Limitations & Specialist Requests

We’re transparent about what we do and what requires a specialist:

• We do not handle asbestos removal, pest control, major waste clearance, or hazardous chemical disposal.
• Specialist kitchen extraction duct cleaning, scientific lab sanitation, or clinical biohazard work can be arranged with approved partners or scoped as separate projects.
• Extensive external works (e.g., playground pressure washing) and high-level cleaning above safe reach will need a site assessment and may require MEWPs and permits.
• Repairs, PAT testing, and maintenance are out of scope.
• If you need safeguarding or visitor protocols beyond our standard DBS and sign-in process, we’ll incorporate them into a bespoke site method statement.
