In early August, Molly Maid owners Tony and Susie Kirby received a panicked phone call from a producer of ABC’s hit show, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition requesting their service. With just a few hours before the family was due home for the final reveal, the franchise owners frantically rounded up their staff and headed out to the brand new home, armed with cleaning supplies.
The producer was a loyal Molly Maid customer and knew he could depend on the company to get the 4,500-square-foot, two-story house cleaned before the family walk-through.
“There had to be well over 100 contractors on the scene,” said Susie Kirby, owner of the Molly Maid of Houston. “We literally had to clean around the people still working to finish the house — I know we ended up cleaning a couple of the rooms more than once.”
About 20 Molly Maid home service professionals dashed out from their family dinners to meet at the main office to re-stock their cars with the necessary supplies before heading out the new house located at 3613 Goodhope in Houston. The crew finished up their duties at 11 p.m. and filed out the back door as the Johnson family was welcomed to their new home through the front.
The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition episode is set to air Sunday, October 10th, 2010 at 8/7 on ABC.
