homes cleaned across the Cape Peninsula this year
The numbers are quiet. So are our teams.

Point walkthrough checklist
Operations Manager
Nadia Hendricks
Gleam Cape Town
"Our three-tier methodology isn't about upselling — it's about matching the intervention to the home. An Essential clean sustains. A Deep clean restores. An Estate clean leaves no evidence that dust was ever a possibility."
Every team follows a 22-point walkthrough checklist before leaving a property. Points 18 through 22 are what separate us from every other service on the Peninsula — they cover art frames, window track grooves, appliance undersides, and the two centimetres behind tap fixtures that no one photographs but everyone notices.

Senior Team Leader
Thabo Mokoena
Gleam Cape Town — Constantia & Bishopscourt
"I've been leading teams in Constantia and Bishopscourt for four years. The clients here don't tell you what they want — they show you by what they notice. A smear on the stovetop glass. A single hair in the basin. We operate to that standard every day, not just on inspections."
Before any team leaves a property, I do a final light-angle check — walking the rooms with morning or afternoon light at a low angle to catch anything that a head-on inspection misses. Dust shows at 15 degrees. So does a great clean.
43
Units across Camps Bay & Clifton
Short-Term Rental Manager
Caitlin Pretorius
Camps Bay Portfolio — 40+ Units
"I manage 43 short-term rental units across Camps Bay and Clifton. Gleam handles every turnover clean between noon and three — the three-hour window that determines whether a guest's first impression is "premium" or "adequate." In 18 months, I've never had to send a team back."
The consistency is the product. My guests don't see the team — they see the result. Towel folds, pillow alignment, the absence of the previous guest's existence. Gleam understands that invisibility is the highest form of service.

Suburbs served
I gave them a key after the third visit. That's the only review that matters.
Samantha du Plessis
Homeowner, Constantia
My Airbnb went from 4.7 to 4.9 stars within two months of switching to Gleam. Guests kept mentioning the cleanliness specifically.
Riyaad Isaacs
Host, De Waterkant
We manage 12 properties in Bishopscourt. Gleam is the only service that has never required a call-back. Not once.
