About us

Small team, same faces

We started as two sisters cleaning for neighbours. Now there are six of us, and you still get the same person each time, so they know where everything goes.

We bring our own cloths, mops and products. Tell us if you'd rather we used yours.

  • Same cleaner each visit where we can
  • Own supplies and equipment
  • Keys kept safe and logged
  • Not happy? We'll come back and put it right

Reviews

What customers say

Example review

We moved out on a Friday and got the full deposit back. The oven looked brand new.

Example customer, Earley

Example review

Same lady every fortnight. She knows how I like things and the house always smells fresh.

Example customer, Caversham

Example review

They do our office after 6pm. We walk in and everything's tidy. Never missed a visit.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need to be in?

No. Lots of customers leave a key or a code. We log it and keep it safe.

Do you bring supplies?

Yes: cloths, mops, a vacuum and products. If you have allergies, tell us and we'll use fragrance-free ones.

What does end-of-tenancy include?

A checklist covering every room, the oven, fridge, cupboards and windows. We send you the list before we start.

How do I pay?

Bank transfer or card after each clean, or monthly if you prefer.

Can I cancel a visit?

Yes, with 24 hours' notice. Less than that and we may charge for part of the visit.
