But he does not come and just vacuum, dust, etc. like a maid service, my neighbor does those things, but neither she nor her hubby can do things like clean the light fixtures, clean the TOPS of the china cabinet, etc. and one of things he does is turn and or rotate their mattress every so many months. She is able to steam mop her kitchen floor, but he pulls out the furniture and things like the refrigerator stove, etc. every 6 months or so to do a complete cleaning. You get the idea. So it's different than just having a woman come do the house cleaning once a week, so I am not sure what you call that kind of help he provides. Recently he put up a shower bar for them. Most cleaning women will not, can not, or do not, rearrange the furniture for you every so often, or when you tire of the current arrangement. Once a year he puts new batteries in all the smoke and CD alarms... the fire department would do that for them, but he just does that when he comes for his January regular day. He came last week and washed the lanai windows for them.

He sounds wonderful. If you could get his information, that would be awesome. Hopefully, he doesn’t get so inundated with calls he will be too busy to help everyone.
