Our Step-by-Step House Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & quote

You can contact us by phone, email or through our website. We will ask a few simple questions about your property: number of bedrooms and bathrooms, type of flooring, current condition and your preferred dates. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote and outline what is included so there are no surprises on the day.

2. Survey (virtual or onsite)

For larger homes, deep cleans or end of tenancy cleaning, we may suggest a short survey. This can often be done virtually via photos or a quick video call, but we can visit onsite in Catford where helpful. The survey lets us assess access, parking, specific problem areas and any delicate items that need extra care.

3. Preparation before we arrive

To make the most of your booking, we may ask you to carry out a few simple preparations, such as clearing floors of toys or clothes and making sure we can reach all areas to be cleaned. If you prefer, our team can handle basic tidying as part of the visit, which we will factor into the time and cost in advance.

4. Professional cleaning visit

On the day, our trained cleaners arrive on time with all necessary cleaning products and equipment, unless otherwise agreed. We work through your property systematically, room by room, following the agreed checklist. Particular attention is paid to kitchens, bathrooms and high-touch points such as handles and switches.

5. Final check and feedback

Before leaving, we carry out a quick visual check to make sure everything agreed has been completed. If you are at home, we are happy to walk you through the main areas. We welcome honest feedback so we can continually refine and improve the service you receive.

Transparent, Fair Pricing

We price our house cleaning in Catford clearly and competitively. The cost is usually based on:

Size of the property (rooms, bathrooms and overall floorspace)
Type of clean required (standard, deep, end of tenancy)
Frequency (one-off, weekly, fortnightly or monthly)
Any additional specialist services such as carpet cleaning

We provide fixed quotes for clearly defined jobs, and hourly rates where the scope is more open. There are no hidden extras: travel within our Catford service area, standard cleaning products and equipment are all included unless agreed otherwise.

Why Choose Professional House Cleaning Instead of DIY

Many of our clients are perfectly capable of cleaning, but choose professional help for good reasons:

Consistency: a scheduled clean means tasks are not put off when life gets busy.
Depth of clean: experienced cleaners know where dirt collects and how to tackle it efficiently.
Proper products and equipment for carpets, upholstery and different surfaces.
Time saving: you can focus on work, family or rest while we handle the hard work.
Better hygiene through routine cleaning of high-touch areas and bathrooms.

As a local Catford company, we see the same properties regularly, so we understand the building styles, common problem spots and what works best over time.

Insurance, Training and Professional Standards

Inviting cleaners into your home is a matter of trust. To protect you and your property, Catford Carpet Cleaners operates to robust standards:

Public liability cover to safeguard against accidental damage to your property.
Goods in transit insurance where we transport specialist cleaning equipment.
Trained and vetted teams who understand correct product use and safe working methods.
Clear risk assessments for more involved or intensive cleans.
Supervision and spot checks to maintain consistent quality.

Our cleaners are briefed on confidentiality, key holding (where agreed) and respectful conduct in every home. You can feel confident that your property is in professional hands at all times.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We believe a clean home should not come at the expense of your belongings or the environment. Our approach focuses on:

Careful handling of furniture, fixtures and personal items, with extra care around electronics and delicate surfaces.
Using microfibre cloths and appropriate tools to avoid scratching or damage.
Choosing effective, low-impact products wherever possible, and using stronger chemicals only when necessary.
Efficient water and product use to minimise waste.
Recycling packaging and containers from our supplies responsibly.

If you have allergies, pets or specific product preferences, let us know in advance so we can tailor our materials and methods.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does house cleaning in Catford cost?

Pricing depends mainly on the size of your property, how often you would like us to visit and whether you need a standard clean, deep clean or end of tenancy service. Smaller flats needing light upkeep will cost less than larger family homes that require more time and attention. Once we know the basics, we provide a clear quote before any work is booked, so you know exactly what you will pay. There are no hidden charges, and any optional extras are listed separately.

Can you offer same-day or urgent house cleaning?

Where our schedule allows, we do our best to accommodate same-day or short-notice bookings in Catford, particularly for move-out cleans or last-minute visits before guests arrive. Availability will depend on the day and the size of the job. If we cannot fit you in immediately, we will offer the soonest possible slot and may suggest a focused clean of priority areas. Calling us as early in the day as you can gives us the best chance of arranging an urgent visit.

Are you insured while working in my home?

Yes. We operate with comprehensive public liability cover to protect against accidental damage or injury during our work. Where we transport equipment or materials, appropriate goods in transit insurance also applies. Our teams are fully briefed on safe working practices, secure key holding where agreed, and respecting your privacy. While incidents are rare, having the right insurance in place provides peace of mind for both you and our cleaners every time we enter your property.

What is included in a typical house cleaning service?

A standard visit focuses on the main living areas, kitchen and bathrooms. We dust and wipe accessible surfaces, clean sinks, toilets, baths and showers, wipe kitchen worktops and appliance exteriors, vacuum all floors and mop hard flooring. Bins are emptied and obvious marks on surfaces are removed where possible. Deep cleaning of ovens, inside cupboards, carpets and upholstery, or internal windows can be added on request. Before your first booking we will agree a clear checklist, so you know exactly what is included each time.

How far in advance should I book?

For regular weekly or fortnightly house cleaning in Catford, it is sensible to arrange your slot at least one to two weeks in advance to secure your preferred day and time. One-off or deep cleans are best booked a little earlier, especially around busy periods such as month-end and holidays. That said, we often have some flexibility, so if you need a clean at shorter notice, it is always worth contacting us. We will either confirm an immediate slot or offer the nearest available alternative.
