However, please keep in mind that we can’t guarantee the best results if there is more construction/renovation work to be done after the cleaning service.

​
We often get asked for prices over the phone however for most projects we insist on carrying out a free site visit. This enables us to get a real feel for the size of the project and how many cleaning operatives are required on the day. We can also establish what / if any additional equipment or materials are required.
