We have used the Clean Sweep for years. Especially when selling homes. My realtor had recommended a cleaning company and when they did not show up on the arranged date, i called Laura from the Clean Sweep. They showed up as promised and did a thorough job making the house shine the day before the Open House. I am convinced that they are part of the reason we accepted an offer the day after the open house. We were so pleased that we had them come back and clean after we moved out. i highly recommend the Clean Sweep!

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Ernesto and Christina! My home has never been this clean, I have always considered myself a good housekeeper. The reason why I contacted Clean Sweep was we had some work done in the house and need a really good cleaning!

The Clean Sweep has arranged to have a wonderful team to clean the home that had just had 3 months of construction. They were so detail-oriented, they left the home spotless and shining brilliantly through the just-cleaned windows. I couldn't be happier. Now I, a Realtor, can put the house on the market and get a wonderful price for my client. Laura Arcaya, the owner, conducted my project in a way that was effortless for me. She runs her business completely professionally. Thank you, Laura! It's such a pleasure to work with someone who does what she says she's going to do.

The Clean Sweep service was absolutely seamless! We had a last minute move to organize and needed a perfect clean done at the last minute on a Sunday. Cue Clean Sweep to the rescue! Laura connected us with Norma and Jesus who did a wonderful job and left everything immaculate - many thanks to everyone involved for a job well done! Alexia

Clean Sweep referred the amazing AB Cleaning team led by super Ernesto, who did a wonderful job on a move-in deep clean. He got into so many nooks and crannies and left our house sparkling clean.

As a long-time client of the Clean Sweep Domestic Referral Agency, I can't speak highly enough of their services. Their housekeeping staff is prompt, efficient, and reasonable. They do an outstanding job cleaning our home from top to bottom. Nothing is missed or overlooked. In addition to biweekly housecleaning, we have used the Clean Sweep services for window washing and post-construction move-in deep cleaning.

The results were excellent, as expected. Laura is a delighted, always flexible and prompt. She bends out of her way to accommodate schedule adjustments. If you need a housekeeping service, you will not find a better resource than the Clean Sweep Domestic Referral Agency. Steve Orinda, CA

The Clean Sweep is a wonderful agency that I have used off and on for many years. When my mother started having difficulties, I thought immediately of Laura at Clean Sweep who was able to find the perfect housekeeper for mom. Karina has been wonderful - responsible, honest, and hard working. I am very grateful for Clean Sweep!

Worst experience. - Made an appointment at 2:30 to do move-out cleaning but the couple (ILLIANNA & Her Partner) came 1.5 hours later (4:05) -- that's ok I didn't complain although it's already a bad sign. - Showed them around the house and they told for $220 they will clean everything. I was very tired and stressed out about the moving and just handed them the check, left the old house with happy feeling someone professional will help me.

It was a hard day for me though. - Next day, I stopped by at the old house. Very disappointed and shocked that they didn't even SWEEP, MOP the floor in all rooms (entrance, Livng rooms 2, Kitchen, Laundry room, Master Bathroom). What they have done just clean up the fridge, microwave, stove and my 2.5 bathrooms. - I called the agent about the condition.

She contacted the cleaners and told me that they couldn't sweep the floor because there were boxes in the entrance hall. -- FYI, all the boxes only in the entrance hall (i organized very neatly so they could cleanup easily). What about in the other rooms? All rooms are empty no boxes at all! They just make an excuse. - Suddenly on that day, I got a voice mail telling they were in front of my old house. And, I missed the call because I was in the doctor.

After I called back the agent, she only said that the cleaners already left the house bc they have another appointment and that's the only opportunity that I have. What the HECK? You can't just come to the house without any appointment first! - There was no smart solution AT ALL. The agent could have just send someone else to come to my old house or arrangge another day.

I was very upset until I feel sick to deal with them again. This is just my experience with them. Just be careful when you hire them, make sure you didn't get ripped off.

I've been tardy for supplying a review, but this is from 12/16 to present. I needed to hire a weekly cleaning team for my ill father- I shopped around and decided to use Clean Sweep based upon the reviews. I talked to Laura about my concerns, and she picked out Nancy & Isabella, who were good with elderly people. Laura followed up with us, to make sure that we liked them.

Since hiring them my father tells me every day how much he appreciates them- not only do they clean his place, but do his laundry and assorted other things that he really cannot do anymore (they're going to get a great bonus come the holiday times). Even my Dad's brother (who was visiting) remarked how efficient N & I were. Thank you Laura, for choosing the perfect team for my Dad- we really appreciate what you've done for us.

We started using Clean Sweep under an Emergency Situation, and they came to the rescue. They were very flexible when we needed cleaners to come when we wanted, and when we wanted cleaners to only come at a certain time they were able to meet our needs. We have two teenage sons and money was often left around the house. They were very trustworthy and were able to deal with the messes my son's made.

I used the Clean Sweep many years ago, when I used to have regular housekeeping service. Since I moved into my new home I have tried several different providers, but I ended up coming back to and staying with the Clean Sweep because they are phenomenal! Rita does a beautiful and thorough job cleaning my home and always does something extra. I came home last night, again, to a clean refrigerator. Just awesome, makes me smile. I highly recommend this service. Laura, the owner, is accommodating, a good communicator and takes pride in hiring only the best.

Laura at the Clean Sweep is a great communicator and really makes things happen for me. In my business as a Realtor I sometimes don't have a week's notice to give her when I need help getting a property cleaned out. Her people consistently do a great job! Laura and her company are amazing. Highly recommend.

I've been using the Clean Sweep Housekeeping Agency for many, many years now. They are great communicators and have accommodated our sometimes crazy schedule and special requests with professionalism and a willingness to figure out solutions to our problems. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Clean sweep is a wonderful service. I spoke with Laura and she was professional and very responsive. I arranged next day service. A team of three cleaned my house in under 2 hours. It was a treat to return home from a trip to a sparkling clean house.
