Maid In The Shade Cleaning Services

Twenty-four years cleaning Boston, and still a one-person shop. Maid In The Shade Cleaning Services works out of a Fenwood Road address near the Longwood medical area, and its Better Business Bureau profile lists it as a sole proprietorship started in March 2002 with a single employee, owner Kerrie Felton. The job list leans as much commercial as residential: regular house cleaning, move-in and move-out turnovers, college dorm rooms, common hallways in apartment buildings, and storefront windows. That mix reads like a business built around Boston's student-and-rental churn as much as around weekly household cleans. Its BBB page carries an A+ grade. The company has not sought BBB accreditation, which BBB itself treats as a choice rather than a mark against a business. No customer star ratings or written reviews have been published there, so there is no public track record to weigh yet. A reasonable call if you want a long-established owner-operator for an apartment turnover or a recurring clean, and you would rather deal with the same person every visit than a rotating crew. Ask for references from current clients and confirm insurance directly before booking.
