Five Star Housekeeping - A Referral Service
“We’re very pleased. We’ve had the same young woman at our home in Oakland for several months now. She knows what she’s doing and she has a nice attitude. If I ever want to make a change, or I want to ask questions, I can always get through.”

Customer Feedback:
Larry’s Extreme Clean
“Larry is amazing! I am a working mother with an unbelievably messy house. Between the pets and the kids, the carpet was scary. Larry got it all spotless in one day, and did it for 1/3 the price I was quoted by someone else!”

Customer Feedback:
Affordable Housecleaning
“We found him 2 years ago, and he is amazing. One of the best housecleaners we’ve ever had. He is very trustworthy— he has a key to our house, and even helped us out with our dog when my wife was in the hospital expecting quadruplets! He cleans the house across the street for two police officers, and we’ve hooked him up with a few other people as well.”
