Testimonials

What our customers have to say about us:

I’m so IMPRESSED with Charter Oak Maintenance, we needed something out of the norm this week and I had lost Lydia’s phone number by way of a technical meltdown with my phone so I reached out to the web site to send a message. John replied back to me via email with all the information I needed to call Lydia in less than a minute (not kidding) and then he said he would do the leg work and relay the message to her about what we needed. FIVE STARS CHARTER OAK!!! Thank you for your service we appreciate your attention to detail and you’re professionalism.

- Michelle

I just wanted to say how great the floors looked when we came back from break yesterday! Thank you for completing our requests and resetting the condition of our floors. So far, I think the new night crew member is a great addition to the team! He seems to have a good sense of what is needed and what it takes to clean our space properly. He just might be what we have been looking for.  

- Natasha

I wanted to say thanks to you! The room and the space were spotless for our event! I truly appreciate you and your team and the attention you all gave to the Ambulatory 4th floor area.

The floor in the old food pantry, now Tara’s Closet, looks fantastic. It is so much cleaner than I thought it would get. Your folks did an outstanding job. Thank you so much.

Let me also add that the post-storm cleaning of the salt infused vestibule carpeting, and most of the salt-encrusted areas of interior rugs, look to have been specially cleaned/vacuumed/treated over the past few days. They look good!

Regarding some feedback I received from an evening RN: She complimented Hugo for helping out the ED staff during a very difficult night with an extremely high census. She said he is always eager to help, does it with a smile, and is becoming part of the team. Please let him know that the extra effort is recognized and appreciated.
