Graciete is fantastic. We’ve had several cleaners before and were never completely satisfied, but this time we’re really happy with the results. She doesn’t need guidance, just gets on with the job efficiently and professionally, with great attention to detail. She’s the first cleaner we’ve had who actually completed everything within the allotted time, and the results are spot on. We’ll definitely book her again.

Nana does a great job, and thinks of all the little things like taking the bin out and hidden parts of the stairs. House feels much cleaner!

Islington incorporates the postcode areas N1, N4, N5, N6, N7, N8, N16, N19, EC1, EC2, NW5 and WC1 and is serviced by multiple tube and rail stations including Tufnell Park, Archway, Upper Holloway, Crouch Hill, Finsbury Park, Arsenal, Drayton Park, Holloway Road, Camden Road, Angel, Highbury & Islington, Canonbury, Caledonian Road & Barnsbury, Essex Road, Old Street and Farringdon.

Islington is known for its Victorian and Georgian townhouses set on communal garden squares. The housing stock also includes many flats in the form of converted terraces, warehouse conversions and modern new-build apartments.
