At Cleaners Richmond, we provide thorough, reliable house cleaning services across Richmond and the surrounding areas. As a locally based, owner-managed cleaning company, we understand how to keep Richmond homes clean, healthy and welcoming – without disrupting your day.
Professional House Cleaning in Richmond
Our house cleaning service is designed to take the pressure off busy households. Whether you need a one-off deep clean, a regular weekly visit, or a move-in/move-out clean, our trained, background-checked cleaners work to a detailed checklist tailored to your property.
We bring all equipment and products as standard, using appropriate chemicals and methods for different surfaces. From everyday dust and grime to limescale, grease and built-up dirt, we clean carefully and methodically so nothing is rushed or missed.
Who Our House Cleaning Service Is For
Homeowners
Keep your property looking its best, protect fixtures and finishes, and free up precious time. Regular cleaning helps maintain paintwork, flooring and appliances, and makes it easier to spot maintenance issues early.
Renters
Whether you simply need help staying on top of regular chores or you are preparing for a check-out inspection, we offer professional cleaning that aligns with typical Richmond tenancy requirements, helping reduce the risk of deposit disputes.
Landlords & Letting Agents
We provide reliable pre-tenancy and end-of-tenancy house cleans to get properties guest-ready quickly. Our teams work to inventory-level standards, focusing on kitchens, bathrooms, inside cupboards and appliances, and high-touch areas.
Businesses & Home Offices
If you run a business from home or manage serviced accommodation in Richmond, we offer scheduled house cleaning to keep spaces consistently presentable for staff, clients and guests.
Students & Shared Houses
Shared accommodation can become messy fast. We offer flexible visits that focus on communal areas – kitchens, bathrooms, hallways and lounges – so everyone benefits from a clean environment without arguments over chores.

Our Step-by-Step House Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You can contact Cleaners Richmond by phone, email or our online form. We will ask a few questions about your property size, number of bathrooms, current condition, and what you would like us to focus on. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually within the same working day.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger homes, deep cleans or more complex jobs, we may recommend a short virtual survey (via photos or video call) or an onsite visit. This helps us estimate realistic timings, choose the right products and assign an appropriately sized team. It also allows you to highlight any delicate surfaces or items needing extra care.
3. Preparation Before We Arrive
We will confirm your appointment time and what to expect in writing. Ahead of the visit, we simply ask that you:
- Ensure access to all rooms being cleaned
- Move valuable or fragile items where possible, or point them out
- Secure pets if they are nervous about visitors or equipment
On the day, our professional team arrives in uniform, runs through the agreed checklist with you, and then works efficiently through your home. Before leaving, we invite you to walk round and check you are happy with the result.
Transparent House Cleaning Prices in Richmond
We prefer straightforward, transparent pricing. Most regular house cleaning in Richmond is charged at an hourly rate, with a minimum booking length that allows us to deliver a proper standard of work. Deep cleans, move-in/move-out cleans and larger homes may be priced as a fixed job once we understand the scope.
Your quote will always state:
- Hourly rate or fixed job price
- Estimated time on site and size of team
- Whether cleaning materials and equipment are included
- Any optional extras you have requested
There are no hidden charges. If, on arrival, the condition of the property is significantly different from what was described, we will discuss options and any price changes with you before starting.
Why Choose Professional House Cleaning Instead of DIY
Many Richmond households handle day-to-day tidying themselves, but there are strong reasons to bring in professional cleaners regularly or for periodic deep cleans:
- Consistency: A set schedule ensures cleaning is not pushed back when life gets busy.
- Better results: Trained cleaners work systematically, using the right products and techniques for each surface.
- Time saving: Free up evenings and weekends for family, work, or rest instead of chores.
- Health benefits: Regular high-standard cleaning can reduce dust, allergens and bacteria in the home.
- Protecting fixtures: Correct cleaning methods extend the life of floors, worktops, tiles and appliances.
By investing in professional house cleaning, you gain a cleaner home with significantly less effort and stress.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Cleaners Richmond operates to clear, accountable standards so you know your home is in safe hands.
- Fully insured: We maintain robust public liability cover for work carried out in your property.
- Goods in transit insurance: Where we transport our equipment and products to your home, they are covered appropriately, ensuring that any accidental damage linked to our tools or materials is properly managed.
- Trained teams: All cleaners receive structured training in safe product use, colour-coding of cloths, cross-contamination control, and care of different surfaces.
- Vetted staff: References and right-to-work checks are carried out for every team member.
We follow written cleaning schedules and risk assessments, and we are happy to discuss any specific requirements you may have for your Richmond property.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Looking after your home properly means more than just a quick tidy. Our approach focuses on protection and responsible working:
- Surface protection: We match products to materials – from natural stone worktops to lacquered wood – to avoid damage or dulling.
- Care with belongings: We treat your possessions as if they were our own, taking care around electronics, artwork and ornaments.
- Sensible product use: We increasingly use low-VOC and eco-friendlier products where suitable, while still prioritising hygiene.
- Waste reduction: Microfibre cloths and measured dosing systems help cut unnecessary waste and overuse of chemicals.
Our goal is a thoroughly clean home that is comfortable to live in, kinder to the environment and properly protected for the long term.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house cleaning in Richmond cost?
Pricing depends mainly on the size of your property, how often you want us to visit, and whether you need a standard clean or a deeper one-off service. Regular weekly or fortnightly cleans are usually charged at an hourly rate with a minimum visit length, while deep cleans and move-in/move-out jobs are often priced as a fixed quote. Once we know the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and have an idea of the current condition, we will provide a clear, itemised estimate so you know exactly what to expect.
Can you provide same-day or urgent house cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we do our best to help with same-day or short-notice house cleans in Richmond – for example before guests arrive, or following a last-minute change of plans. Availability will depend on existing bookings and the size of the job, so it is always best to call us as early in the day as possible. For larger or more detailed cleans, we may suggest the earliest suitable slot, ensuring we allocate enough time and staff to maintain our usual standards rather than rushing.
Are your cleaners insured while working in my home?
Yes. Cleaners Richmond is fully insured for work carried out in your property. We hold public liability insurance to cover accidental damage to your home, as well as appropriate cover for our equipment and materials while in transit. This means that, in the unlikely event something goes wrong, there is a clear process and protection in place. All team members are also trained in safe working practices to minimise risk, and we encourage clients to highlight any particularly fragile or valuable items before we begin.
What exactly is included in a house cleaning service?
Our standard house clean focuses on all the routine tasks needed to keep your home hygienic and comfortable. This typically includes dusting, vacuuming, mopping hard floors, cleaning kitchen worktops and cupboard fronts, wiping appliance exteriors, and fully cleaning bathrooms and toilets. We also empty bins and wipe high-touch areas like door handles and switches. Deep cleaning items such as inside ovens, inside fridges, internal windows and skirting board washing can be added as extras. During your enquiry, we will agree a clear checklist with you, so expectations are fully aligned.
How far in advance should I book a house clean?
For regular weekly or fortnightly slots, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially if you have a preferred day or time. This allows us to secure a consistent slot and assign a regular cleaner wherever possible. For one-off or deep cleans, more notice gives us flexibility to schedule longer appointments. That said, we will always check for last-minute availability if you need something sooner. Around busy periods such as bank holidays or the start and end of tenancies, we encourage booking earlier to avoid disappointment.
