Our Step-by-Step Spring Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with the size and type of your property, its current condition and any particular priorities. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining the estimated time, team size and rate. If anything is uncertain, we move to a quick survey before confirming.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger or heavily soiled properties, we recommend a brief survey. This can be done via photos/video call or in person. It allows us to assess access, parking, the level of build-up and any delicate surfaces. We then confirm your price and cleaning plan so you know exactly what to expect on the day.
3. Preparation
Before we arrive, we’ll ask you to remove valuable items and declutter surfaces as much as possible. On the day, our trained team arrives with all equipment and eco-conscious products. We walk through the property with you, confirm priorities, protect floors where needed and then work systematically room by room until the checklist is complete.
Transparent Pricing
We price spring cleaning fairly based on:
- Property size and number of rooms
- Current condition and level of build-up
- Any add-ons such as carpet, upholstery or oven cleaning
- Access and parking considerations
Most spring cleans are charged at an agreed fixed price after assessment, so you know your costs upfront. For very large or unusual properties, we may work to an hourly rate with a minimum booking time, always discussed in advance. There are no hidden extras; any change in scope is agreed with you before we proceed.
Why Choose Professional Spring Cleaning Instead of DIY
Deep cleaning an entire property is physically demanding and time-consuming. Our clients in Kennington often call us after attempting it themselves and realising just how much work is involved. A professional spring clean offers:
- Access to commercial-grade equipment and effective yet safe products
- Trained cleaners who know where dirt and bacteria hide
- A structured, methodical approach that avoids missed areas
- Better results in less time, without the strain and frustration
- Reduced risk of damage to delicate surfaces through incorrect products
Instead of spending your weekends scrubbing, you can let an experienced team handle the heavy work while you enjoy a fresher, healthier space.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Kennington Cleaners operates to high professional standards for your peace of mind. We are fully insured with:
- Public liability cover to protect against accidental damage or injury
- Goods in transit insurance for equipment and materials we bring to your site
Our teams are thoroughly vetted, trained in safe cleaning practices and supervised to maintain consistent standards. We follow manufacturer guidance for products and equipment, and we always respect your home or workplace as if it were our own.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We take care to protect your property throughout the cleaning process. Where necessary, we use door protectors, corner guards and floor coverings, and we handle surfaces, fixtures and furnishings with appropriate products and tools.
We are also committed to a more sustainable approach. Wherever practical, we use low-toxicity, environmentally considerate products and microfibre systems that reduce the need for harsh chemicals. We avoid wastage, minimise single-use plastics where possible and optimise our routes around Kennington to reduce unnecessary travel.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does spring cleaning in Kennington cost?
Costs depend mainly on property size, condition and any add-on services you choose. As a guide, smaller flats needing a standard deep clean are at the lower end, while larger homes or heavily soiled properties require more time and a larger team. After a brief discussion and, if needed, a virtual or onsite survey, we provide a clear fixed quote so you know the total in advance. There are no surprise charges, and any changes are agreed with you before we proceed.
Can you provide same-day or urgent spring cleaning?
We can often help with short-notice or urgent bookings in Kennington, especially on weekdays, but it depends on existing schedules. If you need a same-day or next-day spring clean, contact us as early as possible with your property details and preferred times. We will check our team availability and let you know what we can offer. Where a full spring clean is not feasible at very short notice, we may suggest a focused deep clean of priority areas instead.
Are you insured while working in my property?
Yes. We are fully insured for your peace of mind. Our public liability cover protects against accidental damage or injury while we are working in your property. In addition, we hold goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials. Our cleaners are vetted, trained and follow strict procedures to minimise risk, but should anything go wrong, you are properly protected. We are happy to provide proof of cover on request before your booking is confirmed.
What exactly is included in a spring cleaning service?
A spring clean is a thorough, top-to-bottom deep clean of your property. It normally includes full dusting and wiping of surfaces, deep cleaning of kitchens and bathrooms, internal windows (where safely reachable), skirting boards, doors, radiators and a full vacuum and mop throughout. We focus on built-up grime, limescale, grease and neglected areas that routine cleaning misses. Optional extras such as oven, carpet or upholstery cleaning can be added when booked in advance so we can allocate enough time and the right equipment.
How far in advance should I book my spring clean?
For the best choice of dates and times in Kennington, we recommend booking your spring clean at least one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as early spring, pre-holiday seasons and month-end. That said, we do hold some flexibility for urgent or last-minute requests. If you have a fixed deadline, such as a move-out or special event, let us know as early as possible so we can schedule the right team size and ensure everything is completed in good time.
Do I need to be at home during the clean?
You are welcome to be present, but it is not essential. Many clients prefer to let us in at the start and return once the work is finished. We can also work with key collections or concierge arrangements commonly used in Kennington, provided everything is agreed beforehand. If you are away, we will follow the pre-agreed checklist and can send photos or a brief update afterwards if you wish. Either way, we treat your property and keys with utmost care and confidentiality.
