Professional Cleaning for GP Surgeries in Lyme Regis
A fully managed cleaning service for GP surgeries and medical practices across Lyme Regis and West Dorset — with dedicated supervision, consistent clinical standards, reliable cover and a single point of accountability.
Cleaning for GP surgeries in Lyme Regis
A GP surgery is one of the most high-footfall, high-risk environments a cleaning team will work in. Waiting rooms, consulting rooms, treatment areas and staff facilities all require different standards — and all of them fall under the scrutiny of infection control requirements and external inspections.
Cleaning South West is a family-run commercial cleaning business serving GP surgeries and medical practices across Lyme Regis and West Dorset. Founded by Ollie and Dominique Bailhache, we bring genuine hands-on experience of clinical environments — and a management structure to match. We are based in East Devon, which puts Lyme Regis well within our regular service area.
Every surgery we work with gets a structured service, a dedicated account manager and the reassurance that standards are being actively monitored — not just assumed.
In a GP surgery, an inconsistent clean is never just untidy. It carries real infection control risk and can directly affect how your practice presents during any inspection or audit.
Common challenges we solve
Cleaning schedules not aligned to clinical priorities — high-risk areas treated the same as low-risk ones
Inconsistent standards across consulting rooms, waiting areas and staff facilities
No formal supervision or quality assurance — standards drift without anyone noticing
Cover gaps when cleaners are absent, leaving practice managers to scramble for solutions
Practice management carrying the burden of monitoring and chasing cleaning performance
Increased risk of a poor impression during inspections or infection control reviews
Our practice manager shouldn't need to check whether the consulting rooms have been cleaned properly. That oversight should sit with our cleaning provider — not with us.
Our approach
Full site assessmentWe map your surgery before we begin — consulting rooms, treatment areas, waiting room, toilets and staff spaces — assigning cleaning priorities to each
Clinically structured schedulesCleaning tasks built around infection control requirements and your surgery's daily workflow — not a generic checklist
Professional supervisionRegular onsite management visits and quality checks — consistent and documented so standards never slide unnoticed
Single point of contactA dedicated account manager handles everything — scheduling, quality, communication and any issues that arise
Rigorously vetted operativesEvery cleaner completes our five-stage vetting process — phone interview, references, ID checks, home visit and insurance verification
Reliable cover as standardAbsence covered without you needing to lift a finger — planned leave or sudden sickness, your surgery is always staffed
Ongoing performance monitoringWe track standards continuously and address issues before they escalate — you are kept informed, not left guessing
Correct products and safe practicesAppropriate cleaning products used throughout, with safe working practices maintained at all times — suited to a clinical environment
We have been providing managed cleaning services to medical and clinical environments across East Devon and West Dorset for over six years. A GP surgery deserves more than a cleaner who turns up and hopes for the best. It deserves a managed service — structured, supervised and accountable from day one.

Reliable cover — no gaps, no last-minute scrambles, no surprises
Consistent quality monitoring that supports inspection readiness and gives your team genuine peace of mind
