If you're looking for great service at a fair price, look no further than Ruth's House Cleaning services! I just had them do a "move-out" cleaning service today and yes, the house was a mess! Ruth and Mike made short work of this challenge and gave me a great looking, great smelling house! Ruth and Mike are hard working people who aim to please. And please me they did! Very highly recommended!

Nothing's better than having a clean home thanks to Ruth's House Cleaning Services from east county San Diego. This is a review for my personal home. However, they do vacation rentals, offices, small spaces and large spaces, and move outs. Since my original housekeeper got in a car accident and could not come anymore it was time to find a new service before school season. I found this business on Yelp and tried to book through yelp message.

At first I gave my dates in the end of July but was not granted anything since they are apparently so busy and booked up. So I had to wait for August until they had an opening. I kept checking in as well as they did so the communication was great. Michael, the husband of Ruth does all the communication: calls, texts, Yelp messages etc. he answers back swiftly.

They came over on a Saturday afternoon (I'm so use to a weekday so this was different for me). I met Michael, Ruth, and his nephew and niece who were all ready to get to work. They are very nice people. There's no language barrier. They were punctual (right on time). I had 4 people clean in exactly 2 hours. I'm not use to this usually it's 1 person for 4-6 hrs. I like the quickness as long as the cleaning is professional and thorough instead of rushed and not spotless (yes I'm very picky when it comes to cleaning).

Here's a few things I had to clean myself before/after: windows, oven, vacuum under cushions from couch, and wipe my fridge shelves since those were forgotten but mostly not included (please read their website for cleaning details). If you want something cleaned I would make a list and tell them exactly what you want cleaned for future visits so you are extremely happy with their services.

Yes they bring their own supplies and vacuum. I loved how clean the bathtubs and showers were, the kitchen was spotless (I like how you placed my kitchen table), living room was neat and orderly, floors were glistening, kids room was organized, and carpets free of dog hair. They take out the trash for you at the end.

I gave him my square footage and bedrooms and bathrooms info and I was quoted $185 for the first visit for my home space. The second visit Michael offered will be $120. Prices might vary for spaces so I would check with Michael if you want to book them.

Overall, they are reliable, punctual, communication is great, trustworthy, and hardworking. Thank you so much!

I have an old friend whose antique house had been neglected these past few years due to memory issues. As a point person for family who live out of state, there was an urgency to secure her living space while we are arranging for her care.
The need for a deep house cleaning was vital, and would add to her safety and well being. I contacted Ruth's Cleaning Service because they are local and have sparkling reviews.
Well let me add mine. 'Stunning' is the word to describe the enormous job they did in less than a day. I could not do what they did in bringing back the charm of this old house. With some effort on my part to clear surfaces and floors of clutter, dats before, this young couple on staff cleaned a country kitchen, bath, 2 bedrooms, a great room and vestibule in record time. It is a huge living space that was once a carriage barn. The place has high ceilings built in library shelving, wood floors and antiques pieces. The place was revitalized due to the incredible hard working staff. They know their stuff and they were worth every penny! So thankful for their skills at a time we needed it and just in time celebrate the holidays as in times past. We will continue to use their services monthly. I feel fortunate that we have such an amazing cleaning company right here in San diego. I would recommend them to anybody in the wider community. Well done!

Ruth and her team did a fantastic job for a great price. We were moving out so the place had to be pristine. Ruth and her team came through, and on short notice. They even cleaned things that were not required to be cleaned per my walk through. Will always hire this team when I need house cleaning! Very great customer service and coordination also. I had a situation where I could not be there to allow an estimate, and I could not get there in time because of work. They were very patient and very kind about the situation. Would love to someday hire them for the regular cleaning.

Wow, is all I can say about this company. I had been planning on taking another trip to California, however was running a little low on funds in order to pay for my trip. I had been in contact with my uncle who desperately needed a breath of relief by having a clean house (it wasn't necessarily dirty, but very, very cluttered as he works such depriving hours and barely gets any time to himself). We worked out a plan where I could come stay with him and he would pay my way over if I could come tidy up, which I definitely obliged by, as tidying up isn't that big of a deal to me (I didn't know what I was getting myself into).

When I arrived, let's just say the house had seen better days and I was instantly struck with the feeling of regret and dismay as I looked at the house before me. I didn't know where to begin and had a feeling that I would be spending my entire trip to Cali cleaning his house, which is not at all what I anticipated. So I did a quick Google search to see if there was anyone that did this sort of thing (I wasn't even aware this was an actual business, but thank god it was). I quickly got excited when I saw all the positive reviews this business had and gave them a call. The rep that I spoke to was very kind and courteous and expressed to me how the job would be done quickly and efficiently, and their prices actually surprised me. I decided to give them a try and I am so happy that I did. The job was done exactly like the man I spoke to said, and then some! I thought that just some of the clutter would be picked up, but they even cleaned, and the place looked amazing! My uncle was thrilled with the results, as well, and I was able to spend my trip... Not cleaning. It was a win-win for the both of us. Thank you ruth.

I absolutely LOVE the service and work that was done to my condo by Ruth and Michael!
This team are very reputable, trustworthy and professional. They go above and beyond and ensures customer satisfaction at all times.

My condo looked IMMACULATE and I was very impressed and satisfied with everything. They did an AMAZING job!! They have earned my business and I look forward to working with them in the future.

I would definitely recommend them to all of my family and friends!!

I was skeptical at first, since I originally found them on Craigslist. When I googled I found their website and their reviews on Yelp and realized they were legit and decided to give them a try. Michael and Ruth were great! So much so I used them for both our move in and our move out and could not be happier. They were very well priced, flexible, punctual and did an amazing job cleaning, especially my bathroom. My husband and I were both very pleased (which is hard to do). I look forward to recommending them to friends and family and I will certainly use them again in the future.

I used Ruths house cleaning for a move-out cleaning service and they did a fantastic job! I was most impressed with how clean the inside of my oven was, the shower doors were spotless, the grout on the tile countertops were white again, caked-on oil/bacon grease all over my stove and hood were cleaned very well, and the inside of my freezer/refrigerator were like new -- all for a really great price! Would definitely use this service again. I've already recommended them to friends and family!

Fantastic service! Prompt, professional, extremely hard working and I received a very thorough deep clean! A delightful crew who worked well together. I don't know how she did it, but Ruth was able to get my old shower doors to shine. A miracle! What more could you ask? I highly recommend ruths house cleaning!

I don't write reviews all the time but I read them all the time and I know they make a big difference. I have been wanting to write a review because the service has been so good that I would love to be able to get them more work from the work they have done for me. I first went with a different company called Milton. I explained that the house was being cleaned to be ready for a memorial service and needed to be ready within a day. I was told they would come the follwing night to survey and clean. They cancelled just before they were supposed to arrive which left me in a terrible spot. I called Ruths after and they were at the house within 10 minutes to give a price. He said they will be there at 7:30 am. The price I found to be good but after I found it to be amazing with work they did. They were very prompt. 3 little spanish girls that were so fast, so effecient, and all business. The pace they move was absolutely amazing. Just hustlers. Never moping about to slowly walk back to the car to get something they forgot, no breaks, just absolute hustle the whole time. They have mirrored the same service the times Ive used them and I am able to pay with paypal which makes it a lot easier for me. I am very happy with the service and hope this helps you if you were teetering on if you should go with them. I would also like to point out one last thing. It was a very hectic time and we accidentally left out important jewlery. I can also add that they were not just hard working hustlers, they were honest.

I found Ruths Cleaning Services on yelp Ruth fit me into a biweekly schedule very quickly for a 2 bd/2 bath at a really great rate. She is 100% reliable, trustworthy, thorough, and never makes an issue for special requests or add-ons. I have never had a cleaning service so easy to work with and nothing is better than coming home to a spotless place and being able to relax. Plus I don't have to provide any cleaning supplies and not only does she seem to love what she does, she spoils and plays with our dog and she is genuinely an energetic, hard-working, and very sweet woman. Wish I could afford to have her weekly, but her bi-weekly service definitely worth it and gets me by. Highly recommend.Thanks ruth!

I absolutely love Ruths house cleaning. They are my new go to company for house cleanings. I've used other cleaning companies before, but I always had issues with scheduling or customer service.

Ruths house cleaning made booking very simple. I was able to book an appointment , and I received a text confirmation and also received reminder emails later on.

Mike and ruth showed up on time and did a wonderful job. They listened to what I needed done and they made sure I was happy with the cleaning.

Thanks, mike and ruth , I will definitely use you again!

I hired Ruths House Cleaning for a move out. I had a very short time frame to do the work and they were completely able to accommodate my schedule, which was really tight.

My movers were running behind schedule and the cleaning team was completely able to work around them. It was honestly pretty amazing. They are super polite and did an amazing job. The team worked efficiently and quickly. I would highly recommend them!

After searching long and hard for a good housecleaning service, we discovered Ruths House Cleaning.
We've been using them for over 6 months now and we continue to be as satisfied with them today, as when we first began. Ruths HOUSE Cleaning is very professional, reliable and responsive to the customer's needs. Among some of the things that impress:

-They always call the day before to remind us of their next visit.
-They pay attention to details most other housecleaners miss (e.g. The top of our stovetop hood vent is a dust collector. Most housecleaners we've had before would forget to clean up there, but never has any House cleaner From Ruths failed to clean that area, and we've never had to tell them about it.)
-They always get my glass shower door sparkling clean, which is no easy task.
-They're always willing to go the extra mile on anything I ask help with (e.g. I asked Ruth for help cleaning the cruddy molding at the bottom of my shower door--she happily figured out how to remove it, completely got rid of the hard water stains on it, and replaced the molding all like it was was no big deal.
-They come equipped with everything they need and use all natural cleansers. But if you prefer them to use any of your own cleaning supplies, they will happily do so instead.
-If there is ever any issue, they go out of their way to make it right.

After a bit of turnover, we now have a steady regular person, Ruth, who is really terrific. She is always on time, has a "can do" attitude about everything, and always has a smile on her face. She is always helpful, accommodating, pleasant and thorough. I am frequently amazed at how she accomplishes so much, so quickly with no fuss or fanfare.

Finding a reliable and consistent housecleaner these days seems to be virtually impossible. We are so glad we discovered Ruths House cleaning!

We hired Ruths House Cleaning to clean a 2650 sq ft rental home that was left very dirty by a tenant of 7 years -- grime buildup on the kitchen cupboards, stained toilets, marks in every cabinet and drawer. The team was efficient and thorough, and Ruth the owner was especially responsive to our feedback on some missed spots, which were addressed immediately. Their professionalism and speed were very impressive. I recommend them for move out cleaning especially.Highly recommended!

Intuitive, hardworking and responsive, that's how I would describe this cleaning company. The crew cleans to a standard that is pretty high. They are so quick to address anything that does not meet their standards. Plus the added bonus is that English is spokenI am somewhat reluctant to share my review with the rest of San Diego because I don't really want to share her.

Ruth runs her business with integrity and emphasis on quality cleaning services. I was so impressed with her professionalism by accommodating my many requests and when I came home I was amazed at how welcoming my place looked. The team went above and beyond the call of cleaning duty. Give Ruths House cleaning a call if you want cleaning done right! Thanks ruth!

Professional, friendly and SO efficient. We needed a deep clean for our new home and couldn't do it alone as a newly family of four moving a toddler and newborn. Ruths house cleaning provided two professionals, mike and ruth who made our home sparkle like brand new! They were quick and paid attention to all the details of our home like light smudges on the walls and baseboards. Setting up the appointment was so easy and their management team is well organized and easy to reach. They were flexible with pricing/quotes/time allotment due to our uncertainty of the state cleanliness the previous owners left the home. Overall we received a generous discount for being a graduate student, mentioning yelp and liking the page on Facebook! Thank you ruth for making our new home sanitary, comfortable and BEAUTIFUL!!!

This maid service should be the only you call and I am sure glad I did. Finding reasonable housekeeping has never been easier.

Ruths did the bedroom, kitchen, bathrooms and even the staircase leading into the condo. When I came back my place was sparkling!

I would gladly recommend them to anyone looking for good professional, polite cleaning. Thank you guys!

After having a difficult time scheduling with a number of cleaning agencies (lots of cancelations) - I was relieved to find Ruth's House Cleaning Services. Their fantastic husband/wife duo scheduled promptly, worked around my schedule, offered a fair price, and did a fantastic job - including paying attention to a few extra areas that I requested. After six months of biweekly cleanings with them - I continue to be very impressed! They have never missed a cleaning, are extremely reliable, and continue to go above and beyond my expectations with the quality of their cleaning - doing a great job with all the standards, but also adding little touches that go above and beyond. They continue to earn my highest recommendation!
