Who Our Domestic Cleaning Service Is For
Homeowners
Busy schedules, children, pets and long working hours all make it harder to keep on top of cleaning. We support homeowners in Kentish Town with regular weekly, fortnightly or monthly cleans, plus seasonal deep cleans to keep your home in top condition.
Renters & students
If you are renting a flat or house, we can help with regular upkeep so you keep your landlord happy, and thorough cleans at the end of your tenancy to maximise your deposit return. Students in shared houses often ask us for periodic deep cleans of kitchens and bathrooms when things have become a bit too much.
Landlords & letting agents
We work with local landlords and agents to provide end of tenancy and pre-let domestic cleaning. A well-presented, hygienic property not only looks better in photos, it also lets more quickly and attracts better tenants.
Local businesses
Smaller businesses operating from residential-style premises in Kentish Town – such as clinics, studios and offices in converted houses – often use our domestic cleaning service to keep their workspaces presentable and compliant with hygiene expectations.
What Is Excluded from Standard Domestic Cleaning
To keep pricing fair and transparent, some tasks are not included as standard but can often be added by arrangement:
- External window cleaning above ground floor
- Professional oven and appliance deep cleaning
- Carpet steam cleaning and stain treatment
- External areas (gardens, balconies, bin stores)
- High-level cleaning requiring ladders
- Removal of heavy items or rubbish clearance
- Mould remediation beyond light surface treatment
If you are unsure whether something is included, just ask during the enquiry stage – we will always give an honest answer and a clear price.
Our Step-by-Step Domestic Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & quote
You can contact us by phone, email or via our website. We will ask a few questions about your property (size, number of rooms, current condition) and what you would like done. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote and suggest a realistic cleaning duration. For regular cleaning we also discuss preferred days, times and access details.
2. Survey (virtual or onsite)
For larger homes, deep cleans or end of tenancy work, we may suggest a brief virtual survey (video call/photos) or an onsite visit. This helps us assess the level of soiling, identify any delicate surfaces and agree priorities. It also allows us to confirm the number of cleaners required and the time needed so there are no surprises on the day.
3. Preparation
Before we arrive, we ask that personal items, paperwork and valuables are put away where possible. On our side, we allocate a trained cleaning team, prepare the correct products and equipment, and plan the most efficient route through your property. When we arrive, we walk through the key areas with you (if you are present) to confirm your priorities before we start.
4. Thorough cleaning & final check
Our cleaners work methodically from top to bottom, room by room, following an agreed checklist. At the end, we carry out a quick check with you where possible, to ensure you are happy with the work and note any areas you would like us to focus on next time.
Transparent Pricing for Domestic Cleaning in Kentish Town
We price domestic cleaning mainly by time, with clear hourly rates depending on the type of service:
- Regular domestic cleaning – lower hourly rate for ongoing weekly or fortnightly bookings
- One-off deep & end of tenancy cleaning – fixed price based on property size and condition
- Optional extras (inside oven, inside fridge, internal windows, etc.) priced individually
All quotes are provided upfront and confirmed in writing. There are no hidden charges for standard products or equipment. Parking and congestion charges are discussed openly where applicable, particularly in central zones.
Why Choose Professional Domestic Cleaners Instead of DIY
Cleaning your own home is possible, but there are several advantages to using a professional team:
- We bring commercial-grade equipment and suitable products for each surface.
- Trained cleaners know how to work efficiently, achieving more in less time.
- We follow proven checklists, so key areas are not missed.
- Our work is covered by public liability and goods in transit insurance for equipment and materials.
- You gain back your own time for work, family or rest.
Most clients tell us the difference is not just in appearance, but in how their home feels: fresher, lighter and easier to maintain.
Insurance, Training and Professional Standards
As a local cleaning company, we take our responsibilities seriously. Kentish Town Carpet Cleaning is:
- Fully insured with comprehensive public liability cover
- Covered by goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials
- Staffed by trained, vetted cleaners with practical experience
We follow industry best practice for product use, colour-coded cloths and mops, and safe working methods in domestic environments. Our team are instructed to respect your privacy, handle your belongings carefully and report any concerns or existing damage they notice before starting work.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Looking after your home is about more than making it look clean. We focus on long-term care and sustainability:
- Using appropriate products for each surface to avoid damage
- Protecting delicate items and finishes, and checking before moving anything fragile
- Using microfibre cloths and modern equipment that reduce the need for harsh chemicals
- Choosing low-impact, environmentally considerate products where practical
- Reducing waste by reusing and recycling packaging from our supplies wherever possible
We are always happy to discuss particular preferences – for example, if you would like us to use only certain products in children’s rooms or around pets.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does domestic cleaning in Kentish Town cost?
Pricing depends on the size of your property, how often we visit and the current condition of your home. Regular weekly or fortnightly cleaning is usually charged at a lower hourly rate than one-off deep cleans, as the work is more predictable and less intensive. For end of tenancy or deep cleaning, we often provide a fixed price for the whole job, based on an initial discussion or survey. We will always give you a clear written quote before you commit to anything.
Do you offer same-day or urgent domestic cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we do our best to accommodate same-day or short-notice bookings in Kentish Town. This is subject to the size of the job, location and staff availability on the day. If we cannot provide a full deep clean at short notice, we may still be able to offer a focused clean on key areas such as kitchen, bathrooms and living spaces. It is always worth calling us – we will give you an honest answer and realistic timescales.
Are your cleaners insured, and what does the insurance cover?
Yes, our service is fully insured. We hold public liability insurance, which covers accidental damage to your property caused by our work, subject to policy terms. We also have goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials while travelling to and from your home. All cleaners are trained to work carefully and to report any issues immediately. We are happy to provide confirmation of our cover on request so you can book with confidence.
What exactly is included in a standard domestic cleaning visit?
A standard visit covers the routine tasks needed to keep a home clean and hygienic: dusting, vacuuming, mopping floors, cleaning bathrooms and toilets, and wiping down kitchen surfaces and appliance exteriors. Internal glass and mirrors are usually included, along with emptying bins where liners are provided. Inside ovens, inside fridges and cupboards, and carpet steam cleaning are not included as standard but can be added as extras. During booking, we agree a checklist with you so expectations are clear.
How far in advance should I book domestic cleaning?
For regular weekly or fortnightly cleaning, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance so we can secure your preferred day and time. For one-off deep cleans or end of tenancy work, particularly at busy times such as month-end, it is wise to contact us as early as possible. That said, we always keep some flexibility in our schedule and will do our best to help with shorter notice where we can, especially for existing clients.
Can I choose the same cleaner each time?
Where you book a regular slot, we aim to provide the same cleaner or small team for each visit, as this builds trust and consistency. Occasionally we may need to send a different cleaner due to holidays or illness, but your checklist and preferences are kept on file so standards remain the same. If you prefer a particular cleaner after a few visits, we will note this and do our best to keep that arrangement long term.
