READ THE YELP REVIEWS!!!!! Had I read those reviews, I would have NEVER, EVER hired <br /> these people!!! The vast majority of people there had terrible experiences. I made a big mistake by ignoring the ?F? reviews here on Angie?s List. I told myself that plenty of folks had good experiences, so the others must be an anomaly. The ?F?s are there for a reason. Heed them. <br /> I had initially planned to buy the Angie?s List deal for $99 and 6 hours of work. But I was unable to find their hours on the site, so I contacted them directly, to find out if they worked on Saturdays. I didn?t want to be stuck with a purchase that I couldn?t use. The guy in charge (Rosember Gonzalez), responded, and basically said that there are ?limitations? in the deal, and <br /> that I should just go through them directly. This seemed sketchy to me. Clearly he was trying to bypass Angie?s List, so that he <br /> wouldn?t lose whatever percentage they take. Although I was a bit uncomfortable with this, I didn?t really have time to shop around, so I went with it. <br /> First of all, they were late, almost an hour. I was willing to let it go. Unfortunately there was more. The cleaning ladies were fine. Very nice and very thorough. I was impressed with their work?until 4 days later, when we noticed that they had broken a <br /> one-of-a-kind statuette. The professional thing to do would have been to let us know and apologize. Not to pretend it didn?t happen, and hope we wouldn?t notice. <br /> Mr. Gonzalez gave me the estimate of $120 based on 3 cleaners, working for 2 hours. But the day of, he said that he was unable to come. It didn?t bother me, I figured the house would still get clean. When the work was done, I wondered if the price would change since it was only 2 cleaners. This was my first time having house cleaners, and I really was unsure how the whole pricing <br /> thing worked. So I called Mr. Gonzalez while the ladies were still there, but he didn?t answer. Not wanting to keep ladies waiting <br /> while I sorted this out, I paid them the original amount ($120), plus a GENEROUS tip. After they left, he called me back. I asked about it, and he said that since there were only 2 workers, I would be refunded $30. We agreed he would take care of it when he <br /> arrived to pick them up. He would call me, since I was going to be in theyard. Guess what? He picked them up and took off. I never got a call. I half expected to see the cash in the mailbox the next day, but nope. Nothing. And guess what? When I <br /> emailed him about it, I got no response whatsoever. And NOW that I have discovered the broken statuette, I am absolutely LIVID. I will NEVER do business with them again, and would STRONGLY suggest that you don?t either. Yes the house is clean, but the fact that I was manipulated and lied to, has left a VERY bad taste in my mouth. <br /> UPDATE: <br /> Just prior to writing this review, I made one last ditch attempt to contact Mr. Gonzalez. I emailed him letting him know that since he clearly had no intention of responding to my email, I was letting him know to expect an ?F? review here. He responded with an email in which he made several assertions that were ridiculous. For example, he said that he told me NOT to pay the ladies (untrue, I clearly told him that I had already paid them) and that he assumed since I had paid, I was fine with the amount. Hence, no phone call or refund. If that were the case, why had I bothered calling him in the first place?!?! And we had clearly agreed that he would call upon arrival so we could sort it out. He said that it was ?weird? that I didn?t discover the <br /> broken item until 4 days later, and that I told him everything was fine. At the time, yes, I thought so. I guess I didn?t think I needed to scour every inch of my home for damage, and then, only then, allow them to leave. Apparently I should have. He condescendingly said that since I was making such a fuss over the money, that I must need it more than they <br /> do. Wow. SO, NOT THE POINT!!!! It?s called professionalism and honesty. And, of course, I certainly would not have given generous tips (or any for that matter) had I discovered that something was broken. <br /> Having said all of that, he DID offer to pay the refund he owed me and whatever else I deemed appropriate for the damage. But I intend to decline. I would just prefer to have no further interactions with him or his company. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
