I definitely would not recommend this service to anyone. If one is desperate enough to hire the Merry Maids of Rochester I would recommend a thorough walk through EVERY SINGLE TIME they come into the house. I have had several instances when I found damaged goods (including furniture and valuable decorative pieces) some time after they came through. Of course the owner refused to accept responsibility for the damage and was completely unhelpful with regards to financial compensation. I've also had instances when the house was obviously not cleaned AT ALL (not just a few dust bunnies under the bed, I mean not even touched) and I've had to call and make inquires in order to not be charged. I would not recommend this service to anyone I consider a friend!
