To help you as swiftly as possible we have listed a few of the most asked questions we receive. If you don't find the question you're looking for, don't worry, just get in touch with us and we'll help you the best we can.


» How much will I pay?

Our hourly rates include the cleaner's wage, agency fee and VAT. Rates vary depending on the area you're in and the number of hours you require each week. If you want a free quote all we'll need is the approximate number of hours you need and your postcode.

» How long should I allow for my regular cleaning?

Well, that depends on the size of your rooms and how much is in them, plus the quality and depth of cleaning that you require.

Ultimately the choice is yours, you may want fewer/more hours and then just prioritise the rooms and jobs to be completed.

Below is a general guide for various property sizes:

  Bedrooms
Bathrooms 1 2 3 4 5
1 2 2.5 3    
2 2.5 3 3.5 4  
3   3.5 4 4.5 5
4       5 5.5
5         6

You might only want cleaning once every fortnight, if so we suggest adding an extra 30 minutes to the above guide.

How about One-off cleans? Our suggestion would be to add an extra hour to the above table, for the extra jobs you might require.

» What sort of contract am I tied in to?

We don't believe in long and complicated contracts and really do believe in being fair. Naturally, like any business, we have to have terms and conditions and these can be found at the top of this page. If you do ever need to cancel, all we ask is that you give us one month's notice.

» How do you vet the cleaners?

We first carry out a telephone interview. If the applicant seems suitable we then arrange for a more thorough interview to take place in their own home. Only after taking proof of ID and address along with references do we accept them onto our database. We then monitor every cleaner thoroughly for the whole time they are with us.

» Do I meet my cleaner before the first clean?

Of course! We know the cleaner will be in your home and that personalities are often as important as cleaning standards. Once we choose a cleaner for you, we'll arrange for them to come along and meet you so that you can approve our choice and discuss the cleaning tasks you require. It's important that your cleaner is someone you like so there's no need to agree to the first person we send you. Once you're satisfied that we've sent the right person for you, you can then mutually arrange a regular clean day and time.

» What if my cleaner can't make it, or is sick?

Just give us a call and we will provide you with a cleaner to cover.

» Will I have to be at home when my cleaner cleans?

No, our cleaners are vetted and are happy to hold your house keys. We will provide you with a Key Acknowledgement Form for your cleaner to sign.

» Do I have to supply cleaning materials?

Yes, our cleaners do not carry their own materials as the majority of our clients prefer to specify the substances used in their homes. Please be aware that due to health and safety bleach is a banned substance.

» Can I change my cleaner if I am not happy?

Yes, of course, we have a large and varied cleaner base and we'd be happy to assign you someone different if you are unhappy for any reason. Just give us a call.

» Do you have insurance cover?

Yes, including a minimum of £1,000,000 public liability insurance. In line with all other insurance policies, there is an excess on the policy. In order to keep costs reasonable the excess is £100 per claim.
