The opportunity arose from a casual comment from a local pub owner who needed a commercial cleaning company for his two local public houses. Having flitted between Army houses over the years they were used to maintaining a high standard of cleanliness, so this experience enabled them to keep up those standards when cleaning for others once in "civvy street". Initially the firm took on all contracts it could get from commercial cleaning and domestic cleaning to floor maintenance, carpet and upholstery cleaning. Gradually it became obvious that it was impossible to supervise contracts any distance away. From then on the decision was made to restrict operations within North East Lincolnshire area. Thus making it easier to maintain a personal supervision of standards and ensure customer satisfaction.
