The service, locally
One-off deep cleaning in Barbican EC2
Much of EC2 is managed apartment living — concierge sign-in, booked goods lifts, integrated appliances and MVHR vents — so we arrange building access before the Barbican team arrives and open every appliance rather than wiping around it.
Deep cleaning in Barbican's blocks is as much a logistics job as a cleaning one: concierge sign-in, a booked goods lift, a loading bay with a time limit, and integrated appliances that have to be opened rather than wiped around.
Typical home here: managed apartment blocks. Access and parking: Estate loading bays must be booked with the car park office; goods lifts are shared and time-limited.

The checklist
Every room, every detail pass with real timings
55 checked items · 6 room groups · every one of them in Barbican EC2
Kitchen
90–150 minThe longest room in any deep clean, because grease needs dwell time and appliances have to come apart.

Bathrooms and WC
45–75 min eachChemistry, not effort: acid-safe descaler with contact time, then steam on grout and sealant.
- Limescale removed from shower screen and glass
Not included
- Exterior windows above ground floor without access equipment
- Garden clearance, jet washing and green-waste removal
- Mould caused by damp or disrepair — that is a repair, not a clean

- Loft, cellar or garage contents unless booked as an add-on
- Communal hallways, stairs and bin stores outside your demise
- Curtain and blind laundering (blinds are dusted, not washed)

Where dirt actually hides in Barbican homes
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.
