Our technician, Kostya, arrived the same day we requested service. He was respectful, and worked efficiently. We were very happy with the results - he cleaned the stairs going down to the basement, as well as a spot on our wool are rug. I would definitely use Raccoon Cleaning Services in the future and highly recommend them.

Hopefully I can find a better cleaning service because this company is terrible. They came an our late and left half hour early, but expected me to pay the full two hours and didn't want to make up for it. They've also consistently left early when they could have finished cleaning. They skipped an entire bathroom, and the employees tried to make me feel bad when they came back because they got yelled at for not doing their job. They also got upset when I had to reschedule due to a work emergency. When i tried to reschedule, they never responded, so I didn't get cleaning service that month. One of the women cleaned the range over the stove and ended up removing the paint and permanently damaging it. I even told them to stop coming because of the issues I've and and she just said I'll pass it in to our supervisor and figure out what happened but they never contacted me about it again. Please find a better service because this one will cause damage to your property or won't clean properly.

Excellent job. I was very satisfied when I walked back into my home after using their deep clean service. My only critique is I wish they would have used a better smelling cleaning product. It wasn't bad but something more lemon smelling never fails.

Response from the owner · a week ago

Dear Customer Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you were satisfied with our deep cleaning service and enjoyed coming back to a freshly cleaned home. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the cleaning products and their scent. Your suggestion for a fresh lemon fragrance is noted, and we’ll certainly keep it in mind for the future. Thank you for choosing Raccoon Cleaning Inc. We truly appreciate your trust and support! Best regards, Viki from Raccoon Cleaning Inc.

I couldn’t be happier with the amazing job he did cleaning my couch, chair, and ottoman! He worked incredibly hard, took his time, and paid close attention to every detail. Everything came out looking fantastic! The company’s prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality and amount of work he provided. It’s refreshing to find someone who takes such pride in his work without overcharging. I highly recommend them and will definitely use their services again!

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback, and for your kind words regarding the quality of the cleaning itself. We sincerely apologize for the frustration caused by the schedule delay and the communication breakdowns throughout your move. Moving is already a high-stress day, and we completely understand how shifting the appointment time threw off your tight schedule and affected the rest of your evening. We also apologize for any confusion regarding the final pricing extension. Our supervisor will be reaching out to you directly and shortly to discuss this issue, address your concerns, and make things right. We truly appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve our scheduling and communication processes. Best regards, Katie from Raccoon Cleaning Inc.
