I have always found the Company to be reliable and efficient in their business dealings and in their cleaning services. The staff the Company uses I have always found to be polite, friendly and helpful. During the time I have used Ellemby Ltd I have found that they are flexible in their approach to meet my requirements as a customer, some of which have been at very short notice.
Ellemby Ltd has held our Building Cleaning Contract since April 2006 to the present date. They have provided the Building Cleaning Contract with excellent support in the area of management, supervision, reliability, honesty, efficiency and meeting the cleaning standards outlined in the contract. We can confidently recommend Ellemby Ltd as a solid and reliable supplier, and experts in their field.
We didn’t realise quite how dirty our windows had got until Ellemby had cleaned them and we received compliments on the building. They also jet washed the paving slabs at the front of the building which made a huge difference to the exterior. They were extremely professional with great communication throughout. I would fully recommend Ellemby to anyone looking for a supplier with a quality finish and great customer service.
Slough Borough Housing Service have been using Ellemby Ltd for both window cleaning and general cleaning work for the past three years. I have always found Ellemby Ltd to be very professional in their work and very responsive to our requests.
The Company was forthcoming with cost effective suggestions for alternative cleaning solutions that met and exceeded my business requirements.
