Our Step-by-Step Office Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You can contact us by phone, email or our website form with basic details: address in Kennington, size of the space, number of desks, washrooms and your preferred cleaning frequency. We’ll discuss what you need, any security or access points, and any particular problem areas. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining what’s included, the schedule and pricing structure.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most offices, we recommend a short survey – either virtual (via photos or video call) or an onsite visit. This allows us to:
- Assess floor types, furniture and layout
- Check access, parking and alarm procedures
- Identify any specialist cleaning needs
- Confirm time estimates for each visit
This step ensures our quote is accurate and that we send the right number of trained cleaners with suitable equipment and products.
3. Preparation & First Clean
Once you’re happy to proceed, we book in your first clean. We agree key holder arrangements, alarm codes where relevant, and preferred cleaning times (morning, evening or daytime). On the day, our professional team arrive in uniform, sign in where required, walk through the agreed specification and get started methodically. After the first visit, we gather your feedback and fine-tune the checklist so ongoing cleans match your expectations.
Transparent Office Cleaning Pricing in Kennington
We believe in simple, transparent pricing. Office cleaning is usually charged either:
- Per hour, with a minimum visit length, or
- As a fixed rate per visit, based on agreed specification and time needed
Costs depend on the size of your office, frequency of cleaning, whether you require evening or weekend visits, and any specialist tasks such as deep cleaning or periodic carpet cleaning. All prices are confirmed in writing before work starts, with no hidden extras. If your requirements change – for example you add a new floor or reduce your space – we review and adjust the price with you in advance.
Why Professional Office Cleaning Beats DIY
Leaving staff to clean their own workspace or relying on basic in-house cleaning often leads to inconsistent standards and missed hygiene hotspots. As professional cleaners, we bring:
- Systematic routines that cover all key areas each visit
- Commercial-grade equipment and appropriate products for different surfaces
- Knowledge of correct disinfection methods and contact times
- Trained eyes to spot wear, damage or hygiene risks early
- Documented schedules and checklists for accountability
This not only creates a more pleasant working environment but also supports staff wellbeing and presents a better image to your clients and visitors.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We run our service to clear, professional standards so you can trust us in your workplace.
- Goods in transit insurance – cover for your items while we are transporting cleaning equipment through your premises.
- Public liability cover – protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury during our work.
- Trained moving teams – our cleaners are trained to move chairs, light furniture and office items safely when cleaning, and to return them as found.
All team members are vetted, referenced and supervised, with regular on-the-job training. We follow safe working practices, COSHH requirements and your own building policies.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your office as if it were our own. That means:
- Using protective pads or sliders where needed when moving furniture
- Only using appropriate products on delicate surfaces and finishes
- Ensuring electrical items are cleaned safely without moisture going where it shouldn’t
- Closing windows, switching off lights (if requested) and locking up properly after visits
We are also committed to more sustainable cleaning. Wherever practical, we use concentrated products, refillable bottles and microfibre systems to reduce waste. We can work with your recycling arrangements and are happy to discuss more environmentally conscious options for your Kennington office.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does office cleaning in Kennington cost?
Pricing depends mainly on the size of your office, how often you’d like us to clean, and whether you require extras such as regular carpet cleaning or deep cleans. Smaller offices may only need a few hours per week, while larger sites often require daily visits. After a short discussion and, if needed, a survey, we provide a clear written quote detailing the hourly or per-visit rate and exactly what’s included. There are no hidden fees, and we review the price with you if your needs change.
Can you provide same-day or urgent office cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we do our best to help with same-day or urgent office cleaning in Kennington – for example, before an important client visit or after an unexpected spill or incident. Availability depends on team capacity and the size of the job, so it’s always best to phone us as early as possible. For ongoing contracts, we can build in flexibility for short-notice extras. Even when we respond quickly, we still work to our usual professional standards and safety procedures.
Are your office cleaners insured?
Yes. We carry comprehensive public liability cover as well as goods in transit insurance related to our cleaning activities. This protects you in the unlikely event of accidental damage or an incident while we’re working on your premises. Our team are fully briefed on safe handling of equipment and your office items, and we record any pre-existing issues we notice. We’re happy to provide proof of insurance and risk assessments on request, and we can comply with building-specific induction or permit-to-work requirements where needed.
What exactly is included in a regular office cleaning service?
A regular service usually includes desks and surface dusting, floor vacuuming and mopping, bin emptying, cleaning of kitchens and washrooms, and disinfection of high-touch points such as door handles and switches. Reception areas, meeting rooms and communal spaces are tidied and cleaned according to your agreed specification. We can also add periodic tasks such as deep cleaning of kitchens or washrooms, and scheduled carpet cleaning. During the quotation, we go through a detailed checklist with you so you know exactly what will be done on every visit.
How far in advance do I need to book office cleaning?
For regular contracts, we recommend arranging your office cleaning at least one to two weeks in advance. This allows time for a survey if needed, security arrangements, and aligning the right team and schedule to your requirements. However, if you have an urgent need or a short-term project, do still get in touch – we can often find a solution, especially for smaller spaces. Once your service is set up, your visits are scheduled in advance, and we can adjust days or times with reasonable notice.
