East Ham (E6)

Abdu proved to be an great help at home today to ensure that everything was clean and tidy. He worked tirelessly to make sure that every room was cleaned. From dusting the furniture to vacuuming the carpets and mopping the floors, Abdu's hard work paid off in a big way, leaving the house looking sparkling clean. It's clear that he takes great pride in his work, and his efforts did not go unnoticed. In fact, his clean was so good that it made everyone feel more relaxed and at ease in the home. We are grateful for Abdu's dedication and commitment to keeping our living space clean and comfortable. His willingness to go above and beyond is truly appreciated.

Arrived on time and efficiently cleaned the agreed areas in the allotted time. He was also patient while I went to the shops to purchase a decent mop, during which time he hoovered. Would book again.

Local information about Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace is an area of South London, named after the now-destroyed entertainment and exhibition space. Crystal Palace is the meeting point of no less than five South London boroughs - Lewisham, Bromley, Croydon, Southwark and Lambeth.

Designed as a ‘Winter Park and Garden Under Glass’, the Crystal Palace was moved from Hyde Park to the then-named Penge Common in 1854. The impressive structure, constructed mostly of iron and glass, sadly burned in 1936 after a small explosion inside.

The area is significant for sporting fans as the home of Crystal Palace F.C. - the Premier League side who now play at Selhurst Park, slightly outside of Crystal Palace.

The area was mostly home to expensive villas when the Victorian exhibition space was moved south of the river. The area's new attraction led to residential developments in Victorian terraced style. In later years, these were joined by Edwardian properties too, and many of these homes remain reasonably priced by London’s standards.

Via Crystal Palace Railway Station, the area is well connected to Central London via the East London line of the London Overground as well Network Rail trains.

The Housekeep platform frequently services the SE19, SE26 and SE20 postcodes with experienced cleaners available. All cleaners on the platform have been through background-checks and have domestic cleaning experience to ensure a 5-star clean at every visit.
