Who Our Domestic Cleaning Service Is For

Homeowners

Busy households in Streatham rely on us to keep on top of the regular cleaning so they can focus on work, family and free time. We work to an agreed schedule, usually weekly or fortnightly, with the same cleaner wherever possible.

Renters

Businesses & Home Offices

We provide light commercial and home office cleaning for small local businesses, therapists, and professionals working from home who need a clean, welcoming environment for staff or clients.

Our Step-by-Step Domestic Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You can contact Streatham Cleaners by phone, email or online form. We will ask a few straightforward questions about your property: number of bedrooms and bathrooms, flooring types, pets, and your preferred days and times. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote for regular or one-off cleaning, explaining exactly what is included.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most standard homes a virtual survey (short call and, if you wish, a few photos) is sufficient. For larger or more complex properties in Streatham we may arrange a brief onsite visit. This allows us to assess access, parking, and any specific requirements, and to estimate the time accurately so we can send the right size team.

3. Preparation & First Clean

Once you are happy with the quote, we agree a start date and frequency. We confirm arrival windows, security instructions and key-holding arrangements if required. On the first clean we usually allow extra time for a more detailed service so that subsequent visits are straightforward maintenance. After the first visit we can adjust the schedule if needed.

Transparent Pricing Explained

We charge for domestic cleaning on a straightforward hourly basis, with a minimum booking time. The rate depends on factors such as frequency (weekly, fortnightly or monthly), property size and whether you prefer one or two cleaners. All prices are discussed and agreed before we start work.

There are no hidden extras: if you ask us to add deep cleaning, oven cleaning or other one-off tasks, we will confirm the additional time and cost before proceeding. Regular customers in Streatham benefit from consistent pricing and clear invoices, so you always know where you stand.

Why Choose Professional Domestic Cleaning Over DIY

Many households begin by trying to manage all the cleaning themselves, but over time it becomes difficult to maintain a consistent standard. A professional service brings structure, efficiency and experience.

• Our cleaners follow a proven, systematic method so nothing is missed.
• We bring appropriate products and equipment, or can use your preferred brands.
• Regular appointments ensure your home stays clean, not just occasionally tidied.
• You gain back several hours each week for work, family or rest.
• Professional cleaning reduces dust, allergens and limescale build-up, protecting surfaces and fixtures.

Because our teams are trained and experienced, tasks that might take you all day can often be completed in a fraction of the time, and to a more consistent standard.

Insurance & Professional Standards

Streatham Cleaners operates to clear, professional standards so you can trust who is coming into your home.

• Fully insured for Public Liability, providing cover for accidental damage to your property during cleaning.
• Goods in transit insurance in place where we transport equipment or materials to and from your property.
• Trained cleaning teams who receive ongoing instruction in safe product use, correct cleaning techniques and security procedures.
• All staff are vetted, reference-checked and supervised, with periodic quality checks carried out in person.

We follow health and safety best practice, use colour-coding for cloths and mops to avoid cross-contamination, and respect your privacy and household rules at all times.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We clean as if your home were our own, taking care with surfaces, belongings and security. Delicate items, special finishes and antiques are treated cautiously, and we will always ask before using products on anything unusual.

Where possible we use low-impact, effective products and avoid unnecessary chemical use. We are happy to work with eco-friendly cleaning products supplied by us or by you, and we minimise waste by using reusable microfibre cloths and refilling bottles rather than relying on single-use plastics.

We also plan our routes sensibly around Streatham to reduce unnecessary travel and emissions, grouping appointments where we can while still offering the flexibility clients need.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does domestic cleaning in Streatham cost?

Our pricing is based on an hourly rate, with a minimum booking time to ensure we can complete a proper, thorough clean. The total cost depends on the size of your home, how many bathrooms you have, whether you have pets, and how often we visit. Weekly or fortnightly clients usually pay less per hour than one-off customers. Once we know the basic details of your property, we provide a clear written quote with no hidden extras, so you can see exactly what you are paying for before you decide.

Can you offer same-day or urgent domestic cleaning?

Where our schedule allows, we do offer same-day or short-notice domestic cleaning in Streatham, especially for one-off or emergency tidy-ups before guests, inspections or viewings. Availability does depend on existing bookings and the size of the job, so the earlier you contact us, the better. If we cannot attend immediately, we will offer the closest suitable time. For regular clients, we can sometimes rearrange visits at short notice to accommodate urgent needs wherever possible.

Are you insured in case something is damaged?

Yes. Streatham Cleaners is fully insured for Public Liability, which provides cover in the unlikely event that we accidentally damage something in your home while cleaning. We also hold goods in transit insurance related to our equipment and materials. Our cleaners are trained to handle your belongings carefully and report any issues immediately. We keep our claims history extremely low through cautious working practices, but you have the reassurance that professional cover is in place should anything go wrong.

What is included in a standard domestic cleaning visit?

A standard visit focuses on the main living areas, bedrooms, kitchen and bathrooms. We dust and wipe all reachable surfaces, clean bathroom fixtures, wipe external kitchen units and worktops, vacuum and mop floors, and tidy visible areas. We empty small household bins if the refuse area is accessible. Tasks such as oven cleaning, inside cupboards, internal windows or deep limescale removal are not included as standard but can be added to your booking. Before we begin, we agree a clear checklist so you know exactly what will be done each time.

How far in advance do I need to book?

For regular weekly or fortnightly domestic cleaning in Streatham, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance so we can secure your preferred day and time. One-off or deep cleans can often be arranged more quickly, but availability is tighter at the end of the week and around month-end. If you need urgent cleaning, contact us and we will offer the earliest suitable slot. Once you are on our rota as a regular client, your time becomes reserved for you on an ongoing basis.

Do I need to be at home during the clean?

You are welcome to be present if you prefer, but most regular clients are at work or out while we clean. We can hold a set of keys securely or use key safes, concierge access or coded locks depending on your building. All key-holding is recorded and managed carefully. Before we start, we agree entry and locking-up procedures with you in writing. Many people find that coming home to a freshly cleaned house after work is one of the biggest benefits of using a professional domestic cleaning service.
