Our domestic cleaning is designed to keep your home clean, hygienic and comfortable. We tailor every visit to your property and priorities, but a typical clean will cover:

• Dusting of all accessible surfaces, shelves, skirting boards and sills
• Vacuuming of carpets, rugs, stairs and soft furnishings as agreed
• Mopping of hard floors (tiles, vinyl, laminate, sealed wood)
• Full bathroom clean – toilets, basins, baths, showers, taps and tiles
• Kitchen surfaces, hob and exterior of appliances wiped and sanitised
• Fingerprints and marks removed from doors, light switches and handles
• General tidy of living areas and bedrooms according to your instructions

For homes that need a deeper refresh, we can add deep cleaning, oven cleaning and of course our specialist carpet and upholstery cleaning services.

Our Step-by-Step House Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Quotation

Contact us by phone, email or through our website and tell us about your property: size, number of rooms, type of flooring and any particular issues or requests. We will ask a few practical questions and provide a clear, no-obligation estimate based on your description and the frequency of cleaning you require.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most regular house cleans, a brief virtual survey using photos or video call is sufficient. For larger homes or more complex requirements, we may recommend an onsite visit. This allows us to assess access, parking, surfaces, and any delicate items so we can allocate the right time, products and professional team.

3. Preparation & First Clean

Before the first clean, we confirm the agreed checklist, price and schedule. On the day, our cleaners arrive in uniform, with all necessary equipment and products unless you prefer us to use your own. We walk through the property with you where possible, confirm priorities, then work systematically room by room to deliver a thorough initial clean.

4. Ongoing Visits and Quality Checks

For repeat bookings, we aim to send the same cleaner or small team so they become familiar with your home and preferences. We welcome feedback and adjust our checklist as your needs change. Periodic quality checks by supervisors help maintain high standards.

Transparent Pricing for House Cleaning

We price our house cleaning services fairly and transparently, typically on an hourly basis with a minimum booking time. The rate depends on the size of the property, frequency of visits and any specialist tasks required. There are no hidden charges – parking or congestion fees are discussed in advance where applicable.

Before you commit, you will receive a clear written quotation setting out:

• The hourly rate or fixed session price
• Estimated time per visit
• What is included in the clean
• Any optional extras and their cost

You only pay for the work agreed. If we think additional time is needed, we will discuss this with you before making any changes.

Why Choose Professional House Cleaners Instead of DIY

Many clients can clean themselves but choose professional cleaning for consistency and peace of mind. Our team is trained in using products and equipment effectively, avoiding damage to delicate surfaces and achieving better results in less time. We bring the right tools, from professional vacuums to microfibre systems, and follow proven methods for hygiene and cross-contamination control.

For you, this means more free time, a reliably clean home, and fewer disputes over cleanliness with landlords or letting agents. It also helps extend the life of carpets, flooring and fixtures by caring for them correctly rather than using harsh or unsuitable products.

Insurance and Professional Standards

When you invite cleaners into your home, you need to know you are protected. Westminster Carpet Cleaners is fully committed to safety and professional standards:

• Public liability cover for your protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage
• Goods in transit insurance where our services involve moving or transporting items
• Trained, vetted cleaning teams with clear identification and uniforms
• Method statements and risk assessments for larger or more complex jobs

We work carefully in occupied homes, respect privacy and security, and follow clear key-holding and alarm procedures where required.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every property as if it were our own. Furniture and delicate items are worked around carefully, and we avoid dragging or scraping anything that could cause damage. Where appropriate, we use floor protection and colour-coded cloths to maintain hygiene.

Sustainability is increasingly important to our clients in Westminster. We favour concentrated, effective detergents to reduce waste and can offer more eco-friendly products on request. Our teams are trained to use sensible quantities of water and chemicals, reducing environmental impact without compromising standards of cleanliness.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does house cleaning in Westminster cost?

The cost of house cleaning depends on the size of your property, how often we visit and the level of work required. Most clients choose a regular weekly or fortnightly clean, which we price on an hourly basis with a sensible minimum time per visit. Larger or more detailed cleans may be quoted as a fixed price once we understand your needs. We will always provide a clear written estimate before you book, so you know exactly what you are paying for and what is included.

Can you provide same-day or urgent house cleaning?

We do our best to accommodate urgent or short-notice cleans, especially for move-ins, move-outs or last-minute inspections. Same-day availability depends on our schedule and the size of the job, but we will always be honest about what we can realistically achieve in the time. If we cannot provide a full clean, we may suggest a focused service prioritising kitchens, bathrooms and high-traffic areas. The quickest way to check availability is to call us, and we will confirm options straight away.

Are your cleaners insured while working in my home?

Yes. Our company carries comprehensive public liability cover for work carried out in your home. Where items need to be transported, we also have appropriate goods in transit insurance. Our trained cleaners follow clear procedures to minimise risk, but if an accident does occur, you are properly protected. We are happy to provide details of our insurance cover on request, and we encourage clients to raise any concerns immediately so we can deal with them quickly and fairly.

What exactly is included in a standard house cleaning service?

A standard service focuses on maintaining day-to-day cleanliness and hygiene. This usually includes dusting, vacuuming, mopping floors, cleaning bathrooms and WCs, wiping kitchen worktops, hobs and cupboard exteriors, and emptying bins. We also clean light switches, handles and obvious marks on doors and surfaces. Deep tasks such as inside ovens, internal cupboards, heavy limescale removal or detailed appliance cleaning are not automatically included, but can be added to your booking. Before we start, we agree a checklist with you so it is clear what will be done each visit.

How far in advance should I book a house clean?

For regular weekly or fortnightly cleaning, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance so we can match you with a suitable cleaner and time slot. For end of tenancy or one-off deep cleans, more notice is helpful, especially at busy times such as month end and holidays. That said, we often have some flexibility for shorter-notice bookings, particularly mid-week. If you have a specific deadline – for example, a move-out date – let us know as early as possible so we can reserve the time and plan the work properly.

Do I need to be at home during the clean?

You are welcome to be at home, but many of our clients prefer to give us access via a key or concierge. We operate secure key-holding procedures and can work around pets and alarms as needed. At the first visit, it is often helpful for you to be present, so we can walk through the property together, discuss priorities and agree any areas that are off-limits. After that, our professional team can clean while you are at work or out, and we will leave the property securely locked as instructed.
