Overview

How it works
Step 1
First job, and usually the reason the machine smells — done over a tray, not your floor.
Step 2
Drawer and housing scrubbed clear of the softener sludge that blocks the siphon.
Step 3
Gasket folded back and cleaned all the way round, drum treated for scale and biofilm.
Step 4
A hot cycle run with descaler so the heater element is clear, not just the visible parts.
Step 5
Levels checked, hoses inspected and anything failing flagged in writing.
Why choose us
£5m public liability and COSHH sheets for every product, which matters when the appliance is in a communal utility room in a managed block.
One technician; the visit is usually booked alongside an oven or fridge clean to make the London call-out worth it. Aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking.
Next-day availability across most London postcodes, with weekend slots for tenancy changeovers. Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan) is the nearest station, so a EC3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in EC3, with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 51% one-person households in Aldgate, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in EC3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Aldgate stock goes, and with 48% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Washing machine deep clean | £65 | 60–75 min | Drawer, dispenser housing, door seal and filter cleaned by hand, then a descaling service wash run through the drum. |
| Washer-dryer deep clean | £80 | 1.5 hrs | The condenser side traps lint as well as scale, so there is a second circuit to clear. |
| Tumble dryer clean and lint clear | £60 | 45–60 min | Lint build-up behind the drum is the fire risk; the heat exchanger is pulled and washed. |
| Dishwasher deep clean | £55 | 45 min | Filter, spray arms and the sump cleared of the scale that blocks jets in London's hard water. |
| Laundry pair bundle | £110 | 2 hrs | Washer and dryer in one visit, so one call-out and one parking charge instead of two. |

Prices include VAT with a £65 minimum charge. London water runs hard to very hard at roughly 250–350 mg/l calcium carbonate, which is why heaters scale and drums smell here far faster than in soft-water parts of the UK — descaling is part of the method, never an upsell.

Working in Aldgate
Aldgate EC3 is post-war and renter-heavy: 98% of homes here are flats and 2% are houses, across 4,914 households (ONS Census 2021).
With 48% private renting against 37% owner-occupied, most EC3 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Aldgate substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in EC3, with metal stud partitions between rooms, and with 51% one-person households in Aldgate, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Aldgate stock goes, and with 48% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the mistake that costs a EC3 customer twice.
Eastern edge of the Square Mile where office towers meet Whitechapel's high street. That character decides the practical detail of washing machine cleaning here far more than the borough boundary does. Aldgate sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking. Nearest station is Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan), and one technician; the visit is usually booked alongside an oven or fridge clean to make the London call-out worth it.
