Commercial Cleaning Simon's Town arranges free quotes along the historic Main Road and through the surrounding streets: guest houses and small hotels, restaurants and cafes, tourism and retail businesses, offices, museums and community facilities.
Much of the commercial stock here is historic and some of it is protected. Painted timber, sash windows, stone thresholds and original floors all need methods that suit them, and that is worth putting in the brief rather than discovering later.
Send the building type, the floor area and where you are in Simon's Town, and say whether you want recurring cleaning or a once-off.

- Historic building fabric. Lime plaster, sandstone, painted timber and original joinery are common along Main Road. Aggressive chemicals and high-pressure water damage them, so method statements matter more here than machine size.
- Tourism seasonality. Visitor numbers swing hard between summer and winter, and so does the cleaning load in guest houses, restaurants and retail. Annual contracts smooth it better than buying peak capacity late.
- Salt and bird fouling. Direct exposure to the bay plus significant bird activity along the front. Ledges, signage, awnings and paving need attention that an inland premises would never require.
- Narrow streets and limited parking. Main Road is tight and loading space is scarce. Jobs needing equipment are generally scheduled early morning, and it is worth confirming where a vehicle can actually stand.
- Distance down the peninsula. Companies travelling from the metro add a long trip. Contractors already working the Far South are usually better priced for small and once-off jobs here.

Indicative ranges, not a quotation. Heritage fabric changes the method and therefore the price. High-pressure washing on old lime mortar, sandstone or original plaster causes damage, so paving and facades here are usually done at lower pressure or by hand, which takes longer.

Cleaning Heritage Premises
If your building is old, the brief should say so and the quote should respond to it. High-pressure water drives moisture into lime mortar and lifts paint from timber; strong alkaline cleaners etch sandstone and damage original finishes. The right approach is lower pressure, neutral products and more hand work, which takes longer and costs more per square metre than a modern surface.
It is also worth asking whether the company has done this kind of work before. A contractor used to warehouse floors and shopfront glass may not recognise which surfaces are sensitive, and the damage from one wrong visit is usually more expensive than the whole year's cleaning contract.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can our historic building be pressure washed?
Usually only at low pressure, and sometimes not at all. High pressure drives water into lime mortar and old plaster and lifts paint from timber. Ask the contractor what pressure they intend to use and on which surfaces before work starts.
Why are multi-pane windows more expensive?
Because they are priced per pane, and the labour sits in the number of panes rather than the area of glass. A sash window with twelve small panes takes far longer than a single sheet of the same size.
How do we manage bird fouling on the front?
Regular washing of ledges, awnings and signage rather than occasional heavy cleaning, because fouling is acidic and stains permanently if left. Where it is persistent, deterrents are a better spend than more frequent cleaning.
Is it more expensive to get a contractor this far down the peninsula?
For once-off work, usually. For a recurring contract where cleaners are on site, much less so. Companies already working Fish Hoek and the Far South generally price better here than companies coming from the metro.
How is guest house cleaning priced?
Per departure and per stayover room, with public areas quoted separately, or as a full monthly outsource for a small property. Ask for both so you can compare against your occupancy.
Do companies work here in the off season?
Yes, and winter is the sensible time to book deep cleans, carpet work and anything that disrupts trading. Rates for periodic work are generally better out of season.
