In their words
★★★★★The Modern Maid provides excellent carpet cleaning service. We will schedule this fantastic service again! Thank you!
Melody R.via Facebook
★★★★★The Modern Maid offers customizable cleaning plans and a la carte options. We met with them to get a quote and within a week they were there to do a deep clean of our home. The glass patio door was so clean that I thought it was open! They were extremely nice and pet friendly, thorough and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

★★★★★I appreciate Amanda and her crew squeezing me in at the last minute when my other cleaner canceled the day before my whole family was coming from England for my wedding! I'm super picky and asked them to detail the baseboards, and I was pleasantly surprised when I came home. They even sent me a gift card for our wedding!

★★★★★Modern Maid did a remarkably thorough cleaning of the house we recently sold. It's an old house with some definite cleaning challenges, but I could not recommend their work more highly. Thank you!
