In 2022, our family sold our home in Paso Robles and experienced what can only be described as a nightmare with a cleaning company. We wanted the house cleaned for the buyers, so we reached out to several companies. Not one answered their phone, and only two even bothered to call us back.

On cleaning day, two “cleaners” showed up—but you wouldn’t have known it. No uniforms, no supplies, and no idea what they were supposed to do. Even though we’d already explained everything over the phone, we had to walk them through the house again and hand them our own products. Three hours later, we got a call from the company: the $500 quote they gave us only covered the three hours they “thought” it would take. If we wanted the job finished, the bill would be $1,200. At that point, we had no choice but to pay—it was either that or leave the buyers with a half-cleaned home.

It turned out the “company” wasn’t a real cleaning business at all. They were just a middleman: taking bookings, collecting payments, and sending out random local workers with no training, no standards, and no accountability. The result was exactly what you’d expect—streaks on the windows, dirt on the baseboards, and cabinets left untouched.

Sadly, this wasn’t a one-time experience. As real estate professionals, we often had clients ask for referrals to cleaners and other home service providers, and time after time it was the same story: poor communication, no-shows, confusing pricing, low standards, and a lack of professionalism. One company even failed to show up the day before buyers were scheduled to move in—that was the breaking point.

We knew there had to be a better way.

Atomic Home Services was built on a simple idea: bring back the values of a time when people took pride in their work, greeted you with a smile and a handshake, and did exactly what they promised — on time, on budget, every time.

We set out to create a home services company that:

• Provides professional, trained, and accountable technicians (not random subcontractors).

• Offers clear and fair pricing, with no surprises or hidden fees.

• Delivers consistently excellent results, backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

• Treats every customer with respect and care, the way we’d want our own family to be treated.

Today, Atomic Home Services isn’t just another cleaning company. It’s our answer to a broken industry — and our promise to be the kind of company we wished existed when we needed it most.
