We also identified an additional 8 Domestic Cleaners who either relocated, changed ownership, were a new branch or franchise or had a change of function.

Why Domestic Cleaners?

Like us, you may be asking “Why Domestic Cleaners”? As we found from www.startups.co.uk/cleaning-business there are plenty of reasons to start up a Domestic Cleaning Business;

“A cleaning business is a popular choice for sole traders. In theory all you need is a sponge, a bottle of Flash and some good old elbow grease.

Cleaning businesses cover everything from one cleaner with a couple of domestic properties to maintain each week, to a large commercial business with thousands of staff on the books. There are domestic cleaners, office cleaners, hospital and school cleaners and then let’s not forget the other niches in this industry such as carpet, window and vehicle cleaners.

According to the Cleaning and Support Services Association (CSSA), the cleaning and support services industry is worth around £10bn, and employs approximately 820,000 people. The industry is traditionally dominated by small organisations, with around a third of all UK cleaning staff working within companies with no more than nine employees.”
