Maven Maids Green Cleaning

I didn’t get to use Maven Maids –they were too busy. But Kevin called me back and left me a message with recommendations for other places that I could look into. Given the craziness of the holiday season I just thought it was the kindest thing a business could do and it made me feel like I was definitely missing out on using their service. Thanks Kevin for being so thoughtful and generous of your time.

Kevin that runs the company is the kind of guy that renews your faith in humanity. He’s just an all around awesome guy, and business wise is dedicated to outstanding service– he has been in the business a long time so knows what he’s doing, pays employees well so they stick around, and goes the distance to make sure clients have a beautiful, yummy smelling (sans-​toxins) home. I’ve worked with at least 4 different cleaning companies in the past and it’s hard to find one you can trust with your home and to do good, thorough work every time. You will be so happy with Maven Maids and coming home to a clean house is the best!

These fine folks clean our office space in south downtown. Everytime they come in they are very professional and never use harsh chemicals. Often times it can be a hassle to have people at your work that don’t know the flow and get in the way. This is not the case here. Fast & effective this crew would almost be ghost-​like if the men weren’t such lookers. ;) Give them a call. You won’t be disappointed.

No need to write a bunch. My experience has been pretty straight forward. We first used them for a move out clean and when my OCD landlord said the oven was not clean enough, one of the owners of the company came on a Saturday to clean it again. :) We also get a cleaning about every 6 months as a gift to our selves and they do a great job every time. I trust them to give them a key and just let them clean our house. It is so nice to come home to a thoroughly clean home without doing the work myself. Their rates are very reasonable and they are super friendly. I highly recommend them for your home.

Kevin and Karen run a responsive, service-​oriented green n’ clean business. I hired Maven Maids when pregnant over five years ago as I didn’t want any harsh chemicals in the house on the recommendation of friend. So far, they have not only been respectful during stressful family time (new baby!) and willing to accommodate schedule changes — they are SUPER nice people to boot and thoroughly vet the folks that become your team. At first engagement they do a walk through and then estimate the hours/​time by task. Once on the schedule your team shows up on time and ready to go. If you have specific tasks you need (we did when we moved) they are more than willing to work with you on a clean that meets your needs. Maven Maids is part of our family! Do yourself a favor and sign them up if you need a house cleaning.

Kevin and team are fantastic. Not only are they flexible and willing to accommodate your schedule/​needs, they are friendly and quick to respond to all e-​mails and phone calls.
Kevin, the owner, personally attended to an issue that arose after one of our cleanings. He was quick to respond, and helped rectify the situation ASAP.
Highly recommend Maven Maids!

They are a very small and very busy company and ended up referring me to another company.
This was my second time trying to connect to this company … and I was received by polite calls and emails… but this involved a bit of phone tag, slow-​ish responses to email messages and realizing their very booked schedule left me few options.
I wish them the best of luck but I hope they hire more people in the future so that they can handle phone calls and emails in a more timely manner and be able to offer their services to eager customers.

I cannot say enough great things about this company. Kevin runs a great little enterprise. They are thorough and respectful and they listen to feedback to get better.
Thanks for doing such a great job!

I am impressed with Maven Maids. They scheduled a «walk through appointment» prior to my actual cleaning so they could become acquainted with my home and so we could mutually agree upon my cleaning needs. I found Kevin and our cleaner to be trustworthy, professional, and nice. They were patient and accommodating of my dog and cat, too. I needed my house cleaned prior to a special event. They were fully booked, but worked it out in their schedule to accommodate my schedule. If we decide to move forward with ongoing cleaning services, we will go with Maven Maids.

It’s long overdue that I write this review, I’ve been using Maven Maids since probably Feb or March of this year and just adore these guys. I should preface this review with this: I had the most amazing cleaning team EVER when I lived in the mid-​west (they dusted off my lipglosses!), and when we moved to Seattle, I felt that Maven Maids came pretty darn close.
Maven Maids is family run, owned by a husband-​wife couple and employs mostly friends (no strangers off the streets). Depending where you live, you could get a different team, but I absolutely love the two that clean my place. They are nice, thorough and efficient.
I do pay a little more for these guys than I did my previous cleaners (also on Unilocal,but I won’t leave a review for them since I describe them as «tornadoes that come through your house — cleaning and destroying everything in their paths»). Maven Maids use all natural cleaners that they make themselves and use nothing toxic. I will warn you, you’ll need to crack your windows after they come, as most of their cleaners are vinegar based. Even after I mentioned the smell to them, they improved the cleaners, but no matter what, you can smell a little vinegar. I’d much rather have a little vinegar that is non-​toxic to me and my dog, than so much bleach that you nearly get a nosebleed (thank you «tornadoes»).
These guys are really thorough, I’ve come upstairs to see the gal dusting my artwork (who does that?! Love it!!) and cleaning out my toaster oven. If there’s an area that you want done differently, just let them know and they’ll change that going forward.
Every time they’ve come, my house has been cleaned just the way I like it – maybe they don’t dust off lipglosses, but they do everything else.

Kevin and the Maven Maids team are simply awesome! I had them clean our place biweekly for the entire year we lived in Seattle and could not be happier with their service. They were always prompt and thorough with great attention to detail. I love that they make their cleaning supplies, which work perfectly and smell great.
Most importantly, the people are just plain nice. My 3 year old son loved Kevin and was super excited to see him every other Thursday. All the team members always had a smile for him, which meant so much to me. We moved back to San Francisco and I wish they were here as well so I could hire them for our new place.
Hire Maven Maids immediately, you will be very happy that you did!

The Maven Maids Started cleaning my house off and on after I bought it 3 years ago. They are extremely professional and most of all trustworthy. I’ve been very impressed by each of their employees and confident that they will consistently, efficiently and sustainably clean my house every time. I often recommend them to friends.
Update: They did a great job on my kitchen today!

Maven Maids is an exceptional cleaning service primarily because of how much they CARE. They’re not «in it» for the drudgery of cleaning… they’re «in it» to make people exceptionally happy in their homes. They are thorough, considerate, prompt, and did I say, thorough?
In my own profession, I am often asked to recommend a good cleaning service and I always and highly recommend Maven Maids. My clients have been thrilled with their service, as am I.
They are fabulous.

I first hired Maven Maids Green Cleaning three months ago to do a deep clean on our three story house in preparation for a birthday party. I was drawn to their business because of their environmental philosophy which they put in practice (no nasty polluting chemicals, etc.), and I like that the owner is part of the cleaning crew and hires additional cleaners who are either college students or friends of the owners, so I have no worries about there being sketchy people coming into our home.
I’ve subsequently hired them to do monthly cleanings and have been really pleased with the results and wholeheartedly recommend them.
My only complaint might be considered a positive trait in some respects: their attention to detail can get in their way of making the best use of their time. e.g., when they first cleaned for us in preparation for a birthday party, I discovered one cleaner had cleaned our many glass bathroom cabinet shelves in our upstairs bathroom, which are pretty full with products and stuff and so would’ve required a tedious amount of work to remove all the items, clean, and then return the items to their respective shelves. It seemed like a lot of work that would’ve been better spent on areas of the home where the party was to be held. But in their defense, they did get the rest of the house adequately done in time. Only other complaint is that they haven’t thought to empty our bagless vacuum cleaner after using it which is always full by the time they are finished. They have their own vacuum in their car but I allow them to use our monster Dyson cleaner. I know they will empty it if I ask, but I keep forgetting to! These are the only reasons I won’t give them five stars right now.
