Serving South London
Block & communal cleaning in Croydon
Keep shared entrances, stairs and corridors clean with an agreed weekly, fortnightly or tailored schedule. Based in Norbury, Sea Lighter Services supports managing agents, landlords, housing providers and resident management companies across Croydon and nearby South London.
Local context
A small converted block and a larger development need different cleaning plans. We assess the shared areas, floors, surface types, access and visit frequency before setting out the tasks in writing. Exterior cleaning, gardening and minor maintenance can be scoped alongside the cleaning schedule, giving your property team one point of contact.

Cleaning in Croydon: common questions
What is included in communal cleaning for a Croydon block?
The written specification can include entrance floors, stairs, handrails, corridors, lift interiors, touch points and accessible internal glazing. Bin stores and exterior areas are included only when listed. We assess your building rather than promising a whole block clean at a generic starting price.
Can you clean the exterior of our building?
We assess suitable ground-level hard surfaces such as paths, patios, paved entrances and bin areas. Roofs, facades, cladding, work at height and specialist treatments are outside the standard pressure-washing scope and need separate assessment.
Do you offer weekly or fortnightly block cleaning?
Yes. Weekly, fortnightly and tailored recurring schedules can be agreed following a review of the building, the tasks and team availability. A requested date is confirmed only when we agree it with you.
How do I get a communal cleaning quotation?
Send the full postcode, number of floors and shared areas, photos, access details and preferred frequency using the form below. We confirm the scope, supplies, any additional charges and final price in writing before you accept.
Can gardening and small repairs be arranged with cleaning?
Yes. We can scope grounds maintenance and agreed minor repairs alongside communal cleaning. Each service, its frequency and any parts, materials or waste disposal are specified in the quotation.
