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 Sydenham 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.

Why Hello Services
What a regular cleaner in Sydenham actually gets you
One cleaner, not a rota
The same named person every visit, working in Sydenham already so travel is short and the slot is reliable around Sydenham (Overground), with this being London Borough of Lewisham territory. You meet them before the first clean and they keep your brief in Sydenham.
Every-visit list plus a rotation
Kitchen, bathrooms, floors, beds and bins happen every single time in Sydenham. One deeper task — skirtings, inside the fridge, cupboard fronts, limescale — rotates through around Sydenham (Overground), with 64% of homes here being flats, so the whole home is properly done across a quarter.
The standing brief
Every visit, plus one deeper task on rotation
Every single visit
Done every time in Sydenham SE26
- Kitchen worktops, sink and hob
- Appliance fronts and handles
One per visit, on rotation
The deeper task that changes each week
- Skirting boards and door frames
- Inside the fridge
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.

|---|---|---|
| Ironing | Included | +60 min |
- The same cleaner, the same slot
- Your Sydenham 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
- Steep hills, high-street loading windows and narrow side streets. 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 Sydenham homes need week after week
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 area
Sydenham in context
A long high street on the hill where the Crystal Palace once stood nearby. Sydenham Wells Park anchors the area and Sydenham (Overground) sets the commute, which in turn sets the cleaning slots people ask for: mid-morning once the trains have gone, or late afternoon before anyone is back.

Questions
Sydenham SE26 regular cleaning questions, answered
Recurring cleaning is not on our national rate card at /prices in Sydenham, so we quote it per home rather than publishing a figure: tell us the size, the frequency and the hours, with this being a short walk from Sydenham (Overground) — and Sydenham Wells Park a few streets away, and you get a fixed written price with a 2-hour minimum visit. A typical Sydenham two-bedroom takes about three hours weekly around Sydenham (Overground). Products, equipment, insurance, London Borough of Lewisham parking and ULEZ are all inside the quote — there is nothing added afterwards on the streets near Sydenham Wells Park, with 33% social-rented stock nearby.
Yes. One named, DBS-checked cleaner is assigned to your slot and they are someone already working in Lewisham across SE26, with 31% one-person households here, 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 on SE26 jobs, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
2% houses, so there is no single answer. Flats here mostly go fortnightly, houses mostly weekly on the Sydenham rounds, with 64% of homes here being flats, 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 across SE26, with Lewisham parking rules in play. If a home is empty most of the day, fortnightly with a slightly longer visit is usually the better value on the streets near Sydenham Wells Park, with 31% one-person households here.
