We can't recommend Idris enough. He cleans my elderly mother's house regularly and is very competent and reliable. With him both my mother and her home are in excellent hands. He is thorough with his attention to cleaning, and kind, friendly and respectful to her. Any little extras asked of him he accomodates what a smile and a willingness to do a good job. When Idris comes to clean he adds some sparkle through his positive can-do attitude, as well as leaves the place sparkling clean.

New to using HK. Only 3 cleans with first cleaner n/a due to travel time. Very pleased with Caren's debut clean. Only advised which rooms to clean and she understood - you clean and dust wipe surfaces, even noticed dust on ceiling hanging glass light shades, lift items to dust shelves - attention to detail. Very good attitude to doing what is a job and flexible to accommodate the increased time I required from 2 - 3hrs.

I am incredibly impressed with the cleaning services provided by Anam. She was punctual and very reliable, which immediately set a positive tone. Her professionalism is top-notch, and it was clear from the start that she takes her work seriously. What truly sets Anam apart is her meticulous attention to detail. She didn’t just do a surface clean; she really got into the nitty-gritty areas that often get overlooked. I highly recommend Anam for anyone seeking thorough, reliable, and professional cleaning services. You won’t be disappointed!
