I hired this company to do a one time cleaning. The cleaning lady I typically use fell ill so I looked around for a cleaning company that would deliver similar results. Unfortunately many of the companies I called either didn't answer or if they did, weren't able to accommodate my schedule and requests. Maid Patrol however was quick to respond and accommodate my requests. They were reasonably priced and did a good job. My place was in bad shape so they needed to send over a 2nd cleaner but I was satisfied with the result. I've since used them 2x and they've been consistent with the quality of cleaning.

My partner and I have used Maid Patrol several times now, and the one thing we've noticed is how consistent they are. Irrespective of the cleaner sent, they all do a good job. Perhaps we aren't as picky as others that use maid services in Toronto but we're satisfied with the service we've received thus far. Don't get me wrong, they do miss the occasional spot here and there but nothing major. Aside from their consistency, it's also very easy to make bookings or reschedule, which is very convenient.

Maid Patrol's amazing! I've been using their cleaning services on and off through out the years and figured it was about time I wrote a review. The few times I've tried the services of other maid companies, I've been less than impressed. From late cleaners to not being thorough while significantly overcharging. The cleaning professionals I've been provided thus far have been awesome, clean quickly, and always try to go above and beyond each time. I'd recommend this service to those of you looking for this to get done correctly the first time.

Just used Maid Patrol for the first time a few days back and I was very pleased with the process and outcome. Mindy was my cleaner and she did a very through job. I'm usually quite picky and slightly ocd about certain things but she was so accommodating. Though I hadn't paid for organizing services during the booking process, she went out of her way to rearrange and organize a few nicknacks on my beauty table and counter top. I certainly plan on using the service again.

I was pleased with the result. What I liked was that I paid a fixed price and got 2 cleaners (my property's larger than normal) that showed good attention to detail.

Their entire staff, from customer service to the cleaners were nice and professional. Most importantly, the quality of work was as you'd expect!

Emily did a great job on a move out clean for our condo. We just had some messy tenants move and the place needed a good home cleaning. Even though I was given a 2hour arrival window, she showed up about 15min early and did a great job getting everything back into decent shape. Gets a thumbs up from me. If you're in need of a good maid service, give them a try.

Ordered a condo cleaning last week. Other than the cleaner getting lost, no real complaints. I'd use their service again.
