Working in York: what we plan for
York St John and the University of York drive seasonal rental turnover; the city is also one of the UK's busiest tourist destinations. Local property mix: Listed Georgian and Edwardian stock inside the city walls, with newer family housing in Fulford and Heworth. Many central properties are conservation-area.
Sensitive cleaning on period stock
Period properties need a slightly gentler touch — original sash windows, lime-plaster walls, lath-and-plaster ceilings and softwood floorboards don't behave like modern equivalents. We use lower-pressure techniques in old kitchens and bathrooms, and we know which finishes (e.g. shellac on a Georgian banister) shouldn't see modern solvents. On handyman jobs we use timber-fixings on lath-and-plaster ceilings rather than plasterboard plugs.
Deposit protection 101 in this market
In rental-heavy postcodes, deposits run through DPS, MyDeposits or TDS, and disputes hinge on the inventory check-in against the check-out. The cleanest properties at check-out are the ones where the cleaner has the original check-in inventory and works to it. Send us the inventory along with the quote — we'll print and follow it.
What's included
Hard surfaces lose colour fast under moss, algae and ingrained dirt. Jet washing — done correctly with the right nozzle, pressure and surface cleaner — restores the original finish without damaging mortar joints or stone pointing.
- Driveways, paths and patios
- Decking, walls and garden features
- Pre-treatment for moss and algae
- Optional re-sanding and sealing
