Within 800 metres of the middle of Highgate ward, 270 buildings are listed, six of them Grade I. Complete After Builders cleans period houses and flats here once the trades have left: a 4-bed house after a refurbishment usually takes 3 cleaners for 4 hours, £392 all in.

Highgate in numbers

Builders cleans in listed Highgate houses

Highgate was Haringey's first conservation area, designated on 21 December 1967, and the Highgate Village, Highgate Hill and Hornsey Lane, and Holly Lodge Estate areas all reach within the same 800 metres. The 270 listed entries include Cromwell House and the Highpoint II flats at Grade I and 24 buildings at Grade II*. Works to a listed building need listed building consent, and often planning permission too, so builders usually work around panelling, shutters, old floors and original plaster that must stay.

That sets the pace of the clean. The crew dusts mouldings with soft brushes before any cloth touches them, uses a barely damp cloth on painted panelling and tries a hidden spot before using a product on old marble, stone or timber. Paint spots on old glass come off by hand where they will, and the crew tells you which ones will not. Allow more time than for a modern house of the same size; the office works it out from your photos.

One N6 postcode, four councils

The N6 district is shared by Haringey, Camden, Islington and Barnet, so the council on your bill decides the parking, skip and waste rules. On the Haringey side, the Highgate zone (HGA) and the Highgate Station zones are controlled only 10am to 12 noon on weekdays at £4.10 an hour, while Priory Gardens runs Monday to Saturday 8am to 6.30pm. A crew can usually park in the zone outside the controlled hours; for the two hours in the middle, a resident's visitor permit or a driveway does the job.

If you live on the Camden side of the hill, tell the office when it rings; the crew and the price are the same, but the permit you buy will be a Camden one. For the Haringey licence and waste rules in full, see after builders cleaning in Haringey.

Scaffolding, basements and tall rooms

Bigger Highgate houses often gain a loft room or a basement. Haringey's policy DM18 allows a new basement only with a Basement Impact Assessment, and asks for construction noise, vibration and dust to be kept to a minimum; it does not stop the dust settling over the whole house afterwards, which is what construction dust cleaning deals with. Scaffolding on the road costs £560 for each 3 months, plus a £109.20 inspection fee, a £109.20 deposit handling fee and a refundable deposit of £109.20 for every square metre of highway enclosed.

Once the scaffold is down, the crew starts at the top. Its ladders reach about 2 metres, which covers most ceilings and the tops of doors and shelves; on a tall stairwell or a double-height room we say from the photos which ledges are out of reach. After a full renovation with a new basement, a 4-bed house usually needs 4 cleaners for 5 hours: £632 all in, or £30 per cleaner-hour plus £32 for equipment and detergents. Dust from a dig gets into soft furnishings too; sofas and mattresses after the works can be cleaned on the same visit.

Flats in converted houses and 1930s blocks

At the 2021 Census 65.6% of Highgate ward households lived in flats, split between purpose-built blocks (34.1%) and converted or shared houses (28.1%). The Valuation Office count shows 26.4% of local homes with a recorded build date from between the wars and 20.2% from 1945 to 1972, and blocks of that age often have small lifts; tell us if the lift has to be booked for the crew's kit.

A 2-bed flat after a refurbishment is usually 2 cleaners for 4 hours, £272 all in. The neighbouring pages cover the rest of the hill: Hampstead across the Heath, Kentish Town to the south and East Finchley to the north. Every home size is priced on the full price list.

Questions people ask

Anything else? Ring 07418 351088.

How much is an after builders clean for a Highgate house?

A 4-bed after a refurbishment is usually 3 cleaners for 4 hours, £392 all in, and 4 cleaners for 5 hours, £632, after a full renovation. A listed interior can take longer; the office confirms the crew and hours from your photos.

Can the crew clean high ceilings and stairwells?

The crew carries ladders up to about 2 metres and cleans everything it can reach safely. Above that, we tell you in advance which ledges and fittings are out of reach.

Does it matter whether my N6 address is Haringey or Camden?

Not for the clean itself. It matters for the visitor permit you buy for the crew and for the builder's skip and waste, which follow the council's rules.

Do you move furniture back into place after the works?

No. The crew cleans around furniture and does not move personal belongings, food or crockery, so have the rooms clear where you want every surface done.
