Need House Cleaners

Would you recommend your housecleaners? I need a crew of 2 to 4 people to come clean my house regularly. I want people who do a good job consistently, not break things or scratch the furniture carelessly, and are trustworthy.

I have tried a couple of groups, but they broke things that were avoidable (dropping my hair dryer, cracking a window, ...). Now, I am weary of trying more groups without GLOWING recommendations. Thank you in advance.

What can I do next?

Another mom recommended Cambrian cleaners to us after our twins were born. We've only had them for about 7 mos but the crew is pleasant & does a good job. We haven't had any issues with breakage or loss of goods.

I have an amazing housekeeper named Beh. He comes three days a week for a few hours, cleans up the kitchen, washes, folds and puts the laundry away, sweeps the floors, vacuums, etc. Once a week he deep cleans the bathrooms and bedrooms, dusts, etc.

His normal gig is doing once a week (or every 2 weeks) housecleaning for people, so you don't have to have him come over as often as I do. I just need help with the more everyday aspects of cleaning, like dishes and laundry, that's why I have him on that schedule.

He is wonderful and I would recommend him to anyone. Children LOVE him. My baby would follow him around the entire time he was here if he could. My 4 year old talks to him about all kinds of things, and I have to tell him to leave Beh alone and stop bothering him! But he loves the kids too.

I thought it might be weird to have a strange man in the house 3 days a week, but he is so unobtrusive, courteous and professional, I don't mind at all. He knows when to stay out of my way, and when it's OK to chat a little.

He takes a little while to train, but he asks lots of questions and is very careful about doing things the way you like them. He loves feedback, so if you prefer something done a different way, just tell him.

Now he just comes in and does his thing. He knows our house like the back of his hand and can pitch in wherever I need him.

Before I found him we had a cleaning service come 2x a month, but it was little or no help, since what I really needed help with was dishes and laundry and the daily household grind. Also, they broke things, did not show up on time, were impossible to get ahold of by phone, and were rude to me when they were in the house. I felt like I had to leave the house when they came.

Beh also does windows, organizes cupboards, carries heavy shipping boxes for me, pretty much anything I need him to do. Did I mention that he is awesome? I would trust him with my life, much less my house.

He is looking for extra work right now, since his mother was recently hospitalized, and the family does not have health insurance. Yes, he's a wonderful son to his mom too. It simply doesn't get any better than Beh. I CANNOT recommend him highly enough.

Here's his contact info:

Joe Gayton has a great group of gals who come in and do a very quick, but thorough job. They work from San Francisco down the peninsula. Reasonable prices too. Let him know that Ria recommended him. ###-###-####

While I personally don't use a house keeper, I have several friends who do. Diana Jiron is the owner of Xolotlan Cleaning Services and her phone # is ###-###-####. I am told she is meticulous, doesn't break things, pays attention to detail AND uses cleansers that are family and environment friendly. She will come as often, or as seldom as you want and will take care of as much cleaning as you require.
Good luck, L. A.
