Home cleaning in Forest Gate
Forest Gate has some of Newham's handsomest Victorian streets, especially in the Woodgrange conservation area near Wanstead Flats.
We match Forest Gate households with a vetted, self-employed local cleaner for a regular weekly or fortnightly clean — the same person each visit, with our team on hand whenever you need us.

Where we clean in Forest Gate
Woodgrange Road, Woodgrange Estate, Wanstead Flats, Romford Road, Forest Lane and Upton Lane: all part of Forest Gate as far as we're concerned.
The Woodgrange Estate's big Victorian houses often run to four bedrooms and a basement. The hours follow the floors.
Cleaning in Forest Gate
Tiled halls and original wooden floors are common in the bigger houses. The products are yours, so set out the floor soap or polish you normally use.
A dog walked on Wanstead Flats brings plenty back with it. Mention pets when you book and we'll find a cleaner who's easy with dogs; one that could be a risk needs shutting away during the visit.
A four-bed with two bathrooms comes out at four hours in our quote, which fits a fortnightly visit to a big house that's kept in order between cleans.
Questions from Forest Gate
Our house has a basement — how do we count it?
If someone sleeps down there, count it as a bedroom. If it's a playroom, utility or den, it isn't in the suggested time, so allow it half an hour more.
Can we start fortnightly and go weekly once the house is sorted?
Yes — just ask and we'll change it, and you keep the same cleaner.

Common questions
How much does a clean cost?
You pay an hourly rate, and your price depends on the size of your home and how often you'd like a clean. Our instant-quote tool gives you an exact price in about a minute, with no card and no account needed. There are no sign-up fees and no hidden extras.
How are your cleaners vetted?
Every cleaner is ID-verified, DBS-checked, reference-checked and interviewed before their first booking. We only accept people with previous professional cleaning experience.
Can I have the same cleaner every time?
Yes, that's the default. We match you with a local cleaner on your first visit, and they stay with you unless you tell us otherwise. Consistency is the whole point.
Do I need to provide the cleaning products?
Yes, and the equipment too. Your cleaner uses your own products, vacuum, mop and cloths, so you stay in control of what's used in your home and you know what's being used in your home has only been used in your home.
Do I need to be home?
No, plenty of customers aren't. You arrange access directly with your cleaner. Poppins never holds keys or stores entry or alarm codes.
What if I need to cancel a clean?
Skip any visit with 48 hours' notice and there's no fee. With less notice, 50% of the clean is charged, and 100% within 24 hours. Either way it goes to your cleaner for the time they'd set aside.
