Our Step-by-Step House Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & quote

You can contact Greenwich Cleaners by phone, email or our online form. We will ask a few clear questions about your property size, number of bathrooms, current condition and your priorities. Based on this, we provide a transparent, no-obligation quote, usually the same day. For regular cleaning, we outline the recommended frequency and estimated time per visit.

2. Survey – virtual or onsite

For most homes, a virtual survey using photos or a short video call is sufficient. For larger properties or more complex jobs, we may arrange a brief onsite visit. This allows us to confirm timings, identify any delicate surfaces and agree any additional services, so there are no surprises on the day.

3. Preparation

Before our cleaners arrive, we ask that floors and key surfaces are reasonably clear of clutter so we can clean thoroughly and efficiently. On the day, our professional team arrives on time with the agreed equipment and products. We walk through any special instructions, then work methodically through your home, room by room, following an agreed checklist. At the end, we can walk round with you (for one-off cleans) to ensure you are happy.

Transparent Pricing for House Cleaning

We believe in straightforward pricing, with no hidden extras. Our quotes are based on:

Property size and layout
Number of bathrooms and occupants
Condition of the property (regular maintenance vs deep clean)
Frequency – weekly, fortnightly or one-off

Regular house cleaning is usually charged at an hourly rate with a minimum visit time, while one-off and end of tenancy cleans are generally priced per job. We confirm all costs in writing before you book, and any optional extras are clearly listed, so you always know exactly what you are paying for.

Why Choose Professional House Cleaning Over DIY

Cleaning your own home is possible, but a professional service offers several benefits. Our cleaners follow a structured process, so every visit covers the essentials systematically, saving you time and effort. Professional products and equipment help achieve a more consistent finish, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms. We are also insured and trained, reducing the risk of damage to surfaces or belongings. Many clients tell us that outsourcing their cleaning gives them back valuable time for family, work or study, while keeping their home reliably presentable.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Greenwich Cleaners operates to clear, accountable standards. For your peace of mind, we are:

Fully insured with public liability cover, protecting you if an accident occurs in your home.
Covered by goods in transit insurance when transporting cleaning equipment and products to and from your property.
Equipped with trained, supervised cleaning teams who follow written procedures and safety guidance.

All cleaners are reference-checked, and new team members are paired with experienced staff until we are confident in their work. We aim for consistent results at each visit, not just a good first impression.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every property as if it were our own. Delicate surfaces such as natural stone, real wood and high-gloss units are identified during the survey so we can use suitable products. Soft furnishings and personal items are handled carefully, and we do not open drawers or cupboards unless this is part of an agreed service.

Where possible, we use low-impact cleaning solutions and microfibre systems to reduce chemical use and water waste. We can also work with your own preferred products if you have allergies or sensitivities. Our aim is to keep your home clean and fresh while minimising our environmental footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does house cleaning in Greenwich cost?

Pricing depends mainly on the size of your home, the number of bathrooms and how frequently you would like us to attend. Regular weekly or fortnightly cleaning is usually charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking time, while one-off deep cleans and end of tenancy cleans are priced per job. Once we understand your property and priorities, we provide a clear written quote with no hidden extras. You only pay for the time and services agreed in advance.

Can you provide same-day or urgent house cleaning?

Same-day or urgent appointments are sometimes possible, particularly outside peak times, but they cannot be guaranteed. If you need cleaning at short notice for a viewing, inspection or unexpected visit, contact us as early as you can. We will check our schedule and let you know realistically what we can achieve within the available time. For the best chance of securing your preferred slot, we recommend booking regular cleans or giving at least a few days’ notice for one-off work.

Are you insured if something is damaged during cleaning?

Yes. Greenwich Cleaners is fully insured for public liability, and we hold goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials. While incidents are rare, this cover is there to protect both you and us if something goes wrong. Our cleaners are trained to handle items carefully and to report any issues immediately. We always ask you to point out particularly fragile or high-value objects during the survey so we can decide together how best to protect them.

What exactly is included in a standard house clean?

A standard house clean focuses on the areas most people use daily. This includes dusting and wiping of accessible surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, and thorough cleaning of bathrooms and kitchen surfaces. We also clean mirrors, internal glass (where reachable), skirting boards and switches as part of our routine. Inside ovens, fridges, cupboards and windows at height are not included unless specifically requested. Before we start, we agree a checklist with you so it matches your home and expectations.

How far in advance should I book?

For regular weekly or fortnightly slots, it’s best to book at least one to two weeks in advance, especially if you prefer a specific day or time. One-off and end of tenancy cleans can sometimes be arranged with less notice, but availability is tighter at month end and around holidays. If you know your dates, contact us as soon as possible so we can reserve a suitable team. We will always try to accommodate changes, but more notice gives you the widest choice of appointments.

Do I need to be home during the cleaning?

You are welcome to be at home, but it is not essential. Many clients in Greenwich provide us with a key or access code, which we store securely under a clear key-holding policy. Before we work alone in your property, we agree exactly which rooms will be cleaned and how to lock up safely afterwards. If you are home, we will work around you as best we can and keep disruption to a minimum.
