6 factors that determine
your office cleaning cost.

Factor 01
Office size
The single biggest driver of cost. More sq ft = more time. A 500 sq ft office and a 3,000 sq ft office require completely different resources.
Factor 02
Cleaning frequency
Daily cleaning costs less per visit than weekly — because a daily clean takes 30 minutes where a weekly clean may take 2 hours catching up.
Factor 03
Number of staff
More people = more bins, more toilets used, more kitchen mess, more surfaces. A 50-person office needs proportionally more than a 5-person office.
Factor 04
Facilities included
An office with a full kitchen, multiple toilets, showers and a reception costs more to clean than one with just a kitchenette and shared toilet.
Factor 05
Time of cleaning
Out-of-hours cleaning (evenings, weekends) carries a premium of 15–25% vs daytime cleaning. Most businesses prefer out-of-hours to avoid disruption.
Factor 06
Location in London
Central London (EC, WC, SW1, W1) commands slightly higher rates than outer London zones due to travel time, parking costs and higher living costs for cleaners.

How to get the best value from your office cleaning contract

Most businesses in London overpay for office cleaning — not because the market rate is high, but because they're paying for a service that isn't calibrated to their actual needs. Here's how to get it right.

Match frequency to footfall, not habit

Many offices clean 5 days a week out of habit when their actual footfall only justifies 3. If your team works flexibly and the office is quiet Monday and Friday, a 3-visit weekly contract costs 40% less and keeps the space just as clean.

Separate deep cleans from regular cleans

Regular cleaning maintains the property day to day. Deep cleaning — ovens, carpet extraction, grout, inside appliances — should be scheduled quarterly as a separate service. Bundling it into your daily rate inflates your weekly cost unnecessarily.

💡 Negotiation tip

Cleaning companies price shorter contracts at a premium. If you're comfortable committing to 6 months, ask for a 6-month rate — most companies will reduce the per-visit cost by 10–15% for the certainty of a longer term.

Ask for a supervisor visit monthly

The most common complaint about office cleaning is inconsistency — a great clean on Monday, a poor one on Thursday. The solution is a monthly supervisor inspection with a written report. Any reputable cleaning company includes this. If yours doesn't offer it, ask — or switch.

⚠️ Watch out for

Some London cleaning companies quote a very low headline rate and then charge separately for consumables (bin bags, cleaning products, toilet paper). Always ask for an all-inclusive price before signing. AskMiro quotes include all products and equipment — no extras on the day.

Office cleaning vs facilities management — what's the difference?

Office cleaning covers the cleaning of your space — floors, surfaces, bathrooms, kitchen. Facilities management is broader — it may include cleaning, but also maintenance, pest control, waste management, and building services.

For most small and medium London offices, a dedicated cleaning contract is all you need. Facilities management is typically relevant for larger buildings or multi-tenant properties where multiple services need coordinating under one contract.

Frequently asked questions

How much does office cleaning cost in London per month?
A small office (up to 10 desks) cleaned 3x per week typically costs £480–£650/month. A medium office (10–30 desks) cleaned daily typically costs £1,200–£1,800/month. Larger offices are priced on a bespoke basis. AskMiro provides exact quotes within 24 hours.
Do I need a long-term contract?
No — AskMiro offers rolling monthly contracts with no minimum term. You can start, pause, or stop with one month's notice. Longer terms (3–6 months) are available at a reduced rate if you prefer that certainty.
Can cleaning be done outside office hours?
Yes — most of our clients prefer out-of-hours cleaning (early morning from 6am, or evening from 6pm) to avoid disrupting their team. This is available across all Central London locations. An out-of-hours premium of around 15–20% applies.
What's the difference between a cleaner and a cleaning company?
Hiring a freelance cleaner is cheaper per hour but carries risk — no cover if they're sick, no insurance if something is damaged, and no quality oversight. A cleaning company provides insurance, backup cover, supervisor checks, and a managed service. For an office (vs a home), a managed cleaning company is strongly recommended.
How quickly can you start?
We can typically start a new office cleaning contract within 3–5 working days of agreeing terms. For urgent requirements, call us directly on 020 8073 0621 and we'll do our best to accommodate a faster start.
