The service, locally
One-off deep cleaning in Kensington W8
Kensington's period stock rewards detail over speed: cornices and light fittings by pole, sash boxes vacuumed out, grout steamed, radiator backs and floorboard edges done by hand rather than mopped over.
Kensington's conversions were never designed to be cleaned quickly: high ceilings put cornices and light fittings out of arm's reach, sash boxes hold grit, and original bathrooms have grout and enamel that respond to dwell time rather than pressure.
Typical home here: period conversions and mansion blocks. Access and parking: Mansion blocks with cage lifts and porter sign-in; Kensington High Street loading windows are short.

55 checked items · 6 room groups · every one of them in Kensington W8
Kitchen
90–150 minThe longest room in any deep clean, because grease needs dwell time and appliances have to come apart.

- 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

- Communal hallways, stairs and bin stores outside your demise
- Curtain and blind laundering (blinds are dusted, not washed)

Where dirt actually hides in Kensington 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.
