Who Our House Cleaning Service Is For
Our service is suitable for almost anyone who wants a clean, comfortable home without the stress of keeping on top of it alone.
Homeowners
If you own your home in Streatham, we can provide regular house cleaning to keep it looking its best. We look after everything from general dusting and hoovering to careful cleaning of kitchens, bathrooms, and living areas.
Renters
For tenants, we help you maintain your rented property to a good standard throughout your tenancy and offer detailed end of tenancy cleaning to maximise your chances of getting your deposit back.
Landlords & Agents
We work with landlords and letting agents who need reliable cleans between tenants. Our professional teams follow strict checklists so the property is ready for viewings or new occupants.
Businesses & Home Offices
Small businesses and self-employed professionals often work from home. We offer tailored cleaning for home offices and mixed-use spaces, keeping them presentable and pleasant for work and visitors.
Students & Shared Houses
Student and shared accommodation can quickly become overwhelming. We provide regular or ad-hoc cleans to bring the property back under control, focusing on communal kitchens, bathrooms and living areas.

How Our House Cleaning Process Works
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone, email or our online form with basic details: property size, number of bathrooms, type of service (regular, deep, end of tenancy), and your preferred dates. We’ll ask a few practical questions and then provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the information you give us.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger homes, deep cleans or end of tenancy work, we may suggest a short virtual survey (video call) or a quick onsite visit. This allows us to assess the condition of the property, discuss your priorities and identify any areas needing special attention. It also ensures the time we book is realistic, so we can complete the job properly.
3. Preparation
Before the clean, we confirm the date, time and key arrangements (access, parking, alarm codes if relevant). We’ll let you know if anything needs to be moved or cleared beforehand. On the day, our professional team arrives on time with all necessary equipment, walks through the job with you if you are present, and then works methodically through your agreed checklist.
Transparent Pricing
We believe in straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our house cleaning is usually charged:
- Hourly for regular house cleaning, with a minimum booking time
- Fixed price for deep cleans and end of tenancy cleaning, based on property size and condition
Quotes include labour, standard cleaning products and equipment. Additional services, such as internal oven cleaning or inside fridge cleaning, are clearly itemised so you can choose what you need.
We will always confirm the rate and estimated duration before you book, and we keep you informed if extra time may be required due to the condition of the property.
Why Choose Professional Cleaning Over DIY?
Many of our clients are perfectly capable of cleaning themselves, but life gets in the way. A professional cleaning service offers:
- Consistency – the same or regular cleaners following a structured checklist
- Time savings – freeing up evenings and weekends for work, family or rest
- Better results – professional products, tools and techniques
- Reduced stress – especially around moves, inspections or end of tenancy
- Clear accountability – you know who to call if anything needs attention
As experienced cleaners, we see details that are easy to miss and know how to deal with built-up grime, limescale and high-traffic areas efficiently and safely.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Streatham Cleaners operates to robust standards designed to protect you, your home and our team.
- Fully insured – we hold comprehensive public liability cover for accidental damage and injury on site.
- Goods in transit insurance – for any equipment and materials we bring to your property and, where applicable, when transporting items for cleaning.
- Trained teams – all cleaners receive practical training in safe product use, equipment handling, and respectful working in clients’ homes.
We also have clear procedures for key handling, alarm codes and client confidentiality, so your property and privacy are treated with care.
Care, Protection & Sustainability
We treat every home as if it were our own. That means:
- Using colour-coded cloths to prevent cross-contamination between bathrooms and kitchens
- Testing products on small areas where surfaces are delicate or unknown
- Taking care around valuables, electronics and personal items
We are also committed to more sustainable working practices. Where possible, we use concentrated products to reduce packaging, microfibre cloths to minimise waste, and can offer low-fragrance or eco-friendly cleaning solutions on request. Our aim is to leave your home clean, fresh and safe for children, pets and allergy sufferers.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house cleaning in Streatham cost?
Pricing depends on the size of your property, how often you’d like us to visit, and whether it’s a standard or deep clean. Regular house cleaning is typically charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking time, while deep and end of tenancy cleans are often priced as a fixed job. Once we know the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and the current condition, we provide a clear written quote with no hidden extras, so you’ll always know in advance what you’ll be paying.
Can you provide same-day or urgent house cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we do our best to accommodate same-day or short-notice bookings, especially for move-outs, end of tenancy cleans or emergency situations. Availability depends on our diary and the size of the job, so it’s always worth calling to check. If we can’t offer your exact time, we’ll suggest the nearest suitable slot and can sometimes send a larger team to complete the work more quickly, provided there is safe access and enough space to work.
Are you insured if something is damaged during cleaning?
Yes. Streatham Cleaners is fully insured with comprehensive public liability cover, as well as goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials. While incidents are rare, if accidental damage occurs we follow a clear reporting process and work with you to resolve it fairly. We also train our teams carefully to minimise risk, use appropriate products for each surface, and always err on the side of caution when dealing with fragile, high-value or unusual items in your home.
What exactly is included in a house cleaning service?
A standard house clean usually covers dusting, vacuuming, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathroom fixtures, wiping kitchen worktops and cupboard exteriors, and general surface cleaning in living areas and bedrooms. Deep and end of tenancy cleans can extend to inside cupboards, appliances, skirtings, tiles and other detail work by prior agreement. During booking, we confirm your priorities and note any areas you’d like us to focus on or avoid, so the service is tailored to your home and expectations.
How far in advance should I book?
For regular house cleaning, it’s best to book at least a week or two ahead so we can offer your preferred day and time and ensure continuity with the same cleaner where possible. Deep cleans and end of tenancy work are often booked earlier, especially at busy times such as month-end or around holidays. However, we do keep some flexibility for urgent jobs. If your dates are fixed, contact us as soon as possible and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
Do I need to be at home while you clean?
You’re welcome to be at home during the clean, but it isn’t required. Many of our regular clients provide keys or access codes, which we manage under strict security procedures. Before we start, we’ll agree how we’ll access the property and where to leave keys when we finish. If you’re not present, we can update you by message or email, and you’ll return to a clean, tidy home without having to work around us while we clean.
