One Off Deep Cleaning

Toilet & Hand Basin Before & After Cleaning

A Deep Clean is invariably a "One off" Spring Cleaning type experience.
An intensive ceiling to floor cleaning will make your home sparkle and enhance the atmosphere.

Whether it's to help sell, rent or just to give it that top to bottom once over for your own peace of mind, a deep clean is a thorough clean.

After builders have done their changes and there is dust everywhere, it's time for a deep clean.

In preperation for that Special Occasion, it's time for a deep clean

What a Deep Clean includes

This service includes windows, shutters, screens, tracks, ceiling fans, tops of wardrobes and cupboards, and other places that are not usually cleaned. Under and behind furniture and appliances that are not usually moved. Plus all that you get with a regular janitorial clean but much more in depth.

Window Cleaning

No, that's not me! I am not a lover of heights!

I do "fight grime" & clean windows in regular homes and flats though but only those that I can take out or get to without risking my overweight body. I may even get up the ladder to clean them.
I do not include windows as part of my janitorial cleaning service as to clean "windows" as I understand it means cleaning not only the glass but the insect screens, shutters (trissim) and tracks as well.

To do a half decent job takes a long time so for me it is a seperate service.

I do include the odd window however for my regulars but out of a courtesy and then its only a cursory clean of the glass

Office Cleaning

That's how I keep my home office!!

The most important thing to remember regarding a commercial office is that a number of people touch the same objects many times a day therefore sanitising of these objects is paramount:

Door handles

Light switches

Toilets

Trash cans

Phones

Computer and electronic equipment

Empty trash bins and replace the bags. Vacuum carpetsand/or wash wood and tiled floors, sanitize door handles. Wash/wipe/polish desks, Wipe/dust window sills, shelves, wipe picture frames, spot clean doors, frames, chairs, tidy desks, check window blinds, check for dirty fingerprints.
If the office has a kitchen then washing of the utensils and organizing them when dry makes the kitchen inviting.

If you are a predominantly IT Office with a number of computers you need to consider proper cleaning of the workstations:

Screen

Mouse

Keyboard

I DON'T WANT TO FRIGHTEN YOU BUT …
How many germs does your keyboard conceal?
Bugs and viruses are festering on your computer.
A typical keyboard is infected with an astonishing 3,295 germs per square inch, Including Listeria and salmonella linger on the keys, mouse and phone for quite a time. Statistically, that makes your workstation dirtier than the average toilet!!. If you share equipment the problem intensifies. Illnesses which can be transmitted via the computer keyboard include skin diseases, rashes, eczema, fungal infections, diphtheria, thrush, herpes, gastroenteritis, gum disorders, pneumonia, hepatitis and blood poisoning. Food poisoning bugs such as e.coli, staphylococcus aureus, coliforms and enterobacteria are prevalent on dirty keyboards, putting you at high risk of becoming ill. 70% of dust is made from dead human skin cells and at work, they're just as likely to be your co-workers as your own.
If you left a sandwich on your desk, what would it look like after 2 weeks?
What about the breadcrumbs that fell into your keyboard 6 months ago?
Only 41% of men wash their hands after going to the toilet.
Who else answered your phone today?
Computers (desktop & laptop) Keyboards, Mouses, Fax machines, Telephones, Photocopiers, Printers and Scanners are all at risk.

Appliance Cleaning (Dry Steam)

The most effective and hygenic method of cleaning is with

NATURAL DRY STEAM

If you have never experienced a power clean, you should.
Seeing is believing.

Give your kitchen a full deep-level steam clean to remove bacteria and built up grime.High temperature dry steam cleaning sanitises surfaces, killing the bacteria that may have built up over time. It is possible to steam clean: worktops, walltiles (especially those behind the Hob), cupboards, ovens, fridges, freezers, sink units, Microwaves, hobs, grills etc.
Perfect for Kashering the kichen before Pesach

See Pesach Cleaning Service Below

Upholstery Cleaning

Rugs, Chairs, Mattresses, Small Carpets

Using natural steam - The most effective method of steam cleaning kills harmful bacteria and micro organisms, whilst the area in question is cleansed, sterilised and sanitised. All bacteria, viruses, yeast and mildew are killed on immediate contact with about 250 degrees of dry steam heat.

Steam kills bacteria, viruses, yeast and mildew
Kills dust mites, fleas, etc
Removes pet odours

CLEAN, STERILE & SANITISED

The Cleaning Process:

First the carpet is pre-vacuumed to ensure that loose dirt and grime has been removed. Spot stain remover or dry foam cleaner sprayed or scrubbed on stained areas. This helps to break down dirt and organic material that has attached itself to the fibers The steam process is started and repeated numerous times to loosen and clean the areas. A further vacuum is done to remove the dirt and excess moisture. Carpets and upholstery usually are pretty dry within 20 minutes unless a heavily stained or dirty area is soaked with cleaner and vacuumed numerous times.

Please note that steam cleaning is about the safest and most naural method of cleaning just about anything.

Leather lounge suites
Popular choice because they are luxurious, durable, and do not readily absorb stains. Leather furniture cleaning needs special care but is somewhat more involved than the usual steam cleaning process of non leather upholstery.

Mattress Cleaning

Mattress Cleaning and Sanitizing with Pure natural Steam and a strong Suction vac which gets rid of all the dust mites, fungal and any harmful debris found in the mattress.

CLEAN, STERILE & SANITISED

Dust mites live on dead skin and require warm damp conditions to survive. Dust mites are often present in bedding. Many people are allergic to Dust Mite excrement.

Regular steam cleaning of your mattresses ensures minimal dust mite populations.

Power Cleaning

Pressure Washer Cleaning

A great way to keep the outside of your home looking good. With high power water pressure assisted with or without designed cleaners the dirt just drops off.

Pesach Cleaning

THE OBLIGATION TO ERADICATE EDIBLE CHOMETZ

The Jews went out from Egypt in Springtime. Pesach cleaning according to Halachic Law is not such a daunting task as modern religious home owners make of it. But as Pesach coincides with Springtime most feel that it is a golden opportunity for a deep cleaning experience.
Cleaning should not be a dreaded backbreaking exhausting experience with days of frantic cleaning which only results in the loss of enjoyment of the Chug itself.
Modern homes are big and harbor many nooks and crevasses where chometz can reside. The traditional artificial light night searching for chometz can take time.

This is where I can help as I have powerful machines that can vacuum efficiently and get into most of these crevasses.
Don't be obsessed as chometz that a human wouldn't deliberately eat or is smaller than 30 microns, it is not considered chometz. Unless you can pick the crumbs up with your fingers and put them on your tongue. Chometz that a dog wouldn't eat is not considered Chometz. For example all chometz that has been contaminated with detergent and is therefore poisonous is no longer chometz.

In any event I move your heavy appliances and furniture wherever possible and wash all the floors with a safe scented sanitizing detergent.
Wheat, rye, barley, oats, all grain and grain derivatives, food, drinks and cosmetic products including soap made from grain or containing grain are subject to the laws of chometz and must be eradicated.
You don't however have to sit with a needle scraping the corners of your bedroom floors.
Cooking, eating utensils, the ingredients to cook with and cutlery; the clothes you will wear and the bed linen have to be kosher for Pesach. Particular care has to be taken in the kitchen.
I can steam clean your hob, oven, fridge and microwave. You cannot clean the rubber seal around your refrigerator door like I can.
Be sure to change the sheets and blanket covers as close to Passover as possible.
I can steam clean your mattresses
Kids toys, books can be easily checked and cleaned for chometz.
The actual Passover furniture as well as the kitchen table and chairs must be clean as does the couch and cushions.
Again I can help do this properly by vacuuming, steam cleaning and/or dry foam cleaning the upholstery.
Door handles, light switches and telephones must be perfectly clean.
I can even clean your silver kiddush cup and silver candlesticks I can steam clean your marble counters, stainless steel sinks, counter tops and the tiles behind the countertops
A porcelain sink cannot be koshered. You must clean the sink thoroughly and then put in a raised plastic insert.
Ventilator grilles must be vacuumed
Carpets and rugs should be cleaned.
With most homes having computers the keyboard needs to be cleaned and de chometzed.
I CAN CLEAN IT ALL
Remember the actual broom and vacuum collection bag must also be cleaned.

Don't dread the holiday.
Do not clean so much that you're exhausted for the Passover Seder.
LET ME DO IT PROFESSIONALLY
