Domestic Cleaning in Oxted

Domestic Cleaning

Care for your finishes

Vacuuming the bedroom carpet beside a bed
A few details that help protect the surfaces
FinishWhat to tell us
Wood and treated flooringPass on any care instructions for timber or recently treated floors. Routine dirt removal is different from sanding or refinishing. Mention damaged joints or lifting edges before the visit so the cleaner knows about those areas.
Stone and coated surfacesTell us the material if known, especially on kitchen worktops and bathroom fittings. Different finishes can need different care. Scrubbing harder or adding a stronger product is not automatically the answer to a difficult mark.
Wear and lasting marksShow scratches, worn coatings or permanent colour changes before the cleaning. Removing everyday dirt does not repair that damage. We do not want you expecting an old finish to look newly restored after an ordinary household visit.

Domestic Cleaning

Getting the rooms ready

Small preparations before the cleaner arrives
Before cleaningWhat helps
Clear the surfacesPut away food containers, toiletries and other items covering the areas you want cleaned. You do not need to empty the home. Clearing worktops and furniture tops lets us clean underneath your everyday belongings.
Fragile items and valuablesTell us which valuables or fragile objects must not be moved. Keep private drawers closed. We can clean the surrounding surfaces while leaving those belongings in place.
Rooms still in useTell us which rooms will be free first and which need to stay in use. A locked or occupied room cannot be cleaned until it is available, so discuss those timings before relying on the room being included.
Opening the doorLet us know who will open the door for the cleaner. If someone else is letting us in, give them the room list and any important care instructions before the appointment.

Domestic Cleaning

Extra cleaning you can request

Appliances, carpets and furniture
AdditionWhat to include in the enquiry
Oven or fridge interiorName the appliance and inside parts wanted, with its type and photographs of the dirt if helpful. Interior cleaning is separate from wiping an appliance front during ordinary kitchen cleaning and should be clear in the price.
Carpet treatmentGive the carpeted rooms, approximate dimensions and material if known when requesting a separate carpet clean. Show any marks needing attention. This is different from ordinary vacuuming of the available floor during the domestic visit.
Sofas and chairsList each furniture piece you want treated, along with the covering and marks if known. Ordinary dusting around the furniture does not clean its fabric. Upholstery treatment needs to be requested and priced as an addition.
Deeper room cleaningTell us about heavy grease, bathroom residue or dust that has built up beyond ordinary upkeep. Extra time or a deep clean may be more appropriate for those areas than fitting every additional task into a routine visit.

Domestic Cleaning

Domestic cleaning from £23 per hour

Confirming the work and price for your home
Price detailWhat to expect
Hourly priceDomestic cleaning starts from £23 per hour. It is an hourly starting amount, not a fixed whole-house price. Tell us the rooms and tasks you need, and how much cleaning is needed. We can then explain the time and price.
Your prioritiesTell us if the kitchen, bathroom or another room needs most attention. The time can be discussed around those tasks. A well-maintained spare room need not receive the same amount of work as a busy kitchen.
Added tasksDiscuss another room or extra treatment before the visit if possible. More work may need more time or a change to the earlier priorities. Check that appliance interiors and fabric treatments you want appear in the quotation.
After cleaningLook over the rooms and tasks you asked for, and raise any particular concern directly. Tell us about changed needs before the next visit, such as a newly used bedroom or a bathroom needing more attention than previously.

YOUR QUESTIONS

Questions about domestic cleaning in Oxted

Your domestic cleaning questions
QuestionAnswer
Can you clean the chair frame without treating the fabric seat?Tell us which frame surfaces need cleaning. Upholstery treatment is a separate request, so please say if you also want the seat cleaned.
Can the cleaner decide which bedside items to discard?No. Decide which items to discard before cleaning; the cleaner should not make personal disposal decisions.
Can an entrance mat need different treatment from the surrounding floor?Tell us the mat’s material and ask separately if it needs a fabric treatment rather than ordinary floor upkeep.
What if I cannot identify a surface material before cleaning?Send a photo and any care information you have before asking for a particular cleaning treatment.
Can the outside of a kitchen drawer be cleaned while it stays shut?Yes. Ask for just the outside drawer front, with the contents left inside and the drawer closed.
