Will I get the same cleaner every time in Deptford?

Yes. One named, DBS-checked cleaner is assigned to your slot and they are someone already working in Lewisham on the Deptford rounds, with Lewisham parking rules in play, which is what makes the timing reliable. You meet them before the first visit. If they are ill or on holiday we offer a briefed cover cleaner and you are free to decline it and skip instead around Deptford (Southeastern), with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory.

Should I book weekly or fortnightly in Deptford?

2% houses, so there is no single answer. Flats here mostly go fortnightly, houses mostly weekly in this 83% flats neighbourhood, with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory, and we size the visit to the property rather than the postcode. As a rule, if you cook most nights or the home has more than one bathroom, weekly costs less per hour and gets more done around Deptford (Southeastern), with this being a short walk from Deptford (Southeastern). If a home is empty most of the day, fortnightly with a slightly longer visit is usually the better value in Deptford, with 24% owner-occupation locally.

What gets done on every visit, and what rotates?

Kitchen, bathrooms, floors, dusting, beds, mirrors, touch points and bins happen every single visit without being asked around Deptford (Southeastern), with 48% social-rented stock nearby. One deeper task rotates through each visit — skirtings, inside the fridge, cupboard fronts, internal windows, radiators, wardrobe tops, upholstery, limescale, grout and doors — so the whole home gets proper attention across a quarter on SE8 jobs, with 24% owner-occupation locally — and 83% of homes here being flats.

Do I need to be at home?

No, and most Deptford customers are not. Most people use a key safe or let us hold a coded key around Deptford (Southeastern). Keys are never labelled with an address and are returned the day you stop across SE8.

Is there a contract or a minimum number of visits?

No contract, no minimum term and no cancellation fee on SE8 jobs. Move, shorten or skip any visit with 24 hours' notice at no charge, pause for holidays on the Deptford rounds, with 83% of homes here being flats, and stop whenever you like.

Do you bring products and equipment to SE8 addresses?

Yes, all included. Fragrance-free, child-safe and eco-certified products are a free swap — just ask and it becomes the default for your slot around Deptford (Southeastern), with 17% of Deptford homes being houses. Where you would rather we used your own vacuum, that is fine too across SE8.

Is ironing or laundry included?

Putting a wash on at the start and folding it at the end is included around Deptford (Southeastern). Ironing is charged at the same hourly rate as the clean — tell us at booking so the slot is long enough, rather than losing cleaning time to the ironing board in this 83% flats neighbourhood — and 17% of Deptford homes being houses, with 48% social-rented stock nearby.

What is not covered by a regular clean in Lewisham?

Inside the oven, exterior windows above ground floor, moving heavy furniture, decluttering, mould remediation and carpet extraction all sit outside a routine visit on SE8 jobs, with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory. Any of them can be booked as a one-off around Deptford (Southeastern), with a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood, and we will always tell you when a specialist is the right answer instead.

Do you cover the whole of Lewisham?

Yes — every SE4, SE6, SE8, SE12, SE13, SE14, SE23, SE26 postcode in Deptford, with 83% of homes here being flats, with Deptford covered from SE8. 2% houses, and we run recurring slots in both on Lewisham bookings.

What if I am not happy with a visit?

Tell us within 72 hours and your cleaner returns to put it right at no cost on SE8 jobs — and this being London Borough of Lewisham territory, with 7,370 households on this patch, or we reassign you to a different cleaner with no awkwardness. Recurring work only survives if each visit is right on this side of Lewisham, with a median age of 32 in this neighbourhood, so feedback changes the standing brief rather than being logged and forgotten.

Can I change my slot or my hours later?

Yes, at any point. People move from fortnightly to weekly when a baby arrives, add an hour before Christmas and drop back in January across SE8, with 7,370 households on this patch. Your rate follows the frequency you are actually on, and nothing needs re-signing on the Deptford rounds.

3 hrs a visit

Recurring domestic cleaning is quoted per home rather than from our national rate card — tell us the hours and frequency and you get a fixed written price, with no contract and no minimum term.

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 Deptford 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.

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.

Why Hello Services

What a regular cleaner in Deptford actually gets you

One cleaner, not a rota

The same named person every visit, working in Deptford already so travel is short and the slot is reliable, with 7,370 households on this patch. You meet them before the first clean and they keep your brief on Lewisham bookings.

Every-visit list plus a rotation

Kitchen, bathrooms, floors, beds and bins happen every single time around Deptford (Southeastern). One deeper task — skirtings, inside the fridge, cupboard fronts, limescale — rotates through in Deptford, with 33% one-person households here, so the whole home is properly done across a quarter.

Extras and local detail

What is included in Deptford SE8

Most of what people expect to pay extra for is already inside the hourly rate. The handful of genuine add-ons are priced here so nothing arrives as a surprise on the invoice.

Regular cleaning extras and inclusions in Deptford SE8
Extra	Cost	Time
Ironing	Included	+60 min

The same cleaner, the same slot: Your Deptford 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: Market-day closures on Deptford High Street, narrow creek lanes and estate lifts. 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 Deptford homes need week after week

Georgian survivors on Albury Street, Victorian terraces, estates and new creek-side blocks. That stock decides what a recurring visit has to do here week after week, so this is what your cleaner's routine is built around.

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.

Incredible service. They provided an excellent cleaning at our flat in New Malden. The house looks sparkling and cant wait to move in. Thanks to Josh.

Sadar came to do the cleaning of all appliances in my house and he did an extremely good job! There were a lot of items and in 4 hours everything was spotless!

★★★★★Hello Services

The cleaners arrived on time and did a very good job. They worked very hard. Unfortunately, they damaged a blind in the bedroom and left without telling me. Fortunately my son was able to repair the blind. If they had told me about the blind I would have given them a 10!
