Our Step-by-Step Domestic Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Clear Quotation

When you contact us, we’ll ask a few straightforward questions about your property: size, number of rooms, flooring types and your main priorities. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote for regular or one-off cleaning. For regular clients, we also discuss preferred days, times and access arrangements.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most homes, we can assess requirements via phone, photos or a short video call. For larger or more complex properties in Putney, we may recommend an onsite visit. This helps us understand any particular issues (e.g. heavy limescale, pet hair, high-traffic areas) and confirm timings, equipment needs and any additional services like carpet cleaning.

3. Preparation and First Clean

Before the first visit, we agree a checklist, access instructions and payment method. On the day, our trained cleaners arrive at the agreed time with appropriate products and equipment. We work systematically through your home, focusing on the areas highlighted during the survey. After the clean, we can adjust the checklist based on your feedback so ongoing visits match your expectations precisely.

Transparent, Fair Pricing

We price domestic cleaning in Putney based on the size of the property, the condition, and how often you’d like us to visit. Regular visits are usually charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking time, while one-off deep cleans are quoted individually due to the extra work involved.

Our quotation will always state:

• Hourly rate or fixed price
• Minimum booking duration
• What’s included and any optional extras
• Any parking or congestion charges (where applicable)

There are no hidden fees. If we think additional time or services may be required once we see the property, we discuss this with you before proceeding.

Why Choose Professional Domestic Cleaning Instead of DIY?

Many clients in Putney are perfectly capable of cleaning their own homes, but time and consistency are the real challenges. A professional service offers several advantages:

• Professional techniques and equipment for a more thorough result
• Regular, reliable visits so cleaning doesn’t get pushed down the priority list
• Attention to detail in high-touch and easily overlooked areas
• Reduced stress, especially for busy families and professionals
• Safer handling of cleaning chemicals and delicate surfaces

With a structured checklist and experienced cleaners, we achieve more in a set time than is usually possible in an ad-hoc DIY clean.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Your home is important, and we treat it with the respect it deserves. Putney Carpet Cleaning is fully committed to operating to high professional standards:

• Public liability cover – protecting you in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury during our work.
• Goods in transit insurance – where we transport specialist equipment and products to and from your property.
• Trained cleaning teams – our staff receive practical training in correct product use, equipment handling and safe working practices.
• Fully insured operatives – for your peace of mind when we are working in your home, whether you are present or not.

We also follow clear health and safety procedures, including appropriate PPE and risk assessments for more complex cleans.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We aim to look after your home, our staff and the environment in equal measure.

Protecting your home and belongings

• Using suitable products for each surface to avoid damage
• Colour-coded cloths to minimise cross-contamination between rooms
• Careful use of equipment around furniture and delicate items
• Following your instructions about rooms or items that should not be touched

A responsible approach to products and waste

• Use of effective, low-impact cleaning products where practical
• Minimal use of harsh chemicals, reserved for specific issues like heavy limescale
• Efficient water and energy use during cleaning
• Correct disposal of used materials and packaging

If you prefer entirely eco-friendly products, we can usually accommodate this – either using your own supplies or sourcing suitable alternatives by prior arrangement.

Local Expertise in Putney

Based in the area, we know Putney’s mix of Victorian terraces, conversions and modern apartments well. We understand the particular challenges of London living – limited storage, high footfall, pets, traffic dust and shared entrances – and we structure our cleaning to tackle these specific issues.

Our local base also means we can offer more flexible scheduling, better continuity of cleaners and practical advice based on years of working in Putney homes and small businesses.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does domestic cleaning in Putney cost?

Pricing depends on the size of your property, how often you’d like us to visit, and whether you need a standard or deep clean. We usually work to an hourly rate with a sensible minimum booking time to ensure we can do a proper job. One-off deep cleans or properties that have not been cleaned for some time may require more hours. We provide a clear, written quote before any work starts, so you know exactly what to expect and can adjust the scope to suit your budget.

Can you provide same-day or urgent domestic cleaning?

Where our schedule allows, we can often arrange short-notice or urgent domestic cleaning in Putney, particularly for one-off cleans before events or after unexpected situations. Same-day availability depends on the day of the week, time of your enquiry and the size of the property. It’s always best to call us as early as possible so we can check which cleaners are nearby and what time slots are open. If we cannot offer same-day, we will usually be able to propose the earliest possible alternative.

Are you insured while working in my home?

Yes. We are fully insured to work in residential and small commercial properties. Our public liability cover protects you in case of accidental damage or injury occurring during our work. In addition, we hold goods in transit insurance for the professional equipment and materials we bring to your property. We are happy to confirm cover levels on request. Our cleaners are also trained to work carefully, follow clear procedures and report any issues immediately, which helps keep incidents extremely rare.

What exactly is included in a domestic cleaning visit?

A standard visit typically covers dusting, vacuuming, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathrooms, wiping kitchen surfaces and cupboard fronts, cleaning appliance exteriors, and emptying bins. We follow an agreed checklist tailored to your property, so key areas such as the kitchen, bathrooms and main living spaces are always prioritised. Tasks like inside ovens, inside fridges, internal windows and carpet shampooing are considered additional services and can be added on request. Before we start, we’ll confirm exactly what is included so the cleaner knows where to focus each visit.

How far in advance should I book domestic cleaning?

For regular weekly or fortnightly domestic cleaning in Putney, it’s best to book at least one to two weeks ahead to secure your preferred day and time. For one-off deep cleans or end-of-tenancy jobs, more notice gives us better flexibility, especially during busy periods such as month-end and holidays. That said, we do keep some capacity for urgent or short-notice bookings and will always try to help if we can. Once your schedule is in place, your recurring visits are reserved until you ask us to change them.
