Housekeep wins the Trade Award & the Technology Innovation Award

We’re thrilled to announce that Housekeep has been named as double-winners at the inaugural Local Business Awards.

We’re winners of both the Trade Award and the Technology Innovation Award

The Trade Award is designed to recognise a business that provides essential services to local people & businesses, including electrical & plumbing services, carpentry, maintenance and cleaning - which are all services we specialise in.

As well as being recognised for our contribution to the trade sector, we also picked up the Technology Innovation Award, which was created to recognise businesses that create positive change through technology. In this category, the judges were looking for technology that is ethical and improves the lives of the people that use it.

What are the Local Business Awards?

The Local Business Awards are a social enterprise on a mission to celebrate the best local, ethical & sustainable businesses in the UK. They’re an independent organisation that believes celebrating local businesses on a national level can inspire a local business revolution. Excitingly, 2021 is the Local Business Awards' first year, having recently evolved from the Lotus Awards.

5* local services

Our technology has been designed to connect customers with brilliant, 5* local professionals. By connecting customers & Housekeepers within their local area, we’ve already saved Housekeepers over £5 million in travel costs, helping them earn up-to 50% more than other cleaners. Plus we’re saving ~1000 tonnes of CO2 emissions each year with our local job allocation & route optimisation technology.

With industry leading technology, we’ve grown Housekeep to market leader in the UK’s £5bn home cleaning market - delivering over 1,000,000 cleans, with a 4.9* average rating. But we’re not stopping there - we’re now offering 5* local tradespeople services too, including plumbers, electricians, carpenters, gardeners & more.
