Owner, Maids in Black

Don’t Just Imagine It! Here’s What We’ve Done for DC Families

Read What Our Happy Clients Say

"I went through a few cleaning companies before I signed up for a recurring service with Maids in Black. Our 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo is now spotless around the clock - so spotless that you can walk around in white socks and they stay white! Highly recommended."

Irena N

"I hired Maids in Black to do a deep clean of my apartment as we moved out, and they did a fantastic job. Not only did they work on a Sunday, but they arrived on time, communicated well, worked quickly and thoroughly, and left no stone unturned."

Heather Marie

"I am extremely happy with the team that comes to my home to clean. This past weekend they arrived a little earlier than expected and immediately started cleaning. The two women worked very fast and efficient. I feel like hugging them when they're finished."

Kim S

"I used them yesterday to clean up my furnished studio apartment that I was moving out of. I am so happy that I did! It smelled so fresh in there when I returned. They cleaned the stove top which I was excited about. I will mos def use them again in my new apartment."

Laneesha W

I hired Maids in Black for a deep spring cleaning and they did an AMAZING job! Not a detail was overlooked. They arrived in a timely fashion (the email reminders are helpful, too) and left the place smelling fresh. I'm pretty sure the wood floors didn't even look this good on the day I moved in. All-star work!

Willie R

"I used the service the first time today and am impressed. My apartment is spotless. It looks great. I couldn't be happier. A nice plus, I came home to my cat sleeping soundly on the (freshly made) bed. Normally, she's hiding under said bed when strangers are in our place. She must have like them too. A+"

Who our Service is NOT For

Our services are NOT for everyone, and truth be told we’d prefer to help you figure out if it’s not right for you BEFORE you call rather than waste your time. So, let’s cut to the chase.

Our service is not for people looking for cheap.

We strictly vet our cleaners for your security and have full insurance for your safety.

You also get reliability, easy booking and scheduling. 6 day customer service with lightning fast response times.

But you can relax knowing you and your home are 100% safe with Maids in Black.

"After trying out Handybook and a few of the cleaners on Groupon, I hired MIB again after being disappointed with the caliber of other cleaning services. Pricey? Yes. Worth every penny? Yes."

"This company is so awesome! I've had them clean my house at least 5 or 6 times, so this review is way overdue.

They've always been on time and will call when they're nearby. Although I haven't done this yet, you can also leave a key hidden for them if you won't be home."
