About the Author
Alejandra Ortiz started cleaning homes in Placerville over 15 years ago with a car full of supplies and a promise to do things the right way. Today she runs Alexa's Cleaning Services, a licensed and insured cleaning company (El Dorado County Business License #074540) trusted by hundreds of families and businesses across El Dorado County.
She still personally trains every team member and inspects work against her own checklist. Every guide on this blog comes from what she has seen inside real homes in Placerville, Cameron Park, Shingle Springs, Diamond Springs, El Dorado Hills, and Pollock Pines. Real products, real timelines, real prices. No filler.
Her rule has not changed since day one: no contracts, no rescheduling fees, and every home gets equal care.
