Cleaning communal areas the responsible way

When it comes to cleaning the shared indoor spaces in our estates, the products we use are designed to be effective without being harsh. They are tough on dirt, odours and bacteria, but gentle on surfaces and everyday use areas.

This means:

  • a cleaner, fresher feel in communal areas
  • lower levels of harsh fumes, improving indoor air quality
  • reduced risk of irritation for residents, visitors and pets
  • protection for floors, windows and finishes, helping them last longer

Our cleaners are also pH‑neutral, meaning they clean effectively without damaging delicate or high‑gloss surfaces.

Better for the environment — and our communities

Using environmentally responsible products helps reduce the wider impact of cleaning on the planet. Many of the products we use avoid unnecessary chemicals and are kinder to waterways once rinsed away.

We also look beyond the product itself and focus on how it’s packaged and reused.

  • Reusable containers are collected, cleaned and refilled instead of thrown away
  • 100% recycled plastic packaging helps reduce the need for new materials
  • Paper sachet refills cut down on plastic and avoid transporting excess water
  • Cleaning cloths and mops are returned for recycling, giving materials a second life

All of this means much less waste going to landfill and a smaller overall carbon footprint.

For residents, the right choices make a real difference

Making sure we choose the right products means:

  • cleaner, healthier shared spaces
  • fewer chemical smells in enclosed areas like hallways and stairwells
  • a home environment that reflects responsible, modern estate management
  • the reassurance sustainability is built into everyday services

A cleaner today, a better tomorrow

By choosing environmentally friendly cleaning products and recycling systems, we’re helping to protect shared spaces now, and resources for the future.

It’s just one of the ways we’re committed to looking after our estates, our communities and the environment around us.
