Specialist cleaning contractor across the UK. North West-based, working nationwide.
Builder’s clean, re-clean, sparkle clean across the project lifecycle. Accredited, documented, financially stable.
Built for QSs & site managers
If you’ve managed construction handovers for any length of time, you’ve had a cleaning subcontractor let you down. The mobilisation that didn’t happen. The sparkle clean that wasn’t actually clean. The documentation that arrived three weeks after the client signed off. The contractor that went quiet, then went under, halfway through the project.
LG Cleaning was built for QSs and site managers who have learned, the hard way, what bad cleaning subcontracting costs. We work across the UK on new build, refurbishment, and major construction projects, taking on the cleaning scope across the project lifecycle and handing it back to you ready for the client to sign off.
─ The cleaning scope
Three stages, each with a different scope and a different standard. All handled under one contract, with one site contact and one set of standards running through the full lifecycle.
01
Heavy clean during and after construction. Removal of construction debris, dust, plaster splash, paint over-spray. Carried out around the live programme so the next trade can get on with their work. Scheduled to fit your sequencing rather than disrupt it.
02
Mid-stage clean to bring the building back to a presentable standard between phases or before client visits. Useful for milestone walk-throughs, marketing photography, or any point in the project where the building needs to look like progress is happening.
03
Final pre-handover clean to a finish that survives close inspection. Glass, frames, fittings, finishes, floors, sanitaryware. Done with the snagging team in mind, not against them. The building is signed off as ready for the client, not ready for one more clean.
─ How we operate
Two operational concerns that sit alongside the cleaning itself. We handle both with the discipline construction sites and main contractors expect.
Construction sites have their own protocols, and the cleaning subcontractor that doesn’t respect them is the one that causes problems. Our teams are briefed on your site’s specific requirements before they arrive on day one.
We work as a subcontractor through the main contractor on most projects, and we work that way properly. The commercial relationship runs through your standard subcontractor process.
─ Built around the credentials
We hold the accreditations that main contractors actually require from a cleaning subcontractor on serious projects: CHAS Advanced, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 (and any other ISO certifications listed in our compliance pack). Full health and safety policies and documentation are maintained as part of how the business runs, not produced ad-hoc when a project asks for them.

Procurement-ready documentation
By the time you’re at handover, your client expects clean records as much as a clean building. Cleaning sign-off forms, photographic evidence of the completed scope, certificates and method statements bundled into the standard handover documentation.
If the project requires specific reporting formats (a particular O&M structure, a client-specified handover template, anything bespoke), we work to those formats from day one rather than reformatting at the end.
Construction has the highest insolvency rate of any UK sector. The cleaning subcontractor that goes under mid-project doesn’t just create a cleaning problem. It creates a programme problem, a procurement problem, and a documentation problem all at once.
You’re not buying a service that depends on a small operator surviving the next six months. You’re subcontracting to a contractor built around the standards the work requires.
─ Questions we get asked
For most projects, we can have a team on site within two weeks of contract sign-off, sometimes faster if the programme requires it. The key is early conversation. The earlier we know about the project, the earlier we can lock in the team, brief them on the site, and align with your programme.
We quote against the project documents (drawings, programme, scope of works) rather than against a square-footage rate. Cleaning effort varies massively by project type, finish specification, and sequencing, and a flat rate doesn’t price the work honestly. The quote breaks down by stage (builder’s clean, re-clean, sparkle clean) so you can see exactly what you’re paying for at each point.
Retention is handled on whatever terms the main contract specifies. We’re used to standard JCT and NEC retention arrangements and have no issue with the typical 3 to 5 per cent held until practical completion plus the defects period. The retention arrangements are agreed at contract stage, not after the fact.
We come back and put it right. Defects identified during snagging are dealt with as part of the contract, not as additional work. If the defect is genuinely outside the agreed scope (a clean we weren’t commissioned for), we’ll be straight with you about it before any rework happens.
Yes. We can run a single contract across multiple phases of one project, or across multiple sites for the same main contractor. One named contact, consistent standards, centralised reporting. The operational structure is built for projects that scale beyond a single site.
Yes. Our operational base is in the North West but our active project work extends across the UK. The geography of the project doesn’t change the way we operate. Same accreditations, same standards, same contract structure wherever the site is.
