As part of our service provision, we’re always looking for ways we can provide a more complete service to our customers. We’ve partnered up with a north east based grounds maintenance / winter gritting company who we can thoroughly recommend.
New Business Development Manager for Yorkshire
We’re pleased to be able to welcome Kayleigh Stevens to the family as the Business Development Manager covering Yorkshire. There’s a huge opportunity to grow the business and create many excellent new positions right across the company to compliment the fantastic people we have working with us. Of course for Kayleigh to join us as the BDM in Yorkshire, it means that Rachael McCarthy has left us after three years in that role. We thank Rachael for all of her hard work and wish her every success in whatever challenge Rachael decides to tackle next. Enjoy your time with the family and once again, thank you for everything.
Thank You Agnes
After thirteen years (and five months) working in the Edwards Family, Agnes Dembo retired today. Never late or sick, Agnes has been so very loyal and hard working for us and of course, the customers Agnes has worked with over the years. Mother of seven children, Agnes joined us in 2006 being able to speak little English. Agnes actually took over her daughter’s work when Candy decided to leave and Agnes has been with us ever since. This morning, just before the end of her shift, Hazel, Andrius and Paul went to wish Agnes a very happy retirement and say thank you. You’re going to be a huge miss, thank you very much for such amazing loyalty, dedication and for looking after our customers.
A World of Automation
The cleaning industry has forever been about people. Most service industries are about the humans who work in it and it has always been that way.
Our Guiding Principle
Sometimes in life, you need a little help, a bit of guidance. Business is no different. Over the years, we’ve built something special and really enjoyed doing it. With great people working alongside, we’ve become good at what we do and we like to think we’ve been innovative with things like our bespoke auditing and management system and even the ‘Milk Round’ which means none of our plastic waste goes to landfill.
Above and beyond…
We often get to hear stories of nice things our cleaning teams do for our customers and this one came to light last week.
Mental Health
Going back a number of years now, mental illness wasn’t very well understood. When we’d receive a call from someone saying they weren’t going to make it in to work because they were feeling, “A bit down” we didn’t give them a tremendous amount of sympathy.
Organ Donation Week
All of my family now carry a donor card. Once we go we can help others to live. Far too many people are dying needlessly when they could live normal lives. What a gift to leave!
Let’s see if we can get more of our staff carrying the card. It’s easy, here’s the link

Thank you.
Twenty Years On
On the 1st September 1998 we’d sold our house, I’d quit my well-paid job and had a hire car delivered so I could at least get about.
We’re On The Move!
From Monday the 6th August 2018 we’ll be located in a lovely new office in Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne.
