Most schools want a fast, low-disruption switch — and we’re built for exactly that.
We can complete a full mobilisation (including TUPE, staff induction, stock, equipment, and schedules) within 7–14 days, depending on site size.

If you need emergency cover sooner, we can step in within 24 hours where capacity allows.

Not necessarily — and not if you don’t want to.
If current cleaners are performing well, they can transfer to us under TUPE regulations.
We’ll:

• handle all paperwork

• manage the consultation

• retrain them to Mackies standards

• assign a supervisor to support them

This means continuity without the hassle.

We use a 3-layer accountability system:

1. Daily checklists completed by staff

2. Weekly supervisor audits

3. Monthly performance reporting for your records

This removes guesswork and eliminates the “was it actually cleaned?” problem most schools experience.

Yes — every single member of staff working in a school environment is:

• Enhanced DBS-checked

• ID-verified

• School-trained

• Safeguarding aware

No one steps foot on your site without full clearance.

Schools can’t wait days for cover — so we don’t operate like that.
You’ll have:

• a dedicated supervisor

• an on-call rota

• a trained local backup team

Meaning we can provide same-day cover in most cases.

Absolutely. We clean:

• After school

• Before school

• Split-shifts

• Even during the school day for high-traffic areas

We build your entire cleaning plan around your timetable, not ours.

Yes — and they’re one of our most popular services.
We offer:

• Full classroom resets

• Corridor & hall deep cleaning

• Kitchen & staff-room deep cleans

• Toilet & changing room sanitation

• High-level dusting

• Furniture, walls, doors & fixtures

Holiday deep cleans can be standalone or part of your annual contract.

You’ll have a single point of contact — your Mackies account manager.
Issues are logged, addressed, and followed-up with:

• a supervisor visit

• corrective action

• updated checklist if needed

• confirmation sent back to you

We don’t leave issues lingering for weeks.
Problems get solved same day or next day depending on severity.

We price transparently, with a breakdown of:

• Labour

• Materials

• Equipment

• Travel

• Supervision

• Annual uplift (typically 3%)

No vague estimates.
No hidden extras.
No end-of-month surprises.

Yes — we specialise in multi-site operations.

We can provide:

• unified pricing

• centralised reporting

• one invoice

• one account manager

• identical standards across all schools

This is ideal for:

• Trusts

• Federations

• Multi-campus sites

Yes — all under one contract.
We provide:

• window cleaning

• jet washing

• playground & entrance cleaning

• cladding cleaning

• gutter clearance

• car park maintenance

One partner. Inside + outside. Fully maintained school.

Three things:

1. We specialise in high-traffic environments — schools aren’t treated like offices.

2. Our systems are stronger — supervisors, reporting, and checklists.

3. You never have to chase us — communication is proactive, not reactive.

We don’t guess.
We don’t patch problems.
We deliver what others only promise.
