Cleaning Services

Hey CT Nesties!  Long time no post :-) I see you all still have th cutest lil ones out there.  Hope all is well.

I am posting b/c I was wondering if someone can recommend a cleaning service that does a good job.  We are trying to get some spring cleaning done and I have 6 long weeks ahead of me with work and have been sick forever.  I would like to get some help without bugging my friends. TIA!

Re: Cleaning Services

  • Where are you located?
  • I am from the Hartford area.

  • Mine is great... She is not a service she is one person... She is a mother of 2 also... Not sure if that makes a diff one way or another... Anyway she does a fantastic Job and only charges $30 bucks an hour... I looked at maid pro and those other company's and they are more expensive also they make you commit to once a month or every other week...

    Email me at

    AmberBengston at Gmail dot com if you want her name and phone number!

  • Admiral in South Windsor does a whole house cleaning with a crew.   I believe they did my mother in laws for around 200?   But it was floor to ceiling, washing walls extra to remove dust from having her floors refinished.   It was VERY indepth.
  • Don't use the Molly Maid franchise that covers the Harford area (they are located in E. Hartford).  We used them for a couple of months until I realized what a crappy job they were doing.  They damaged some walls (they sprayed something purple, I have no idea what, and it left marks on the paint even after I had them come out and remove it) and I *think* they were smoking in the house because I came home unexpectedly one day while they were there and the living room reeked of cigarette smoke and I found tons of cans of air freshner in the trash. 

    We're using a woman who works on her own now but I don't think she is taking any more clients for the time being.  I'll ask when I talk to her on Wednesday, though!  She charges $25/hour and does a great job, and is super nice and easy to work with.  In general I think I would recommend avoiding the franchise places if you can.
