I used this company for an end of tenancy clean, and they have been horrendous! On the day of booking, we planned it so that they arrived as the removal guys finished, and I drove over to the new place in Kent, leaving my pregnant wife sat in the empty flat to meet them for what should have been a few hours (my sister in law was going to pick her up). After waiting for two hours, they sent a text to say they would be 90 minutes late, and even then they arrived later.


They then said that they would have to basically sleep in the flat overnight as they would not have time to clean it that day. Not surprisingly I phoned the office to say that it wasn't an option, and after saying they could do the next day, was then told that they would not possibly be able to do that, and that Sunday would be the next free day. I did say that was unacceptable, but they clearly didn't feel horrified enough by their shocking service, so instead of apologising and telling us what they could do for us, they seemed more interested in going through their phone records to see if they could catch us out at all. I eventually asked what they were going to do for us, and managed finally to get them to do a carpet clean of the hallway.


If that had been my business, I would have been bending over backwards to do anything I could to make up for messing us around, but no joy. The only reason I am now sitting on a floor in an empty flat on a Sunday is that we had no other option at such short notice, and it's only because of a brilliant and reasonable ex landlord, that we have been able to come back a few days after we should have handed the keys back.


For such an essential service that is so restricted by time available, I have been actually disgusted by this company. Looking at the feedback online, about half of it is negative. They either do a brilliant job, or a crap job. I still have to see what I'm left with after today, so I have no guarantees that this is over yet!

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.
