Helping a 42-Bed Care Home Pass CQC Inspection

Client: A residential care home in Bedford

The Challenge

A care home was struggling with recurring infection control issues and had received a 'requires improvement' rating in their previous CQC inspection, specifically relating to cleanliness and hygiene standards.

Our Solution

We deployed our Healthcare Compliance system, assigning Priya (our infection prevention specialist) as lead. We implemented a colour-coded cleaning regime, introduced EN 1276/EN 14476 certified disinfectants, and established daily, weekly and monthly cleaning schedules with full documentation.

The Results

  • Passed their next CQC inspection with a 'Good' rating for cleanliness
  • Zero infection control deficiencies noted
  • Reduced cleaning-related complaints by 100%
  • Implemented a fully audit-ready documentation trail

From 4.2 to 4.9 Stars: Airbnb Host Rating Recovery

Client: A portfolio Airbnb host managing 6 properties in Luton

The Challenge

A growing Airbnb host was losing their Superhost status due to guest complaints about cleanliness. Their rating had slipped from 4.7 to 4.2 over six months, directly impacting bookings and revenue.

Our Solution

We implemented our 5-Star Airbnb Turnover System across all 6 properties. Maria (our hospitality lead) created property-specific cleaning checklists, established same-day turnover protocols, and introduced a pre-guest-arrival quality check.

The Results

  • Rating recovered from 4.2 to 4.9 within 8 weeks
  • Regained Superhost status within one quarter
  • Occupancy increased by 23% due to improved visibility
  • Zero cleanliness-related guest complaints in 6 months

Reducing Sick Days at a 120-Staff Office Building

Client: An insurance company office in Milton Keynes

The Challenge

A commercial office was experiencing high staff absence rates, particularly during winter months. The facilities manager suspected poor hygiene in shared areas was contributing to the spread of illness.

Our Solution

We conducted a full hygiene audit of the premises, then deployed our Sanctuary Commercial Clean system. We introduced touchpoint sanitisation protocols, upgraded to anti-microbial surface treatments in high-traffic areas, and implemented a daily washroom deep-clean regime.

The Results

  • Staff sick days reduced by 31% over one year
  • Washroom satisfaction scores improved from 62% to 94%
  • Zero hygiene-related facilities complaints
  • Contract renewed for a further 3-year term

End of Tenancy

Helping a Letting Agency Pass 100% of Deposit Returns

Client: A letting agency managing 200+ properties across Bedfordshire

The Challenge

A letting agency was facing frequent deposit disputes from tenants claiming the property wasn't cleaned to a professional standard at the end of tenancy. This was costing them time, money and reputation.

We established an end-of-tenancy cleaning partnership with a guaranteed standard. Every property now receives a documented deep clean with a photographic completion report, giving the agency irrefutable evidence of the cleaning standard.

The Results

  • 100% of deposit disputes resolved in the agency's favour
  • Average turnaround time reduced from 5 days to 2 days
  • Agency's Trustpilot rating improved to 4.8 stars
  • Now the agency's exclusive cleaning partner
