Nicole's work was wonderful to come home too! Everything was spotless and well organized. Hope I can work with her again!!

Michele S.

Super punctual, cleaned quickly - everything looks great. Would absolutely have her back! Also, am home with a new baby and she was extremely accommodating and kind. :)

Malcolm K.

Sharnetta was diligent and professional and did a great job cleaning and neatening my one-bedroom apartment.

Melissa L.

I am so grateful for Shannon! She cleans with such attention to detail and a great attitude. The house is a different place after she comes.

Maureen H.

Dory Landry is conscientious and detailed. He is a pleasant man and made me feel comfortable with him in my home.

Erin T.

We've used Brigida a number of times and we won't use anyone else! I always come home to an apartment that smells perfect and looks so organized.

Megan M.

Okeoghene always goes above and beyond! Very appreciative of his attention to detail and doing the little things as well as the big cleans. Thank you!

Carol A.

Stephen is the best cleaner I've had. I honestly can't say enough good things about Stephen. He is extremely well organized and pays attention to the smallest details. He's cleaned spots I never even knew were possible. Stefan is an excellent conversationalist and amazing communicator. He really listens to your needs. Stephen has a wonderful personality and very friendly. Even my mom's standoffish Chihuahua comes out to greet Stephen & begs to be petted. Stephen even found her favorite toy we had been looking for,for months! In my opinion Stephen is an asset to Handy, he really knows how to meet clients needs. I'm looking forward to my next booking with Stephen.

Rachel P.

I've done Handy six or so times. It has always been good but Taiwo was hands down the best. He was SO detail oriented and thorough!

Wan Y.

This is my first booking with her. She is great. And the place is so much better after she cleaned it.

In addition, the cleaning service offered by professionals using Handy comes at a clear, competitive rate so you know what you’re paying in advance, without any hidden fees or charges along the way.
