Around Paddington and Lancaster Gate most homes were built before 1900, and more than a fifth of households live in a flat inside a converted stucco house. Complete After Builders cleans these flats once the trades leave: a 1-bed flat after a refurbishment usually takes 2 cleaners for 3 hours, £212 all in.

Paddington in numbers

Stucco terraces split into flats

In 1827 the surveyor to the Bishop of London laid out the land between Praed Street, Edgware Road and Bayswater Road as wide streets, crescents and squares either side of Westbourne Terrace and Sussex Gardens. Much of it is stucco terraced houses with mews behind, now the Bayswater conservation area, first designated in 1967. On the council tax list 73.7% of the homes with a recorded build date in the local Census area date from before 1900, and only 30 of its 5,060 properties from 2015 onwards. In Lancaster Gate ward 22.4% of households live in a flat in a converted or shared house, and 58.7% rent privately.

A flat cut out of a stucco house comes with a shared front door, a communal stair and often no lift. Builders carry dust up and down that stair for weeks, so the hall carpet and the banisters outside the flat are usually as dusty as the rooms inside. The crew cleans the flat itself; the communal stair can be added if the freeholder or managing agent agrees. Inside, tall windows, deep skirtings and ceiling roses take the most time, and getting plaster dust out of a home explains the order the crew works in. A 2-bed conversion after a refurbishment is usually 2 cleaners for 4 hours, £272 all in.

New flats in the Paddington Opportunity Area

The London Plan names Paddington an opportunity area for 1,000 new homes and 13,000 jobs. The station itself, with the Lawn and the offices on Eastbourne Terrace, is listed Grade I. A new flat needs a handover clean before the buyer or tenant gets the keys: labels and film off the glazing, silicone smears off the bath where they will come off and the inside of every kitchen unit wiped. Cement and grout residue on new floors spread across a whole tiled floor need the hard floor deep clean, an extra at £6 a m². A new 2-bed flat is often a light clean, 2 cleaners for 3 hours, £212 all in.

Parking for the crew: zone B, zone F and two-sided streets

Westminster has no visitor permits on street. Bayswater is parking zone B, where a daily trade permit costs £38.10, and the Hyde Park streets are zone F at £68.30. On a road that borders two zones, the permit has to be for the side the car is parked on, and parking on the wrong side can bring a penalty charge. The council's zone map shows which side is which, and the office checks it when it rings to confirm.

The W2 postcode reaches into Kensington and Chelsea as well, so check the council tax bill before the builder applies for any licence; for the Royal Borough see builders cleans in Kensington and Chelsea. South across Kensington Gardens is Kensington High Street, and east along Marylebone Road is Marylebone. Skip and bay suspension fees for Westminster are on the rest of Westminster.

How much is an after builders clean for a Paddington flat?

A 1-bed flat after a refurbishment is usually £212 all in and a 2-bed £272. The smallest job is 2 cleaners for 3 hours, from £212 all in; our prices shows the rest.

Will you clean the communal stairs the builders used?

Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees and it is booked as part of the job. The crew needs to know before the day so the hours allow for it.

Can you clean a flat while the builders work on the flat below?

Yes, if the flat being cleaned is finished and the trades are not using it. Dust from the shared stair will come back until the work downstairs is done, so the stair is best left until then.

Do you clean new-build flats before handover?

Yes. Developers and landlords book handover cleans flat by flat, and the walk-round with the crew happens before it leaves.
