Cleaning in SO17, honestly.

Written cleaner to cleaner. This is the ground truth the lead sites have never stood on.

The homes. Terraces, split houses and infill flats share the same tight pavements across most of SO17, and most of them are built for a two-to-three-hour visit. Busy working households dominate, which means keys, notes on the side and a cleaner they never actually see. 559 sales in a year across 7,756 households: that's a steady conveyor of end-of-tenancy and new-owner deep cleans on top of the regular round.

The parking. No drives to speak of on the older streets of SO17 — every arrival starts with a slow lap. Bin day quietly reshuffles which streets work — locals know, and it shows in their diaries. Hard-water region: the squeegee-after-every-shower speech, the right descaler, the patience to let it dwell — this is where local cleaners out-clean the agencies.

The patch. Work in SO17 orbits Portswood, Highfield, St Denys, Hampton Park and Westwood Park. Around 7,756 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.
