Overview
Spring cleaning in Soho W1, explained
This page prices spring cleaning for Soho W1 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 52% privately rented and 4,257 households in total. Work starts at £145, fixed in writing, with parking and Westminster City Council permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How spring cleaning works in Soho
Five steps, the same on every W1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In W1, New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard — measured on the walk in from Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) rather than assumed from a map is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Agree the task list
Rooms, cupboard interiors, windows and any add-ons confirmed in writing, so the price and the scope match.
Step 2
Top-down, room by room
Cornice and light fittings first, then walls and joinery, then furniture, then floors — nothing lands on a surface already cleaned.
Step 3
Kitchen and bathroom detail
Cupboard interiors, appliance seals, grout, taps and shower screens descaled, which is where a London hard-water property shows its age.
Step 4
Soft furnishings and glass
Blinds, poles, upholstery vacuumed and interior glass and frames finished streak-free.
Step 5
Walk-through before we leave
You check the list with the team leader and anything not right is redone on the spot.
Why choose us
Why Soho customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Soho wall.
Crew sized to the job
Two cleaners for a flat, two to three for a house, working together in one visit rather than spreading the job across days. Pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default.
Booked around your day
Slots inside the week across every borough, with weekend and evening visits available where a concierge restricts contractor hours. Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a W1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Soho walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, with 28% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first in W1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Soho stock goes, a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
Spring cleaning prices in Soho
Fixed prices for W1 and the rest of Westminster. The number of rooms, how many cupboard interiors and windows are in scope, and London's hard water — limescale on taps, screens and tiling is the single biggest time cost in a spring clean here.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bed flat spring clean | £145 | 4–5 hrs | Priced on rooms and reachable surfaces rather than the clock, so a compact flat is never billed as a house. |
| Two-bedroom flat or maisonette | £195 | 5–7 hrs | A second bathroom and more cupboard interiors are what add the hours, not the extra bedroom itself. |
| Three-bedroom house | £265 | 7–9 hrs | Stairs, a hallway and usually two bathrooms mean a two-cleaner team for most of the day. |
| Four-bedroom house or larger | £340 | 1 day | Two or three cleaners on site together, because a spring clean loses its point if it is spread over two visits. |
| Add interior windows and frames | £45 | 1–2 hrs | Sash windows across London terraces come apart to clean properly, which is careful work rather than fast work. |
| Add oven, extractor and fridge strip-down | £75 | 1–2 hrs | Racks and filters are dip-tanked off site, which is a separate consumable and equipment cost. |

Scope
What's included in Soho
The same scope across W1, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- In Soho: a written room-by-room task list agreed before the visit, so nothing is assumed, timed against the walk in from Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line)
- On W1 jobs: inside kitchen cupboards and drawers emptied, wiped and relined where you have cleared them, agreed on the doorstep in Soho before anything is unpacked
- Standard on Westminster bookings: behind and under free-standing appliances and furniture the team can safely move, allowing for the 52% of W1 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- Skirting, door frames, switch plates, radiators, picture rails and cornice dusted and washed, noted on the Soho job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- In Soho: limescale removed from taps, shower screens and tiling, with grout scrubbed rather than sprayed, sized for the pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default
- On W1 jobs: blinds, curtain poles, light fittings and extractor grilles cleaned, and interior windows on request, spring cleaning prices included
Not included
- Exterior windows above ground-floor level, which need a reach-and-wash or cradle operator, handled by Westminster City Council or a specialist contractor instead
- Clearing and disposing of contents — that is a clearance booking, and we will quote both together, which we refer on to the right trade in Soho
- Mould remediation where the cause is structural damp rather than surface condensation, quoted separately if you need it arranged in W1
- Moving heavy furniture, pianos or safes, and anything that needs two people to lift safely, outside the fixed price on Soho bookings

Ana and her team cleaned performed a deep clean of our 3 bedroom home in London after we’d sold it, prior to the new buyers moving in.

Diana and Alex carried out a deep clean for my property prior to new tenants arriving. The actually cleaning was superb and I would highly recommend them. The only downside was the office and booking system. The poor couple had to travel from Wimbledon to sidcup after waiting for the previous client to attend and… Read in full →

Soho W1 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Soho — the numbers that actually change a spring cleaning quote.
In Soho (W1) the split is 98% flats to 2% houses over 4,257 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
Because 52% of Soho is privately rented and 28% socially rented, a lot of W1 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, with 28% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, so the fixing that matters in Soho is chosen on site — the usual failure here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Soho stock goes, a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Post-production studios, restaurants and above-shop flats packed into a Georgian grid. That character decides the practical detail of spring cleaning here far more than the borough boundary does. Soho sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default. Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, and two cleaners for a flat, two to three for a house, working together in one visit rather than spreading the job across days.

Common questions
Spring cleaning in Soho W1 — your questions.
How much does spring cleaning cost in Soho W1?
Studio or one-bed flat spring clean starts at £145 in Soho, with 28% social-rented stock nearby — and Carnaby Street and Golden Square a few streets away, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. The number of rooms, how many cupboard interiors and windows are in scope on this side of Westminster — and 20% owner-occupation locally, with 2% of Soho homes being houses, and London's hard water — limescale on taps, screens and tiling is the single biggest time cost in a spring clean here.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Soho W1?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions around Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line), with 98% of homes here being flats. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Soho most weeks on W1 jobs, with Westminster parking rules in play.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Soho?
In Soho, 5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on this side of Westminster, with 4,257 households on this patch. That covers spring cleaning on Soho jobs too.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Soho doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in around Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line). With 98% of Soho homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 98% flats neighbourhood — and a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, with this being Westminster City Council territory, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
What is not included in spring cleaning in Soho?
Exterior windows above ground-floor level, which need a reach-and-wash or cradle operator; Clearing and disposing of contents — that is a clearance booking, with Carnaby Street and Golden Square a few streets away, and we will quote both together; Mould remediation where the cause is structural damp rather than surface condensation; Moving heavy furniture, pianos or safes across W1, and anything that needs two people to lift safely. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Soho W1 price you agree is the price you pay on this side of Westminster, with 52% of W1 homes being privately rented.
Who books spring cleaning in Soho W1 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 52% of Soho privately rented and 20% owner-occupied, roughly half the W1 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on W1 jobs — and a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, with 2% of Soho homes being houses.
How quickly can you reach Soho from your Westminster round?
Carnaby Street and Golden Square is the marker we route to across W1 — and 98% of homes here being flats, with this being a short walk from Tottenham Court Road (Central, Northern, Elizabeth line), and pedestrian zones, night-time economy congestion and no lifts in most walk-ups — carry-up is the default. A W1 slot added to an existing Westminster round usually lands the same week rather than the next on this side of Westminster, with 20% owner-occupation locally.
