Frequently asked questions

Renovation and building work often results in lots of dust throughout your property. An after builders clean is designed to remove that before you move back in, so you can be comfortable when you return to the property.

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.

I booked an end of build clean on Friday, to happen early on a Sunday morning. My cleaners texted me in the morning to confirm when they would arrive and were extremely prompt. They did a fantastic job of removing all traces of dust and have left my house spotless and ready to move into. I am really happy with the standard of their work, their communcation and the Housekeep service.

The cleaners arrived at the earlier end of the time window provided and after establishing what was required they got on their work without any fuss. The two ladies were polite, cheerful and conscientious and left the property in a very respectable condition.

“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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.”
