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.

We take a card payment when you book. We accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express payment cards.

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

It usually takes your cleaning team 3-5 hours to complete an after builders clean.

The cleaning team will bring everything they need for your after builders clean, including all products and a vacuum cleaner.

Bush Hill (N21)
The two women were great. Very friendly and personable. Hard working and assiduous. They left my bedroom, front room, kitchen, bathroom looking spotless. You could literally eat off the floor of the kitchen ( I wouldn't but you could)! They also prepped my hallway for the next stage of painting. The best thing is that my flat is ready for Christmas. I'm going to need another clean post hallway decoration and would be very happy to have them come back.
