The service, locally

One-off deep cleaning in Aldgate EC3

Aldgate's shared-tenancy homes get a whole-house deep clean rather than a room count: one visit, one team, one price, with the EC3 kitchen and bathrooms taking the bulk of the hours.

Shared houses around Aldgate are cleaned as one property, not as a set of rooms. The kitchen takes the longest because several people cook in it, the bathrooms scale fast, and every let bedroom needs its own detail pass. We quote whole-house so nobody is arguing about whose room was worse.

Typical home here: shared and student houses. Access and parking: Aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking.

How the day runs

A deep clean day in Aldgate from door to walk-round

Five steps, top down, around your furniture and your day — the same sequence on every Aldgate EC3 deep clean we run.
  1. Tell us the size and the conditionPick studio to 5-bed and say honestly how the place is: kept on top of, normally lived in, or a heavy build-up. Condition, not square footage, is what decides the hours.
  2. Get a fixed price on screenThe estimate is fixed against the size, condition and any add-ons you choose. Parking, permits, ULEZ, products and equipment are already inside it.
  3. Choose a slot that suits an occupied homeWeekends and evening starts carry no premium. Tell us which rooms matter most and whether anyone is working from home, and we sequence the day around it.
  4. Room-by-room deep clean, top downA DBS-checked team works ceiling to floor, room by room: high dusting and light fittings, then appliances and detail work, then surfaces, then floors last so nothing lands on a clean floor.
  5. Walk round together, then the put-right promiseWe walk the property with you at the end and note anything you want revisited. If you spot something within 48 hours, tell us and we come back to it free.

Why Hello Services

What a deep clean in Aldgate actually gets you

48-hour put-right promise

We walk the property with you before we leave. If you spot something in the next 48 hours, send a photo and we come back to it free — no argument, no second invoice.

Priced by size and condition, not by the hour

An hourly rate punishes you for a dirty oven. We quote on property size and honest condition, so a slow job is our problem and the price on screen is the price on the day.

DBS-checked, insured cleaners

Every cleaner is identity-checked, reference-checked and DBS-screened, and we carry £5m public liability plus treatment risk cover. Certificates on request before the visit.

All equipment and products included

Teams arrive with an oven dip tank, HEPA vacuum, steam unit, acid-safe descaler, high-dusting poles and a colour-coded microfibre system. Nothing of yours gets used.

Oven interior and extractor filters as standard

The single oven, hob, extractor canopy and filters are inside the price on every deep clean. They are the dirtiest thing in the room and the first thing you would notice if we skipped them.

Whole-house cleans for shared homes in Aldgate

Shared and student houses are quoted as one property and cleaned in one visit, with the kitchen and bathrooms given the hours they actually need. One invoice, split however the household likes.

The checklist

Every room, every detail pass with real timings

This is the list the team works from in Aldgate EC3. Timings are what the room actually takes in this housing stock — not a slot we hope to fill.

55 checked items · 6 room groups · every one of them in Aldgate EC3

This housing stock

Where dirt actually hides in Aldgate homes

New residential towers, student blocks and 1970s estates around Middlesex Street. That stock decides where a deep clean earns its money here, so these are the places we go first.

Extractor filters and the cupboard tops above the hob

Aerosolised cooking grease lands on the filter, the canopy and the flat tops of the wall units, then holds dust. It is the single dirtiest square metre in most London kitchens and the one a weekly clean never touches.

Limescale on screens, taps and toilet rims

Every London borough sits on hard water. Scale builds under the rim, around the tap base and across the shower screen, and it needs acid-safe descaler and contact time rather than a scourer and effort.

Shared-kitchen grease across every surface

Multiple cooks, one extractor. Grease films the wall units, the ceiling above the hob and the top of the fridge, and needs degreaser with dwell time on each pass.

Bedroom desks, walls and wardrobe interiors

Each let room is effectively a bedsit: desk area, wall marks behind it, wardrobe interior and skirtings all need individual attention.

Bathroom scale in a shared bathroom

Four or five showers a day builds scale and soap film faster than any family bathroom. Screens, trays and the extractor cover get the full descaler treatment.

Bin recesses, floors and door frames

The parts of a shared house nobody owns. Floors to the edges, bin cupboards, door frames and handles all get cleaned as a matter of routine.

About the area

Aldgate in context

Aldgate is one of City of London's EC3 neighbourhoods, built around The Gherkin at 30 St Mary Axe and served by Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan). Eastern edge of the Square Mile where office towers meet Whitechapel's high street.

What our teams walk into: new residential towers, student blocks and 1970s estates around middlesex street. With 98% of City of London dwellings being flats and a median age of 36.9, EC3 deep cleans skew towards shared and student houses rather than large empty houses.

Access decides how the day is scheduled. Aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking. Part of City of London sits inside the Congestion Charge zone and all of it is inside ULEZ. We confirm City of London Corporation's controlled parking position for the exact street before the booking is fixed, and that cost sits inside the quoted price.

Shared houses around Aldgate are cleaned as one property, not as a set of rooms. The kitchen takes the longest because several people cook in it, the bathrooms scale fast, and every let bedroom needs its own detail pass. We quote whole-house so nobody is arguing about whose room was worse.
