A La Maid
We are a la maid, a small family-owned Connecticut cleaning company that also happens to be in the business of bettering lives! We are a company of people helping people and truly care about each and every one of our customers. We recognize that your personal and family time is valuable and shouldn't have to be spent cleaning.

We would love for you to let us do the work, so you can come home to a clean home, not to clean your home! The A la Maid crew is wonderful. The office and phone staff are always friendly, and the cleaners themselves are thorough and professional. They don't miss a thing and are far better than any other cleaning services I've used on the Shoreline.

They have no problem picking things up and dusting under them, and even cleaned my toaster! The bathrooms and kitchen sparkle. Thanks, A la Maid, for keeping my house tip-top. They were quick to reply to my phone call, very thorough and friendly on the phone, and came by the very same day for an estimate - so quick!
Services
Over 15 years ago, Amanda made the decision to start her own business, leaving behind her love of social work, in exchange for the opportunity to help others in a much different arena. Trading in the criminal justice system for marathon cleaning sessions, Amanda started the residential cleaning company, A la Maid.
Our cleaning team is staffed with a crew of cheerful, experienced and passionate staff. We believe the key to our success is our people. From the professional office to the kind and caring cleaning artists to the talented trainers. Over 15 years ago, I made the decision to start my own business, leaving behind my love of social work, in exchange for the opportunity to help others in a much different arena.
We love cleaning in Clinton, Connecticut! Although A la Maid's office administrator Barbara Lanza was reluctant to relay the real words of wisdom she routinely advises her cleaning crews, they do speak volumes about her passion for customer service. This ensures that I see the big picture. Those are the things that set us apart.
Hanging on Polly "the cleaner's" office wall is a poster from the popular children's show Bob the Builder. A testament to tenacity, each episode Bob and his team famously exclaim Can we fix it? Yes we can! Three years ago when Polly started cleaning in Norwich, Connecticut, she decided they needed a mantra of their own.
A la Maid is available for all levels of cleaning from annual or bi-annual deep cleanings to move-ins and move-outs, turn-key services, as well as recurring cleaning services ranging from weekly to monthly. We are willing to work with you to customize a plan that will suit your needs. Think of this as a spring cleaning you can schedule anytime!

This business is unable to hire any quality employees. Their “maids” stole from my parents house twice! Do not let them into your home! The first time they denied it could be their fault that jewelry was missing from our home. Once police investigated it was proven it was their employee and charges were pressed. They then promised a trusted employee would be the only one cleaning our home. They lied and items were taken a second time. DO Not hire them!!!!

I use this cleaning service weekly for my elderly grandmother. Since I live in Texas, I cannot help as much as I would like. Making appointments have been very easy, staff is friendly, and they do an EXCELLENT job at cleaning! Will continue to use this service as long as my grandmother needs it.

I'll admit, my house was gross. I moved into my husbands bachelor pad after we got married 2 months ago. He lived here for 14 years prior and it showed. He did what I call "man cleaning". The house needed a deep clean and beyond. Well, a la maid delivered and then some. Heather and her crew are amazing. I could not be happier. Years of dust and man dirt are gone. They got on their hands and knees and scrubbed everything. My floors look like new. My cabinets are sparkling. Everything was steamed and wiped down. I give them a million stars. They had a huge job and handled it like pros

I have been using A La Maid for well over a year. I have yet to have the same crew twice, although the crew chief repeats. How can a crew clean a house they are not familiar with? Their arrival time is a 2-hour window, so I can make no plans for anything. When they leave, I have about two hours of cleaning what they left out from the work order they bring with them. Toilet brushes are dry (thus unused), there are dust rings on the furniture, streaks on glass, dirt left on floors, etc. etc. And for this, they get top dollar. When I called to complain, I was told that I was too "negative

A La Maid helped my girlfriend and I for the holidays. When we have our 5 young kids together, life can get messy. So when it was time to invite our family and friends over, a la maid was our choice.
First off, they were on time. That's a big one. When you're trying to plan your day, it's nice to know that your day will go to plan when you aren't waiting for an appointment. On top of that, they were VERY efficient when it came to cleaning the house. There were enough people available to get the job done in a timely manner. I appreciate a strong work ethic when it comes to hiring vendors so when

Polly and her crew have been amazing! We typically leave a list of items we'd like given extra attention and haven't been disappointed at all. Coming home to a clean house with a toddler and another baby on the way is worth its weight in gold. I highly recommend Polly.

As an employee from the start of business 10 years ago, left due to moving, and then as an employee 8 years later in 2016, as a supplemental job to my primary, I have to say Amanda B., the owner, has mounted tremendous herds. The pay was fair, the mileage reimbursement sufficed, and the management team was well coordinated with payroll. Which is the most important for any employee at any job. Amanda started off scrubbing the floors herself, with myself and others. Eight years later, she has chosen to oversee the office side of the business, and put her faith in carefully selected veteran team leaders

I used this company for many years on a per call basis for a second home.
Their cleaning crew are wonderful but management and their customer service is very difficult to work with.
I do not recommend this company.

I started A La Maid because, based on their name and motto, I hoped to be able to tailor the services to my needs. I even had them clean my office. Unfortunately, my expectations didn't match their ability to deliver. The one thing that was most important to me was consistency. To keep this short, that's not what I got. Arrival time & same crew were critical to me, and if that matters to you, it's just not possible. The staff turnover, or other issues, seemed to interfere most of the time. The staff was always pleasant, the cleaning reasonably done,but my needs didn&apos
