"Falling behind on cleaning due to a demanding work schedule left my apartment feeling chaotic. The team was incredibly efficient, organizing the clutter and sanitizing the kitchen and bathrooms. I've already recommended them to my co-worker."

Forest Hills Told a co-worker first
A real Lily Maids story
Carlos told his co-worker before he told us.
Carlos G. in Forest Hills had let things slide. Demanding schedule, long commute, and an apartment that had gotten genuinely chaotic around the edges. He booked a cleaning mostly out of frustration. The team sorted the clutter and sanitized the kitchen and bathrooms, and he wrote afterward that he'd already recommended us to a co-worker.
That happened before we ever mentioned a referral program to him. Which is sort of the point. Nobody in this city recommends a cleaning service to be nice, they do it because a friend is visibly drowning and they know something that helps. This page just makes sure you get paid for the thing you were going to do anyway. You get $25 off, your friend gets $25 off thier first clean, and we get a client who arrived already trusting us.
Your code is in your account profile. Log in, copy it, text it to whoever came to mind while you were reading this. If you're not a client yet, the first booking is where it starts, and pricing shows what a visit runs.

Who to send it to
You already know who.
Referrals almost always trace back to the same handful of situations. If one of these is happening to someone you know right now, that's your person.
Moving in or out The worst weekend to DIY
The mover
Anyone with a lease ending.
Moving in this city means scrubbing an empty apartment at midnight after a full day of carrying boxes. A friend who is packing right now will genuinely thank you for the code. Send it before they book the truck, not after. Our move-out cleaning follows the checklists landlords actually use, and move-in cleaning happens before the boxes land.

Forms to fill in
New parents · recovery The ones who won't ask
The overwhelmed one
New babies and hard months.
David K. in Park Slope needed a nesting clean before a due date. Brian A. on the Upper West Side was caring for his wife after surgery. Neither of them was going to ask anyone for help, which is exactly why a friend forwarding a code works better than a friend offering to come over and vacuum.
A deep cleaning is usually the right call in these situations, or a recurring plan if the hard stretch is going to last a while. If you'd rather cover the whole visit instead of $25 of it, gift cards start at $100.
The neighbor or host
People in your building.
This one is quietly the most useful. If we're already cleaning your apartment, we're already in your building, which makes scheduling easier for everyone and means your neighbor gets a team that knows the doorman and the service elevator rules. Hosts and landlords in the same building are worth a mention too, since turnover cleaning and short-term rental cleaning tend to be repeat work.
Word of mouth between neighbors is how most of our routes in Astoria and Park Slope got built in the first place. The FTC's endorsement guidance is worth a skim if you're recommending us publicly rather than privately, since disclosing that you get a credit is the honest move.

★★★★★
"With my in-laws arriving for the holidays, I was panicking about the state of my kitchen and bathrooms. The cleaners were absolute lifesavers, scrubbing every surface until it sparkled, and they even left a little note with a gift card for a discount on my next booking."
★★★★★
"We needed a nesting clean before our due date, and I was too exhausted to even think about scrubbing the tub. The crew was so thorough and used safe products, making our nursery and apartment perfect for our newborn. I'm sending a gift card to my pregnant friend to help her out."
★★★★★
"Returning from a three-week work trip to a stale apartment was depressing, and I didn't have the energy to tackle it. The service was swift and effective, handling the pet dander and dust buildup that had accumulated."
★★★★★
"My elderly parents are in a new assisted living facility, and I needed a deep clean of their old apartment before the family arrived. The team treated their home with such care and respect, removing years of grime."
★★★★★
"Hosting my son's birthday party at our apartment was stressful enough without worrying about the mess. The house cleaners arrived on time and transformed our home, wiping down the cabinets and floors until they gleamed."
★★★★★
"After recovering from a bad flu, I realized my entire apartment needed a sanitized deep clean to get rid of all the germs. The team arrived with great equipment and scrubbed every doorknob and surface, making the environment healthy again."
★★★★★
"I was preparing my apartment for a real estate showing and the dust from a small renovation was everywhere. The cleaning crew worked so fast and made the hardwood floors and windows look brand new."
★★★★★
"Handling a home alone during a divorce is tough, and I just let the cleaning go for months. The service was a lifesaver, providing a thorough detail of the carpets and a deep clean of the oven that I'd been dreading."
★★★★★
"We were hosting a Thanksgiving dinner and needed the apartment to be absolutely flawless. The team wiped down the walls and baseboards, getting rid of the summer dust. They left a gift card in the kitchen for our first-time guest, which was a lovely touch."

Questions and answers
Before you send the code.
The questions we get asked most about referrals, answered in full and open by default. Nothing hidden behind a click. More on the FAQ page.
Where do I find my referral code? 01
Log in to your account at the client login and open your profile. Your referral code is listed there. It's unique to you, it doesn't expire, and it stays the same, so you can save it in your phone and reuse it forever. If you can't find it, call us at (646) 825-3550 and we'll read it to you.
How does my friend use it? 02
They enter it as the coupon code when they book online. It works exactly like any other promo code, so there's no separate referral field to hunt for. Their $25 comes off the total before they confirm, which means they see the discount rather than having to trust it'll show up later.
When do I get my $25? 03
After your friend's first cleaning is completed, not at the moment they book. That timing protects everyone from cancellations and reschedules. Once the visit is done, your $25 is applied to your account and comes off your next booking automatically.
How many people can I refer? 04
As many as you want. There's no cap and no expiry on the code. If four neighbors book in the same month, that's $100 off your cleanings. We've had clients essentially cover a deep clean this way, which is a fine outcome as far as we're concerned.
Can my friend combine it with NEW10 or another offer? 05
No, one code per booking. They'll want to compare: NEW10 takes 10% off, so on a cleaning over $250 that's worth more than the flat $25, and on anything under that the referral code wins. Either way you still get your $25 as long as they used your code. Check pricing to work out which is better for their home size.
Does the person I refer have to be new? 06
Yes. The referral code applies to first-time Lily Maids clients only. If someone has booked with us before, the code won't discount their visit and no credit is generated. Existing clients aren't left out though, they have thier own referral code to send onward.
What if my friend isn't happy with the cleaning? 07
Same promise as every visit. If something isn't right, they tell us within 24 hours and we come back and re-clean the areas in question at no charge. Read the full satisfaction guarantee. We'd rather fix a visit than have you regret recommending us to someone you know.

"My wife is recovering from surgery, and I knew I couldn't keep up with the cleaning and care. The team was a godsend, focusing on sanitizing the high-touch areas and thoroughly vacuuming. I'm going to stock up on gift cards for them as a way to say thank you."

"My apartment hadn't had a deep clean in months, and I was embarrassed to have anyone over. The service was incredible, tackling the mold in the shower and scrubbing the floors until they shined. I'll be sending a gift card to my daughter, who just set up her new home office."
