What Is Excluded from Standard Domestic Cleaning?
To keep things clear and transparent, the following are not included as standard in a regular domestic clean:
- External window cleaning at height
- Chimney, gutter or roof cleaning
- Major decluttering, rubbish removal or clearance
- Deep appliance cleaning (inside ovens, fridges and freezers)
- Wall washing or removal of mould and damp

Many of these can be arranged as additional, pre-booked services such as professional carpet cleaning or deep appliance cleaning. We will always discuss any extras with you before confirming the booking so you know exactly what is included.
Our Domestic Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Everything starts with a simple enquiry. You can call, email or use our online form to tell us about your property, the number of rooms and the type of cleaning you require. We will ask a few straightforward questions about flooring, pets and access. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote with a breakdown of tasks and estimated time. There are no hidden fees and we confirm all costs before you decide to go ahead.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most regular domestic cleans in Putney, a brief virtual survey is sufficient. This might be a phone consultation or photos of key rooms so we can assess the work properly. For larger homes or specialist work such as deep carpet cleaning, we may recommend an onsite visit. This helps us understand access, parking and any delicate items that need extra care, and ensures we assign the right number of trained, professional cleaners to your job.
3. Preparation & Cleaning Day
Before the first visit, we agree dates, times and access arrangements. On the day, our team arrives in uniform, on time, with all necessary equipment and products. We walk through your priorities, confirm any specific instructions, and then get to work. High-touch areas are tackled first, followed by each room in a structured sequence. At the end we invite you to check the work, raise any concerns and confirm you are satisfied. For regular clients, we keep notes on preferences so future visits are consistent.
Transparent Pricing for Domestic Cleaning in Putney
We price our domestic cleaning fairly and simply, based primarily on the time required, property size and the level of cleaning needed. Regular weekly or fortnightly cleans are usually charged at an hourly rate, with a minimum visit length to ensure we can work properly and safely.
One-off and deep cleaning services are typically quoted as a fixed price after we understand the scope, as they require more time and detail. All quotes are provided in writing, with VAT and any parking or congestion charges clearly stated if applicable. We do not charge extra for standard cleaning products and equipment – these are included in the price unless you specifically request the use of your own materials.
Why Choose Professional Domestic Cleaning Over DIY?
Cleaning your own home is possible, but many Putney residents find that professional cleaning offers important advantages:
- Consistency – scheduled visits mean your home is cleaned thoroughly, even when you are busy.
- Higher standards – our experienced cleaners follow proven checklists and techniques that cover areas often missed.
- Time savings – you regain hours each week for work, family, or rest, rather than weekend cleaning marathons.
- Professional equipment – commercial-grade vacuums and products provide a deeper, longer-lasting clean.
- Hygiene – regular, methodical cleaning helps reduce allergens, dust and germs.
As local professionals, we also understand typical London housing issues – from traffic dust and soot on window sills to high-traffic hallways and compact bathrooms – and adapt our approach accordingly.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Inviting a cleaning company into your home requires trust. Putney Carpet Cleaners is a fully documented, fully insured local business operating to professional standards.
- Public liability cover – protecting you and your property in the unlikely event of accidental damage or incidents during cleaning.
- Goods in transit insurance – for jobs where we transport specialist equipment and materials to your property, ensuring they are properly insured en route.
- Trained cleaning teams – our cleaners are background-checked, supervised and trained in safe product use, handling of equipment and correct cleaning methods.
We follow industry best practice on chemical handling, equipment safety and lone working. You can expect uniformed staff, clear communication and respectful behaviour in your home at all times.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every home as if it were our own. This means paying close attention to the protection of your belongings and the environmental impact of our work.
- Using colour-coded cloths and mops to reduce the risk of cross-contamination between bathrooms and kitchens.
- Taking care around delicate items, ornaments and electronics, dusting by hand rather than rushing.
- Using eco-conscious and low-odour products wherever suitable, particularly in homes with children or pets.
- Choosing concentrated solutions and refillable containers to reduce plastic and chemical waste.
- Ventilating rooms properly during and after cleaning for safer air quality.
If you have allergies, sensitivities or strong preferences regarding products, we are happy to discuss alternatives and can often work with products you provide, while still maintaining professional standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does domestic cleaning in Putney cost?
Our pricing depends on the size of your property, how often you’d like us to visit and the condition of your home at the start. Regular weekly or fortnightly cleans are typically charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking time, while one-off or deep cleans are usually quoted as a fixed price. Once we understand your needs, we provide a clear written quote showing the hourly rate, estimated duration and any additional services such as carpet cleaning. There are no hidden extras and we confirm all costs before you commit.
Do you offer same-day or urgent domestic cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we do our best to accommodate same-day or short-notice cleaning in Putney, especially for urgent situations like last-minute guests or move-outs. Availability depends on existing bookings and the size of the job, so it’s always best to call us as early as possible. For large or complex cleans, we may recommend the earliest practical date rather than promising a rushed visit. Even when responding quickly, we maintain the same professional standards, clear pricing and careful approach to your home.
Are your cleaners insured while working in my home?
Yes. We carry comprehensive public liability insurance to protect you and your property in the unlikely event of accidental damage or injury during a clean. In addition, our specialist equipment is covered by goods in transit insurance when transported to and from your address. All cleaners are trained in safe working practices and the correct use of products and machinery. If anything does go wrong, we deal with it promptly and transparently, keeping you informed at every stage and resolving issues with minimal disruption.
What’s included in a standard domestic cleaning visit?
A standard visit focuses on keeping your home hygienic and presentable. We usually include dusting and wiping surfaces, vacuuming carpets and rugs, mopping hard floors, cleaning bathrooms (toilets, sinks, baths, showers and tiles), and cleaning kitchen worktops, hobs, cupboard fronts and sinks. Internal glass, mirrors and bin emptying are also covered. We work to a checklist adapted to your property so important areas are not missed. Tasks such as inside ovens, fridges, external windows or carpet shampooing are classed as extras, which we are happy to quote for separately.
How far in advance should I book my domestic cleaning?
For regular domestic cleaning in Putney, we recommend booking at least a week in advance so we can offer your preferred days and times. Popular morning and weekend slots tend to fill quickly. For one-off deep cleans or end of tenancy work, a little more notice is ideal, as these require extra planning and often longer time on site. That said, we will always try to help with shorter notice where our schedule allows, and we keep a waiting list for clients who are flexible on times.
Can I have the same cleaner each visit?
Wherever possible, we aim to provide the same cleaner or small team for each regular visit. This helps build trust and ensures they become familiar with your home, preferences and priorities. Occasionally, holidays or illness mean we may need to send an alternative cleaner, but we always let you know in advance when practical. All team members are trained, professional and follow the same methods and checklists, so standards remain consistent even when cover is required.
