. I WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED THAT THE COMPANY WAS WILLING TO TAKE A SMALLER JOB TO START.

I phoned CLS owner, Neal Franklin and arranged an initial meeting to discuss his company services and what we wanted to have done. He presented a very professional notebook with photos of some of the services ha could provide as well as explained his background leading to founding his company. He explained the products he uses and why as well as described, in detail, the kind of vacuums he uses. SInce I have asthma, this was important to us. We scheduled a day for our job to be done via email. Neal Franklin, and employee, Matt, arrived promptly at 10:00AM. We briefly reviewed the scope of the job and they started spring cleaning our living room and dining room. Neal and Matt covered every square inch of these 3 rooms and kept on a steady pace with no unnecessary chatting while they worked. They were finished in 4 hrs. 15 minutes. We were very pleased with their work. Everything sparkled and the lemon oil scent was very pleasingly clean smelling. We will be calling them again and look forward to having our home cleaned thoroughly and maintained by CLS.

The team from Contemporary Living Services has been great to work with. Today they clean our home every two weeks and do a great job. Their "green" approach to cleaning reduces the number of chemicals used in our home while leaving our house clean and smelling great. Their attention to detail and desire to get it just right has been very welcome. Neal and the team are a pleasure to work with and we are very glad that we found them. I would highly recommend them to others.
