Paulett was punctual, polite and friendly and did a fantastic job - my oven, which was badly in need of a clean, is now sparkling and I haven't seen my bathtub so spotless in ages! Highly recommended.

Luminita is an absolute gem of a cleaner! From her warm smile to her punctuality, she brings a ray of sunshine to every cleaning session. Not only is she incredibly friendly, but her attention to detail and thoroughness in her work leave my home sparkling every time. I couldn't ask for a better cleaner than Luminita!

Islington is inner-London's most densely populated borough, with the 200,000 residents who call it home crammed into less than 6 square miles that extend from Crouch Hill in the north, to Farringdon in the South, Canonbury in the east and King's Cross in the west.

Islington incorporates the postcode areas N1, N4, N5, N6, N7, N8, N16, N19, EC1, EC2, NW5 and WC1 and is serviced by multiple tube and rail stations including Tufnell Park, Archway, Upper Holloway, Crouch Hill, Finsbury Park, Arsenal, Drayton Park, Holloway Road, Camden Road, Angel, Highbury & Islington, Canonbury, Caledonian Road & Barnsbury, Essex Road, Old Street and Farringdon.

Islington is known for its Victorian and Georgian townhouses set on communal garden squares. The housing stock also includes many flats in the form of converted terraces, warehouse conversions and modern new-build apartments.
