At Skweeky Kleen, we provide professional healthcare cleaning services across the UK, including cleaning for dental practices, orthodontic clinics, and LDU decontamination rooms.
We’ve designed our service so that it’s focused on infection control, cross-contamination prevention, audit preparation, and the smooth day-to-day running of patient-facing clinical environments, so you can focus on what matters: seeing to your patients.
Commercial cleaning vs. clinical excellence: why specialism matters
While a regular office can suffice with standard commercial cleaning, dental offices come with an extra layer of risk, bacteria, and hygiene considerations and regulations to follow.
Since you're dealing with different patients every day and handling specialised equipment, you need a cleaning plan that focuses on protecting your staff and patients through rigorous decontamination processes.
At Skweeky Kleen, our healthcare cleaning plans are built around the National Standards of Healthcare Cleanliness, including the 2025 framework. We look at how each room is used, who uses it, and how often it’s used to understand the level of cleaning that’s needed to meet high cleanliness standards.
It’s more about protecting your staff and patients from illness than it is about just making your dental office look clean and tidy.
Navigating cross-contamination risks
Cross-contamination prevention is one of the most important parts of dental cleaning, which is why clinical rooms, washrooms, kitchens, and public spaces should all have separate cleaning plans and cleaning tools.
That’s why we use colour-coded equipment, always wear PPE, and follow site-specific method statements to help keep tools and processes separated in each room. Doing so reduces the risk of cleaning equipment being moved between high-risk and lower-risk zones.
The demands of a patient-facing environment
Patients judge the professionalism of a practice from the moment they walk through the door, while staff need clean, safe, and well-maintained areas to work in throughout the day.
Our dental practice cleaning services help you maintain a good public image, so your patients feel comfortable from the get-go.
We also create cleaning plans that fit your business hours and needs, so our cleaners don’t disrupt patient bookings or clinical routines.
Standardised medical-grade cleaning across every location
If you have more than one dental practice across different locations, it makes sense to set up a consistent cleaning plan for each location.
Every building may have a different layout or set of needs, but you should maintain a similar standard for cleaning, scheduling, and reporting, so it’s easier to manage each one.
That’s why we provide national commercial cleaning coverage, with offices in London, Cardiff, Birmingham, and Newcastle, so we have cleaners up and down the country.
Zone 1: Clinical treatment rooms and surgeries
Clinical rooms and surgeries arguably require the most thorough cleaning, since they see vulnerable patients every day and handle surgical instruments.
Our cleaners will clean the agreed-upon surfaces, such as high-touch points and non-invasive equipment, in line with protocols.
Zone 2: Decontamination rooms and local decontamination units (LDU)
These form part of the wider infection-prevention process within a dental practice, so they require careful, thorough cleaning.
We create a cleaning plan that utilises colour-coded systems, COSHH controls, and site-specific procedures to make sure these rooms are cleaned with care.
Zone 3: Patient reception and high-footfall waiting areas
Since these areas are often where your patients or visitors form their first impression of your practice, keeping them clean and tidy is important. Plus, many people come in day in, day out, so they’re bound to harbour a lot of bacteria.
Our cleaners will make sure that every surface is scrubbed clean, including desks, seating areas, doors, handles, hard floors, and touchpoints, so it looks presentable and offers a comfortable and hygienic space for patients.
Zone 4: Staff facilities, offices, and washrooms
Staff areas are easy to overlook, but keeping your staff as comfortable and healthy as possible is just as important.
We will make sure these rooms are kept on top of and free of any stains, odours, and bacteria. Our cleaners will provide meticulous cleaning of washrooms, focusing on touchpoints, basins, taps, handles, cubicles, dispensers, mirrors, floors, and sanitary areas.
We’ll also log issues like low stock of consumables, leaks, blocked drains, or damaged fixtures.
A bulletproof framework for your CQC audit readiness
Audit readiness begins with a cleaning plan that is easy to check and keep up with.
We support healthcare clients with cleaning schedules, KPIs, site-specific risk assessments, trained operatives, and digital records that can be referred to during inspections, internal reviews, or contractor meetings.
Strict adherence to national colour-coding systems
Our operatives use colour-coded equipment for different areas to prevent the risk of cross-contamination.
It also means that the correct equipment and methods are used for each area.
Full audit trails, COSHH logs, and transparent signing sheets
We use our very own quality management system, Kore, to keep track of each contract and every clean.
Through the Kore Customer Portal, clients can view contract information, including timekeeping records, quality audit results, and cleaning documents, whenever they need it.
It also provides a pressure-free space for clients to give feedback or let us know of any issues with the service. COSHH is also built into staff training, with operatives trained in the use of cleaning products, safe storage, supplier data sheets, and associated risks.
Enhanced DBS-vetted and clinically trained operatives
We directly employ all of our staff, avoiding outsourcing, so we’re aware of everyone who works for us and know they have been trained by us, ensuring consistent standards and safety.
Operatives are trained, vetted and DBS-checked before working with clients, with enhanced DBS checks carried out where necessary. Our staff also receive training in areas such as health and safety, customer service, and safeguarding.
Centralised operations for multi-site dental groups
Having one company oversee the cleanliness of every site means you’re dealing with one cleaning provider and one reporting method.
- One point of contact, one itemised invoice : Each contract is overseen by an account manager and an audit manager who act as links between the delivery team, the management team, and the client.
- Local accountability with regional supervisory audits : We provide commercial cleaning services from Cornwall up to Scotland. We also implement a score system, such as our traffic light rating, as a straightforward way to monitor performance.
- Guaranteed shift cover and emergency rapid response : Our Kore system gives real-time alerts, so if an operative doesn’t arrive when expected, the nearest support team can be mobilised.
Our nationwide onboarding process
We want the process to run as smoothly as possible for you, so we take the time to understand your needs from the get-go and what you expect from our service so we can go above and beyond to deliver.
Step 1: Centralised consultation and KPI mapping
The process begins with a consultation to understand what you need from us.
We’ll cover topics such as opening hours, typical footfall, appointment patterns, current cleaning issues, and cleaning expectations.
Step 2: Local site surveys and bespoke RAMS delivery
Next, site surveys and risk assessments are conducted, focusing on patient and staff areas, clinical rooms, and washrooms.
We’ll carry out risk assessments for each area and create a cleaning plan that meets all your needs. This will include method statements and COSHH documentation based on the layout and requirements of your dental practice.
Step 3: Standardised implementation and quality handover
Once we’ve agreed on a cleaning plan, we’ll select and brief operatives on the plan, arrange DBS checks, provide site-specific training, confirm access arrangements, and prepare digital logs.
Account management and reporting processes are also set up so your team knows how to raise issues, review each clean, and monitor the contract.

A cleaner business starts here.
How do your dental cleaning services support our compliance with CQC Regulation 15?
We have a lot of factors put in place to prevent cross-contamination, and we use the best products and equipment in the business to deliver safe, hygienic cleaning every time.
We provide agreed-upon cleaning schedules, trained operatives, site-specific risk assessments, monitored standards, and digital records, so everything is tracked and documented for our clients.
How do your cleaners prevent cross-contamination between clinical surgeries and waiting areas?
Our cleaners use colour-coded equipment, wear PPE, and follow site-specific method statements to keep cleaning tools and processes separate for each room or type of area.
Doing so helps reduce the risk of equipment being used across clinical, public, washroom and staff areas, so everything is contained and there isn’t a risk of bacteria spread.
Are your staff trained to clean Local Decontamination Units (LDUs) and sterilisation areas?
Yes, we’re qualified to clean dental practices, orthodontic clinics, and LDU decontamination rooms.
Our cleaners will clean every area in line with site protocols, product instructions, and your internal policies, so you know that your dental practice is in safe hands.
However, we won’t take over clinical duties such as sterilising dental instruments, as these must be performed by dental professionals.
What types of cleaning chemicals do you use, and are they safe for clinical equipment?
We use cleaning products from Jangro Enviro Concentrates, which are professional-grade, bleach-free, and highly concentrated. These are designed for high-performance cleaning and are completely safe to use in clinical settings.
We also follow COSHH requirements, including conducting risk assessments, consulting safety data sheets, training all cleaners to use our products and equipment, and adhering to safe storage controls.
Are your cleaning teams fully vetted, and will we have the same cleaners every shift?
Yes, we directly employ our staff and never outsource cleaners for any of our jobs, so we make sure our operatives are trained, vetted, and DBS checked before working with clients.
We also use account management, have mobile teams constantly on the go, and have standby operatives to cover any absences and make sure you have enough cleaners for every job.
Can you provide out-of-hours cleaning to avoid disrupting our patient booking schedules?
Yes! We work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so cleaning plans can be built around appointment times, staff rotas, and opening hours so we don’t disrupt your staff or patients during the work day.
How do you handle account management?
Each contract is overseen by an account manager who acts as the link between the cleaning delivery team, the management team, and the client.
You’ll also be given an audit manager who will conduct regular quality audits to make sure everything is up to standard.
Clients can use our Kore Customer Portal to view contract information, communicate about the service, leave feedback, and access any cleaning documents.
