Temple Fortune is big family houses — substantial Edwardian and inter-war stock along Bridge Lane and the roads running up to Hampstead Garden Suburb, most of them with more floor area than the bedroom count suggests. Four bedrooms here is commonly a larger job than four bedrooms in a flat, which is exactly why a per-hour quote is the wrong shape for this area.

What’s different about cleaning in Temple Fortune
Houses that are bigger than their bedroom count
Utility rooms, second kitchens, box rooms, cellars and loft conversions are normal here and rarely counted as bedrooms. Tell us what is actually in the house when you book — if it needs pricing above the standard band we would rather say so beforehand than send a team that runs out of day.
Garden Suburb and the conservation rules
Part of the area sits inside or against the Hampstead Garden Suburb conservation area, where original metal-framed windows, leaded lights and Arts and Crafts joinery are common and are usually listed in the inventory. They take care rather than chemicals, and nothing abrasive goes near leaded glass.
Long family tenancies
Tenancies here run for years rather than months, which changes what the check-out finds: less obvious mess, far more built-up limescale, oven carbon and grease on the tops of units. Those are the slow, unglamorous parts of the job and they are the ones that decide a deposit.
Regular cleaning in Temple Fortune — weekly and fortnightly
Temple Fortune households stay for years, and a regular cleaner here is usually a long arrangement rather than a trial. £26 an hour weekly, £28 fortnightly, two-hour minimum, the same named cleaner every visit, and no contract and no exit fee — if it stops working you tell us and it stops. Every cleaner is employed by us on PAYE, right-to-work verified and DBS checked, and we carry £5,000,000 cover.
| Housekeeping | Rate | Minimum |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly | £26/hr | 2 hours |
| Fortnightly | £28/hr | 3 hours |
| One-off | £30/hr | 2 hours |
A typical visit: studio 2 hours · one bed 2½ · two bed 3 · three bed 3½ · four bed 4½. Ten per cent off the first clean, and no contract or exit fee — if it stops working you tell us and it stops. £26 an hour is the rate with your own products and equipment — your hoover, your surfaces, your choice of product, which matters on marble, natural stone and hand-painted joinery. If you would rather we brought everything we can, and it is charged as an extra shown on your quote.
We quote the hours off the rooms, not the bedrooms
A Garden Suburb four-bedroom often has two receptions, a study, a dining room, a big landing and three bathrooms. Quoted on bedrooms that is four hours; quoted on what is actually there it is five and a half. We would rather tell you the real number at the start than agree to four and quietly stop doing the study, which is what happens when the hours are wrong and nobody says.
Ten-year households, and the slow list
When people stay put for a decade the job stops being about mess and becomes about the slow list: the oven, the inside of the windows, the tops of the units, the skirting. None of it is urgent and all of it is what makes a house feel tired. We schedule them across the year, tell you when each is due, and you decide — it is not a surprise on an invoice.
We do not work Shabbat
Nor Yom Tov. Tell us the dates once and they stay in the calendar, and the standing slot moves rather than being missed. Friday morning slots finishing well before candle-lighting are limited, and in winter they go first.
Office and commercial cleaning in Temple Fortune
The parade on Finchley Road and Temple Fortune Lane is accountants, solicitors, dental and medical practices, opticians, estate agents and a run of salons — small premises with one or two washrooms, a staff kitchen and a lot of glass at the front, which is what drives the price rather than the floor area.
From £30 an hour, quoted as a fixed monthly figure once we have walked the space, on a rolling monthly contract with thirty days’ notice on either side. No twelve-month tie-in. Every cleaner is directly employed by us, right-to-work verified and DBS checked, and signs an NDA as standard. We carry £5,000,000 public liability cover and the certificate goes out with the quotation rather than on request. The site visit is free.
We quote once, after walking the space, and put the figure in writing; it does not move because a bin was fuller than usual. Out of hours is the default — before eight or after six — and for a practice with a first appointment at eight that means we are in and gone before seven. We do not work Shabbat.
Oven cleaning in Temple Fortune
On an end of tenancy or deep clean the oven is included free — racks, trays, door glass, the seal and the fan housing. On its own it is £69 for a single, £89 for a double and £129 for a range, and we take the door glass apart rather than wiping between the panes and calling it done.
These are family kitchens that get used every day, mostly double ovens and a fair number of ranges, and the carbon in a ten-year family oven is genuinely hard rather than greasy — racks and trays go in the dip tank, the cavity is done by hand, and the door glass comes apart in panes. A double is £89, a range £129 and a single £69. On a deep clean it costs nothing, and a deep clean is what most Temple Fortune bookings actually are: nobody is moving, the house simply needs taking back to a standard that weekly cleaning does not reach.
