Recommending my lovely cleaner


Recommended Posts

Hi all, If you are looking for a cleaner, I can highly recommend Beverly who has been cleaning my home. She is thorough, reliable, no job too small ( she helped me fix a curtain rail, dangerously dangling.. with me wobbling up a ladder )As well as the usual house cleaning, she offered to clean my oven and fridge. She is a real miracle worker!She says she cleans my home as though it were her own. I thoroughly recommend Beverley on 07956 925 119. You'll be lucky to have her. Alexa.

I contacted Beverly and had a text conversation. All went well, and she was agreeable to the 2.5hrs a week I was asking for, until I asked for references then she closed me down very suddenly stating that her minimum clean was 3hourly and she couldn't meet me. Disappointing and frustrating.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
