Quick Answer: Care agencies can arrange additional household cleaning for clients by referring them to a specialist domestic cleaning provider, with the client's agreement and clear separation of cleaning and personal-care responsibilities. Sanctuary Serene Clean offers Home Support Cleaning and welcomes referral discussions with agencies across Bedfordshire.
Domiciliary care agencies and community support organisations help individuals manage different aspects of everyday living.
However, some clients may require additional domestic cleaning beyond the tasks covered by their existing support arrangements.
A specialist cleaning provider can offer a practical service that complements other forms of support.
Why Additional Domestic Cleaning May Be Needed
Some individuals receiving support at home may struggle with physically demanding household cleaning tasks.
For example, they may require assistance with vacuuming, cleaning bathrooms, mopping floors or maintaining kitchens.
Where these tasks fall outside the agreed responsibilities of existing care workers, a separate cleaning arrangement may be appropriate.
Benefits of Working with a Cleaning Partner
A dedicated cleaning provider can help care agencies offer clients information about additional household support.
Potential benefits include:
- Access to scheduled domestic cleaning
- Clearer separation of cleaning and care responsibilities
- Flexible cleaning arrangements
- A dedicated contact for cleaning enquiries
- Additional options for clients and families
How Referrals Can Work
A care agency may identify that a client could benefit from additional household cleaning.
With the client's agreement, the agency can provide information about available cleaning providers or help the client contact a provider directly.
Personal information should only be shared where there is an appropriate lawful basis and relevant data protection requirements are met.
Cleaning Services Are Different from Personal Care
Domestic cleaning focuses on household cleanliness and hygiene.
Domiciliary care may involve personal-care activities that are regulated in England.
A cleaning partnership should maintain clear boundaries between these services.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide personal care alongside cleaning?
No. Home Support Cleaning focuses on household cleanliness and hygiene. Domestic cleaning is distinct from the regulated personal-care activities involved in domiciliary care, and a partnership keeps clear boundaries between the two.
How does a referral from a care agency work?
With the client's agreement, the agency can share information about available cleaning providers or help the client contact a provider directly. Any sharing of personal information must have an appropriate lawful basis and meet data protection requirements.
