When most people think of kitchen cleaning, they imagine wiping down surfaces or giving the floor a quick mop. But in a commercial kitchen, that barely scratches the surface. Behind the scenes, it takes specialist knowledge, the right equipment, and a whole lot of attention to detail to keep things not just clean, but safe, compliant, and fully operational. At CleanKing, we know that kitchens are fast paced and high pressure. Food is flying out the door, orders are stacking up, and the last thing any team wants to think about is the grease building up behind the ovens or the stale odour coming from the drains. But those things matter, and if they’re ignored, they create problems. Whether it’s a clogged grease trap, a ventilation system struggling under layers of grime, or fridge seals harbouring bacteria, the effects of … Continue reading →

At Mole Valley, it’s important that every store feels clean, welcoming, and well cared for — and that’s exactly what our team works hard to deliver. One person who really stands out is Allison Carr. Allison is part of the cleaning team that supports multiple Mole Valley sites, and the pride she takes in her work is clear to see. Allison first started cleaning at Mole Valley’s Liskeard store in 2010. After moving to West Devon in 2017, she rejoined the CleanKing team that October, this time at the Holsworthy branch. She also supported the nearby Mole Insurance office twice a week until it closed in 2023. Today, Allison looks after two Mole Valley stores — the larger site in Holsworthy and a smaller one in Tavistock, where she’s been every Tuesday afternoon for the past three years. Both locations … Continue reading →

When Henry the Hoover just won’t cut it, it’s time to bring in the big guns. Everyone loves a Henry Hoover. That cheerful little red face, the way he trundles along loyally behind you, sucking up every bit of dust in sight like a tiny, determined cleaning warrior. And yes—we use Henry a lot. But sometimes… just sometimes, Henry isn’t enough. There are moments in industrial cleaning when a friendly little vacuum simply won’t cut it. When the job is too big, too messy, or too downright stubborn for anything less than the serious heavyweights. That’s when we roll out the big guns. Picture this… You walk into a warehouse. The floor is covered in years of hardened glue, the walls have a layer of dust thick enough to write your name in, and there’s a light fixture so high … Continue reading →

Last month we had the absolute pleasure of celebrating an incredible milestone for our amazing Office Manager, Carole! 🎉 Carole joined CleanKing 21 years ago, back when we were a small but mighty operation working out of a very tiny office in Aldershot.

She continues … Continue reading →

When it comes to cleaning jobs, few experiences challenge our skill and determination. This was, without question, one of the dirtiest jobs to date. But we rolled up our sleeves and got to work! We knew that the payoff would be worth every ounce of effort — preparing a cable company’s cladding for a fresh coat of paint to breathe new life into the company’s interior. Cables are vital to modern infrastructure, and over time, the facility responsible for storing and managing its supply had developed the expected signs of wear from its essential operations. Dust, pollution, and weather exposure had taken their toll on the cladding, leaving it layered with grime and corrosion that demanded nothing less than a full-scale operation to restore. This wasn’t just about aesthetics; the surface needed to be cleaned meticulously to ensure the paint … Continue reading →

At CleanKing, we pride ourselves on staying ahead of the curve when it comes to cleaning technology. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the SpaceVac system—a revolutionary tool that’s transforming the way we handle high-level cleaning. Cleaning high ceilings, gutters, and overhead spaces has always been a challenge. Traditionally, these tasks required ladders, scaffolding, or even cherry pickers, all of which come with risks, added time, and higher costs. For businesses looking to maintain a safe and spotless environment, these hard-to-reach areas can quickly become a source of frustration. The SpaceVac eliminates the need for working at height. With its lightweight, extendable poles and powerful suction capabilities, the SpaceVac allows our team to clean areas up to 15 meters high directly from the ground. The SpaceVac doesn’t just make cleaning easier—it makes it better. Here’s why… Safety First – By keeping … Continue reading →

So much more than just a Logo Following our recent external audit of ISO accreditation, our ISO team share why they’re genuinely excited about the positive impact ISO brings to the cleaning industry. ‘Why’ Some people see ISO as a set of boxes to tick, but it is way more than just following processes; it’s about understanding why they matter. Every member of our team member should be able to grasp their role in the big picture recognising their contribution to the business’s functioning. Awareness of the ‘why’ adds meaning to our work, rather than it being a long to-do list. Our Quality Manager is passionate about processes as she believes they ensure efficiency across the business and build quality into the delivery of our cleaning. It adds so much value, and it shows our customers that we genuinely care. … Continue reading →
