Homes, water and lets in City Centre
Much of the centre's office space grew out of derelict port land. The IFSC opened in 1987 on an 11-hectare site at the North Wall and had grown to 37.8 hectares by 2018. By 2008 the wider Docklands held more than 599 enterprises. South of the Liffey, the old gasworks at Grand Canal Dock became 80,000 m² of offices and 1,200 apartments, now hosting the European headquarters of Google, Facebook and LinkedIn. Tech firms there employed about 7,000 people by 2015. Each of those floors needs office cleaning outside working hours, daily or weekly.
Homes in the centre are mostly apartments, and more are coming. The Docklands planning scheme approved in 2014 allows 2,600 homes beside 366,000 m² of offices in the North Lotts and Grand Canal Dock. Many blocks are owned at scale: in Dublin, landlords with 100 or more tenancies held 26% of private tenancies at the end of 2024, according to the RTB annual report. So end of tenancy cleans here are often booked by an agent, several at once, against one inspection list. Apartments on Hanover Quay and at Spencer Dock also have balcony glass and large windows that agents check closely. Student flats near Trinity College and the north inner city add a second peak when the academic year ends.
City flats are not hard-water homes. Leixlip, the hardest of Dublin's sources, mainly supplies Fingal and reaches only the north fringe of the city. The southern plants produce water of about 50 mg/l, according to South Dublin County Council. What builds up instead is grease in open-plan kitchens with weak extraction, fine dust from traffic and nearby building sites, and condensation in apartments where windows stay shut. Those are the areas we spend time on at a city centre handover. Building managers often set rules for bin stores, lifts and shared corridors, so send any house rules with the booking.
How a booking in City Centre works
For an office, tell us the floor area, the number of washrooms and kitchens, and the hours the building is open to contractors. Larger contracts start with a site survey. For an apartment, send the block, the floor and how keys or fobs are collected, and we confirm a fixed price.
Dublin City Council area: new tenancies averaged €2,191 a month in the RTB Rent Index for Q4 2025, against €2,232 for Dublin as a whole.

Cleaning in City Centre: questions
How much does office cleaning cost in Dublin city centre?
Dublin Cleaners charges €30 an hour for office cleaning in Dublin city centre, and each visit is at least two hours. So a two-hour evening clean of a small IFSC suite costs €60. Larger floors and contracts start with a site survey, and the rate includes any VAT due.
Can you clean our office before or after working hours?
Yes. Most city centre offices want cleaning outside the working day, so visits are set for early morning or evening on agreed days. Tell us when the building opens to contractors and how the team gets in, and the schedule is built around that.
Do you clean apartments in Docklands build-to-rent blocks?
Yes. End of tenancy and deep cleans in IFSC, Spencer Dock and Grand Canal Dock blocks are a regular job. Agents can book several units together. Send the inspection checklist used by the building, and the clean is worked against it room by room.
Do you do short-let changeovers in the city centre?
Yes. A changeover covers the kitchen, bathroom, floors and beds between guests, with linen supplied at extra cost. Short-term letting in Dublin has its own planning and registration rules, which are the owner's responsibility to check before taking bookings.
Where does your team park in the city centre?
It depends on the building. Many blocks have a loading bay, a car park space for contractors or a visitor permit. Tell us what your building offers when you book, because parking and access time are planned into the job and its price.
