Desperate Housemaids No Longer In Business

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

We booked them through Livingsocial to come and clean a 1400 sq ft bungalow. From the moment we booked I felt there was a problem as they advised the three hours cleaning would be two people for 1 & 1/2 hours and that someone would call us back to confirm the booking time. When no one called me back, I called again a week later and was told that the cleaning date was confirmed. This was almost two months ago and the house cleaning was a gift as we are getting married the day following the cleaning date that was booked. Yesterday, only one week before the wedding, they called to tell us they would not honour the coupon as they no longer had someone working in this area (Bowmanville/ Newcastle). I have the feeling there never was anyone in this area and it only suited them if they had no other bookings. Best advice I give people is Stay Away from Desperate Housemaids.

I would like to say thank you to your staff for their excellent service and caring personality. I have a special needs child and they always take the opportunity to say hello to her and ask how she is doing. Not only do I get the service of fantastic experts in cleaning my home but the comfort of two people that I trust and enjoy seeing. They also go above and beyond when it comes to cleaning our home. I never have to ask for something to be done as they are experts in knowing what needs to be done and they get it done in a timely fashion. Once again thank you for the peace of mind that you have given us in knowing our home is clean and the comfort of providing two excellent people.

Oh, and I'd like to mention that I am very pleased with the work your staff is doing at our house. They attend to every detail and leave my house spick-and-span every week. Thank you.

Very reliable and high quality company. The Cleaning ladies are lovely. I am very pleased with the work. I have been a client of Desperate housemaids now from July of 2009.
Thank you.

I have a 3000 sq. ft. home with a finished basement. Usually it takes the Desperate Housemaids crew 2.5 sometimes 3 hours. Mind you everything is done, the way I like it. I've been with Desperate Housemaids for 1.5 years now and don't think I'm going to stop any time soon. Bottom line, "flawless".

Ladies,

Let me tell you, you guys did an amazing job last week. I've had several companies in my home since last year (since the twins). Kim and Tracey did the best job by far. Thank god for you and the office team at DHM. Currently booked for weekly service and don't mind paying the price for a job well done.

I like that its two girls at the same time they work very efficiently and its takes half the time as oppose to one person. I feel that this is the most important part, they do very well and since I have a baby it is a lot easier for me.

I have always been satisfied with the service provided. The maids are punctual, or plan ahead to let us know of any schedule changes. I have found the entire team to be polite and professional at all times. Service provided inside of the home has always met my expectations. As a measure of how much respect the maids have for the homes they visit, our pets are comfortable with the maids. In fact, our pets follow the maids around as they work.
- I never had any issue with service. They are always on time and would always call if ladies will run a little late. Service inside the house is always what I expect, my wife is always pleased. I have a cat that actually follows the ladies around when they clean which I find very funny other than that ladies are great.
