Our Domestic Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You can contact us by phone, email or our online form with details of your property in St John’s Wood, the number of rooms, and the type of clean you need (regular or one-off). We ask a few questions about condition, access and priorities, then provide a clear, itemised quotation with no hidden extras. For standard homes, we can usually quote based on your description alone.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For larger properties, high-value interiors, or deep cleaning projects, we may recommend a short virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to see flooring types, delicate surfaces and any areas of concern. The survey helps us plan the right trained team size, products and equipment, and it ensures our time estimate and cost are accurate before work begins.

3. Preparation and Protection

On the day, our cleaners arrive on time in uniform, fully briefed on your requirements. We protect vulnerable areas such as flooring and corner edges where needed, move light furniture carefully, and agree any rooms that are off-limits. We then work systematically through the property, using colour-coded cloths and appropriate products for each surface to avoid cross-contamination and damage.

4. Professional Cleaning

We follow a structured cleaning checklist tailored to your property. Kitchens and bathrooms are prioritised, then living areas and bedrooms. We focus on touch points such as handles, switches and banisters for better hygiene. At the end, we invite you to walk through where possible, so any small adjustments can be made straight away.

Transparent Pricing

We believe in clear, fair pricing, with rates based on:

• Property size and layout
• Current condition and level of soiling
• Frequency (one-off, weekly, fortnightly, monthly)
• Any requested extras, such as oven or carpet cleaning

Regular domestic cleaning is typically charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking time, while one-off deep cleans are often priced per job. All costs are confirmed before we start, and any changes are discussed and agreed in advance, so you always know where you stand.

Why Choose Professional Domestic Cleaning Over DIY?

Many clients in St John’s Wood are more than capable of cleaning their own homes, but choose us for several reasons:

• Time savings – free up evenings and weekends for work, family and rest
• Consistent standards – a planned, methodical clean every visit, not just the obvious areas
• Professional products and methods – better for carpets, delicate stone and high-end finishes
• Hygiene – proper sanitising of bathrooms and kitchens, reducing bacteria and allergens
• Preventative care – regular cleaning extends the life of flooring, soft furnishings and fixtures

By using professional cleaners, you also reduce the physical strain of heavier cleaning tasks, particularly useful for older clients, people with limited mobility, or those recovering from illness.

Insurance and Professional Standards

We operate to high professional standards and are fully insured for your peace of mind:

• Public liability cover – protects you and your property during our visit
• Goods in transit insurance – covers your items when we transport cleaning equipment or move items as part of the service
• Trained moving teams – our cleaners are trained to move and protect furniture safely when cleaning underneath or behind

Every team member is vetted, referenced and properly inducted. We provide ongoing training in products, equipment use, safe working practices and data protection when handling access details.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every home with respect, using appropriate products for each surface and checking manufacturer guidance where needed.

• Care and protection – we use non-abrasive products on delicate surfaces, protect corners and floors where necessary, and never drag heavy furniture
• Sustainability – we favour low-odour, environmentally responsible products where practicable, and we dose chemicals correctly to avoid overuse
• Waste handling – we separate recycling where facilities are provided and leave waste in the correct bins for council collection

Our aim is a clean, healthy home that is cared for responsibly, without unnecessary impact on the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does domestic cleaning in St John’s Wood cost?

Pricing depends on the size of your property, how often you want us to visit, and the level of cleaning required. Regular cleaning is usually charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking time to ensure we can do a thorough job. One-off and deep cleans are often priced as a fixed job once we understand your needs. We always provide a clear, written quotation before you commit, so you know exactly what is included and what the final cost will be.

Can you provide same-day or urgent domestic cleaning?

Where our schedule allows, we do offer same-day or short-notice domestic cleaning in St John’s Wood, particularly for urgent situations such as last-minute visitors, post-event clean-ups or end-of-tenancy deadlines. Availability depends on existing bookings and the size of the job. If you need an urgent clean, contact us as early as possible with details of the property and timing. We will always be honest about what we can achieve within the time available and will never over-promise.

Are you insured while working in my home?

Yes, we are fully insured for your peace of mind. We hold public liability cover in case of accidental damage or injury while we are working in your property. In addition, our goods in transit insurance covers your belongings where we need to move items as part of the cleaning process or transport equipment. Our teams are vetted, trained and supervised, and we work to clear procedures to minimise risk. Copies of our insurance details are available on request before any booking is confirmed.

What is included in a standard domestic clean?

A standard domestic clean focuses on the regular tasks that keep your home fresh and hygienic. This includes dusting and wiping surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathrooms (toilets, basins, showers, baths, tiles and mirrors) and cleaning kitchen surfaces, hobs and sinks. We also empty bins and carry out light tidying where agreed. Inside ovens, fridges, cupboards and internal windows can be added as extras. Before we start, we will agree a checklist with you so expectations are clear.

How far in advance do I need to book?

For regular weekly or fortnightly domestic cleaning, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance to secure your preferred day and time. For one-off or deep cleans, earlier is always better, especially during busy periods such as spring and around tenancy changes. That said, we do keep some flexibility for urgent work and will always try to accommodate you. Once booked, we confirm dates and arrival windows so you can plan around the visit with confidence.

Do I need to be at home while you clean?

You are welcome to be at home if you prefer, but many clients in St John’s Wood choose to give us secure access via keys or concierge. We have strict procedures for key holding and access information, and treat your privacy very seriously. Before the first clean, we will discuss how you would like us to enter and lock up, any alarm systems, and rooms that should remain private. Whatever arrangement you choose, we aim to make the service as convenient and unobtrusive as possible.
