About The Errand Company: People & Property Care in Islington
At The Errand Company, we provide practical, reliable support that helps people care for their homes, workplaces, and everyday responsibilities with confidence. For over 13 years, we have been supporting local residents and organisations with homecare and cleaning services in Islington and North London.
We were founded on a simple belief: how a service is delivered matters just as much as what is delivered. That belief continues to shape everything we do: from the way we support elderly and vulnerable clients, to how we recruit, train, and look after our team. Our role is to make day-to-day life easier by being the trusted helping hand people can rely on, whether at home or at work.
How It All Started
The Errand Company was created after recognising a clear gap in the local market. Many services focused on either cleaning or care, but very few offered both, delivered with consistency, trust, and genuine understanding.
We saw busy professionals, families, and elderly residents struggling with the mental load of running a home or business. People didn’t just need cleaners; they needed reliable support they could trust, especially when inviting someone into their personal space.
From the beginning, our aim was to offer a more thoughtful, concierge-style approach, treating every home or workplace as if it were our own. The business has grown steadily through referrals, recommendations, and long-term relationships, with many clients staying with us for years.
What We Stand For
Our mission is simple: to give our clients their time back by providing seamless, high-quality home and commercial care.
Everything we do is guided by clear values:
Integrity
doing the right thing, even when no one is watching
Reliability
turning up on time, every time, and doing what we say we will
Personal Touch
noticing the small details that make a big difference
These values ensure our services are delivered with professionalism, empathy, and consistency, no matter the task.
A Team You Can Trust
Our team is central to everything we do. Every member of staff is carefully vetted, DBS-checked, and recruited for both skill and attitude. We invest in ongoing training, regular spot-checks, and clear communication to ensure high standards are always maintained.
Consistency matters to us. Clients know who to expect, feel comfortable welcoming our team into their space, and trust that their property is being cared for properly.
Supporting People and Properties
We support a wide range of clients looking for cleaning and homecare services in Islington and surrounding areas, including individuals, families, elderly and vulnerable residents, and local businesses.
Our services are designed to be flexible and responsive. For domestic clients, this may include regular home help, cleaning, and everyday tasks that support independence and wellbeing. For commercial clients, we provide reliable cleaning and property care that reflects the professionalism of their organisation.
A significant part of our work involves supporting elderly and vulnerable clients. Many of our team come from care backgrounds, which means our services are delivered with patience, understanding, and compassion, not just practical ability.
