Carpets are vacuumed rather than machine-cleaned, the oven is cleaned with standard products, and windows are sills and spot-cleaning only — each of these can be upgraded above.
A single oven is included. Double ovens and range cookers are quoted separately.
Results depend on age, material, staining and existing condition.
Cupboard fronts are cleaned; cupboard interiors and anything stored inside them are not part of the clean. Both can be added as upgrades above.
What is not included
The same for both services, unless agreed and quoted separately beforehand:
- Washing, drying or putting away crockery, cookware or other items stored in the property
- Removal or disposal of rubbish, belongings or furniture left in the property
- Garden, garage, shed, loft interior or outbuildings
- Exterior window cleaning
- Mould remediation beyond surface cleaning, and any damp, structural or ventilation fault
- Marks, scuffs or damage to walls needing filling or repainting
- Moving heavy furniture or appliances that cannot be moved safely by one person
- Pest infestation, biohazard or hoarding conditions
- Any work at height needing more than a standard two-step
Reliable care. Straightforward service. Quality results.
