About Polished Scot

PolishedScot is an Edinburgh-based cleaning company, established in 2014 by Tomek Durlak. We provide a range of high-quality cleaning services for commercial, retail and residential clients. We also provide cleaning services to healthcare providers, such as GP surgeries, veterinary surgeries and dental practices where the standard of cleaning is required to be extremely high.

At PolishedScot we regard our staff as our greatest asset.   Looking after our employees results in staff loyalty and is reflected in the service we extend to clients.   We receive many referrals from loyal customers who value our services and our team.  

We are part of the Living Wage initiative, ensuring our staff are paid a higher than average pay rate for this industry, known as the Living Wage.   Customers find it reassuring that all staff are PVG (disclosure) checked for peace of mind.  In addition, we are fully insured for up to £5m in Public and Products Liability Insurance. 

Our clients choose us because their service is tailored to suit their needs and because we pride ourselves on high quality cleaning, with attention to detail.  We are often told our cleaning service exceeds our customers’ expectations. They feel confident and assured that they can leave cleaning in our capable hands, allowing them to concentrate on their core business and family life.
