Award-Winning Commercial Cleaning Company in Cambridge

We are proud to have earned multiple awards for our dedicated services to our clients, including the ‘Cambridgeshire Environmental Business of the Year Award 2 years in a row!

The Cambridge Biomedical Campus is one of the largest biomedical research clusters in the world, home to the AstraZeneca global headquarters, Royal Papworth Hospital and Addenbrooke’s Hospital.

Environments like these require cleaning regimes that go well beyond standard office work. Contamination control, defined hygiene protocols, and a clear understanding of how laboratory and clinical spaces function are all non-negotiable.

Alliance Cleaning builds service specifications around the precise requirements of each facility.

Whether you operate a research laboratory, a clinical support facility, or a corporate office within the biomedical corridor, our teams work to documented standards that protect both your environment and the people within it.

Serving Cambridge’s Wider Business and Technology Community

Cambridge’s business base reaches well beyond its biomedical corridor.

The Cambridge Science Park is widely cited as one of the largest commercial research and development centres in Europe, housing dozens of technology, engineering and software companies.

Anglia Ruskin University adds a major higher education presence to the city, while a growing hospitality sector, retail environment and public sector base complete a genuinely diverse commercial picture.

Alliance Cleaning’s local teams can serve all of these environments.

We understand that a technology office on the Science Park has different cleaning requirements from a university building or a hotel near the city centre.

Our contract managers are trained to understand your sector, not just your schedule.

Why Cambridge Organisations Choose Alliance Cleaning

Alliance Cleaning has operated from its Hertfordshire base since 1998, giving us straightforward access to Cambridge and strong operational knowledge of the East of England market.

Our Hertford head office is well positioned to support clients across Cambridgeshire, Essex and the surrounding regions.

Our dedicated contract manager model makes a practical difference. Each manager looks after fewer sites than the industry average, which means more time on site, faster responses, and a closer working relationship with your team.

You’ll always reach someone who knows your premises.

We hold ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) and ISO 45001 (Health and Safety Management) certifications, a professional standard that procurement and facilities teams at larger Cambridge organisations consistently ask for.

Our staff are DBS-checked and trained through our Alliance Pathway programme, giving you confidence in everyone who enters your building.

ESG is embedded into how we operate as standard, not treated as a separate initiative. Contracted clients benefit from a 1-hour first-contact response time, so service issues are dealt with promptly rather than left to drag.

Areas We Cover Around Cambridge

Alliance Cleaning serves Cambridge and the surrounding area, including Ely, Huntingdon, St Ives, Newmarket, Royston, Saffron Walden, Haverhill, Bar Hill, Waterbeach and Histon.

We also cover further afield across the region, including Peterborough to the north and Northampton to the west. Our local teams are based across the region, supported by our national operational structure and Hertford head office.

If your organisation has multiple sites across Cambridgeshire or the wider East Midlands, we can coordinate all your cleaning through a single Alliance Cleaning contract.

Supporting Your ESG Goals

If your organisation reports against Net Zero targets or undergoes procurement assessments where supplier ESG credentials matter, your cleaning partner forms part of that picture.

Alliance Cleaning holds ISO 14001 Environmental Management certification, providing independent verification of our environmental practices. Our teams use environmentally responsible cleaning chemistry, microfibre technology reduces water consumption, and we favour UK-based suppliers to limit transport emissions.

Our social commitment is just as concrete.

The Alliance Pathway programme develops staff well beyond basic cleaning skills, and our Alliance Giving Back initiative contributed 300 volunteer hours to community projects in 2025. We can provide documented evidence of our ESG practices to support your own reporting requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

How much does commercial cleaning cost in Cambridge?

Commercial cleaning costs vary depending on several factors: the size of your premises, how frequently you need cleaning, the hours required, the types of spaces involved, and whether specialist work such as laboratory or deep clean services is part of the brief. A small professional office will carry a very different cost from a multi-building technology campus or a clinical research facility. Alliance Cleaning always bases pricing on a free site assessment, so you receive a clear, itemised quote that reflects your actual requirements. Contact our team for a no-obligation quote.

How does Alliance Cleaning support our ESG goals in Cambridge?

Alliance Cleaning holds ISO 14001 Environmental Management certification, meaning our environmental responsibilities are managed to an independently audited standard. We use environmentally responsible cleaning chemistry across our operations, with a focus on reducing chemical impact and waste. ESG is embedded into how we operate as standard, from how we manage consumables and waste on site to how we support our staff through the Alliance Pathway training programme. For Cambridge organisations with formal ESG reporting requirements, including technology companies on the Science Park and businesses within the Biomedical Campus, we can provide documentation to support your reporting processes.

What happens if our regular cleaner is off sick?

Service continuity is built into our contract model. When a member of your cleaning team is unavailable due to sickness or leave,
the Alliance Support Services teams provide cover so your cleaning schedule continues without disruption. You won’t find yourself managing gaps or chasing for cover. Your contract manager remains your single point of contact throughout, and we make every effort to maintain consistency of personnel so your building team continues to see familiar faces.

Do you provide commercial cleaning throughout Cambridge?

Alliance Cleaning provides commercial cleaning services across the whole of Cambridge, including the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, Cambridge Science Park, the city centre and surrounding business districts. We serve organisations of all sizes, from small professional services firms to multi-building research and corporate facilities. Our local teams are familiar with Cambridge’s broad commercial community and work across varied requirements and contract types.

What areas around Cambridge do you cover?

In addition to Cambridge itself, Alliance Cleaning covers a wide area across Cambridgeshire and the surrounding region, including Ely, Huntingdon, St Ives, Newmarket, Royston, Saffron Walden, Haverhill, Bar Hill, Waterbeach and Histon. For organisations with multiple sites across the region, we can coordinate all locations through a single contract with one dedicated point of contact.

Do you offer out-of-hours commercial cleaning in Cambridge?

Alliance Cleaning can deliver out-of-hours cleaning services across Cambridge to suit your operational schedule. Many of our Cambridge clients, particularly those in research, technology and office environments, prefer cleaning to take place early morning, late evening or at weekends to keep disruption to their teams to a minimum. We agree service schedules at the outset of your contract and can adjust them as your needs evolve.

Do you clean laboratory and life sciences premises in Cambridge?

Yes. Alliance Cleaning has significant experience cleaning laboratory, clinical and research environments. For life sciences and biomedical organisations in Cambridge, including those operating within the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, we build service specifications that address contamination control, hygiene protocols and the particular sensitivities of laboratory spaces. We are happy to discuss your requirements and can work alongside your health and safety team to develop an appropriate cleaning regime.

Are your Cambridge cleaning teams DBS-checked?

All Alliance Cleaning staff are DBS-checked before deployment. Our teams are uniformed and trained through the Alliance Pathway programme, our in-house training system covering cleaning standards, health and safety, COSHH and site-specific requirements. For organisations with security or compliance requirements, including many of those operating on the Cambridge Science Park or within the Biomedical Campus, this is part of our standard operating approach.

What makes Alliance Cleaning different from other commercial cleaning companies in Cambridge?

Several things stand out. Our ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 certifications demonstrate that our quality, environmental and health and safety management are independently audited, not just claimed. Our dedicated contract manager model means your account manager looks after fewer sites than the industry average, which translates directly into more attention for your premises and faster resolution of any issues. We have 28 years’ experience as a family-run business, and all our teams are trained in-house through the Alliance Pathway programme. For Cambridge organisations with procurement or facilities teams who require documented standards and consistent delivery, Alliance Cleaning provides both.
