Trusted by builders & developers
“Used CleanQuote for our last four new build handovers. The cleaner we found does rough and detail in one visit and is faster than our previous contractor. Saves us 2 days on every handover.”
“Posted a 12-unit development job. Two cleaners quoted multi-stage with proper site inductions and PPE. Picked one and finished the entire complex on schedule. Will use again.”
“Renovated a 1920s terrace. The dust and silicone everywhere were terrifying. The cleaner did three visits across the project and handed it back better than new.”
