"Thank you for your review. I am pleased that you were completely satisfied with the deep cleaning at the time of your move out from your home in Edgewood. I look forward to provide house cleaning at your new home when needed."
"I am happy that you were completely satisfied and would look forward to hearing from you again when you want to schedule your house cleaning. Thank you."
We are very please with his work. He arrives on time and works until the
the job is complete.
I arranged through Steve, his translator, for Hander to come the following Monday, Memorial Day! I was thrilled to not have to miss a work day so it was perfect that he was free and willing to work on what is a Holiday for Americans but not for him. (Hander is from Brazil). He arrived with Steve promptly at 9:00 am, we went through the house and discussed what was to be done, Steve left, and Hander proceeded to work on my house from top to bottom and in every nook and cranny. He never let up on his energy level and never even took a break! I encouraged him to stop to maybe eat something or sit down for a cold drink, but he refused! He literally worked straight through till around 6:45 pm. I have wood floors throughout and wood built-in cabinets, plus picture rails which get filled with dust- He used Murphy Oil soap on all of the wood- with excellent results. He cleaned,dusted and wiped down everything in my house! Baseboards, windows, 3 bedrooms, bathroom with tons of hard to clean small tile, living room, dining room, kitchen...the refrigerator is like brand new and he cleaned the oven...I am very happy! And he cleaned all of my knick knacks in the house and placed them more artistically than I had originally placed them. I feel so fortunate to have my house a home again- and one that belongs in a magazine...seriously. Hander was excellent!!!! He is a true gentleman with very high work standards and ethics. He is a perfectionist, and truly aims to please the customer- he would ask me to look at each room when he was finished to see if there was anything else I wanted done- and if I was pleased. I had no problem whatsoever communicating with him- we managed just fine without Steve! I highly recommend HG for your cleaning needs! You will not get a better experience - I can promise you that.
Hander arrived on time and used the cleaning products I requested. He asked me several times to check his work to be sure it met my satisfaction. My house has never been this clean. I highly recommend this company and I plan to hire Hander again.
"Happy New Year! I appreciate your positive comments and I am most pleased that you were completely satisified. I look forward to hearing from you again when you need house cleaning. Hander 412 452 6406"
From the reviews it appeared that the owner Hander would be the person doing the cleaning. On the day however he arrived with another person who did not speak any English. He showed him around and my husband was very explicit about the things we wanted (and didn't want) done. For example, we had just changed the bed linen and vacuumed, and didn't want much touched in our bedroom except the dusting, baseboards, ceiling fan. The one guy then left.
The cleaner was here for 7 hours until my husband finally had to ask him to go as he had things to do. It was greatly frustrating for him because he was unable to communicate with the man. They asked us for a broom and a ladder - I would have thought if you didn't provide supplies that you would tell the owner before you arrived. Hubby asked if they needed cleaning supplies and was told "no" initially.
It became clear that things would not be done to expectations when the man just used windex to clean everything, including our hardwood floors. He did not clean the kitchen appliances or wipe the cabinets. The bottom of the fridge was the one thing my husband asked to please get done if nothing else did; wasn't done. The powder room was not touched. The downstairs was basically not touched except the kitchen floor was mopped and the counters wiped. The worst thing - he didn't even bring a bucket, and then not only didn't ask for one (we do have one he could have used) - he emptied our bathroom trash can and used that as a bucket. I'm sorry, washing my floors out of the bathroom trash can is not acceptable "cleaning".
Overall - the experience was stressful for my husband, we didn't really get most things we wanted done, and it was a complete waste of money and basically a whole day. If you speak the cleaner's language, it would perhaps be less annoying as you could at least explain what was happening on the day. I understand we ran out of time, but in that time all that was accomplished was cleaning one master bathroom and 2 BR. We had to move the bed later as he unplugged our lamps, and there were piles of dust back there that weren't even cleaned. I could easily have done this quality of work for myself for free, pregnant or not.
UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO REVIEW: We did not discuss with the company when they called afterwards, as they were unable to speak English when here, and we did not want to arrange for further cleaning as we were not happy with the quality of the work. I did not need to be there, because my husband was. The fact remains that no supplies were brought to do the job, our trash can was used as a bucket to mop the floor with (yuk), and the job was not completed to a good quality in my opinion. I do not want a refund as the guy did work for several hours and should be paid. I just wouldn't use them again.
"My goal is 100% satisfaction and I regret that you, (member name removed), are not satisfied, however why when your husband was contacted by phone after not allowing me to complete the job he did not report any complaint and said everything was fine. Why couldn't he or you speak with me frankly? Unfortunately, your review is not accurate. You were not present when I, Hander, personally did the work and I personally was there 7 hours, no other person performed the work. Similarly the description of my work and the products used to clean are not accurately reflected in your report. Your coupon was purchased approximately 1 month ago on Oct 16 and is the policy of Angie's List an attempt is made to schedule within 2 days of the request, Generally, when a person is in need of a cleaning service it is not for months in the future, however the date was selected at your preference. As indicated in earlier messages, this is a personal cleaning service and the number of hours spent to complete each house varies and depends on the size of the house, the condition of the house, and services needed, including deep cleaning of oven, microwave, etc. I did not complete the job because your husband did not want me to, however I was prepared to stay as long as necessary to complete the job and as promised leave your house sparkling clean. I am sorry that I have never had the opportunity to meet you and or speak with you directly, but in all of phone communication with your husband by my friend and translator and again when I arrived at your house, it was disclosed that my English is limited but that has never affected the quality of my work or limited my customer satisfaction. If you wish, I will make arrangements to have your money refunded, even though I worked at your house for 7 hours. If you wish to discuss further, please call me 412 452 6406"
"Thank you for your positive review and strong praise. I strive to provide complete and personalized service to each home I clean. I appreciate you referring me to friends and family members when they need house cleaning and I will look forward to returning at a future date."
"Your positive review is appreciated. I look forward to the opportunity to provide further house cleaning as needed. Thanks."
"Your comments are appreciated! Thank you for recommending me to your friends. I look forward to returning in November."
"I appreciate the positive review. It is my pleasure to provide personal service in cleaning your beautiful home. Please let me know if there is anything additional you would need. I hope you will refer me to anyone you know who would like to have their house cleaned."
The job was excellent and upon completion the house was beautifully cleaned.
All carpeted floors were vacuumed; the tiled surfaces were swept clean and washed; mirrors and glass surfaces cleaned; all areas meticulously dusted; the bathrooms thoroughy cleaned and sparkled upon completion. All trash bagged and removed. He offered to change all bed lines. He is conscientious, personable, and aims to please. He completed all tasks that were asked. He is punctual, reliable and trustworthy.
I highly recommend him!
