How Our Domestic Cleaning Process Works

1. Enquiry & Quote

Contact us by phone or online with your address in Pimlico, property size and your cleaning priorities. We will ask a few questions about the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, flooring types and any special requirements. Based on this, we provide a clear hourly rate and an estimated number of hours for the first clean and for ongoing visits.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most standard homes, a detailed discussion and, if helpful, a quick virtual tour via photos or video call is enough to agree the scope. For larger or more complex properties, we can arrange a brief onsite visit at a convenient time to confirm timings, access, parking and any building rules we must follow.

3. Preparation Before the First Visit

We confirm your booking, agreed tasks and start time in writing. Before the first clean, we ask that you:

• Provide access instructions, concierge details or keys
• Secure valuables and personal documents
• Advise us of any delicate or high-value items that need special care
• Let us know if you prefer us to use your own products or equipment

On the day, your trained cleaner arrives on time, follows the agreed checklist and updates us if additional time may be useful. We review feedback after the first visit and adjust the plan if needed.

Transparent Pricing

We keep our pricing straightforward. Domestic cleaning in Pimlico is charged at an hourly rate, with a minimum booking length depending on the size of your property. The rate reflects:

• Local, experienced and professional cleaners
• Public liability cover and administrative support
• Travel and time allowances for working within central London

Regular clients benefit from consistent rates and priority booking. One-off and deep cleans may require a slightly higher minimum time to allow us to achieve a proper result. All costs are confirmed before we start; there are no hidden charges for stairs, standard bathrooms or kitchens.

Why Choose Professional Domestic Cleaning Over DIY

Cleaning your own home in detail takes time and energy, especially in busy city lives. A professional domestic cleaning service brings:

• Consistent results – the same tasks completed to an agreed standard each visit
• Time savings – more free time for work, family and rest
• Trained techniques – correct products and methods for different surfaces
• Reduced wear – avoiding damage to delicate finishes, floors and fixtures
• Accountability – if something is missed, we come back and put it right

For landlords and tenants, professional domestic cleaning can also reduce disputes over cleanliness at the end of a tenancy.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Your home and belongings are important, and we treat them accordingly. Cleaner Pimlico is fully committed to industry best practice and clear protection for our clients.

• Public liability cover – protects you in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury during our work
• Goods in transit insurance – where we transport cleaning equipment and materials to your property, they are properly insured in transit
• Trained cleaning teams – all cleaners receive training in safe product use, correct handling of equipment and care of different surfaces
• Vetting and supervision – identity checks, references and regular quality reviews

We follow clear health and safety procedures, including risk assessments for unusual tasks, and we always work with respect for neighbours and shared spaces in Pimlico buildings.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Our approach balances thorough cleaning with care for your home and the environment:

• Use of microfibre cloths and modern tools to reduce chemical use where possible
• Option for eco-friendly products on request
• Protective measures for floors and surfaces, such as appropriate pads and non-scratch tools
• Correct dilution and use of chemicals to prevent damage and minimise waste
• Efficient route planning and local teams to reduce unnecessary travel within Pimlico

We are always happy to discuss products, allergies or sensitivities so we can adapt our methods to suit your household.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does domestic cleaning in Pimlico cost?

Domestic cleaning is usually charged at an hourly rate, with the total cost depending on the size of your property, its current condition and how often we visit. During your enquiry we will ask a few simple questions and provide a clear estimate of hours for the initial clean and for regular visits. There are no extra charges for standard stairs, bathrooms or kitchens. If, on arrival, we feel more time is required to achieve the standard you expect, we will discuss this with you before proceeding.

Can you provide same-day or urgent domestic cleaning?

Same-day or urgent appointments in Pimlico are sometimes possible, especially on weekdays, but they depend on our existing schedule. Because we work locally, we can often be more flexible than larger companies, but we never compromise on quality or safety to squeeze in extra work. If you need urgent help, contact us by phone so we can check live availability, discuss your priorities and confirm what can realistically be achieved within the time we have.

Are your cleaners insured while working in my home?

Yes. We hold comprehensive public liability cover to protect you in the event of accidental damage or injury while we work. Our cleaning equipment and materials are also protected by goods in transit insurance when being brought to your property. All cleaners are trained in safe working practices and the responsible use of products and equipment. While incidents are rare, we believe it is important that clients know there is proper protection and a clear process in place if anything does go wrong.

What exactly is included in a domestic cleaning visit?

A standard visit covers the main living areas, kitchen, bathrooms, hallways and bedrooms, focusing on dusting, vacuuming, mopping and cleaning of surfaces and sanitary ware. We will agree a checklist with you in advance so you know precisely what to expect each time. Light tidying, bin emptying and simple additional tasks such as wiping appliance fronts are generally included. More specialised work, like inside ovens, exterior windows or heavy stain removal, is usually treated as an add-on service and must be agreed beforehand.

How far in advance do I need to book?

For regular domestic cleaning, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance to secure your preferred day and time, especially if you need early mornings or evenings. One-off deep cleans may require a little more notice, as they often need longer time slots. That said, we do keep some flexibility in our Pimlico schedule and can sometimes arrange visits at shorter notice. The more detail you can provide when you first contact us, the easier it is for us to fit you in.

Do I need to be at home during the clean?

No, you do not have to be present, provided we have agreed safe access arrangements. Many Pimlico clients choose to give us a set of keys or arrange key collection with a concierge. We log key codes carefully and never attach personal details to keys. If you prefer to be at home for the first visit and then decide about future access later, that is absolutely fine. We are used to fitting around home working, pets and family life with minimum disruption.
