| Day porter or housekeeper hours | £16 | per hour |
- Access and out-of-hours entry

This building stock
Where a contract earns its keep in Aldgate corporate floors
Glass partitions and meeting-room fronts
Full-height glazing in a corporate floor shows every handprint under downlights. Partition fronts, door pulls and frames are de-smeared with a two-cloth method, not sprayed and smeared.
Reception hospitality and client suites
Cups, glassware, water stations and coffee rings in a client suite are a reputational issue rather than a hygiene one. The first zone cleaned each visit is the one a visitor sees first.
Kitchen sink traps, fridge seals and the coffee machine
The smell in an office kitchen almost always comes from the plughole, the fridge seal or the drip tray. All three are on the schedule rather than waiting for someone to complain.
Carpet traffic lanes and entrance matting
Soil arrives on shoes and stops in the first six metres. Matting is lifted and vacuumed underneath, and traffic lanes are rotated into the periodic extraction programme before they go visibly grey.
Under-desk floors and cable trays
The area nobody vacuums because chairs are in the way. Chairs get moved on the weekly pass, cable trays and floor boxes dusted, and chair castors cleaned so they stop marking the floor.
Washroom touch points, not just the pans
Cubicle locks, door plates, dispenser buttons, taps and the back of the seat are what people notice and what spreads illness. They get a dedicated colour-coded cloth and an EN 1276 sanitiser on every visit.

Eastern edge of the Square Mile where office towers meet Whitechapel's high street. The Gherkin at 30 St Mary Axe is the local landmark, and Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan) is how most of the workforce arrives — which is also why our teams reach Aldgate without a van where a contract does not need one.

Against 8,583 residents that is a workday ratio of 71.54, which is what decides how heavily the washrooms, kitchens and traffic routes here are used.

Office cleaning reviews from Greater London customers
My first time using this company for a moving in clean & I could not have been more impressed. Timely arrival, Dara & team were amazing, and they did a super job for me. When they'd finished my flat looked brand new & smelled so clean! I look forward to working with them again in… Read in full →
Great service. Cleaners were early and left the flat cleaner than when we moved in.
The team arrived on time, phoned me beforehand and got to work straight away after discussing the priorities. They worked extremely hard, were pleasant, polite and have done a great job cleaning the whole flat. I am recommending the service to others because it is just what people need.
