At a glance

Before choosing a cleaning date

What rate is published for the service?
Use £29 per hour as the published starting guide only; the condition and proposed cleaning time still need agreement.
Which surfaces can form the brief?
Only the areas agreed for cleaning are covered. Name surfaces, fittings and adjoining spaces that the renovation affected.
Can cleaning follow straight after painting?
Wait for dusty activities to end and the rooms to be released. Follow the new products’ instructions on cleaning readiness.
How are stubborn fitting marks handled?
Treatment depends on what the residue is attached to. Complete removal cannot be guaranteed.
What about materials still in the room?
Construction waste is not automatically carried away during cleaning. Arrange its separate scope and keep the proposed surfaces accessible.
How are new kitchen surfaces considered?
Yes, subject to surface readiness and agreed tasks. Name worktops, coated panels and visible installation residue.
What if the work was only repainting?
Yes. Describe the dust and accessible detail, then confirm that paint is ready for cleaning under its instructions.
How is timing discussed?
The duration follows the condition of the agreed areas. Detailed fittings and awkward routes can change the practical workload.
How is glass after building work handled?
Name the glass faces, frames and height. A window-clean request is not a guarantee of residue removal.
What preparation helps the finishing clean?
Clear the carrying route and identify materials requiring collection rather than leaving them inside the cleaning brief.

Different project briefs

Hammersmith: choose the relevant project detail

Rooms released in an apartment

Keep the entrance and room connections on the inspection list.

A refitted kitchen

A kitchen brief should separate ordinary dust from bonded installation marks.

A renovated bathroom

Explain which new materials permit cleaning and which still need time.

Several rooms completed together

A larger renovation benefits from material notes for each affected space.

An agent-managed handover

Give the keyholder details alongside the rooms released after works.

Commercial scope, subject to review

Commercial suitability must be checked; describe premises and coordination needs before assuming availability.

Beyond the work zone

A protected room still deserves a check

A small horizontal lip can hold visible post-work deposits.

Check where the last tools were carried out.

Protected furniture does not mean every nearby surface stayed untouched. Examine exposed ledges and passages before ruling a room out.

Surface-aware cleaning means lifting deposits with appropriate equipment rather than treating every room as an identical wipe-down.

Raise the possibility of further dusty tasks before confirming a visit; the cleaning schedule should reflect the real project sequence.

A scoped quote

The starting rate needs a surface list

From £29/ hour

Cleaning materials and equipment are included; confirm the current rate with the proposed work.

The amount of reachable detail matters alongside room count. Separate requests such as windows or waste can alter the overall plan.

Glass after renovation

Describe the window task precisely

Specify the glazing you mean, including height and whether the request concerns its inside, outside or frame.

Construction marks need a separate assessment of suitable treatment; a glazing clean is not an unlimited removal guarantee.

Explain where the work stopped and where deposits remain; the two boundaries may not be identical.

Hammersmith / the specific room brief

Flooring work leaves more than a floor to clean

Skirting tops and door edges can hold dust after boards have been fitted.

This Hammersmith planning example centres on flat renovation after flooring work. Skirting tops and door edges can hold dust after boards have been fitted. The useful inspection route follows the refloored flat and its entry passage, with attention to engineered timber edges and skirting.

Use the flooring supplier’s guidance to distinguish suitable care from guesswork. Keep any care notes for engineered timber available when discussing the visible marks.

Describe how equipment reaches the flat from the entrance. Check perimeter detail before rugs and furniture cover it.

The dust route

A room list needs the spaces between rooms

The drawing is schematic. Only accessible areas agreed for the visit form the cleaning brief.

HORIZONTAL

Ledges & surfaces

Point out high and low resting surfaces that remain accessible after the project.

PERIMETER

Frames & edges

Inspect the line where floors meet skirting and where door frames meet the wall.

DETAIL

Fittings & fixtures

Include external detail on agreed fixtures without assuming specialist treatment.

CONNECTIONS

Floors & adjoining rooms

Track deposits into connecting spaces and ask for those areas to be priced explicitly.

Different issues / different scope

Describe what remains, not just how it looks

Two separate jobs

Two enquiries may be needed after the build

Ordinary post-work cleaning

The finishing work concerns the agreed reachable detail: surface deposits, fittings and appropriate floor care.

A useful distinction

A completed installation still needs a readiness check

Builder stage

Close the dusty work

  • Check that the installer has completed the relevant area.
  • Keep construction storage away from the agreed room access.
  • Do not schedule contact cleaning on finishes still curing.

Cleaning stage

Release the room detail

  • Confirm the route into each area being quoted.
  • Flag existing damage so it is not mistaken for dirt.
  • Check the scoped work before preparing the next stage.

Room-by-room brief

Make the room list useful for a quotation

Kitchen

A new worktop and surrounding cabinets need their materials noted, with cleaning limited to the agreed accessible detail.

Bathroom

Name the tiles and fittings affected by the works; glass or difficult residue needs clear discussion.

Bedrooms

Check reachable frames and floors, and mention any dust inside storage rather than assuming it is included.

Living areas

A clear living-area brief distinguishes construction deposits from unrelated household cleaning.

Protect the new finish

A new finish is not a blank surface

Cleaner visually checking the finish of a newly fitted surface

Illustrative surface review.

Start with the surface, then identify the deposit.

Separate loose dust from bonded material. Safe treatment depends on both the deposit and the finish, and specialist work may need another quote.

Paint & sealants

Wet or uncured finishes need time under the relevant manufacturer guidance.

Stone, timber & tiles

Timber, natural stone and tiles should not share an assumed treatment.

Metal, glass & cabinetry

Glass and coated metal require their own residue assessment.

Homeowners

List the rooms being returned to use and who can explain the newly installed surfaces.

Landlords & property managers

Provide a clear point of contact for the post-work scope and keep any unrelated inspection duties separate.

Builders & contractors

Ask Alesta whether the specific project can be accommodated, including any site rules or coordination requirements.

Questions about planning the Hammersmith clean

Which details matter after flat renovation after flooring work?

Name the completed work and explain the intended next use. This gives the cleaning conversation a practical purpose while leaving room to assess condition and surface limitations. Skirting tops and door edges can hold dust after boards have been fitted.

Who should arrange entry for the finishing visit?

Access means the whole journey to the agreed rooms, including any shared entrance or internal obstruction. Give the contact details needed to arrange entry; no separate local office is implied. Describe how equipment reaches the flat from the entrance.

Can fitting marks on engineered timber be treated?

The aim is appropriate cleaning, not refinishing. Identify the material, explain when it was installed and flag anything the supplier says should not be used. Use the flooring supplier’s guidance to distinguish suitable care from guesswork.

Can the approach route be included in the quote?

The brief can cross the building-work boundary. That should follow the condition observed, not an automatic assumption about the entire property. Here, inspect the refloored flat and its entry passage.

What should I confirm before accepting a rate?

Published pricing begins from £29 per hour. Cleaning supplies and equipment are included, but the property scope and any extras still require agreement.

How should a staged renovation be planned?

A later contractor attendance may affect the proposed room priorities. Raise it before agreeing the timing and avoid assuming repeat cleaning is included.

Should waste collection happen separately?

Do not leave bulky packaging inside an undefined cleaning request. Describe the amount and access for removal, then agree the surface work independently.

What information is needed for glazing work?

Describe what the carpet or glazing needs rather than adding a broad “extras” request. Suitability, availability and any residue limitations should be discussed.

What affects the time required at this property?

The time depends on more than room count. Allow the discussion to cover fittings and access as well as any product-specific drying requirements. Check perimeter detail before rugs and furniture cover it.

What if residue cannot be removed safely?

A mark can be an installation issue rather than removable residue. Cleaning should not be used to disguise that distinction.
