When we finish cleaning 🧹your property our job isn’t finished just yet

We get home and start your laundry 🧺

In the past week I have done over 2️⃣0️⃣ loads of washing (not including my own personal laundry) Iv lost count how many hours Iv spent ironing 🤦‍♀️

Looking for something to do on a Thursday or Saturday?
Why not pop over to Events Square - Falmouth and have a look around the market, lots of local Cornish stands with their amazing products, don’t forget the big wheel to keep the kids of all sizes amused with the stunning views.
