Essential upkeep
The dependable part of the brief
A good recurring brief separates the important room tasks from work that can be selected occasionally.
A limited detail request
- A defined skirting request
- Switch surfaces you have listed
- Chosen accessible internal glazing
- Other reachable work as agreed
Review optional work whenever the household expands its list. Additional requests need a discussion about the time available.
New Malden / household planning
One shared kitchen, one clear instruction
Different people using a New Malden kitchen can have different ideas about what matters first. Agree a single household brief so the cleaner does not receive competing requests.
A common list makes the task order clear without treating personal rooms as automatic inclusions.
Confirm who may alter the room list before the visit. Each occupant can prepare their own belongings while the agreed shared spaces remain the focus.
Separate the cooking surfaces everyone uses from individual storage or belongings. The cleaning brief concerns agreed accessible areas, not a reorganisation of the household.
Make room exclusions part of the shared instruction. A closed bedroom should not become accessible merely because another resident has asked for general cleaning.
Visit frequency
Frequency starts with household use
The relevant question is how the home is used during the gap. Frequency alone does not establish a suitable duration.
| Planning point | Weekly | Fortnightly |
|---|---|---|
| Best suited for | Busy everyday spaces | A longer gap with planned priorities |
| Core focus | Follow the established core work | Review the workload created by the gap |
| Priority planning | Define a useful repeatable scope | Be explicit about competing priorities |
| Visit scope | Discuss coverage before the appointment | A separate scope discussion is needed |
Give the first visit its own brief
Tell the team what the first cleaner will actually find. Later visits can be reviewed once the initial priorities are understood.
Maintenance should reflect room use
Use later visits to maintain a clear baseline; changes in occupancy or priorities should be communicated before arrival.
Separate services
Separate services, clearly identified
Keep extraction, treatment and difficult-access work outside the routine unless separately agreed. Heavy lifting and restoration need their own planning.
Carpet extraction service
Keep the distinction clear between routine vacuuming and a carpet extraction booking.
Inside the oven
For internal oven cleaning, follow the dedicated service link and confirm the additional scope.
Separate mould assessment
Mould concerns belong in a dedicated discussion; ordinary surface upkeep is not a treatment commitment.
Outside glazing
Outside glazing needs separate access planning and is not automatically part of domestic room care.
After building work
Building residue needs a post-construction brief rather than being described as ordinary household dust.
A more intensive reset
A home needing an intensive reset may require another defined brief rather than a larger regular checklist.
Price guides
What the starting guides mean
A price discussion needs the rooms and current condition as well as the preferred frequency.
Regular domestic cleaning£20/ hourStarting rate · minimum visit applies
First / one-off domestic visit£90 fromCondition and agreed priorities matter
| Service | Price | Main factors |
|---|---|---|
| Regular domestic cleaning | From £20/hour | Address, available time, frequency, room size and equipment |
| First / one-off domestic visit | From £90 | Present upkeep, room coverage and priority level |
| Specialist / intensive scope | Confirm a dedicated quotation | Different equipment, high areas or specialist treatment |
More than a starting figure
Give details of the available rooms and workload, then check minimum time, supplies and access when discussing the final charge.
Room coverage
What the room list can contain
These room notes explain accessible maintenance tasks. The cleaner follows the confirmed brief, not an unlimited checklist.
Kitchen
Accessible kitchen care
A useful kitchen list identifies worktops, sink and splashback separately from cupboard faces and the outside of appliances.
Leave the listed preparation surfaces reachable, and raise internal oven work separately if you need it.
Bathroom
Bathroom surfaces and fittings
The bathroom list may cover taps, sanitaryware and shower surfaces together with mirrors and tiles that can be reached safely.
Identify vulnerable fittings and existing surface damage. These conditions need to be distinguished from removable dirt.
Living spaces
Living-space upkeep
An agreed living room can receive reachable-surface care and dusting, followed by vacuuming and suitable treatment of the floor.
Put personal documents away and make fragile items secure; name anything that should stay untouched.
Sleeping rooms
Care in the included bedrooms
Keep sleeping-space care specific to reachable surfaces, dusting and the included floor areas; appropriate vacuuming can be part of it.
The household should remove medication from accessible surfaces and explain any no-entry instruction.
Household arrangements
Make the visit fit the people at home
Use the examples to explain practical household needs.
A workday away from home
An absent household still needs a clear brief, including the used rooms and agreed way into the property.
Family spaces in use
A useful family brief identifies the busiest areas and what can be cleared before the cleaner arrives.
Animals at home
Agree the animal’s location before setting the room sequence, with clear instructions about closed doors.
An occupied workspace
Name the desk or room in use and a quiet period; arrange a different starting area if necessary.
A lived-in rental
Explain who approves work in the rental and avoid combining regular cleaning with an unconfirmed move-out requirement.
A coordinated household
Choose one person to coordinate access and changes, so the cleaner is not given competing instructions.
Routine planner
Put your room priorities into words
A short room list is easier to discuss than an open-ended request. Your selections provide context, without reserving a cleaner.
Material guidance
Care starts with the material
A mixed room can require several cleaning approaches; identify its materials and existing damage at the outset.
Stone surfaces
Point out natural stone early so the proposed method can be checked against it.
Finished timber
Point out the wooden areas in the scope and explain any known restrictions on their care.
Lacquered furniture
Give the team the known guidance for lacquered furniture instead of assuming one product suits it.
Steel exteriors
Check the approach for the stainless surface and specify that the request concerns the agreed outside areas.
Painted areas
Existing paint damage should be recorded in the discussion, not mistaken for removable dirt.

Booking questions
New Malden: questions about the cleaning brief
How do we avoid competing instructions for our kitchen?
Settle one list for the shared room and one person authorised to change it. Personal bedrooms still need explicit inclusion rather than being inferred from a communal booking.
What should each occupant put away before shared-space care?
Prepare the agreed surfaces and floors yourself, then explain pets, access and any excluded space before the appointment.
What are the published guides for a shared-home enquiry?
For shared-home planning, the published regular guide starts at £20/hour; the first or one-off domestic guide begins at £90. Agree the minimum and actual inclusions with Alesta.
How can we choose between weekly and fortnightly support?
Describe what happens between appointments and the upkeep you can manage yourself. The team can then discuss the interval without assuming every household needs the same one.
Who should tell the team about changed communal priorities?
Ask for the adjustment directly and check the available time if more work is involved. The on-page board does not amend a booking.
Could the first shared-home visit need an initial catch-up?
It may differ from later care because the initial tasks have built up. The quoted scope should acknowledge that difference.
Should occupants agree supply arrangements in advance?
Confirm what is supplied for this appointment and share the relevant finish instructions. Do not assume all products in the house are suitable.
Can a private workroom remain unavailable during shared cleaning?
Identify the office and its access restriction before the day. The confirmed room list should show whether another time is practical.
Does shared floor maintenance cover carpet extraction?
No. A routine vacuuming task and an extraction service are different work; request the latter through the carpet-cleaning service.
What remains to agree once our household list is settled?
A selected interval is not a reserved cleaner. Discuss your postcode, rooms and access with the team and confirm the actual appointment.
New Malden / local enquiry
A household enquiry starts with the postcode
New Malden bookings need the full postcode and the intended rooms. A regular slot requires confirmation of your address and the available schedule, together with supplies and the proposed task list.
