Why The Handmaid’s Tale ?

Hassle Free

Highly Efficient

Customized & Detailed

Fully Insured

The Housemaids have been providing a cleaning service on Waiheke Island for over 9 years. Our roots to the community and area go much deeper. We are owned and operated by Rochelle Gallagher who has been living on the island for just under 20 years, so we consider our clients our friends and neighbours. We believe that client satisfaction is the key to success. Our logo being “for a detailed clean” this is what we pride ourselves on. We stand by our mantra, and because we are a smaller business and we dedicate time and attention to the smallest of details for all of our clients.

Testimonials

“Those of you who know me may have heard my frequent lament as to the lack of decent cleaners on our island Paradise. (Unless one wants to donate an organ to fund a monthly clean…) I am notoriously fussy. But Rochelle is the exception! No corner left unscoured, no cobweb left unswept. And she gave me the kick in the arse to start a massive and long overdue de-cluttering process. All with a lovely red-lipped smile, and without breaking the bank! I cannot recommend her enough. Go get your houses Xmas-ready, peeps!” - Rebecca Daily Peoples
