Delivering Smarter, Cost-Effective, and Less-Intrusive Office Cleaning for SQS
Tuesday 14 October, 2025
At The Callver Cleaning Co., we pride ourselves on delivering professional, reliable, and people-focused cleaning services across Watford and beyond. Our mission is simple: to help businesses enjoy practical, efficient, and cost-effective cleaning solutions that support productivity and wellbeing in the workplace.
This case study explores our partnership with SQS, a dynamic company with multiple sites across the South East. From our first consultation in January 2025 through to managing cleaning and hygiene services at their flagship Scratchwood site, this journey highlights the value of our flexible approach, our attention to detail, and the trusted relationships we build with our clients.
About the Client – SQS
SQS operates in several locations across the South East of England:
- Scratchwood, Hertfordshire (head office, J2 of the M1)
- Brentwood, Essex
- Borough Green, Kent
Their team needed a cleaning provider who could deliver consistently high standards across multiple sites, while ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations.
The Challenge – Smarter Cleaning Across Multiple Sites
When SQS first approached us in January 2025, they were looking for a partner who could make their office cleaning:
- Practical – with schedules that fit around their working hours.
- Efficient – ensuring all areas were spotless without wasted time or resources.
- Cost-effective – delivering value across multiple offices.
- Less intrusive – with cleaning carried out in a discreet, professional manner that didn’t interfere with staff productivity.
Our Approach – A Step-by-Step Partnership
Step 1: Brentwood Trial (January 2025)
Our partnership began with SQS asking us to look after their Brentwood site, with cleaning services three times per week. We developed a tailored cleaning plan that included:
- Thorough office cleaning (desks, communal areas, and meeting rooms).
- Washroom hygiene services, including sanitary bins and air fresheners.
- Regular quality checks to ensure consistency.
Feedback was positive from the start. Staff noticed an immediate improvement in cleanliness and freshness, and SQS management appreciated our efficient, low-disruption service.
Step 2: Expansion to Borough Green (Spring 2025)
Impressed by the results at Brentwood, SQS asked us to extend our services to their Borough Green office in Kent. Once again, we built a plan tailored to their needs, ensuring the same level of reliability and professionalism.
Consistency across sites was important to SQS, so we ensured:
- A dedicated cleaning team familiar with each site.
- The same high standards, supported by regular supervisor visits.
- Clear communication channels with their facilities manager.
Step 3: Flagship Scratchwood Site (May 2025)
The real milestone came in May 2025, when SQS offered us the opportunity to take on their flagship Scratchwood site, the largest in their network. This site required:
- Over 22 hours of cleaning per week.
- Comprehensive office cleaning services.
- Full female sanitary services.
- Air freshener provision for washrooms.
Our team rose to the challenge, implementing a cleaning schedule that was efficient, cost-effective, and discreet, while maintaining the same high standards we had established at their smaller sites.
The Results – A Thriving Partnership
Today, we provide SQS with cleaning and hygiene services across all three of their sites. The benefits include:
- Consistent Quality
Every SQS office now benefits from the same high standard of cleaning and hygiene, thanks to our site-specific but unified cleaning strategies. - Efficiency & Value
By streamlining our cleaning processes, we’ve ensured SQS receives maximum value from their investment, with no wasted hours or unnecessary costs. - Minimal Disruption
Our teams work efficiently and discreetly, ensuring day-to-day operations at SQS continue smoothly, without interruptions from cleaning staff. - Trusted Relationship
Our partnership has grown beyond a standard supplier-client relationship. The SQS team views us as an extension of their own operations, thanks to our proactive communication and personalised service.
What SQS Had to Say
We’re proud to share feedback from SQS’s facilities manager, who summed up our relationship perfectly:
“What a find Team Callver is. They look after us now at all 3 sites, including all our office cleaning requirements and full female sanitary service and air fresheners for washrooms. Brilliant service!”
