The service, locally

Regular cleaning across Lewisham South London

Deptford's market and Victorian New Cross, hill villages at Blackheath and Forest Hill, and Catford's high street. Victorian and Edwardian terraces and conversions, 1960s Catford estates and new Lewisham town-centre towers. With 57.7% of homes here being flats and 30.4% 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: a genuine mix of flats and houses, from first-time renters to families three moves in. Access and parking: Steep hills at Honor Oak and Forest Hill, narrow terraced streets and expanding CPZs across SE4 and SE14.

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 Bellingham and Downham 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.
  • London Borough of Lewisham permits and ULEZ are inside the rate. Lewisham is outside the Congestion Charge zone.
  • No contract and no minimum term. Move or skip any visit with 24 hours' notice.
Book this slot

How a recurring booking runs

Setting up a regular clean in Lewisham 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 Lewisham 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.

The standing brief

Every visit, plus one deeper task on rotation

Every Lewisham 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 Lewisham

  • 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 Lewisham borough-wide

The same hourly rate applies in every Lewisham postcode. Products, equipment, insurance, London Borough of Lewisham parking 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 Lewisham

Why Hello Services

What a regular cleaner in Lewisham actually gets you

One cleaner, not a rota

The same named person every visit, working in Bellingham and Downham already so travel is short and the slot is reliable on the streets near Beckenham Place Park nearby, with 33% social-rented stock nearby. You meet them before the first clean and they keep your brief across SE6.

Every-visit list plus a rotation

Kitchen, bathrooms, floors, beds and bins happen every single time on SE6 jobs. One deeper task — skirtings, inside the fridge, cupboard fronts, limescale — rotates through on the Bellingham and Downham rounds, with 45% owner-occupation locally, so the whole home is properly done across a quarter.

Extras and local detail

What is included in Lewisham and what is not

Almost everything people expect to be an extra is already inside the rate across Lewisham. The genuine add-ons are listed here with their price and the time they take.
Regular cleaning extras and inclusions in Lewisham
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 Bellingham and Downham visit is assigned to one cleaner who lives or already works in Lewisham, so travel is short and the slot holds week after week. You meet them before the first clean.
Parking and permits
Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level access — easy for a Luton. Any London Borough of Lewisham permit or visitor bay is arranged and paid for by us and never appears on your invoice.
Congestion Charge
Lewisham is outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is nothing to absorb and nothing to pass on.
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
Most regular customers here leave a key in a key safe or with us. Keys are coded, never address-labelled, and returned the day you stop.
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 Lewisham homes need week after week

Victorian and Edwardian terraces and conversions, 1960s Catford estates and new Lewisham town-centre towers. That stock is what a recurring visit here is designed around, borough-wide.

Hard water, every week

London sits on chalk and Lewisham 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.

About the borough

Lewisham in context

Deptford's market and Victorian New Cross, hill villages at Blackheath and Forest Hill, and Catford's high street. Kentish villages absorbed by railways from the 1840s; Deptford's naval dockyard and Deptford Creek shaped its industrial edge.
