Barking (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 Oval

Famous as the home of Surrey’s cricket ground, The Oval, the Lambeth neighbourhood of Oval is situated within the wider area known as Kennington.

Grand period properties dominate the Kennington area with family-sized terraced houses featuring prominently on the local property market. New-build apartments are also now available, and older purpose-built flats are scattered throughout the area.

Transport links are great in the area, with Oval underground station receiving service from the Northern Line. The station is within London’s travelcard zone 2, making Oval a great home for those working in Central London.

The Housekeep platform services all of Oval - the SW8, SW9 and SE11 postcodes - with 5-star domestic cleaners available for weekly, fortnightly or one-off cleans. These Housekeepers are all interviewed by our fabulous recruitment team in person, to ensure a professional experience.
