The Association employs its our own maintenance team for all general responsive maintenance and works with Happy Hands for all its end of tenancy cleaning across London as well cleaning its public areas across six buildings including stairwells, shared bathrooms, lobbies and other communal areas.
Happy Hands has been providing its cleaning services to Zebra Housing for 15 years providing twice weekly cleaning services on five sites and daily cleaning at head office, plus end of tenancy cleaning across its 140 flats.
Lisa Harley of Zebra Housing said “We have a long and happy relationship with Happy Hands. It’s important to have a cleaning service that is able to provide a range of services to meet your varying needs, that is reliable and that you can trust. Happy Hands are extremely flexible and provide an exceptionally responsive service – often with very little notice. We’re also delighted with how thorough the cleaning service is and would recommend Happy Hands to anyone looking for a fully managed cleaning service across multiple sites.”
