Overall it was ok but the glass work is not to my standards. The house wasn't very dirty, just dust but I was hoping mirrors, coffee table, side table ... etc anything with glass will have a better standards.

Toyin

Areas covered

Brent Cross Edgware Golders Green Hendon Holders Hill Mill Hill West Finchley

“We’ve had cleaners before, but honestly this was on another level. From the moment Toyin arrived she was wearing her little blue boot covers — something most people never bother with — it was clear she takes real pride in what she does. The house was left absolutely spotless, but it’s the thoughtful details that really set her apart. Rather than just leaving the dirty rags scattered around, she’d gathered them neatly into a little bag and tied it with a bow — a small touch, but one that really stuck with us. Little things like that throughout made all the difference. We’ll be booking again without question. Couldn’t recommend her more highly. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.”
