What customers said about cleaning
Gwen always has a smile with her service. She is very thorough with her work & leaves nothing undone. My husband & I have had many other service cleaners & we say Gwen is the best! We highly recommend her but don't take her away from our time!
I have had the best experience with the Two Maids in a mop family. Alexis and Natalie were the most recent team mates here and did a fantastic job, Rue we missed you today. Thank you to the entire Two maids and a mop team.
This post is about our wonderful cleaner Becca. When we started with Two Maids we had a variety of cleaners and the service was adequate with a couple of redos. For the past several months, we have solely had Becca. I can’t rave enough about her! She takes pride in her work and always does an A+ job!
We’ve used this service for over two years now and are still happy! Our cleaner Gwen is great!
Becca has done an amazing job with her cleans!! I love to come home and be able to take a deep breath and just relax in my clean home! Very appreciative of her hard work, never disappointed !
Excellent cleaning service. Started with a deep clean at first and was on the fence about signing up for monthly cleans, but I was convinced that it is worth it after the first time. For my first monthly regular clean, I had Mariah and Larissa and they did a great job. Thanks!

How we grade
Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.
Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.
Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.
Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.
Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
