Domestic Cleaning in Hackney
Hackney life moves fast. Long commutes, busy jobs and kids’ clubs leave little room for chores, so the cleaning keeps getting pushed to Sunday, and Sunday keeps getting lost. Dust gathers on the sash windows, limescale builds up in the shower, and the kitchen never quite feels finished.
We’ll take it off your list. A trusted, vetted cleaner comes to your home on the same day and at the same time each week or fortnight, whether you live in a Victorian terrace in Stoke Newington, a converted flat in Clapton or a new-build near Shoreditch. Because it’s the same person every visit, they soon learn how you like things done, and we’ve been looking after homes across the borough since 1998.

Cleaning a Hackney Home Is Its Own Job
Few London boroughs mix housing like Hackney. A single street can run from a Victorian terrace to a 1960s estate block, with a warehouse conversion or a glass-fronted new-build round the corner. Each one gets dirty in its own way, and we clean it to suit.
Victorian terraces and conversions
Much of Clapton, Stoke Newington and the streets around London Fields is Victorian, often split into flats with steep shared stairs. Sash runners, cornicing, picture rails and tall skirting all hold dust, and the hard local water clouds taps and shower screens within days. We descale on every visit and take care with original features.
Estate and tower block flats
A large share of Hackney lives in council and housing association blocks, from Homerton to Woodberry Down. These flats have compact kitchens, bathrooms with no windows where condensation turns to mould, and lifts that aren’t always working. Our cleaners bring everything with them, carry it up when they have to and leave nothing behind.
Warehouse lofts and new-builds
In Shoreditch, Hackney Wick and along the Regent’s Canal, homes come with exposed brick, polished concrete, engineered wood and floor-to-ceiling glass. These surfaces show every streak and smear. We use the right products for each one and fit around concierge desks and building access rules.
Busy family households
From the large houses of Stamford Hill to two-bed flats with a buggy in the hall, Hackney households are busy, and the cleaning is the first thing to slip. A fixed weekly or fortnightly slot with the same cleaner means the kitchen, bathrooms and floors get done, however full the week is.
How Booking a Cleaner Works
Booking takes a minute online or one phone call, and from then on the same cleaner comes to your home on the same day each week or fortnight.

Cleaning Company or Cash-in-Hand Cleaner?
A cash-in-hand cleaner can look cheaper per hour, but the homeowner usually carries the risk if something is broken, the cleaner doesn’t turn up, or keys go missing.

Feedback from Our London Customers
★★★★★ Trustpilot 5.0 from 452 reviews · Google 4.7 from 361 reviews
“We bought a new house and Anyclean did the end of tenancy and carpet cleaning the day before we moved in.
The previous owners left the place messy, food stuff caked into crevices, an oven I didn’t want to open and mould around the bathrooms. We moved in and Anyclean have done a fantastic job. It feels like we can make this our home and a usable oven. For us it’s more than just a clean, it’s a fresh start. Thank you.”

“The job was last saturday and the Any Clean guy, Dimitar, arrived puntucally at 0930 and worked flat out for four hours without a break to get all the job done – it was clearing, cleaning and jet washing our outdoor areas and windows and one low roof after construction work next door made it a real mess. The job was excellent. Would recommend”

“Anyclean have been cleaning my windows and carpets for more than 15 years. They have always provided an excellent service – extremely friendly and utterly professional. Today, Alex cleaned my windows. They are absolutely sparkling. Truly, I have never seen such immaculate work. He really took his time, and the results are outstanding. I could not recommend the company and Alex more highly! Just brilliant!”

“Anyclean offered a very good end of tenancy cleaning that left the house looking like brand new. My landlord was so impressed, she refunded me my entire caution fee. Highly recommend”

“Book a EOT cleaning services. Deya was very professional and helpful for the booking. Very accommodating with time scheduling and payments options. The two ladies who came to clean were extremely accurate and quick. The house was shining and I had my deposit back. Highly recommend and I will definitely call them for my other flat. Never been happier with a cleaning service.”
“I continue to be very happy with the service provided by Anyclean: my previous cleaner left and my new cleaner Elvira speaks good English, and has cleaned my house, impeccably well. Thank you so much!”

“Booking and communication was easy and efficient, taking care of invoice ahead of time was great. I booked deep cleaning. They did an amazing job and I am greatful for the job they did. Well done”

“Anyclean sent Alex today to do our kitchen/dining sloping glass roof cleaning on the outside and, for the first time, on the inside too. We had been worried about the inside drips and dirt landing on the wood floor etc. but a combination of our room preparation and his very professional cleaning care all went much better than we dared hope.”

Cleaning Homes Across Hackney
There's a lot to do in Hackney on a free afternoon. You could be at Broadway Market, walking round Clissold Park or having a long lunch on Chatsworth Road. Hoovering the stairs, scrubbing limescale off the taps and wiping down the hob for the third time this week don't belong on that list, but they keep finding their way onto it.
A regular cleaner changes that. The same person comes on the same day each week or fortnight, brings everything they need and works through the jobs you'd rather not think about. They'll handle the dusting, the bathroom, the kitchen surfaces and the floors, plus the corners that only get done when guests are coming. You come home to a clean house, and the evenings and weekends are yours again.
We've been cleaning homes in Hackney since 1998, so we know its homes well, from the steep stairs of a Victorian conversion to the concierge desk of a canal-side block. Every cleaner is vetted and insured, and if yours is ever away, we'll send cover who already has your notes. All it takes to set up is one phone call.

Cleaning in Stoke NewingtonDomestic Cleaning in Hackney: Your Questions Answered
Plain answers to the questions Hackney households ask before booking a regular cleaner.
How long should my regular clean be?
Most one- and two-bedroom flats need two to three hours a visit, and larger family houses usually need three to four. We'll suggest a length when you book, based on the number of rooms, bathrooms and how often we come. After the first few visits your cleaner will tell you honestly whether the time is right, and you can make it longer or shorter whenever you like.
Should I book a deep clean before regular visits start?
If your home hasn't been professionally cleaned for a while, it's usually worth it. A one-off deep clean deals with built-up limescale, grease behind the cooker and dust on high ledges. After that, a weekly or fortnightly visit keeps everything at that level, rather than spending your first few regular visits catching up. If your home is already in good shape, we'll start straight away with regular cleans.
Can I change what gets cleaned from week to week?
Of course. Leave a note, send a message to the office or tell your cleaner on the day. If guests are coming, you might want the spare room and the oven done instead of the usual. Your cleaner works through your priorities first, so the time you pay for goes where you need it most.
My flat is in a Victorian conversion with no lift. Is that a problem?
Not at all. Most of Clapton, Stoke Newington and the streets around London Fields are made up of conversions like yours, and our cleaners deal with steep shared stairs every day. They bring compact equipment and carry it up themselves, so you don't need to store a hoover in a small flat. We also know the hard water here, so taps, showers and kettles are descaled as part of every visit.
Will my cleaner have trouble parking on my street?
Nearly all of Hackney is covered by controlled parking zones, and some run into the evening and at weekends. Many of our cleaners come by bus, Overground or bike. For anyone who drives, we'll ask whether you can provide a visitor permit when you book, and agree the arrangement in advance so a parking ticket never ends up on your bill.
I live in a new-build by the canal with a concierge. How does access work?
It's straightforward. We register your cleaner with the concierge or building management before the first visit, and keys can be left at the desk, in a key safe or with us. Our cleaners are used to the glass, stone worktops and engineered floors common in the newer blocks around the Regent's Canal, Hackney Wick and Woodberry Down, and use products that won't streak or mark them.
