What is the difference between Merry Maids and other cleaning companies?

Merry Maids® does more than just take care of homes—we take care of people. We give you back the time you deserve so that you can focus on what matters most. We have 40 years of experience in professional home cleaning, which has allowed us to develop advanced, thorough processes that deliver unrivaled, worry-free results. That's our specialty. We clean hundreds of thousands of homes across the United States and Canada, and even in other countries like the United Kingdom and Japan. Our Merry Maids team understands the importance of earning and keeping your trust, which is why we clean thoroughly and efficiently while respecting your space. Our 5-Star Promise represents our commitment to ensuring premium customer satisfaction with every single cleaning.

Are your cleaning products safe for pets and children?

We know you strive to protect your kids’ and pets health and safety, and so do we! Merry Maids® uses environmentally friendly and pet-safe cleaning products.

Are your cleaners insured and bonded?

Yes, all Merry Maids® cleaners are insured and bonded so you can feel secure in your home cleaning choice.

How often should I schedule a deep cleaning service?

For most homeowners, a one-time deep cleaning every 6 to 12 months is usually sufficient. If you aren't receiving regular cleaning on a weekly or bi-monthly basis, you may want to schedule cleanings more frequently.

Can I ask for special requests or request focus on certain areas?

Yes! We are happy to accommodate any special requests you may have. If parts of your home are especially cluttered or untidy, our team can spend their time just on those areas so that you get the best value for your money. Common special requests we receive include: de-griming baseboards, cleaning inside cabinets, removing pet hair from furniture, and de-cluttering closets.

Ganelle has been part of our Merry Maids family since November 2021, and her positive energy and hard work make her an outstanding asset to our team.

In her free time, Ganelle loves to babysits her grandkids, and she loves to go to church on Sundays. She enjoys working at Merry Maids because it keeps her active and allows her to serve people. Plus, she truly appreciates having such great teammates and supportive bosses.

Ganelle's favorite cleaning tip?
“Spray the product as recommended for 15 minute in the oven before cleaning it - it saves you both time and product in the long run!”

A favorite story of Ganelle:
One time, while cleaning a house, Ganelle had a 10-minute conversation with a 87-year-old customer. After the cleaning, the customer called our office to express her gratitude for an outstanding cleaning, and she was so grateful with Ganelle for dedicating ten minutes of her time to speak to her. Kindness and sympathy can go a long way!

We’re grateful to have Ganelle on our team and love the enthusiasm she brings every day!
