The service, locally
One-off deep cleaning in St James's SW1
Compact purpose-built flats in SW1 need a strict top-down order or the dust just relocates: high dusting, then appliances, then surfaces, then floors — and the white goods pulled out where the gap allows.
Compact SW1 flats reward a different order of work: everything is close together, so a top-down sequence matters more than in a house or the dust simply relocates.
Typical home here: compact purpose-built flats. Access and parking: Royal Parks restrictions, listed building rules and narrow service entrances off Duke Street.

Where dirt actually hides in St James's 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.
