How Our House Cleaning Process Works

1. Enquiry & Quotation

Contact us by phone, email or our online form with your address, property type, number of rooms and your preferred dates. We ask a few focused questions to understand the condition of the property and your priorities. Based on this, we provide a clear, written quotation with no hidden charges.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For larger or more complex jobs, we may suggest a short video call or an onsite visit. This allows us to assess access, parking, floor types and any delicate surfaces. It also gives you a chance to ask questions. Surveys help us allocate the right number of cleaners and time so we can complete the work properly in one visit.

3. Preparation Before Cleaning

Before our team arrives, we ask that you tidy away personal items and valuables where possible. On the day, our cleaners protect floors where needed, agree priorities with you and then follow the pre-agreed checklist. At the end, we invite you to walk through the property to confirm you are happy before we leave.

Transparent, Fair Pricing

We price house cleaning based on the size of the property, its condition and the level of detail required, rather than a one-size-fits-all rate. You can choose between:

• Hourly cleaning – flexible for smaller or maintenance jobs
• Fixed-price packages – ideal for deep cleans and end of tenancy

Your quotation will clearly state what is included, how long we expect to be on site and any optional extras. There are no weekend surcharges unless agreed, and we explain any parking or congestion-related costs in advance where applicable.

Why Choose Professional Cleaning Over DIY?

While it is possible to clean your own home, a professional cleaning service offers several advantages:

• Trained cleaners who know how to treat different surfaces safely
• Commercial-grade products and equipment for more effective results
• A structured checklist so nothing important is missed
• Time savings – especially valuable for busy professionals and families
• Independent third-party results for landlords, agents and inventory clerks

For move-outs or deep cleans, professional results often make the difference between disputes and a smooth handover.

Insurance and Professional Standards

As a responsible cleaning company, we take protection and compliance seriously. Pimlico Carpet Cleaning is:

• Fully insured with comprehensive public liability cover
• Covered by appropriate goods in transit insurance for equipment and materials we bring to your property
• Staffed by trained cleaning teams who follow method statements and risk assessments

Our cleaners wear identifiable clothing, respect confidentiality, and follow health and safety guidelines appropriate for domestic and light commercial environments. We are happy to provide proof of insurance on request.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every property as if it were our own. That means:

• Using floor protectors and clean equipment to avoid cross-contamination
• Testing products on small areas where surfaces may be delicate
• Using colour-coded cloths for kitchens and bathrooms to maintain hygiene

We are also committed to more sustainable cleaning where practical. Wherever possible, we use concentrated solutions to reduce packaging, microfibre systems that require less chemical, and sensible water use. If you prefer certain eco-labelled products, we can discuss this during the quotation and incorporate them where appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does house cleaning in Pimlico cost?

Pricing depends on the size and condition of your property, plus the level of detail required. Smaller, well-maintained flats may only need a few hours on an hourly rate, while larger houses or deep cleans are usually quoted at a fixed price. During your enquiry, we ask specific questions about room numbers, bathrooms, flooring and any pets. This allows us to provide a clear written quote before any work starts, with no hidden extras. We are always happy to explain how the price has been calculated.

Can you provide same-day or urgent house cleaning?

We do our best to accommodate urgent bookings in Pimlico, especially for move-outs, last-minute inspections or unexpected visitors. Same-day or next-day availability depends on our schedule and the size of the job. If you need urgent help, call us rather than emailing, as this is often quicker. We will tell you honestly what we can achieve within the time available and may suggest prioritising key areas such as kitchens and bathrooms to give you the best possible result at short notice.

Are you insured if something is damaged during cleaning?

Yes. We hold public liability insurance to cover accidental damage to your property caused by our work, and goods in transit insurance for the equipment and materials we bring. Our cleaners are trained to work carefully, but on the rare occasion that something goes wrong, we follow a straightforward reporting and resolution process. We encourage you to highlight any particularly fragile or sentimental items before we start so we can take extra care or avoid them entirely if you prefer.

What is included in a standard house cleaning service?

A standard visit covers regular cleaning of kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas. That includes dusting and wiping accessible surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, cleaning sinks, hobs, toilets, baths and showers, and polishing mirrors and glass doors. We also empty bins where liners are provided. It does not usually include outdoor work, carpet shampooing, full oven dismantling or extreme cleaning, though these can often be added as separate services. Before we begin, we agree a clear checklist with you so you know exactly what to expect.

How far in advance should I book?

For regular weekly or fortnightly cleaning, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance so you can secure your preferred day and time. One-off deep cleans and end of tenancy jobs are best booked as soon as you know your move date, particularly at month-end when demand is highest. That said, we do keep some flexibility for short-notice work. If your timing is tight, contact us and we will let you know our earliest availability and any options for splitting the clean over more than one visit.
