Postcode coverage
We work across most CR postcodes, including CR0, CR2, CR3, CR4, CR5, CR7, CR8, and CR9, with selected availability in bordering SE, SW and BR postcodes. Availability can vary by service and time of day.

If you’re unsure about postcode coverage, send your postcode when you request a quote and we’ll confirm the best slot.
Availability by area
We plan routes daily to minimise travel time and keep standards high. Availability by area is influenced by:
- Service type (e.g., end of tenancy vs regular cleaning)
- Property size and access
- Parking or loading restrictions
- Preferred day/time (weekday, weekend, evening)
Typical lead times by district:
- Central and CR0 corridors: Often the shortest lead times
- South and CR2/CR8: Good weekday and some evening availability
- North and CR7/CR4: Good weekday availability; evenings book quickly
- Outer CR3/CR5: More limited; best to enquire early
These are general patterns and not guarantees. We’ll always offer the soonest suitable slot based on your brief.
Same-day slots by zone
Need help today? Same-day slots by zone are released as teams complete earlier jobs or when dispatch capacity opens up. Same-day is most likely in:
- CR0, CR2, CR7, CR8: Highest chance during weekdays
- CR5, CR3: Possible for shorter visits or urgent one-off cleans
If it’s urgent, call 020 3835 5129 and we’ll advise on current availability. You can also check times via How it works and book the next suitable appointment.
Weekend and evening coverage
We understand that cleaning around work and family life matters. We offer weekend and evening coverage on selected services. These slots are popular and may carry slightly longer lead times. Tell us your ideal window when you enquire, and we’ll match you to the earliest available team.
Residential and commercial districts served
- Residential: Regular housekeeping, deep cleans, oven and appliance cleaning, carpets, upholstery, windows, and move-in/move-out across most CR districts.
- Commercial: Offices, retail units, restaurants, gyms, schools, communal areas, and warehouses in Croydon centre and surrounding business corridors. For larger contracts, we can extend beyond the CR boundary subject to schedule and scope.
Explore what we offer on our services overview and include the service name when requesting availability.
Out-of-area surcharge policy
For addresses outside our standard radius or where parking/loading is restricted, a fair travel or access surcharge may apply. We’ll flag this in writing before you confirm. Factors that can trigger a surcharge:
- Extended travel time from our nearest team
- Paid parking, pay-and-display, or congestion/toll zones
- Multiple site visits or late-night access windows
We aim to be transparent. Share your full address, any parking notes, and preferred timings so we can provide an accurate, no-obligation estimate.

Access and parking
Clear access helps us keep to time and standards. Please advise:
- Parking options (permit, driveway, pay-and-display)
- Building entry instructions, concierge details, or fob access
- Any loading restrictions or lift bookings required
If parking is not available, we may need to adjust timing or apply a reasonable parking fee at cost. We’ll confirm before the visit.
What affects lead times by district
Lead times by district can change day-to-day. Common factors include:
- Peak periods (end/beginning of month, pre-holiday weeks)
- Larger team allocations for deep cleans or after-builders
- Weather or traffic conditions affecting travel time
- Special equipment bookings (e.g., carpet extractors)
We’ll always propose the earliest compatible appointment and provide alternatives if your first choice isn’t available.
For property managers and businesses
Multi-site or block management across several districts? We can coordinate staggered schedules and shared access instructions. Provide a site list with:
- Postcodes and on-site contacts
- Scope per site (e.g., communal area cleaning, offices, retail)
- Preferred visit frequency and hours
Our team will map routes for efficiency and consistency, then confirm start dates and a mobilisation plan.
Out-of-hours and key holding
For eligible regular clients, we can discuss out-of-hours service or key holding where appropriate. We follow clear chain-of-custody steps and can adapt to building security processes. Ask during your booking and we’ll outline options.
How we plan routes
To maintain reliability across our districts served, we:
- Group bookings by zone to reduce travel time
- Assign specialists where specific equipment is needed
- Build in sensible arrival windows rather than exact times
- Keep you updated if traffic or prior jobs affect timing
You’ll receive confirmation with your date, arrival window, and any prep notes. See How it works for a step-by-step overview.

If you’re on the boundary or in a neighbouring postcode, we may still be able to help—especially for longer bookings or commercial work. Tell us:
- Full address and postcode
- Service(s) required and any deadlines
- Access, parking, and building notes
We’ll confirm options, any out-of-area surcharge, and next available dates.
