Most Sevenoaks regulars first call us in the week they realise the weekend has stopped being a weekend. The kettle is furred, the shower screen has clouded over again, and the proper clean keeps getting bumped to a Saturday that never comes. We keep one cleaner on your home, the same person back each visit, all the kit carried in with them, the kitchen and bathroom done properly rather than wiped over. Monster Cleaning Ltd has cleaned homes across Kent and south-east London since 2014. Regular domestic cleaning in Sevenoaks runs from £22 per cleaner per hour, weekly or fortnightly, with no VAT on top and no call-out charge. Ring 0333 555 2076 and we price it on the phone in a couple of minutes.
Last updated April 2026. Covering TN13 and the wider Sevenoaks district, from the High Street and St John’s out through Riverhead, Greatness, Kippington and Wildernesse to the villages around Knole.
Regular home cleaning in Sevenoaks from £22 an hour, the same vetted cleaner kept on your home, all the kit brought, with a re-clean guarantee. That is the short version. The rest is detail and honest pricing.
Regular, or a one-off: pick the right one
The word “cleaner” hides two quite different services, and working out which one you actually need can save you money before price even comes up. Different jobs, different rates.
- Regular domestic cleaning
- One cleaner kept on your home, back every week or fortnight, charged per cleaner per hour. Ongoing upkeep, and the lower hourly rate because it keeps going.
- One-off clean
- A deeper standalone reset by a small team, usually two cleaners for about three hours, charged per cleaner per hour with a minimum charge. Right for a move, after guests, or a home that has slid past what one regular slot can pull back.
Most of this page is the regular service, what most Sevenoaks households are after. The one-off has its own section below.
Regular cleaning: what it costs
Regular cleaning is charged per cleaner, per hour, and the rate turns on how often we come. A weekly clean is £22 per cleaner per hour. A fortnightly clean is £24 per cleaner per hour, a touch more because we are at your home half as often and a fortnight lets more dust and limescale settle back in. No VAT is added at the end, no travel charge inside the district, and the rate covers the products, the equipment and the cleaner’s time.
Here is what that means at your door. A three-hour weekly clean comes to £66 a visit. A fortnightly clean usually runs two to three hours depending on the size of the place, so between £48 and £72. A one-bed flat near the station might want two hours; a four-bed house out towards Wildernesse with two bathrooms is closer to four. We talk you through a realistic length on the phone before anything is booked.
Pricing by the hour, not by the room, is deliberate: no two Sevenoaks homes are the same shape, and we would rather give you an honest figure than a tidy fiction. The rate does not drop the more hours you book, and we will not pretend it does. On the bargain-basement quotes you will see advertised locally, most of those numbers only work because someone, somewhere, is being short-changed to make them work. Ours pay a fair wage to vetted cleaners who keep coming back, which is the whole reason you can have the same person for years. To see how the regular service sits alongside the rest, the domestic cleaning overview ties it together.

Want the ironing dealt with while we are there? Add it at £12 an hour on top of the cleaning time, and the cleaner works through the basket during the visit.
What a regular visit covers
A regular clean follows the same routine each visit, sized to your home and the hours booked. Kitchen and bathrooms get the real work. The rest gets dusted, hoovered and mopped, and the corners everyone walks past actually get seen to. Below is roughly what a three-hour weekly clean covers in a typical Sevenoaks three-bed. A bigger house wants more time. A smaller flat that finishes early gets the extras done rather than the cleaner clocking off ten minutes short.
Kitchen and bathrooms
- Worktops, splashback, sink and taps wiped, disinfected and descaled, then the hob done with the grates lifted and burners checked underneath.
- Appliance fronts: hob, extractor, fridge, dishwasher and the microwave outside, inside on request.
- Bath, shower, glass screen and tiles scrubbed and descaled, the part that eats the most time around here.
- Toilet done under the rim, round the base and the flush handle, floor washed into the corners and behind the pedestal. That last bit is the spot most cleaners skip, and the one a bathroom starts to smell from.
The rest of the home
- Dusting of every flat surface, picture rails and door frames included, which the older houses near the High Street collect plenty of.
- Carpets, rugs and hard floors hoovered, then mopped with the right solution for what you have down, since engineered wood and stone tile do not want the same product.
- Beds made if they are not, linen changed when you leave clean sheets out, skirting boards wiped on a rota rather than every week.
- Light switches, door handles and the bannister, then a final walk-through before the cleaner locks up.
Prefer we left your things where they are and did not tidy them? Say so on the first visit.
The one-off team clean
The one-off is the other service, and it pays to be clear how it differs from the weekly slot above.
A one-off is a deeper reset rather than ongoing upkeep, so we send a team, usually two cleaners for about three hours, and the place gets turned around in a single afternoon. It is £26 per cleaner per hour, with a £67 minimum charge for the visit. That is the right call before a party or after one, when you have just got the keys to a new place around Riverhead or Dunton Green, or when a home has drifted past what one regular slot can claw back.
It is a separate thing from the weekly or fortnightly retainer, where one cleaner keeps your home ticking over at the lower rate. People do mix the two, mind. Plenty of our regulars book a one-off team blitz a couple of times a year. The ironing add-on at £12 an hour works on a one-off as well.
Sevenoaks homes, and the water
Sevenoaks is not one kind of housing, and the clean shifts with the street. Up near Kippington and the avenues towards Knole you get big detached and semi-detached houses, deep pile in the lounges, often pale, with the kind of owner who notices every mark on the stairs. Drop down to St John’s and Hartslands, the old workers’ quarter north-east of the High Street that the council nearly flattened in the 1960s and then made a conservation area, and it is tight Victorian terraces with narrow steep stairs. Riverhead and Dunton Green add inter-war and post-war family homes, while the streets around the High Street hold listed period places inside the conservation area that has stood since 1971.
The access, parking and age of the place differ on every job. What nearly every Sevenoaks home shares is the water, and that shapes a clean here more than anything else.
The supply comes off the chalk aquifers under the North Downs through South East Water, and it runs very hard, well above the 300 parts per million that counts as the hard end of the scale. You already see it on the kettle, the taps and the shower screen, which clouds within days of a clean. So a good descaler sits in every cleaner’s kit before they reach your door. Descaling the bathroom is a weekly job here, not a monthly one. We cannot soften your mains. We can stop the build-up getting a hold.
Descaling the bathroom is a weekly job here, not a monthly one.
There is a quirk to the working day too. Sevenoaks is a serious commuter town, the station on Tubs Hill opened in 1868 and now runs several trains an hour into Charing Cross in about thirty-five minutes, so the streets near it empty by half eight and many homes sit quiet all day. That suits us. Most regulars hand over a key and we clean while they are out.
One cleaner, kept on your home
This is what people ask about first, so here is how it works. You are paired with a cleaner who already covers your part of Sevenoaks and has your slot open, and that person stays on your home for as long as it suits the pair of you. For most of our regulars that means the same face at the door every visit, year after year.
Everyone gains from it. A cleaner who knows your home, where the spare bin bags are kept and which floor cleaner lives under the sink, works faster and misses less than one starting cold each time. If yours is off sick or away, we will not leave you in the lurch and we will not push a stranger through the door blind. The cover gets a short written brief on your place first, so the standard does not wobble.
A clean falls short? You are covered.
Ring us within 24 hours and we come back to redo whatever was not right, free of charge. That is our re-clean guarantee, and there is no small print bolted onto it. We are Monster Cleaning Ltd, Companies House number 9919639, a real firm with an office and a phone rather than an app passing your details on. Our Trustpilot sits at 3.1 out of 5 across 128 reviews. I would sooner show you that plainly than dress it up.
How booking works
- Phone 0333 555 2076. Give us the property size, the bedroom and bathroom count, and how often you would like us. We talk through a sensible length and quote you on the spot.
- The first clean starts with a walk-round. On regular bookings the cleaner spends five minutes going room to room before getting stuck in, at no extra cost, so nothing gets missed and nothing gets disturbed that should not be.
- We assign your Sevenoaks cleaner. Someone already working your end of the district, with your slot free, who then stays on your home.
- Key, key safe, or you let us in. After a few visits most people leave a key with us, tagged to a reference number, never an address. A key safe code or being in yourself works just as well.
- A note when it is finished. The cleaner texts to say the job is done, usually with a photo or two of the rooms.
There is no deposit, no joining fee and nothing to lock you in. Switch frequency on a week’s notice, or stop when you want. We work out of 255 Upper Richmond Road West, SW14 8QS, a fair run up the A21 from the town, and if a phone call does not suit you, [email protected] reaches us just as well.
Other things we clean here
Plenty of our Sevenoaks regulars add one of these now and then, on top of the weekly or fortnightly slot:
- carpet cleaning in Sevenoaks once or twice a year, a different job with different kit, and on the local hard water a proper rinse keeps a good carpet from going grey.
- oven cleaning in Sevenoaks, a full strip-down twice a year or before a landlord inspection, racks and door glass done rather than a quick wipe.
- end of tenancy cleaning in Sevenoaks for when you are moving out and want the deposit back, priced as a fixed job by property size, not by the hour.
Frequently asked questions
How much does domestic cleaning in Sevenoaks cost?
Regular cleaning is £22 per cleaner per hour weekly and £24 per hour fortnightly, with no VAT and no call-out charge. A three-hour weekly clean works out at £66, and a fortnightly two to three hour clean lands between £48 and £72. A one-off clean is a separate service at £26 per cleaner per hour with a £67 minimum.
Is a one-off clean priced the same as your regular service?
No, they are two different jobs. A one-off is a deeper reset done by a team, usually two cleaners for about three hours, at £26 per cleaner per hour with a £67 minimum charge. The weekly and fortnightly retainer is cheaper per hour because it is ongoing upkeep with one cleaner kept on your home.
How often should I have a cleaner in Sevenoaks?
Weekly suits busy family houses, the bigger places towards Kippington and Wildernesse, and anyone working from home. Fortnightly is the sweet spot for smaller flats near the station and around St John’s. Unsure? Start fortnightly and we adjust after a month.
Do I need to provide cleaning products or a hoover?
No, the cleaner arrives with everything: vacuum, microfibre cloths, mop and a product for each surface. Because Sevenoaks runs on very hard chalk water, a decent descaler is always in the kit. If you keep your own eco range, or something for an allergy in the house, set it out and the cleaner will use yours.
Will I get the same cleaner every visit?
Almost always. You are paired with a cleaner who already covers your end of Sevenoaks and has your slot open, and that person stays on your home. Most of our regulars keep the same one for years. Cover for sickness or holiday is briefed on your property before they arrive.
Do I have to be home while the cleaner is there?
Rarely. With so many Sevenoaks households out commuting, most hand over a key or a key safe code and we clean to an empty house. In, work done, locked up, gone. The key carries a reference number only, never your address, and plenty of people prefer to be in for the first month, which is fine.
Which parts of Sevenoaks do you cover?
All of it. The TN13 town centre, St John’s, Hartslands, Riverhead, Greatness, Kippington, Wildernesse and Dunton Green, out to the villages around Knole. Not sure whether you are in our patch? Ring and ask.
Does the hard water in Sevenoaks affect the cleaning?
It is the thing that shapes the job most. South East Water draws this supply off the chalk and it runs very hard, well over 300 parts per million, so limescale comes back on taps, kettles and shower screens fast. That is why descaling is a weekly job here rather than a monthly one, and why a proper descaler is in every kit.
Can you do the ironing as well?
Yes. Ironing is an add-on at £12 an hour on top of the cleaning time, on both the regular service and a one-off. Leave the basket out and the cleaner works through it during the visit. Tell us roughly how much there usually is so we book enough time for both.
Are your cleaners vetted and insured?
Yes. Before anyone sets foot in a home we interview them in person, take up references and verify right to work, and we hold public liability cover up to £5 million. Monster Cleaning Ltd has traded since 2014 under Companies House number 9919639, so this is a real firm, not an app handing your details to a stranger.
What if I am not happy with a clean?
Call us within 24 hours and the cleaner returns to redo whatever fell short, at no cost. That is the re-clean guarantee, and we do not quibble over it. It is a rare call to get, but when it comes we put it right instead of getting prickly. If one cleaner keeps missing the mark, we switch you to another. And there is never a parking charge on top.
