Eco-Friendly Cleaning in London
Eco-friendly cleaning in London that still passes a check-out inspection. We clean every property with plant-based, biodegradable products, because "earth friendly" is our name, not a marketing add-on.
- Plant-based, biodegradable products on every clean, at no extra cost
- No chlorine bleach, no ammonia, no lingering chemical smells
- Safe for children, pets and allergy-sensitive households
- Same check-out standard trusted by Knight Frank
Why eco-friendly cleaning matters at move-out
Most cleaning companies reach for the strongest chemical on the shelf because it's fast. We built Earth Friendly Cleaning on a different bet: that the same standard can be hit with products you'd be happy to have around your own family.
Harsh chemicals stay behind
Chlorine bleach and ammonia don't vanish when the cleaner leaves. Residues sit on worktops, in carpets and inside ovens: exactly the surfaces the next household touches first. A property can look spotless and still be full of what was used to clean it.
Someone moves in days later
End of tenancy cleans happen right before a new tenant arrives, often with babies, pets or asthma in the household. Cleaning to check-out standard without caustic fumes means the property is genuinely ready to live in the same day, not just ready to photograph.
It all washes into the Thames
Every mop bucket in London drains toward the same rivers. Across 500+ cleans a year, swapping harsh chemicals for biodegradable products keeps a meaningful amount of phosphates and chlorine out of the waterways, without a single mark lost on an inspection.
The eco-friendly cleaning products we actually use
"Eco-friendly" gets stamped on a lot of websites. Here's specifically what's in our kit, and what will never be.
Plant-based and biodegradable, every time
Citric-acid descalers for limescale, plant-derived degreasers for ovens and hobs, pH-neutral cleaners for floors and surfaces. Everything breaks down harmlessly after it goes down the drain. Nothing we use needs a hazard symbol on the bottle.
What we refuse to use
No chlorine bleach, no ammonia, no phosphates and no heavy synthetic fragrances. If a product needs gloves, goggles and an open window to be safe, it doesn't come into your property with us.
Less product, less waste
Steam sanitises bathrooms and appliances with nothing but water, and quality microfibre lifts dirt that would otherwise take twice the spray. Concentrated refills keep single-use plastic bottles out of the job entirely.
What counts as eco-friendly cleaning
Eco-friendly, green, non-toxic, sustainable and organic get used as if they mean the same thing. They don't, and only some of them are worth anything when you are choosing a cleaner. Here is what each one means and which ones we will stand behind.
Eco-friendly or green cleaning
The broadest label, and the least regulated. Anyone can use it. In practice it should mean the products break down safely and the method avoids unnecessary chemical use. Ask what is actually in the bottle.
Non-toxic cleaning
No ingredients harmful to people or animals at the concentrations used. This is the one that matters most at move-out, because someone is living in the property days later. Everything we use is non-toxic.
Biodegradable products
The product breaks down naturally after it goes down the drain instead of persisting in the water system. Our descalers, degreasers and floor cleaners are all biodegradable.
Environmentally friendly cleaning
Usually used to mean the same thing as eco-friendly. Where it is used well, it covers the whole operation and not just the products: how much water is used, how far the team travels, how much single-use plastic the job produces.
Sustainable cleaning
A claim about the operation rather than the chemistry. Refillable containers, concentrated products, microfibre that is washed and reused rather than binned. We refill on site rather than carrying new bottles to every job.
Organic cleaning
The weakest of the terms when applied to cleaning. There is no meaningful organic certification for cleaning products in the UK the way there is for food. We do not use it to describe what we do.
Cleans we do with plant-based products
Every clean we take on uses the same products. There is no separate eco option to select and no premium to pay for choosing it.
End of tenancy cleaning
Our main work. Cleaned against the check-in inventory, from £189, with the 48-hour re-clean guarantee behind it.
One-off deep cleans
For a property you are staying in. Same products and same checklist, measured against how the property should look rather than an inventory report.
Regular cleaning
Ongoing cleaning for tenants and owners who want the property held to the same standard through the tenancy rather than only at the end of it.
Prices are the same whichever products you would prefer. Our London end of tenancy cleaning price list sets out what each property size costs, and the how it works page covers what happens between the quote and the check-out inspection.
Green cleaning that still passes check-out
The fair test of an eco clean is whether an inventory clerk can tell the difference. Ours can't: the same 48-hour re-clean guarantee sits behind every eco-friendly clean we do, and the numbers below come from real London check-outs.

Eco-friendly cleaning questions
What Londoners ask us most about cleaning green.
Yes, it's exactly what we do. Every end of tenancy clean we carry out in London uses plant-based, biodegradable products as standard. You don't pay extra for it and you don't sacrifice results: our cleans are checked against the same inventory checklist clerks mark against, and 97% of our clients get their full deposit back.
For domestic cleaning, yes. Limescale, oven grease and soap scum come down to the right product, dwell time and effort, not how harsh the formula is. Plant-based descalers and degreasers, used properly, hit the same standard. Where extra power is needed we use steam, which sanitises with nothing but water.
Plant-based, biodegradable and non-toxic products: citric-acid descalers for limescale, plant-derived degreasers for kitchens and ovens, and pH-neutral cleaners for floors and surfaces. We avoid chlorine bleach, ammonia and heavy synthetic fragrances, and we work with microfibre and steam to cut down how much product is needed in the first place.
Yes. Everything we use is non-toxic and biodegradable, and we don't leave chemical residues on worktops, floors or in carpets, the surfaces babies and pets touch most. There's no lingering chemical smell either, which matters if you're moving in the same day the property was cleaned.
Not with us. Eco-friendly products are our standard, not a premium add-on. End of tenancy cleans start from £189 and one-off deep cleans are priced the same way whichever products you'd prefer. You get the same 48-hour re-clean guarantee either way.
Yes. Ovens, hobs, extractor fans, fridges and washing machines are all cleaned with plant-based degreasers and steam rather than caustic dip-tank chemicals. It takes a little more elbow grease, but the appliance comes up to the same standard without caustic fumes in your kitchen.
Agents care about the result, not the products. Our cleans are trusted by Knight Frank and Chestertons because they pass check-out inspections, and if anything is flagged within 48 hours, we return and re-clean free of charge.
Eco-friendly describes the effect on the environment, mainly whether the product breaks down safely after use. Non-toxic describes the effect on people and animals in the property. A product can be one without being the other. Everything we use is both: plant-based and biodegradable, and safe around children and pets from the moment we finish.
Yes, and it applies to the whole operation rather than just the bottles. We use plant-based, biodegradable products on every job, refill containers on site instead of carrying new plastic to each clean, and use microfibre and steam to cut the amount of product needed. There is no separate eco option to choose, because it is the only way we work.
We describe our cleaning as eco-friendly, non-toxic and biodegradable, because those terms mean something specific. We avoid calling it organic: there is no meaningful organic certification for cleaning products in the UK the way there is for food, so the word does not tell you anything useful. On sustainability, we refill rather than replace containers and reuse microfibre rather than binning it.
