7 Summer Messes You Can’t Afford to Ignore

What We’re Up To This Summer

It’s been a busy summer here at Berkeley Cleaning Services!

On July 23rd, we successfully completed a full kitchen deep clean at Danbury Primary School, ensuring their facilities are spotless and ready for the new term.

We also carried out a thorough summer deep clean at Mountnessing Primary School from July 28th to 31st, leaving classrooms and shared spaces fresh and hygienic for returning students and staff.

We’re also proud to have recently started working with the QTS Group at New Street in Chelmsford, providing ongoing cleaning services for their office spaces.

It’s a pleasure to continue supporting local schools, businesses, and organisations with the reliable, high-quality cleaning we’ve been delivering since 1970.

August Cleaning Countdown.

Your Local, Trusted Experts Since 1970


August isn’t just the tail end of summer — it’s the perfect window to reset, refresh, and get your space sparkling before the September rush. Whether you’re heading back to school, preparing your business for a busy autumn, or finally noticing that summer grime building up, there’s no better time to call in a cleaning team you can trust.

At Berkeley Cleaning Services, we’ve been cleaning homes, offices, schools, and businesses across Chelmsford and surrounding areas for over 54 years. Family-run since 1970, we’re proud to be the go-to experts for deep cleans, end of tenancy refreshes, and emergency cleaning jobs — not just in January, but all year round.

👉 Here are 7 urgent August cleaning jobs you probably need to book right now (before they become September nightmares):


1. The Hidden Mess Behind Your Fridge

Summer’s been tough on your kitchen. BBQ leftovers, forgotten ice lollies, and cold drink spills have likely worked their way behind and under your appliances. Dirt and grease trapped here can cause inefficiency and even unpleasant odours.

Solution: Our expert teams handle deep residential and commercial cleans to tackle the spaces most people overlook.


2. Your Office Carpets Are Holding Summer Hostage

Offices tend to collect dust, pollen, and foot traffic grime throughout the summer. If your carpets haven’t seen a professional clean recently, you’re about to walk into a musty September.

Solution: Berkeley Cleaning Services offer both commercial and domestic carpet cleaning to breathe life back into your floors.


3. Back-to-School Germ Bombs: Schools & Nurseries Need a Deep Clean Now

With kids returning soon, schools, nurseries, and village halls need more than a quick tidy — they need a thorough deep clean to keep everyone safe.

Solution: We’re trusted by schools and nurseries throughout #Chelmsford, #Colchester, #Brentwood and beyond for deep, hygienic cleaning that meets government guidelines.


4. Your Showroom Shine is Fading: Builders & Sparkle Cleans Needed

Construction projects don’t slow down in August — but summer dust, debris, and building residue can make even a brand-new space look tired.

Solution: We specialise in builders cleans and sparkle cleans for construction companies and private homeowners. Let us give your property that “just built” brilliance.


5. Window Grime Alert: Summer Smudges Are Blocking Your View

Whether it’s your home, school, office, or a new build, windows take a beating during summer — pollen, rain spots, sticky fingerprints — all clouding your view.

Solution: Our internal and external window cleaning services across Chelmsford and surrounding areas will get you looking sharp again.


6. End of Tenancy Panic? We’ve Got You.

August is a peak moving month. Whether you’re a tenant scrambling to recover your deposit, a landlord preparing for new tenants, or an estate agent needing a quick turnaround, we’re ready.

Solution: Fast, professional end of tenancy cleans across #Witham, #Braintree, #Maldon and more.


7. The “I’ll Get to It Later” Deep Clean Spots

Baseboards, door handles, kitchen kickboards, office desks, school hall floors — these often-forgotten areas are overdue for attention.

Solution: Our deep cleans cover the details you don’t have time for — in offices, schools, homes, warehouses, portacabins, and more.
