At Deep Cleaning, we provide reliable, thorough house cleaning across London, carried out by experienced, professional and fully insured cleaners. Whether you need a one-off deep clean or regular help to keep on top of things, we treat every home with the same care and attention we would our own.
What Our House Cleaning Service Includes
Our standard house cleaning visit focuses on the areas that make the biggest difference to day‑to‑day living comfort and hygiene:
- Dusting of surfaces, furniture, skirting boards and reachable light fittings
- Vacuuming of carpets, rugs and soft furnishings
- Mopping of hard floors (wood, tile, laminate, vinyl)
- Bathroom cleaning – toilets, sinks, taps, showers, baths and tiles
- Kitchen cleaning – worktops, hobs, cupboard fronts, splashbacks and sinks
- Wiping doors, handles and light switches where accessible
- Emptying bins and replacing liners (where provided)
- Straightening and tidying common living areas
We can tailor each visit to your priorities – for example, focusing more time on bathrooms and kitchen, or adding bedroom detailing when needed.

Local House Cleaning Expertise in London
We have years of hands-on experience providing house cleaning across London’s varied homes – from compact studio flats to large family houses and period properties. We understand the pressures of London living: long commutes, busy schedules and limited time for chores.
Our cleaners plan routes carefully to minimise delays, and we work with realistic arrival windows rather than unrealistic promises. If you have residents’ parking, controlled parking zones or concierge access, we arrange everything in advance so your clean runs smoothly.
Who Our House Cleaning Service Is For
Homeowners
Ideal if you want your home consistently clean but don’t have the time or energy to tackle everything yourself. We help keep surfaces, floors and bathrooms under control so weekends are free for family and rest.
Renters
Regular or one-off cleaning to keep your rental in great condition and avoid issues at inspection time. We also offer detailed end of tenancy cleaning tailored to your agent or landlord’s checklist.
Landlords
We clean between tenancies, after refurbishments, or prior to photography and viewings. Our professional approach supports your reputation and helps attract quality tenants.
Businesses
We support small offices, home offices and serviced apartments that need reliable, discreet cleaning in residential-style spaces. Flexible appointment times minimise disruption to your work.
Students
Shared houses and student flats benefit from periodic deep cleans or end-of-tenancy services. We are used to working in busy, shared spaces and can focus on kitchens and bathrooms where they’re most needed.

Our Step-by-Step House Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You can contact us by phone, email or through our online form. We’ll ask a few straightforward questions about your home: number of bedrooms and bathrooms, approximate size, current condition and what you want to achieve. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quotation and suggest the most suitable service: regular, one-off, deep clean or end of tenancy.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most homes, a short virtual survey (photos or video call) is enough for us to assess access, parking, flooring types and any special requirements. For larger or more complex properties, we may arrange a quick onsite visit. This ensures that on the day, the team arrive with the right equipment, enough time allocated and a clear plan.
3. Preparation & Cleaning Day
Before our arrival, we ask that you put away important valuables and remove obvious clutter from floors and worktops where possible. On the day, our professional cleaners arrive within the agreed time window, carry out a walk‑through with you if you’re home, then work methodically through the agreed checklist. At the end, we invite you to inspect the property and raise anything you’d like us to revisit before we leave.
Transparent Pricing for House Cleaning in London
We aim for clear, predictable pricing with no hidden extras. Our house cleaning is usually priced in one of two ways:
- Hourly rate – common for regular weekly or fortnightly cleans, ideal when tasks may vary each visit.
- Fixed price per job – more suitable for deep cleans, end of tenancy and one-off projects with a defined scope.
Prices depend on property size, frequency, current condition and any add-ons such as oven or fridge cleaning. We explain what is included in your quote and confirm whether cleaning products and equipment are supplied by us or by you, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why Choose Professional House Cleaning Over DIY?
Cleaning your own home is perfectly possible, but many clients choose us because we can deliver a more consistent, thorough result in less time. Our team understands correct product use on different surfaces, how to avoid cross-contamination between bathrooms and kitchens, and how to clean efficiently without cutting corners.
Professional cleaning also reduces the physical strain associated with heavy mopping, reaching awkward corners and scrubbing scale or grease. With scheduled visits, your home stays at a steady level of cleanliness rather than falling into cycles of overwhelm and catch-up.
Insurance, Training and Professional Standards
Your home is important, and we take our responsibilities seriously. Deep Cleaning is:
- Fully insured for public liability, protecting you in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury during a visit.
- Covered by appropriate goods in transit insurance when we transport our equipment and materials to and from your property.
- Staffed by trained cleaning teams who follow clear procedures and checklists tailored to UK homes.
All cleaners receive ongoing training in safe product handling, correct use of equipment, working in occupied homes and maintaining client confidentiality.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every property with care and respect. On each visit we:
- Use colour-coded cloths and mop heads to avoid cross-contamination
- Protect delicate surfaces by testing products on inconspicuous areas first
- Avoid harsh abrasives on sensitive finishes such as stone, glass and chrome
- Ventilate rooms where possible to reduce chemical residues
Where practical, we use concentrated or low‑waste products and reusable microfibre cloths to reduce unnecessary packaging and landfill. If you prefer, we are happy to work with your own eco‑labelled products, provided they are suitable for the surfaces in your home.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house cleaning in London cost?
Costs depend on the size of your property, how often you’d like us to visit, and whether you need a standard or deep clean. As a general guide, smaller flats on a regular schedule will sit at the lower end of our pricing, while large homes or one-off deep cleans require more time and therefore cost more. We always provide a clear quotation before any work is booked, outlining the expected duration, rate and what is included in the price.
Can you provide same-day or urgent house cleaning?
We do our best to accommodate urgent requests where our schedule allows. Same-day or next-day appointments are sometimes possible, particularly on weekdays, but cannot be guaranteed. If you need an urgent clean for a move, inspection or unexpected situation, let us know your timescales and priorities. We will advise what can realistically be achieved in the time available and provide a quote based on the number of cleaners and hours required for your specific circumstances.
Are your cleaners insured while working in my home?
Yes. We operate with comprehensive public liability cover, which protects you if accidental damage or injury occurs during a booking. In addition, our equipment and materials are covered by appropriate goods in transit insurance while being transported to and from your property. All cleaners work under our company policies and are trained to minimise risk, but should something go wrong, we follow a clear incident and claims procedure. Full details of our insurance can be provided on request before you confirm your booking.
What exactly is included in a standard house cleaning visit?
A standard visit focuses on regular maintenance tasks: dusting furniture and surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathrooms (toilets, sinks, showers, baths and tiles) and wiping kitchen worktops, hobs and cupboard exteriors. We also empty bins and carry out light tidying in living areas. Internal windows and glass are cleaned where easily reachable. Before your first booking, we agree a brief checklist together so you know exactly what to expect and we know which areas are most important to you.
How far in advance should I book house cleaning?
For regular weekly or fortnightly slots, it’s best to book at least one to two weeks in advance so we can offer days and times that suit you. One-off or deep cleans, especially around peak times such as end of the month or before holidays, should ideally be booked a little earlier. That said, if you have a more flexible schedule, we can sometimes fit you in at shorter notice. Contact us with your preferred dates and we’ll let you know the earliest availability.
