Magic Martin Cleaning and Odd jobs LLC

Magic Martin Cleaning and Odd Jobs is a one-person operation out of Salem — Martin himself does the work — and the reviews read less like a service business and more like a trusted family friend who happens to charge for it. Several clients say they've used him for seven to ten years running, for everything from weekly house cleaning to the small repairs that pile up around a home. The jobs described are genuinely varied. In 2025 reviews, clients describe him hanging pictures, gluing chairs, installing a paper towel holder and soap dish, planting and weeding a garden, organizing closets, doing laundry, and cleaning kitchen floors, bathrooms and rugs — sometimes all for the same household. Another 2025 review describes him packing up a move: spackling holes, taking down curtains and hardware, and handling the general odds and ends that come with moving out of a rental. A 2025 review from an out-of-state client even has him managing US inventory and shipping for a small publishing company, which says something about how far the trust extends. Google shows a perfect 5 stars across 17 ratings, and none of the reviews on file are negative. There's not much to flag here. Many of the reviews are short — "reliable," "trustworthy," "a gem" — leaving little detail to work with, and this is a one-person operation, so availability likely depends on Martin's own schedule rather than a larger crew. For the accumulating list of small jobs around a house — cleaning, light yard work, odds and ends — the long client relationships here say more than any single review could.
