I have been a customer for many years. Yes, they are a tad expensive. However, the employees are trustful, thorough, professional, and helpful. I feel very confident having them clean my house while I am not at home. I get excellent and consistent service. They are thorough and address any issues I may bring up. They are accommodating to my odd schedules. Frankly, they do a better job of cleaning my house and organizing my clutter than I could ever do. For all of these reasons and some others, I remain a loyal customer and recommend their services.

These peeps saved me at a time when I was physically incapacitated. A very kind friend saved the day and I was floored when a she send me a git card for April Lane. My prior attempts to find a cleaner on a temporary basis met with failure. Many other companies had very restrictive assessments with over-the-top details, or were ridiculously expensive, or had endless rules, or seemed to be only expert in roadblocks - not flexibility. April Lane staff did everything to help and listened to what I needed, and wow. we could not have been happier. Courtney was exceptional on every level imaginable. Not only are her cleaning skills insanely brilliant, but she is kind, jovial and a delight. What's not to love:

Our office is in the middle of being built but cleaning, as dusting and mopping was a must. April Lane's came to the rescue with a top notch service. Seriously, you could eat from the floor after they left. Totally recommend is an under statement! Service: Office & workplace cleaning

WOW! I am blown away. I at first hesitated to hire a cleaning service because we are fairly tidy and only needed help with a few specific areas (bathrooms and kitchen). Every cleaning company I found before this one had package prices and would only clean essentially the whole house. Being able to narrow the cleaning to the areas that need it most made this service accessible and affordable for us.
We previously hired Green Cleaning Seattle and were dissatisfied. One of their cleaners didn't wear a proper face mask, and after nine hours, they had cleaned only the kitchen and one bathroom - and not all that well. I was completely floored to see how fast and how well April Lane's cleaners worked. In only 3 hours, they got our kitchen and bathrooms completely sparkling. This service is well worth it, highly customizable, and affordable. From start to finish, booking this service and having the cleaners come was smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this service.

We asked to clean just our kitchen and bathrooms, and we're happy with the results and the process! The service had asked us questions about what we wanted and made an appointment; the 2 cleaners showed up right at the start of the appointment window and obviously had read the notes from us. They were friendly and efficient, talked to us for a minute about the job and asked about extra tasks to do if they finished up early.
We opted to leave while they cleaned for everyone's covid safety so they let us know it should take 3 hours; while we were on our way back they called to let us know they were finishing up. They did the extra task, which was lovely to come back to.
