Frequently asked questions

After builders cleaning is more thorough than regular cleaning, and requires specialist equipment. The after builders service removes high levels of dirt and dust from your surfaces, plus the exterior of your kitchen appliances and white goods. Your cleaners will also deep clean the inside of your windows, the outside of cupboards and your skirting boards, to ensure that all dust and dirt is removed.

Your cleaners can try to remove small amounts of paint from windows, provided there is no risk of causing damage.

Your cleaners will not remove paint spillages from flooring, due to the risk of further damage. We would recommend you discuss any spillages with your builder.

Cleaners can collect keys from a key safe, neighbour or estate agent (within a ten-minute walk of the property).

I would like to thank the two man team who carried out an 'after builders' clean. They arrived on time, introduced themselves and were very polite, friendly and respectful. We went through the areas of the house that needed attention and invited me to inspect what they had done at every stage. They worked efficiently and effectively and gave my home a new lease of life. Thank you guys.

“Yaa did a thorough, detailed clean. She checked with me after finishing each room, took my comments on board straight away and fixed things on the spot. She was friendly, careful and professional, and great with my cat. Her late arrival was due to back-to-back bookings with too little travel time, not her. I'm very happy to have her as my regular Housekeeper..”
