About Us

Custom House Workers’ Co-operative started in response to a local problem: not enough stable jobs for local people. On the other side, local company/building owners were telling us that big cleaning companies were expensive and the turnover of staff was too high, making the service unreliable. We put our heads together and came up with a solution: a worker owned cleaning business that can guarantee stability, honesty and most importantly a fair price for both worker and client.

Ethical Approach

We are proud to be a Worker’s Co-operative; all of our workers co-own the business, so our workers take extra care and pride in their work. By being a co-operative we are part of a successful business model with a strong set of values, in keeping with companies such as the John Lewis Partnership. We care for our customers, workers and our wider impact on the environment.

It is important to us to live up to our values, so we use green products where possible, we pay our workers the Living Wage, and we ensure that our customers get the best value for money.
