Clean Sweep Commercial provides expert school and college cleaning services in Retford, covering both term-time routines and out-of-term deep cleans. A hygienic, well-maintained environment is essential for the health, focus, and success of students and staff, and we're here to deliver exactly that. Our uniformed, DBS-checked cleaning operatives are trained to work safely around children and are closely supervised to ensure consistency in their work. Every clean is logged, checked, and verified using Sentinel, our cloud-based audit platform, which provides quality control and compliance with health and safety standards.

A primary school in Retford needed professional cleaning but had limited budget flexibility. We built a tailored schedule that combined daily essentials with periodic deep cleans during holidays, ensuring hygiene standards without overspending. The school praised the balance of cost and quality, saying they finally had “best value, not just cheapest price.”

Out-of-Term Deep Cleans That Get Your Retford School Ready to Reopen

School holidays are the ideal time for intensive deep cleaning, but that isn't possible during busy term time. While your site is empty, our DBS-checked operatives carry out a comprehensive reset, including machine-scrubbed floors and carpet steam cleaning, as well as high-level dusting, washroom sanitisation, and kitchen deep cleaning. We also disinfect shared spaces, such as libraries, halls, and canteens, ensuring your school reopens in a clean, safe, and inspection-ready condition. With no pupils or staff on-site, we can work more thoroughly and efficiently, and it's the perfect time to catch wear-and-tear issues before they become costly repairs. Every clean follows a tailored checklist and meets all health, safety, and safeguarding standards, so when the new term starts, your school is already ahead.

Sentinel cleaning system with GPS check in and audit trail for Retford schools and colleges

School Cleaning You Can Track and Trust

At Clean Sweep Commercial, school cleaning should be transparent, accountable, and fully verifiable. That's why we use Sentinel, our bespoke cloud-based auditing system designed specifically for schools and colleges. Every visit is digitally logged. Our team leaders check in and out on-site with accurate GPS and timestamp data. Meanwhile, photo evidence, task-specific checklists, and personalised notes are uploaded in real time. From classrooms to corridors, shared areas to toilets, you'll always know what's been cleaned when it was done, and by whom. Each clean is signed off with a verified digital signature.

This school was frustrated by recurring issues — bins left full, washrooms below standard, and inconsistent results from their old contractor. We introduced DBS-vetted staff with a detailed cleaning plan and used Sentinel™ logbooks to track every visit. Within a term, staff reported that complaints had stopped, and the site manager said it was the first time cleaning felt “reliable and accountable.”
