Maid Service

My roommate and I are getting too lazy to clean our place and we both agreed on splitting the cost to bring in a maid for a one time thing. Has anybody had any experience with maids? Any of them you would recommend? I live in east van if that matters. We live in a 2 bedroom basement suite no bigger than 600sqft. Any idea on how much it would cost? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Take caution with who you hire because they do tend to steal stuff. Check references if possible even if it's a one time thing.

You deserve that fail for being too lazy to clean your own damn suite. If you're serious about wasting money on a maid, try molly maid or hire a friend to do it.

I'm not here for financial advice. I'm here for suggestions on a maid. If you can't help me with that then please stfu. I clean my place all the time and like I said it's a one time thing. I've check places like CL and they have maids charging $20 an hour. If the total cost is $100 and my share is only $50, then what's wrong with that? I work hard for my money and I would like to come home to a professionally cleaned place once in a while.

sounds like some of these guys are still used to taking orders from their parents. some people have better things to do than clean. and hey, maybe they dont, but the fact remains - let the experts do what they're good at. cleaners clean

I dunno how much truth is in that based on what I've seen after 2:30pm.

At first I was going to make a comment about how lazy someone must be if they can't clean a 600sq foot apartment... but then I remembered how good of a night I had last night, so I figured I'd be nice.

gf's family has a maid come in once a week - she's a chinese lady who does it for various families and charges them $30 in cash everytime she comes in for the whole house - just basic stuff.
So, yeah, i would think there would be others like that advertising for similar rates? But someone up there said they do steal, so if that's true, maybe it's better to be more cautious haha...maybe hire someone cheap and then be in the house as they clean, so they don't steal? lol

$30 really isn't a lot, a friend of mine has a maid who does something similar twice a month, except she charges like $100 a time.
Granted, he lives in a pretty big house, but for $30 I'm wondering how much cleaning she actually does.

Why are some people hating on the op? If the guy can afford it why not? Same thing with people taking their cars to car washes/detailing. It is not because they are lazy , but they have the money to PAY someone else do it that are better at it.

Yes thank you! That is exactly my point. Yes I am lazy at times but have you guys never paid for a service that you could've done yourself? Calling pizza for delivery, even eating at a resturant. You can cook it at home but you're paying someone else to cook it and serve it to you. And last time I checked, $50 isn't alot of money.

to answer your question: when u give a bunch of well off young males the ability to anonymously post in a forum on a topic they are unfamiliar with, at least 3/4 will take that opportunity to critisize and voice their idiotic opinions. its retarded but at the same time op shouldnt really be surprised that asking a maid question on a forum fulla car enthusiasts will not yield te most helpful replies :-p

actually, i know how hard 600sq feet can be to clean. i rarely cleaned but when i did, everything was clean, behind the couches, the blinds, every bit of dust everywhere, it takes all fucking day for me to do it, plus changing the bed sheets, and towels and laundry. complete wipedown

My mom has two come by once a week for a few hours. I think she pays about $250 a month. If I could afford a maid I'd hire one to clean my floors and bathrooms to but it's not in the budget.

On a more serious non asshole note, I know of a very good reliable and honest maid that cleans my Mom's house once a week. PM me if interested
