Step-by-Step House Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & quote
Contact us by phone, email or online form with a brief description of your property: number of bedrooms, bathrooms and any particular concerns. We’ll ask a few practical questions and provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the size and condition of the property and the frequency of cleaning you require.
2. Survey – virtual or onsite
For most regular house cleaning, a short virtual survey (photos or video call) is enough to confirm the quote. For larger properties, or where there are special requirements, we may recommend a quick onsite visit. This helps us estimate the correct time, plan equipment and agree priorities, so there are no surprises on the day.
3. Preparation and first clean
Once you are happy with the quote, we agree a date and time. Before we arrive, we simply ask that surfaces are reasonably clear of clutter so our cleaners can work efficiently. On the first visit, we usually allow a little extra time for a more detailed clean, then settle into a steady routine for subsequent cleans.
Transparent Pricing for House Cleaning
We keep our pricing straightforward. House cleaning is usually charged by the hour, with a minimum booking time that depends on property size and the level of service required. Factors that affect the price include:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Condition of the property (standard clean vs deep clean)
- Frequency – weekly, fortnightly or one-off
- Any additional services such as oven or fridge cleaning
All rates are agreed in advance and confirmed in writing. There are no hidden charges for travel within Shepherds Bush. If extra time is needed beyond the agreed scope, we will discuss this with you before proceeding.
Why Professional House Cleaning Beats DIY
Most people can clean their own home, but professional cleaning brings several advantages:
- Trained cleaners who follow a systematic routine, so nothing is overlooked
- Use of commercial-grade products and tools for more effective results
- Time savings – you gain back hours each week for work, family or rest
- Consistent standards, even when life is busy or you are away
- Reduced wear and tear through correct cleaning techniques and products
Instead of rushing through chores, you come back to a calm, ordered and hygienic home, maintained by professional cleaners who do this every day.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your property and belongings are protected throughout our work. Cleaners Shepherds Bush holds:
- Public liability cover – protects you and your property in the unlikely event of accidental damage during cleaning.
- Goods in transit insurance – for any equipment and materials we transport to and from your home.
- Trained cleaning teams – all staff receive practical training in product use, surface care, health & safety and safe key holding.
We follow clear checklists and work methods for every clean. If you entrust us with keys or access codes, they are logged and stored securely according to our internal procedures.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your home as we would our own. That means:
- Using colour-coded cloths and mops to reduce cross-contamination between bathrooms and kitchens
- Testing products on discreet areas where surfaces may be delicate or unusual
- Protecting vulnerable surfaces such as natural stone, wood and high-gloss finishes with appropriate methods
- Ventilating rooms while we work to improve air quality
We are also mindful of the environmental impact of cleaning. Wherever possible we select concentrated products to reduce packaging, use measured dosing to avoid waste, and can provide more eco-friendly options on request. Our aim is to balance hygiene, surface protection and sustainability in a practical, realistic way.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house cleaning in Shepherds Bush cost?
Pricing depends on property size, condition and how often you’d like us to visit. Smaller flats needing regular light cleaning will cost less than larger family homes or one-off deep cleans. We usually work on an hourly rate with a sensible minimum to ensure a proper job. Once you tell us the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and any special requests, we’ll give you a clear estimate and confirm it in writing. There are no extra charges for travel within Shepherds Bush and no hidden fees.
Can you provide same-day or urgent house cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we do our best to help with last-minute or urgent cleans, for example before guests arrive, after an event or ahead of an inspection. Same-day availability depends heavily on the day of the week and the size of the job. If you need urgent cleaning, call us as early as possible with details of your property and priorities. We’ll let you know straight away what we can realistically achieve in the time available and provide a firm price before you confirm.
Are your cleaners insured while working in my home?
Yes. We are a fully insured cleaning company. Our public liability policy covers accidental damage or injury arising from our work in your property, and we maintain goods in transit cover for our equipment and materials. In addition, our cleaners are trained in safe working practices and correct product use to minimise the risk of problems. If an issue ever arises, we ask that you report it promptly so we can investigate and, where appropriate, arrange repair or replacement through our insurance procedures.
What exactly is included in a standard house cleaning visit?
A standard visit focuses on the regular tasks that keep a home looking and feeling clean: dusting, vacuuming, mopping, cleaning bathrooms, wiping kitchen worktops, hobs and cupboard fronts, and general tidying of accessible surfaces. We work to an agreed checklist tailored to your property and priorities. Deep cleaning tasks such as oven interiors, inside kitchen units, carpet shampooing or external windows are not included by default, but can often be added at extra cost. During your initial enquiry we’ll confirm in detail what will be covered on each visit.
How far in advance should I book my house cleaning?
For regular weekly or fortnightly cleaning, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks ahead to secure your preferred day and time, especially if you need evening or weekend slots. One-off or deep cleans are best arranged as early as possible, particularly during busy periods such as end of month or pre-holiday seasons. That said, we do sometimes have short-notice gaps. If your requirements are flexible, we may be able to fit you in sooner. Simply contact us with your ideal dates and we’ll outline the options.
Do I need to be at home while you clean?
No, you don’t have to be present while we work, although you are welcome to be. Many clients provide us with a key or arrange access via building concierge. We have secure procedures for key handling and will only use your key for the agreed cleaning times. If you prefer to be at home, we can work around you, focusing on different rooms while you work or relax. Before the first clean we’ll agree how you’d like us to access and secure your property each time.
