A Worker-Owned Business

We are a group of mostly women (and 2 men), from Upper Manhattan and the Bronx, who have formed a cooperative business in order to ensure ourselves decent wages and healthy work conditions. We offer green cleaning services for homes, offices and businesses in the New York Metropolitan area.

As both workers and owners of our business we have a special interest in providing the best service possible.

Healthy Clean

In the last several years, a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

By promoting the use of non-toxic products, we protect the people who live or work in the spaces we clean. There are plenty of new products on the market free of harsh chemicals, not to mention the tried and true methods of our grandmothers that will leave your home or business sparkling and smelling great. Clients with small children, pets, or allergies will especially benefit from these services.

Experience and Personal Service

With decades of experience among us, as well as continued extensive training, we can ensure your satisfaction. We take pride in our work and strive to meet the needs of all of our clients. You can always contact our home office directly with any issue that arises, at the same time that you can rely on the personal relationships with our members.

We clean homes, offices and businesses
using all natural green cleaning products.

Appointments are available 7 days a week. We generally require a minimum of 48 hours notice to schedule a first appointment.

To schedule, please call us at (917) 830-8060, 11am-7pm, Monday through Friday or fill out our contact form.

We will provide an estimate for our first visit. Our members work on a contract basis, not hourly, and will complete any  job for the set price, no matter how long it takes.
