The service, locally

Regular cleaning across City of London Central London

The Square Mile — banking towers, medieval lanes and a resident population dwarfed by 500,000 weekday workers. Barbican and Golden Lane flats, converted counting houses and a handful of new riverside blocks. With 98% of homes here being flats and 51% of households a single person, the borough splits neatly between short weekly visits in flats and longer fortnightly ones in houses — and we size the slot to the property rather than the postcode.

Who books here: shared and privately rented flats where two or three adults split the slot between them. Access and parking: Congestion Charge and ULEZ, ring-of-steel camera controls, almost no free kerb — loading bays must be booked around office hours.

Extras (optional — everything else is already included)

£66 a visit

3 hrs at £22/hr · about £286 a month · £624 a year less than monthly rates

  • The default London booking and the one that keeps a home genuinely on top. Nothing builds up between visits, so the same hours buy more rotation work each week.
  • 3 hours is what a 2 bedroom in Aldgate realistically needs at this frequency — Two bedrooms made and vacuumed, kitchen and bathroom in full, second WC where fitted, all floors, skirting spot-clean, two rotation tasks.
  • City of London straddles the Congestion Charge zone. It is absorbed, not added — your hourly rate is the London-wide one.
  • No contract and no minimum term. Move or skip any visit with 24 hours' notice.

How a recurring booking runs

Setting up a regular clean in City of London once, then it just happens

Three steps, and only the first two need you. After that the slot runs itself — the same sequence behind every City of London recurring booking we hold.
  1. Tell us the home and the frequencyStudio to five bedrooms, weekly, fortnightly or monthly. We suggest the visit length that actually fits the property rather than selling you the shortest slot.
  2. Meet your cleaner before the first visitOne named cleaner is assigned to your slot. They walk the home with you once, note the things you care about, and that becomes your standing brief.
  3. Agree the every-visit list and the rotationKitchen, bathrooms, floors and beds happen every single time. Everything deeper — oven fronts, inside the fridge, skirtings, windows, wardrobe tops — goes on a rotation so a different deep task is done each visit.

Why Hello Services

What a regular cleaner in City of London actually gets you

One cleaner, not a rota

The same named person every visit, working in Aldgate already so travel is short and the slot is reliable around Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan), with this being a short walk from Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan). You meet them before the first clean and they keep your brief in Aldgate.

Every-visit list plus a rotation

Kitchen, bathrooms, floors, beds and bins happen every single time on City of London bookings. One deeper task — skirtings, inside the fridge, cupboard fronts, limescale — rotates through in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 2% of Aldgate homes being houses, so the whole home is properly done across a quarter.

The standing brief

Every visit, plus one deeper task on rotation

Every City of London cleaner works to the same standing brief: the left column on every visit, one task from the right rotated through each time. Your own list sits on top of it, not instead of it.

Every single visit

Done every time in City of London

  • Kitchen worktops, sink and hobCleared, degreased and dried. Splashback and tap descaled, hob and control knobs wiped, sink polished and the drainer emptied.
  • Appliance fronts and handlesOven door, hob surround, fridge, dishwasher and microwave outside and inside the door — the greasy edges a rushed clean skips.

One per visit, on rotation

The deeper task that changes each week

  1. Skirting boards and door framesWiped by hand along one floor of the property, plus the scuff line behind doors.
  2. Inside the fridgeShelves and drawers out, washed and dried, seals cleaned and out-of-date items flagged rather than binned.

Ten rotation tasks, one per visit — a weekly booking works through the whole list roughly every ten weeks, a fortnightly one across five months. You can pin a task to the top of the rotation whenever you like.

What a routine visit does not cover

  • Inside the oven — booked as an add-on or as a quarterly one-off, because it takes an hour on its own.
  • Exterior windows above ground floor, which need reach-and-wash equipment and a separate visit.

Hourly rates

Regular cleaning rates in City of London borough-wide

The same hourly rate applies in every City of London postcode. Products, equipment, insurance, City of London Corporation parking, the Congestion Charge and ULEZ are inside it, and there is no weekend or evening premium.

2×/week

£21 /hr

Two shorter visits, usually a Monday and a Thursday. Chosen by busy family houses and shared professional flats where the kitchen and bathrooms need resetting midweek rather than once at the weekend.

Weekly

£22 /hr

The default London booking and the one that keeps a home genuinely on top. Nothing builds up between visits, so the same hours buy more rotation work each week.

Recommended visit lengths and weekly cost for City of London
Home sizeWeekly visitFortnightly visitWeekly costWhat fits in the visit
Studio2 hrs2.5 hrs£44Kitchen surfaces, hob and sink, shower room descaled, floors throughout, bed changed with your linen, bins out, one rotation task.
1 bedroom2.5 hrs3 hrs£55Full kitchen and bathroom, living room and bedroom dusted and vacuumed, hallway floor, mirrors and glass, bins, one to two rotation tasks.

All rates are in GBP and are the price you pay, with products, equipment, insurance, parking, permits and ULEZ already inside them. Regular domestic cleaning in an occupied home is supplied VAT-free where the cleaner is self-employed; landlord, managing-agent and company-invoiced contracts are quoted plus VAT at 20%.

Extras and local detail

What is included in City of London and what is not

Almost everything people expect to be an extra is already inside the rate across City of London. The genuine add-ons are listed here with their price and the time they take.
Regular cleaning extras and inclusions in City of London
ExtraCostTimeDetail
Ironing£22+60 minCharged at the same hourly rate as the clean. A standard basket is about an hour; tell us at booking so the slot is long enough rather than eating the clean.
The same cleaner, the same slot
Your Aldgate visit is assigned to one cleaner who lives or already works in City of London, so travel is short and the slot holds week after week. You meet them before the first clean.
Parking and permits
Aldgate gyratory red routes, tower-block concierge sign-in and lift booking. Any City of London Corporation permit or visitor bay is arranged and paid for by us and never appears on your invoice.
Congestion Charge
Part of City of London sits inside the Congestion Charge zone. On a recurring booking that is a daily cost we absorb — the hourly rate is the same as anywhere else in London.
ULEZ
Every Hello Services vehicle is ULEZ-compliant. Most regular cleaners in this area travel by public transport anyway, which is why the slot times are so reliable.
Getting in when you are out
Concierge collection is registered once and then repeats automatically, so nobody has to be home. Key safes and fobs are logged the same way.
Stairs and machines
Lift or ground-floor access at most addresses here, so full-size equipment comes to the door.
Changing or skipping a visit
Move, shorten or skip any visit with 24 hours' notice at no charge. Holidays are simply paused — there is no minimum term and no cancellation fee.
Hard water
Every London borough is in a hard-water area. Descaler on taps, screens and kettle is part of the weekly routine here rather than an occasional extra.

This housing stock

What City of London homes need week after week

Barbican and Golden Lane flats, converted counting houses and a handful of new riverside blocks. That stock is what a recurring visit here is designed around, borough-wide.

Hard water, every week

London sits on chalk and City of London is no exception. Taps, shower screens and kettles scale within days here, so descaler is part of the weekly routine and a full limescale pass comes round on the rotation.

One-off deep cleaning in Aldgate

Most regular bookings in City of London start with a single deep clean to get the home to a baseline, then the weekly slot keeps it there for a fraction of the cost.

About the borough

City of London in context

The Square Mile — banking towers, medieval lanes and a resident population dwarfed by 500,000 weekday workers. Roman Londinium's walled city, rebuilt after the 1666 fire and again after the Blitz, now layered with towers around Bishopsgate.

Cosmina and Gabriela turned up right on time to clean 4 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, kitchen and dining room. They were friendly, quick and thorough.

Had an above and beyond experience with our cleaners, Diana and Alex. They were honest, professional, friendly, and did an amazing job with what they were tasked with.

Uki and Ben helped to clean my flat following a large and mess kitchen renovation. They did a fantastic job considering the dust and mess. I came back after a couple of hours to a clean and liveable home. I cannot thank them enough!
