FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions that clients ask us. If your question is not answered below, feel free to get in touch, and we can help.

Should I wait for the builders to leave before calling you in?

It makes sense to book us for the day after the builders have packed up and left, so the air has settled, and we can give your place a dust-free finish.

Do you handle heavy waste or skip debris?

Our focus is on cleaning, so we’ll take care of small bits and bobs, but we don’t clear out large building materials or skip items.

Is this service for residential renovations or for commercial developments as well?

We can handle both – whether it’s a new kitchen, office fit-out or anything else.

Can you clean up paint and plaster splatters from the floors?

Yes, we’ve got the right equipment to remove any paint or plaster splashes without scratching your new surfaces.

How do you deal with the dust that keeps settling everywhere?

We use HEPA-filter vacuums and special microfibre cloths to catch all the tiny particles.

Does the price include window cleaning?

We clean the inside of all windows as standard. If you want us to clean the outside as well, we can arrange it for you.

Does the property need to be empty for an end-of-tenancy clean?

For the most effective results and to ensure we can reach every corner, the property should be cleared of all personal belongings and rubbish before we arrive. This allows our team to move freely and clean the interiors of cupboards, wardrobes, and storage units as required by your tenancy agreement.

How much notice do I need to give for a booking?

While we recommend booking at least a week in advance to secure your preferred date, we always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests. If you have an urgent handover, give us a call, and we will check our current availability for an emergency slot.

Do you give my landlord a receipt or certificate?

Yes, we provide an invoice and a completion confirmation, which can serve as proof that the place was professionally cleaned.

Is your checklist based on what estate agents expect?

Yes, we use a list that covers everything the major UK letting agents and professional inventory clerks expect.

What should I do with my personal items before the team arrives?

We recommend clearing surfaces of any clutter to allow us to focus entirely on deep-scrubbing and sanitising the fixtures and furniture, ensuring every inch of your home receives the attention it deserves.

How often should I get a deep clean?

Most people find that a deep clean every six months keeps their home looking and feeling like new.

Does the deep clean include the inside of my oven?

Yes, it does. We can clean out the oven, extractor fan, and hobs to remove grease and carbon buildup.

How long does a deep clean take?

The time to complete a deep clean varies depending on the size and condition of the property. We send a team of three cleaners to make sure the job is always thorough but not too drawn out.

What if I need to skip a week or change my schedule?

No problem! Just let us know at least 24 hours in advance, and we can pause or reschedule your clean.

What if I’ve got pets?

We love animals. If your pets are comfortable with strangers and with the noise of cleaning, such as vacuums, then we’re happy to work around them.

Do I need to be there when the cleaner arrives?

No. Many of our clients give us a spare key in case they’re not home when we arrive. We follow strict key-holding protocols to keep your property safe.

Are your cleaners insured and background-checked?

Your house is in good hands. Helena does a thorough background check to give you complete peace of mind. We hold full insurance, so you’re covered against accidental damage or public liability.

Can I choose which rooms get cleaned during my visit?

We’re happy to tailor our cleaning visit to fit your needs. Whether you want a top-to-bottom clean or focus on the kitchen and bathrooms, we’ll work with you to get the job done the way you like it.
