Regular home cleaning
Domestic cleaning in Greenhithe and North Kent
Regular domestic cleaning runs from £84 a visit for a one bedroom home to £151 for a five bedroom cleaned weekly, and the band for your size is on this page with the hours that explain it. If the working week has been swallowing your Saturdays, this is the bit you get back. It covers the kitchen, bathrooms, floors, surfaces and the rooms you use most, weekly, fortnightly or monthly. Every visit is at least two and a half hours, products and equipment are in the price, and there's no call-out fee anywhere we cover. Your own figure is set once we've seen the place, and missing something on the checklist means a free re-clean if you tell us within 48 hours.
What does a domestic clean include?
Every visit follows a published room-by-room checklist. Kitchen surfaces, sink and hob, both sides of the bathroom, floors vacuumed and mopped, dusting, mirrors, bins, and beds made if you'd like them made. You agree the list before the first clean and we work to it. The checklist is the contract, so you can hold us to it.
Kitchen
Worktops, sink and taps descaled, hob and splashback, outside of the cupboards and appliances, floor washed. Inside the oven is a separate job.
Bathrooms
Bath, shower screen and tiles descaled, basin, toilet cleaned inside and out, mirrors polished, floor washed.
Bedrooms
Dusting, surfaces, mirrors, the skirting we can reach without shifting heavy furniture, floors vacuumed. Beds made or changed if you leave the linen out.
Living rooms
Shelves and surfaces dusted, glass and screens taken back, sofas and chairs vacuumed, floors done, cushions straightened.
Hall and stairs
Bannisters, light switches, door handles, front door glass, stairs vacuumed and hard floors washed.
Every visit
Bins emptied and relined, window sills wiped, rubbish taken out, doors and frames spot cleaned where they're marked.
What a regular visit doesn't cover: inside the oven, inside the fridge and freezer, inside windows, ironing, and machine cleaning of carpets. They're all priced below, so nothing turns up as a surprise on the invoice.
How much does domestic cleaning cost?
An expected band per visit, set by the size of your home. A one bedroom cleaned weekly is £84 to £96, a three bedroom is £112 to £142, and a five bedroom is £156 to £194. Products and equipment are included and there's no call-out fee anywhere we cover. Every visit runs at least two and a half hours, because the kitchen and the bathroom take what they take whatever the bedroom count.
The lower figure is the smallest honest version of that size and the higher one is a properly loaded version, and the difference between them is hours rather than opinion. Your own figure is fixed once we've seen the place, and it holds from then on.
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| One bedroom2.5 to 3 hours on site. Fortnightly £97 to £109, monthly £116 to £128. | £84 to £96 weekly |
| Two bedroom3 to 3.5 hours on site. Fortnightly £105 to £128, monthly £126 to £135. | £93 to £115 weekly |
| Three bedroomThe booking shape we expect most in this area, 3.6 to 4.7 hours. Fortnightly £126 to £155, monthly £151 to £180. | £112 to £142 weekly |
| Four bedroom4.25 to 6 hours on site. Fortnightly £150 to £194, monthly £175 to £220. | £129 to £174 weekly |
| Five bedroom5.25 to 6.7 hours on site. Fortnightly £175 to £213, monthly £202 to £240. | £156 to £194 weekly |
The hours shown are for a weekly visit, and a fortnightly or monthly one runs longer. Every price includes cleaning products and equipment, and every visit is at least two and a half hours. No call-out fee, travel included, and the same prices in every area we cover.
What decides where in the band you land, room by room
What the house is made of, room by room, which is why the card below exists. Bathrooms first, because a bathroom is the slowest room in any house and ours are on chalk water. Then separate WCs, living rooms, the number of floors and staircases, a utility or a study. Pets that shed, because hair gets everywhere and vacuuming it out takes real minutes. A second kitchen, if the house has one. And the floor space itself, which a lot of the riverside flats and the newer Ebbsfleet houses have more of than their bedroom count suggests.
What never moves it is worth saying just as plainly: the town you live in, how far we travel to you, whether anyone is home, parking, and stairs. None of those touch the number. A home carrying more than one of the four gets priced individually, and we tell you that when we quote instead of guessing at it. If a house needs a proper reset before regular visits make sense, that first visit is priced as a one off deep clean and the band starts afterwards.

Two worked examples
Take a three bedroom house with one bathroom, no pets and nobody home in the day, cleaned fortnightly. That's £126, the bottom of the band, because it is a straightforward house of its size. Add an hour of ironing at £24 and the visit is £150. Ask for the fridge to be cleaned inside as a one off and that visit is £165.
Now the same house with a second bathroom and a labrador. That's £116 fortnightly, the top of the band, because it is about three quarters of an hour more work every time. Both sums come off the table above, so you can do your own before you contact us, which is the point of publishing any of it.
Which cleaning service do I need?
A regular clean keeps a home you live in on top of itself. A deep clean resets one that has slipped. An end of tenancy clean is aimed at a deposit and an inventory check. An after builders clean deals with dust that ordinary cleaning spreads rather than removes. If you're between two of them, tell us on the form and we'll say which one fits.
| Regular clean | Deep clean | End of tenancy | After builders | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | £84 to £194 a visit | Studio 135 to 5-bed 355 | Studio 155 to 5-bed 435 | Studio 150 to 5-bed 370 |
| Best for | Keeping a lived-in home in order | A home that has slipped, or one you are moving into | Moving out and getting the deposit back | The day building or refurbishment work finishes |
| How often | Weekly or fortnightly | One off, once or twice a year | Once, at the end of a tenancy | Once, at handover |
| Inside the oven | Add from £81 | Add from £81 | Included | Included |

The three one off ladders in that table are the price for a property in normal condition. Where a property has been let go it takes longer, so we price it from your photographs before we start rather than from this page. For most it's around 15 to 25 per cent more. For a few it's more than that, and either way you'll know the figure before anyone picks up a cloth.
How often should I get a cleaner?
Fortnightly suits most households. Weekly makes sense with young children, pets, shift work or a house that gets used hard. A fortnight of living leaves more to do than a week of it, so a fortnightly visit is a longer visit, about half an hour longer on a smaller home, and the extra time is what the extra money buys. Per hour it works out a shade cheaper than weekly, because the travel is spread across a longer visit. Monthly runs longer again, £151 to £180 on a three bedroom. Start fortnightly, then move it after three visits when you can see what the house actually needs.
Do I need to be at home when the cleaner comes?
No, and most of our regular customers will be at work. You can let us in, leave a key with a neighbour, or fit a key safe and give us the code. Whichever you choose, we agree it in writing before the first visit and we tell you who's coming. Plenty of people like to be there for the first clean and out for the rest, and that's normal.
Do I need to provide cleaning products?
No. Products and equipment sit inside the visit price, so the quoted price is the price. We bring cloths, a vacuum, mop and the chemicals. If you'd rather we used your own products, because of an allergy, a surface or simply a preference, leave them out and we'll use those instead at no change to what you pay.
What does a domestic cleaner not do?
We don't move heavy furniture, handle biohazards, clear pest infestations, work at height beyond a two step stool, or clean up after a flood or a fire. We won't tidy your possessions away unless you ask us to, because putting things somewhere sensible to us is how things get lost. Everything else on the checklist, we do.
What do North Kent homes need most from a clean?
North Kent sits on chalk, and the local water is hard. Hard water leaves limescale on taps, shower screens and inside kettles, and it comes back between visits whatever you do. That's where a regular clean earns its money here. We take the kitchen taps, the bathroom screen and the tiles back every single visit, so the scale never gets a grip in the first place.
The housing stock shapes the rest. Ingress Park in Greenhithe is a riverside development of around 1,500 homes at build-out, which means a lot of glass, balconies and open-plan kitchens where one dirty hob is the whole room. Ebbsfleet Garden City is still going up around Castle Hill, Springhead Park, Ashmere, Alkerden and Whitecliffe, so plenty of homes here are new, sealed and quick to clean, and ruthless about showing dust on white surfaces. Older housing gives you the opposite problem, deep skirting and painted woodwork that hold marks. The checklist changes shape between them. The rate doesn't.
There's a moment at the end of a kitchen when the draining board is dry, the glass is clear and the whole room is breathing again. That's the bit we do this for, and on a fortnightly visit you get it twice a month without lifting a cloth.
What does the 48-hour re-clean guarantee not cover?
Four things, and they're printed in the same place as the promise: pre-existing damage, permanent staining, mould, and areas we couldn't get to on the day. A re-clean puts right work we did badly. It can't undo wear that was already there.
Everything else on the agreed checklist is covered. Tell us within 48 hours and we'll come back and re-clean the affected areas free. No argument, no invoice. The 48 hours is simply how long you have to raise it, and we come back at the earliest time you can give us access.
You pay after the visit, once the work is done. Need to cancel or move a visit? Give us a clear day's notice and there's nothing to pay. If we arrive and can't get in, we charge half the visit price, and you're hearing that now rather than on the day.
Before our first clean, public liability insurance will be in place and every cleaner will have a DBS check. As soon as those certificates exist they'll be published right here, and every written quote includes our insurance certificate and DBS details before you pay anything.
What else do people ask about regular cleaning?
How much does a cleaner cost in the UK?
Rates vary by region. Bark puts Greenhithe cleaning at £17 to £23 an hour in 2026, and Checkatrade gives an average of £150 for a domestic clean in Dartford. We price by the visit instead, from £84, and an hour of ours is not the same thing as an agency hour: ours includes the products, the equipment, the insurance, the DBS check and the cover when someone is ill.
Is there a minimum booking?
Every home gets at least two and a half hours, because the kitchen and the bathroom take what they take whatever the bedroom count. That is the floor, not a booking minimum. The smallest figure on the ladder is £84 for a one bedroom home cleaned weekly, and there's no call-out fee or travel charge on top.
Can I have the same cleaner every visit?
That's what we aim for, because a cleaner who knows your home works faster and misses less. If your regular cleaner is ill or on holiday we'll tell you before the visit, and you can move the slot if you'd rather wait for your own cleaner.
Do you use eco friendly products?
Prefer eco products? Tell us on the quote form and we'll use them. Products and equipment are inside the visit price either way, so choosing them doesn't change what you pay.
How do I pay, and do I pay before the clean?
You pay after the visit, once the work is done. We'd rather earn the money first. If something on the checklist was missed, tell us within 48 hours and we'll come back and re-clean it free before the question of money comes up again.
Which areas do you cover at this price?
Greenhithe, Stone, Swanscombe, Ebbsfleet, Dartford, Northfleet and Gravesend. The prices are the same in all of them. We don't add a call-out fee, a travel charge or a postcode surcharge, and there's no shop or depot you have to visit.
