About Miss Maid
Miss Maid Ltd was founded in 2001 and is headquartered in Canary Wharf (Docklands Business Centre, Tiller Road, E14 8PX). They started as a small domestic cleaning team and grew primarily through word-of-mouth — which, after 25 years, is a real signal of consistent quality.
They're a multi-service company: regular domestic cleaning, end of tenancy, carpet and upholstery, oven cleaning, office cleaning, event cleaning, builders cleans, and more. Their carpet cleaners are NCCA, Prochem, and TrustMark certified — meaning they meet formal industry standards for carpet care, which is useful if you're booking carpet cleaning as an add-on to your EOT clean.
They hold ISO 9001 quality management certification and SafeContractor approval, which means they've been independently audited for both service quality and health and safety. They pay above the London Living Wage, carry £5 million in public liability insurance, and have an in-house NEBOSH-qualified health and safety advisor.
In terms of scale, they're a well-known name in London's cleaning industry — not the biggest (that's probably Fantastic Services) but one of the most established direct companies. Their 900+ Trustpilot reviews span all their services, not just end of tenancy.
What Miss Maid's Customers Actually Say
We went through their Trustpilot reviews focusing specifically on end of tenancy cleaning mentions. Here are the recurring themes — good and bad.
Thorough end of tenancy cleaning
Multiple reviewers mention getting their full deposit back after Miss Maid's clean. The checkout-specific reviews are generally strong — people highlight the thoroughness of the teams.
Good communication throughout
Several reviewers note that Miss Maid's office called them during the clean with updates, and again the day after to check if the checkout went well. This kind of proactive follow-up is above average for the industry.
Flexible on guarantee — even past the window
One particularly useful review describes Miss Maid honouring a reclean request even after the 72-hour guarantee had expired because the landlord was slow to respond. This suggests the guarantee is enforced generously, which is a genuine plus.
Carpet cleaning quality
The NCCA and Prochem certifications show in the reviews — carpet and upholstery cleaning is frequently praised, with one reviewer noting the waste water was visibly dirty after a supposedly 'already cleaned' carpet was re-done.
Price disputes on arrival
A small number of reviews mention the team arriving and quoting a significantly higher price than originally agreed — one reviewer reported being asked for double the quoted price. This is worth being aware of, though it doesn't appear to be a common pattern.
Inconsistent quality on some jobs
As with any company operating at scale for 25 years, there are reviews describing jobs that fell below standard. Some mention surfaces being wiped but not properly cleaned, or areas being missed. The positive reviews far outweigh the negative ones, but it's not 100% consistent.
Breakage and accountability
One reviewer described a window being broken during cleaning and the company denying responsibility. This is a rare complaint, and the £5M insurance should cover it — but communication around damage could be smoother according to this reviewer.
Who Should Choose Which?
Both are direct companies with employed teams, fixed pricing, and reclean guarantees. The difference is in the details. Here's our honest take on who each company is best for.
