Home cleaning in Islington
Islington's Georgian squares, Victorian terraces and garden flats run from Angel and Upper Street out to Canonbury and Barnsbury.
We match Islington 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 Islington
Upper Street, Angel, Canonbury, Barnsbury, Essex Road and Chapel Market: all part of Islington as far as we're concerned.
Barnsbury's Georgian squares and the flats off Upper Street both suit a same-cleaner weekly slot, with our team a message away.
Cleaning in Islington
A Georgian townhouse stacks its rooms one on top of another rather than side by side, which makes for plenty of climbing. A four-bed with two bathrooms comes out at four hours in our quote; add half an hour if the stairs slow things down.
Lower-ground garden flats in Barnsbury and Canonbury often have their own door below the front steps, apart from the flats upstairs. Point your cleaner to the right one — it's easy to ring the wrong bell on a converted house.
Shutters, panelled doors and deep sills are part of a period house's charm, and they gather dust. Flag them in your account as what matters most for each visit and they'll get their turn beside the kitchen and bathroom.
Questions from Islington
Do you clean whole Georgian houses, or only flats?
Both. A house over several floors is quoted the same way as a flat, from its bedrooms and bathrooms, and you can add time if the stairs need it.
I live near Angel and I'm out all day — does my cleaner need me there?
No. You arrange access directly with your cleaner, and a home with nobody in during the clean is perfectly ordinary. Just have the arrangement settled before your cleaner's first day.

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.
