Tailoring Our Services To Your Needs
Term Break Deep Cleans
We provide term break school deep cleaning so everything is spotless when you come back after the break. Where daily cleaning is good for ongoing surface-level services, deep cleaning schools outside of term time gives us space to completely sanitise each room, ready for your return.
If you need a breakdown of how we implement deep cleaning in schools, get in touch today.
Day Janitors
Our day janitors and maintenance support staff are available through either an 'on call' mobile area basis, or can be recruited for site-based roles.
Our janitors maintain high standards across all facilities and deal with various maintenance requirements. Support is also available for particularly challenging tasks if necessary and depending on your specific needs.
Carpeting and Flooring
Our carpet and hard-floor cleaning for schools includes the use of extraction machines for built-up dirt, bonnet machines to improve presentation of larger areas, and steam cleaners for extra bacterial control. We remove chewing gum, perform strip and seals, and use Diamond Brite strip and polish along with carpet pile extraction. There are multiple options to choose from in order to keep your flooring safe and presentable throughout the year.
Waste Management
High Level
High-level school cleaning services are hazardous and require specialist access equipment. We provide affordable specialist cleaning in the South-East.
Windows
Our mobile and on-site teams are highly trained in internal and external glazing for school window cleaning.
We work on particularly hard to reach windows and areas requiring cladding and glazing cleaning. Often we may require 'reach and wash' apparatus, pressure washers and access equipment to work at height, but this won't disrupt or interfere with the goings-on around your school.
Maintenance
Our school maintenance team covers the South-East, including training and managing on-site maintenance personnel.
Services cover running water, electrical maintenance, general repair to fixtures and fittings, as well as painting, filling and more. Our partner, Grey-Water Drainage Solutions handles maintenance issues and upkeep in educational establishments.
Guttering and Drainage
Our partner, Grey-Water Drainage Solutions have decades of experience identifying the cause of blocked drains in schools, fixing them without damaging drains and surroundings. In doing so, they prevent subsequent maintenance at any later date.
Grey-Water use pressure pumps to navigate hard-to-reach passages including sewers, all internal and high-level drains such as guttering.
Exterior
Storm Drains
Storm drains prevent rain from accumulating on flat surfaces by safely channeling it into main drainage routes.
Storm drains on school premises often go without maintenance and can routinely become blocked with mud, silt, sticks, and various other debris.
Maintaining storm drains around school premises can reduce the amount of debris build-up outside, ensuring none of it makes its way into the property.

School cleaning FAQs

What is the key to excellent school cleaning?
For us, it comes down to a combination of factors that work together:
- Skilled, motivated managers who deliver the results your school expects
- Loyal, excellent staff who stay with us
- Recognition and reward for our team's hard work
- Routine quality assessments in your school
- A careful approach to health and safety
- Regular contact with every client
Why is it important to choose a competent school cleaning provider?
Hygiene and cleanliness matter hugely in schools. With so many pupils and staff coming and going every day, shared spaces such as classrooms, toilets and dining areas can quickly become breeding grounds for bacteria and viruses.
A competent provider brings vetted staff, agreed standards and regular checks. That keeps those spaces safe, helps reduce sickness absence and gives parents and staff confidence in your school.
