House Cleaners
 
I have been using ultra kleanerz for about two months now and they do a great job. I have them in every other week. If you are looking for a cleaning service I highly recommend them. (352) 461-4971 :thumbup:

Having never had a cleaning person, I was wondering what would be the typical three hour jobs that one would expect them to do. Other posters have said they pay $45 for three hours. Is this "light" cleaning?
I assume bathrooms, kitchen, vacuuming ????

My husband just spent three hours using Amaz and Lime Away on the clear glass shower door up here. He said he wouldn't do it for $45....but would charge $300 for the time he spent. I said "No one would hire you".

As I just said to hubby, when I was young, I could clean my entire house in one day, or even half a day.

.........now I have to pace myself to do a little here and a little there. I'm beginning to think it's "time" to get some help, both up here and if we do relocate to TV........for sure. .....although one nice all on one level home would be heaven after three levels up here. No steps sounds great.

Thanks in advance. The spirit is willing but the body is weak.

I don 't know who is getting 3 hours of cleaning for $45. I researched cleaners in the area and interviewed 3 and all of them charged $75. The first cleaning took 3 hours and now the cleaner I chose comes every other week and usually spends between 1 hr and 1-1/2 hours. They rotate between cleaning baseboards and cleaning blinds, along with the other duties. I am very pleased with the new cleaners, but if I could get 3 hours for $15, I'd sign up with them.

I hope my memory is correct but that is what I read. I think it was Red Witch? I'll look it up. I also thought it was low, unless I misunderstood.

I pay $60 every 2 weeks. I have a 3/2 ranch. Am super-satisfied with the service I use and would highly recommend. They charge between $50-$75 based on home size & what's requested. My neighbor just started using them and are paying $65 (same size home, but all tile.) You can PM me for contact info if you like.

Oh yeah and when you recommend someone you get $10 off your next clean so if you choose ultra kleanerz mention me. ;)

I forgot to say that they also sweep the lanai and wipe down the table. Sounds like we're all in the right ballpark.

I've used Daisy Maids (352-314-9070) for years.

I have two gals every month; not always the same ones, but often.

They're always on time (often early, but they call ahead). They do a really thorough job throughout my Gardenia. They understand my wooden floors. They understand that The Cat has certain privileges!

Some folks think that the monthly $125 is excessive. But, it jibes with what I used to pay "up north," and I get a h*** of a lot more here!

Highly recommend them!

They do a good job. I would think you get what you pay for that goes for just about everything. They do a great job.

It is a quirk with me that I can't enjoy having someone else clean my house.

Now I know I am gonna lose a lot of friends when I say I kinda like to clean my house. I also like to grocery shop and I really enjoy cooking.

Years past when my job had a lot of traveling, I hired my house cleaned. I always felt like a fifth wheel if I was home during the cleaning...and guilty, somehow. We Ohio girls can be stubborn and opinionated and terribly independant.

Just sayin....

Talk about quirk, my wife would go crazy cleaning the house the day before the cleaning lady would come...she didn`t want her to think we where dirty...
