Typical cleaning times — quick guide
Below are typical durations for a full, detailed clean carried out to professional standards. These are average estimates and assume a standard level of clutter and no specialist treatments.
- Studio / One-bedroom flat: 2–3 hours
- Two-bedroom house/flat: 3–5 hours
- Three-bedroom house: 5–7 hours
- Four-bedroom house: 7–10 hours (often a full day)
- Larger homes, end-of-tenancy or builders’ cleans: 10+ hours (may be scheduled over multiple visits)
Factors that commonly change these times: level of clutter, heavy soiling (for example long-unattended kitchens or bathrooms), whether oven or fridge cleaning is required, number of bathrooms, pet hair and access/parking constraints.

How we work — straightforward, predictable process
We use a consistent method so timings are predictable and results are reliable. Below is how we plan, work and finish each clean.
Before we arrive
- We assess the property (either by phone photos or a short visit) to confirm scope and give a tailored time estimate.
- You’ll receive clear information about arrival time, expected duration and any preparations that speed the job, for example clearing personal items from surfaces.
On the day
- Teams follow an agreed sequence: declutter → sanitation of high-touch areas → room-by-room deep clean → floors and final polish.
- We use eco-friendly cleaning products selected for effectiveness and safety around families and pets.
- Where requested, we prioritise high-use rooms (kitchen and bathrooms) first so you regain a usable home sooner.
Quality checks and finish
- Each clean is checked against a checklist to ensure no area is missed.
- We address any small touch-ups before completion and confirm with you that the job meets expectations.
What affects the time and price
Understanding the variables helps set expectations and avoids surprises. Typical factors that change time and cost are explained below.
- Property condition: Heavy grime, neglected bathrooms or greasy kitchens increase time significantly compared with routine upkeep.
- Size and layout: Multiple floors, separate utility rooms, conservatories or long corridors add minutes that accumulate across a visit.
- Frequency: Regular cleans are quicker because dirt and dust are controlled; the first deep clean takes longer.
- Extras: Oven interiors, fridge cleaning, inside-window cleaning, upholstery or carpet shampooing are charged and timed separately.
- Access: Narrow parking, long carry distances or restricted entry windows can extend the visit time.
