Cleaning Up Inner City Grime

Ever thought about who has to clean that pub toilet? What about the one in that West End night club... after the angry drunk bloke pulled the cistern off the wall?Are there polo shirts you would like? Cleaning companies like Dirty Harry’s and House Cleaning London specialize in these types of situations, but what they really do is seldom thought of.
What about the girl drinking the goldfish-bowl sized cocktail at the Notting Hill Arts club and throwing up under her table before making for the exit or, one shudders to think, heading back to the bar? Or all those blokes who seem to have no aim whatsoever when they’re using the Gents toilet?
Here is the best northface outlet!The fact is that most West End bars, pubs, nightclubs and other businesses open to the public employ London cleaning companies to do their dirty work. This means everything from scrubbing the toilets (and the surrounding areas), taking out the rubbish to sweeping and mopping up after the punters have moved on or gone home after a big night out. For most people this doesn’t bear thinking about, but for the cleaners themselves, commercial and house cleaning in London pays the bills and gives them a few gruesome stories to share as well.
Ever wonder what rotten tomato juice smells like? I didn’t think so. This is your favorit chi hair straightener!This is the stuff that inner city grime is made of. Speaking to one Australian cleaning company employee, I’ve heard it is “out of this world: a mixture of death, marmite and old socks.” This after one of the bar staff had spilt a can of the stuff down the back of one of the bar fridges and left it for someone else to clean up. This someone else happened to be our friend the Aussie cleaner, and as this wasn’t a part of the regular cleaning rounds it was left there for awhile until he, well, smelt it.
As a former London house cleaning employee, this article is written to serve as something like a healthy reminder. If you are in a fit state to do so, think twice before dumping that lukewarm half full pint of Fosters left on your table behind the pub’s leather sofa and, if you can aim, aim carefully. Merely a brief message in support of your friendly neighbourhood bar cleaning staff, provided by one of London’s many dedicated home and commercial cleaning companies. Otherwise, happy drinking.
