Merry Maids® does more than just take care of homes—we take care of people. We give you back the time you deserve so that you can focus on what matters most. We have 40 years of experience in professional home cleaning, which has allowed us to develop advanced, thorough processes that deliver unrivaled, worry-free results. That's our specialty. We clean hundreds of thousands of homes across the United States and Canada, and even in other countries like the United Kingdom and Japan. Our Merry Maids team understands the importance of earning and keeping your trust, which is why we clean thoroughly and efficiently while respecting your space. Our 5-Star Promise represents our commitment to ensuring premium customer satisfaction with every single cleaning.

Are your cleaning products safe for pets and children?

We know you strive to protect your kids’ and pets health and safety, and so do we! Merry Maids® uses environmentally friendly and pet-safe cleaning products.

Are your cleaners insured and bonded?

Yes, all Merry Maids® cleaners are insured and bonded so you can feel secure in your home cleaning choice.

How Often Should I Schedule a Deep Cleaning Service?

For most homeowners, a one-time deep cleaning every 6 to 12 months is usually sufficient. If you aren't receiving regular cleaning on a weekly or bi-monthly basis, you may want to schedule cleanings more frequently.

Can I ask for special requests or request focus on certain areas?

Yes! We are happy to accommodate any special requests you may have. If parts of your home are especially cluttered or untidy, our team can spend their time just on those areas so that you get the best value for your money. Common special requests we receive include: de-griming baseboards, cleaning inside cabinets, removing pet hair from furniture, and de-cluttering closets.

Our Story

JEJK Inc., proudly operating as Merry Maids of Larimer County, is a family-owned business rooted in Fort Collins, Colorado. Founded in 1985 by Jason and Eileen Skillingberg, the company began with a single franchise in Boulder and a shared vision of excellence in home cleaning. The name “JEJK” honors the family—Jason, Eileen, Jennifer, and Kelly—whose dedication has shaped the company’s legacy.

From humble beginnings—including their first $69 cleaning job—JEJK Inc. expanded to serve Longmont and Fort Collins, earning multiple industry accolades such as the Dallen Peterson Founders Award and the Servant Leader Award. Their commitment to quality and community has made them a trusted name in Colorado for over 40 years.

“Always professional, friendly, and efficient. I love coming home to a sparkling clean house!” — Sarah M., Fort Collins

The company’s success is deeply rooted in family involvement. Jennifer brings her passion to the Fort Collins office, while Jason and Eileen continue to guide operations from their home office. Kelly, who worked in the Boulder/Longmont office until her passing in 2018, left behind a legacy of hard work and heart.

“The team is reliable and consistent. I’ve used them for years and they never disappoint.” — Mark T., Loveland

In 2024, JEJK Inc. made a strategic decision to focus solely on the Fort Collins franchise, serving Larimer and Weld counties. This move allows the company to deliver even more personalized and high-quality service to its local community.

“We couldn't be happier with Kim and her cleaning of our home. She is very thorough and thoughtful!” — J&J, Windsor

Looking ahead, JEJK Inc. is embracing advanced cleaning technologies and eco-friendly practices, while continuing to invest in employee training and community engagement.

“They go above and beyond every time. I appreciate the attention to detail and care they show.” — Emily R., Greeley

With a foundation built on family, service, and trust, JEJK Inc. is proud to continue making Colorado homes shine—one clean at a time.
