Hello,


I pay 8 pounds per hour, non agency.

And i realise by yours messages that our nice women cleaner is not so expensive! at the beginning, i found her expensive because in France, the prices are lower for house cleaners (around 6 pounds by non-agency).

I sometimes receive to my letter box offers for private women cleaning and the prices are around 8 ?/H

How much you pay might also depend on much you like your cleaner, how good a job s/he does. Hubby and I think our cleaner is tops, and we even gave her a holiday bonus. Maybe it also depends on how trashed your house is... I'd personally feel a bit mean giving our cleaner less than ?10/hr. Anyone who's ever seen our house on a Monday (cleaner comes on Tues), would probably think ?10/hr is a bargain!


If you're going through a small agency, how would they 'absorb' the cost for vat etc, just curious? Also, you might want to find out if the rise in cost will benefit the employees or if it simply reflects overall rising cost of living in London.

I had the best cleaner in the world a few years ago at 10/hour direct to her. It was expensive but she was totally efficient so I viewed it as money well spent. Unfort, I moved across London and lost her. We now have agency girls who I have had to train completely - 8.50 an hour. I wldn't pay more for their work as they are very slow indeed and so end up being paid much more than a good cleaner at a tenner an hour would be.


I'd be quite happy with 10/hour - and I give what I consider good bonuses at Christmas etc (100 pounds - is that good?)if she is efficient. Not otherwise.

Yup, that can be a reason agencies cost more! :-(

Hello there,

Im currently living in a one bedroom flat on Derwent Grove, and im looking for someone to come and clean my flat every other week.

I honestly wouldn't expect it to be more than two hours as the flat is pretty small but im happy to pay 3 hours to get someone trustworthy:)

Would you be able to pass on my details? c_devenish@hotmail.com

Many Thanks

Catherine

    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
