Cleaning in AL8, honestly.
Written cleaner to cleaner. This is the ground truth the lead sites have never stood on.
The homes. Cottages and period houses around the middle of Welwyn Garden City, modern estates on the edge, villages beyond. The village jobs beyond the edge pay for the driving in loyalty: once you're their cleaner, you're their cleaner for good. Only around 166 homes changed hands last year — fewer one-off cleans, but the regulars here don't leave, and neither does their cleaner.
The parking. Park on the drive on the estates; allow a few minutes near the centre of Welwyn Garden City and that's the whole plan. The centre of Welwyn Garden City needs timing; everywhere else needs nothing but a handbrake. Hard water rules the region's bathrooms: build descaler dwell time into every first clean and the difference sells itself.
The patch. Work in AL8 orbits Welwyn Garden City, Handside, Digswell Park, Sherrardspark and Stanborough. Around 5,740 households live here, and the ones who hire a cleaner tend to keep them for years. That's not a lead list — that's a working round, every week, forever.
