Starling Corporate is proud to present a long-established contract cleaning business with a strong reputation in the education sector across Surrey and the surrounding counties. Founded in 2006 as a domestic cleaning agency, the Company has evolved into a specialist provider of cleaning services to state and private schools, complemented by a modest portfolio of churches, offices and communal buildings. The business is now being offered for sale as its principal shareholder, seeks retirement after two decades of ownership.
The Company employs a flexible workforce of approximately 130 cleaning operatives, supported by a lean management structure comprising regional, area and office management, together with a dedicated compliance function. This infrastructure allows the Company to deliver a responsive, mobile cleaning service across a tightly defined geographic footprint, with all clients located within one hour’s drive of the Company’s office.
For the year ended 30 April 2026, the Company generated turnover of approximately £2.15 million and an adjusted EBIT margin in the region of 8–10%, consistent with the owners’ stated targets.
Our client is a well-established, profitable and operationally robust contract cleaning business with a clear identity in the education sector. It combines a long trading history, a loyal and recurring client base, a differentiated mobile service model and an accredited commitment to industry standards.
For a larger cleaning or facilities services group seeking a credible entry point into the Surrey and wider South East education market, this business represents a strategically coherent and financially sound acquisition platform.
