How we check: each card shows what we looked up ourselves, with the date, on Companies House and on the scheme's own register. Anything marked "per website" is what the firm says about itself. Before work starts, ask the firm for proof of its public liability insurance.

Before you hire: three quick checks

  1. Ask whether cleaners are employed by the firm or self employed, and whether they are DBS checked.
  2. Ask whether the firm has public liability insurance in case something is damaged.
  3. Agree what is included in a clean, such as ironing, oven or windows, and the hourly rate, in writing.

Choosing a cleaner in Leeds

You can hire a cleaner through a cleaning company, an agency that introduces self employed cleaners, or directly. A cleaning company that employs its staff usually handles holiday cover, insurance and vetting for you. With an agency or a private cleaner, check who is responsible if something goes wrong.

Whoever you choose, ask for references or read reviews that mention regular cleans over several months, not just one visit.

Types of house cleaning

  • Regular cleaning: weekly or fortnightly, usually charged by the hour.
  • Deep cleaning: a one off top to bottom clean, including inside cupboards, skirting boards and appliances.
  • End of tenancy cleaning: a thorough clean when you move out of a rented home, often to an agent's checklist.
  • After builders cleaning: dust and debris after a renovation.

What to agree before the first clean

  • The hourly rate and minimum hours per visit
  • Who supplies cleaning products and equipment
  • How keys are kept and returned
  • What happens if a clean is missed or something is damaged
  • How much notice either side must give to stop

Cleaning and your carpets

How to choose a cleaning company in Leeds

Start with what you need: a regular domestic cleaner, a one off deep clean or an end of tenancy clean in a student area such as Headingley or Hyde Park. Ask two or three cleaning companies for a price and what is included. Read customer reviews that mention the same cleaner over months, and ask whether the firm brings its own cleaning products. A good cleaning business will give you a clear booking process and one point of contact.

Questions people ask

Should a cleaner be DBS checked?

It is not a legal requirement for domestic cleaners, but many cleaning companies DBS check their staff. If someone will have keys to your home, it is reasonable to ask.

Do I need to provide cleaning products?

It depends on the firm. Some bring everything, others use your products and equipment. Agree this before the first clean.

What is included in a deep clean?

Usually everything in a regular clean plus areas that are often missed, such as inside cupboards and appliances, behind furniture, skirting boards, doors and light switches. Ask for a checklist.

Can I get the same cleaner each week?

Many companies try to send the same cleaner or team for regular cleans. Ask how they cover holidays and sickness.

How often should I book a cleaner?

Weekly or fortnightly suits most busy households. A deep clean once or twice a year keeps on top of areas a regular clean misses.
