Services
Regular Cleaning
We provide tailored weekly or fortnightly cleaning services to maintain your home's appearance. Our teams work in pairs using professional equipment, covering vacuuming, dusting, kitchen and bathroom sanitisation, and light tidying tasks. Prices start at 50 +VAT for 2-bedroom properties, with flexible combinations of service levels to suit your budget and requirements.
End of Tenancy Cleaning
Our deep cleaning service prepares properties for tenant handovers, including kitchen appliance interiors, bathroom mould removal, window cleaning, and floor treatments. Packages start at 120 +VAT for 2-bedroom homes, with optional extras like furniture movement and chandelier polishing to meet deposit return standards.
Customised Services
We create bespoke cleaning plans for specific needs, from bedding changes to internal window cleaning. Our hourly rate model allows budget-friendly adjustments, such as alternating service intensity across rooms while maintaining overall cleanliness standards through detailed consultation and documentation.
One-off Cleans
Ideal for special occasions or urgent needs, our one-time service covers all areas using the same rigorous standards as regular cleans. Quotes are provided after property assessment via video consultation, with no fixed pricing due to variable requirements across different properties.
Deep Cleaning
This service includes comprehensive treatments like grout scrubbing, skirting board degreasing, and furniture vacuuming. Available as part of Gold packages or standalone visits, it focuses on hard-to-reach areas and high-traffic zones to restore your home's hygiene and appearance to optimal levels.
