- Full bathroom clean: toilets, sinks, baths, showers and tiles
- Kitchen clean: worktops, cupboard fronts, hobs and splashbacks
- Internal window sills, switches and handles
- Emptying bins and refreshing key high-touch areas
We also offer more targeted deep cleaning and end of tenancy cleaning when your home needs a thorough top-to-bottom refresh.
Who Our Domestic Cleaning Service Is For
Homeowners
Busy schedules, families, pets and daily life can quickly take over. We help homeowners in Foots Cray maintain a consistently clean, comfortable home without sacrificing evenings and weekends. You choose the priority areas; we build the clean around that.
Renters

Landlords
We work with landlords and local agents to turn properties around quickly between tenancies. Our team focuses on kitchens, bathrooms and flooring so your property is ready to market or move-in with minimal delay.

Our Step-by-Step Domestic Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone, email or our online form with brief details of your property size, number of bathrooms and what you would like cleaned. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on your requirements: one-off, regular, deep clean or move-out clean.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger homes or more complex jobs, we may carry out a short virtual survey (video call and photos) or an onsite visit in Foots Cray. This lets us confirm timings, discuss any delicate items and agree priorities so there are no surprises on the day.
3. Preparation
Before arrival, we confirm your appointment and any access arrangements. On the day, our trained, professional cleaners walk through the property with you where possible, confirm the agreed plan and set out protective measures for flooring and surfaces where needed.
4. The Clean
We work systematically through the property, room by room, following the agreed checklist. High-touch areas and bathrooms receive particular attention. If we identify anything that needs special treatment, we will highlight it and seek your approval before proceeding.
5. Final Check and Sign-off
Once the clean is complete, we invite you to inspect the property. Any minor touch-ups are dealt with there and then. For end-of-tenancy work, we can also provide a checklist summary for your records or for sharing with your landlord or agent.
Transparent Pricing for Domestic Cleaning
We price domestic cleaning in Foots Cray fairly and clearly, usually based on:
- Property size and number of bathrooms
- Condition of the property (standard clean vs deep clean)
- Frequency of visits (regular visits benefit from better rates)
- Any additional services, such as oven or carpet cleaning
Where possible, we work to a fixed price rather than an open-ended hourly cost, so you know exactly what you will pay before we start. There are no hidden charges, and any optional extras are itemised clearly.
Why Choose Professional Domestic Cleaning Over DIY?
Most people can do basic cleaning themselves, but professional domestic cleaners bring several clear advantages:
- Trained staff who know how to clean different surfaces effectively and safely
- Access to commercial-grade products and equipment for better results
- Systematic methods that reach areas often missed during quick household cleans
- Time savings, freeing you to focus on work, family or rest
- Consistent standards from visit to visit, rather than ad-hoc tidying
As local professionals, we also take responsibility for the outcome. If something is not right, we will put it right.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Welcoming cleaners into your home requires trust. Foots Cray Carpet Cleaners operates with full protection and clear standards:
- Public liability cover to protect you in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury during our work
- Goods in transit insurance for any specialist equipment and materials we bring to your property
- Trained moving teams when furniture needs to be shifted safely to clean underneath or behind
- Staff are reference-checked, supervised and follow clear working procedures
We work respectfully in your home: no unnecessary noise, no smoking, and careful handling of your belongings at all times.
Care, Protection and Sustainable Cleaning
Looking after your home means more than making it look clean. We focus on protection and sustainability too:
- Use of appropriate products for delicate surfaces such as natural stone and sealed wood
- Colour-coded cloths and mops to reduce cross-contamination between bathrooms and kitchens
- Measured use of chemicals to minimise residues and indoor air impact
- Where practical, use of lower-impact cleaning agents without sacrificing hygiene
- Efficient planning of visits in and around Foots Cray to reduce unnecessary travel
We are happy to discuss any specific sensitivities, allergies or product preferences you may have, and we will adapt our approach where feasible.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does domestic cleaning in Foots Cray cost?
The cost depends on the size of your property, the number of bathrooms, how often you would like us to visit and whether you need a standard or deep clean. Smaller flats generally take less time and cost less than larger family homes. We are happy to provide a clear, fixed quote after a short discussion or virtual survey so you know the exact price before booking. There are no hidden extras; any optional add-ons, such as oven or carpet cleaning, are itemised separately.
Can you provide same-day or urgent domestic cleaning?
Same-day or urgent cleaning in Foots Cray is sometimes possible, especially for smaller properties or when we have short-notice availability. It is always best to call us directly so we can check the schedule and see what can be arranged. While we cannot guarantee emergency slots every day, we will do our best to accommodate urgent requests, such as last-minute viewings, move-ins or surprise visits. Where we cannot attend immediately, we will offer the nearest available appointment.
Are you fully insured while working in my home?
Yes. We are fully insured to work in residential properties. Our cover includes public liability insurance and goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials. This means that, in the unlikely event of accidental damage or an incident while we are working, there is appropriate protection in place. We also have set procedures for reporting and resolving any issues. We treat clients’ homes with care, but insurance offers an extra layer of reassurance for you and for us.
What exactly is included in a standard domestic clean?
A standard domestic clean focuses on the tasks that keep your home feeling tidy and hygienic week to week. This usually includes dusting and wiping accessible surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathrooms (toilets, sinks, baths, showers), wiping kitchen worktops and cupboard fronts, and emptying household bins. We also clean internal window sills, light switches and handles as needed. Inside ovens, deep appliance cleans and carpet shampooing are not included as standard but can be added as extra services by agreement.
How far in advance should I book a domestic clean?
For regular weekly or fortnightly slots, it is sensible to book at least one to two weeks in advance so we can reserve a time that suits your routine. For one-off or deep cleans, especially around busy periods such as the end of the month or before holidays, a little more notice is helpful. That said, we often have some flexibility and may fit you in sooner, particularly on weekdays. If you have a specific deadline, such as a move-out date, let us know as early as possible so we can schedule accordingly.
Do I need to be at home while you clean?
You do not have to be present while we clean, although some clients prefer to be there for the first visit. Many regular customers provide a key or arrange secure access so we can clean while they are at work. We operate strict key-holding and data privacy procedures to protect your security. At the end of the visit, we can leave the property locked as instructed. We will agree access arrangements with you in advance so you are comfortable with how everything will work.
