Frequently Asked Questions

Is your cleaning safe for care home residents?

Absolutely. We use a low-pressure, chemistry-led approach that eliminates high-pressure spray risks, loud noise, and vibration. Our biocides are applied carefully with resident safety as the priority, and we provide full COSHH documentation for your records and CQC compliance.

Can you work around our care routines and activities?

Yes. We offer flexible scheduling including evenings, weekends, and off-peak times to avoid disrupting meal times, medication rounds, activities, and visiting hours. We'll coordinate with your care manager to find the optimal window.

What documentation do you provide for CQC inspections?

We supply complete RAMS (Risk Assessment Method Statement), COSHH data sheets, public liability insurance (up to £10 million), and detailed service records. All documentation is audit-ready and meets CQC compliance standards.

Do you offer multi-site contracts for care home groups?

Yes. We provide centralized invoicing, coordinated scheduling, and volume discounts for care home groups with multiple properties. We can manage portfolios across the UK with consistent quality and documentation.

How do you ensure resident safety during exterior cleaning?

We cordon off work areas, use signage, brief staff on our schedule, and avoid high-traffic times. Our low-pressure method means no spray drift into windows or outdoor seating areas. We can also restrict access to specific zones if needed.

What's included in your fixed-price quote?

Our quotes include site survey, all labor, materials, biocides, waste disposal, and full documentation (RAMS/COSHH). There are no hidden costs or call-out fees. Multi-surface packages and maintenance contracts receive additional discounts.

How often should care home exteriors be cleaned?

We recommend annual cleaning for render and brickwork, biannual gutter clearance, and 18-24 month intervals for roofs. High-traffic pathways may benefit from more frequent treatment. We'll assess your property and recommend a tailored maintenance schedule.

Can you remove algae and moss from pathways to reduce slip risks?

Yes. We specialize in restoring slip-resistant surfaces on driveways, patios, and pathways. Our treatment kills algae and moss at the root, then we remove organic matter to restore traction and reduce fall hazards for residents and visitors.

Do you have experience working in dementia care environments?

Yes. We understand the need for minimal disruption, clear communication with staff, and sensitivity to residents with cognitive impairments. We can work discreetly, avoid sudden noises, and coordinate closely with your care team.

What insurance cover do you carry?

We hold £10 million public liability insurance and full employers' liability cover. Certificates are provided with every quote and can be shared with your insurers or compliance team as needed.

Can you clean care home gardens and outdoor therapy spaces?

Absolutely. We clean patios, decking, fencing, and pathways in garden areas to restore them for resident use. Our gentle approach protects plants and landscaping while removing algae, dirt, and organic buildup.

How long does a typical care home exterior clean take?

Timescales vary by property size and scope. A standard care home (30-50 beds) typically takes 1-3 days for full exterior treatment. We'll provide a detailed schedule during the survey and can phase work to minimize impact.

Do you offer emergency cleaning for CQC inspection preparation?

Yes. We can prioritize urgent bookings for upcoming inspections. While we recommend regular maintenance, we understand inspection timelines and can mobilize quickly to address exterior presentation issues.

Will cleaning damage our render or brickwork?

No. Our low-pressure, chemistry-led method is substrate-safe and protects render, brickwork, and pointing. Unlike high-pressure washing, we don't force water into cavities or damage surface finishes. Results last longer because we treat the root cause.

Can you provide references from other care homes?

Yes. We have extensive experience with care homes, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities across the UK. We can provide anonymized case studies and, with permission, connect you with similar facilities we've served.
