Commercial cleaning in Nottingham, staffed in Nottingham.
Contract cleaning for offices, professional practices, residential blocks and industrial sites across Nottingham — from the Lace Market and the city centre to the business parks at NG2 and along the ring road. Teams recruited locally and employed by us, supervised on a Nottinghamshire route, with relief cover and hours you can verify.
A compact city centre with a large student population and business parks all round it.
Nottingham's commercial life is split between the centre and the ring. In the centre: the offices and professional practices of the Lace Market, the streets around Old Market Square and the Castle Quarter, and the managed residential and student buildings that serve two universities. Around the ring: the business parks at NG2 and Nottingham Business Park, the retail and leisure at Castle Marina and Riverside, and the industrial estates at Colwick, Lenton and along the A52 towards Beeston.
What that mix means for cleaning is variety in one contract book — an evening office round in the Lace Market, a weekly communal round on a student block, a shift-based welfare clean on an industrial unit — and a supervisor route that covers all three. The sector pages below carry the detail for each.
Staffed near the building, supervised from the road.
A commercial contract is not delivered from a van that drives out from Sheffield each night. It is staffed around one building with its own team, which is what makes distance a logistics question rather than an obstacle. Here is what that means in Nottingham.
Recruited near the site, employed by us
The cleaners on a Nottingham contract are recruited within sensible travel of the building and directly employed by NowThen, then inducted on your site specifically. The same faces each visit, because they live nearby and they stay.
On a regional route, in person
Nottingham contracts sit on a Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire supervisor route that also covers Mansfield, Worksop, Derby and Chesterfield. Supervisors audit against the specification in person rather than by phone.
Relief cleaners, and hours you can see
Absence is covered by relief cleaners we employ for that purpose. Every visit is checked in and out with GPS-verified timestamps, so the hours on the invoice are the hours worked and an attendance question has a record rather than an argument.

Four steps, and a price that comes from the building.
Nothing is quoted from a rate card. A site visit in Nottingham is how it starts.
Site visit
We come to the building — the areas, the hours, the standard, and the things the last contractor kept getting wrong.
Written proposal
A specification and a price with the hours stated. Insurance and compliance documents come with it.
Mobilisation
A local team recruited and inducted, access arranged, RAMS written for the site. A start date, not a vague fortnight.
Supervision
Your building on a supervisor's route, a named contact who stays the same, and a specification that moves when the building does.
The questions Nottingham buyers ask.
Q.01Are you actually based in Nottingham?
No — we are registered and based in Sheffield, and we say so. What we do in Nottingham is staff a contract with a team recruited within sensible travel of the building, directly employed and inducted on your site, and put the building on a supervisor's regional route. That is how every contract outside Sheffield is run, and it is the honest version of "local".
Q.02Is there a minimum contract size for Nottingham?
Not a fixed one. The honest test is whether we can recruit a reliable team within sensible travel of your site and put it on a supervisor's route — which in Nottingham, a city of this size, is not usually the problem. Small buildings are not a small priority; the site visit is shorter, that is all.
Q.03Can you clean outside our hours?
Almost always — evening, early morning, overnight or daytime presence, agreed at the site visit. Access, alarm codes and keyholding are set up during mobilisation and held under our procedures.
Q.04We manage student buildings. Can you handle the summer changeover?
Yes — it is a large part of what we do for student accommodation. Extra teams and a supervisor on site for the changeover days, rooms and kitchens to a handover standard against a fixed date, and the communal round alongside. Apartment block & communal cleaning →
Q.05How is it priced?
From a site visit, against a written specification with the hours stated. Cleaners check in and out with GPS-verified timestamps, so the hours invoiced are the hours worked. Anyone who quotes a commercial contract without seeing the building is estimating your hours.
