Astiq is a locally based commercial cleaning company serving Bolton, Bury and Salford.

We were created around a simple idea: outsourcing your cleaning should make running your business easier, not give you another supplier to manage.

We combine dependable cleaning with active service management, clear accountability and a more thoughtful approach to the people delivering the work.

We’re building the kind of cleaning company we’d want to work with.

BUILT AROUND THE BUSINESSES WE SERVE

Our role is to keep the cleaning aligned with the standard you expect, while keeping the day-to-day management off your plate.

Your premises influence how your team, customers and visitors experience your business. Keeping them consistently well looked after matters — but managing the cleaning shouldn’t take your attention away from everything else you’re responsible for.

Your cleaning service should support the standard you’re building.

That’s why Astiq stays involved behind the scenes: managing the people, communication, standards and day-to-day details so the cleaning supports your business quietly and reliably.

OUR APPROACH TO CLEANERS

Good service starts with the people delivering it.

Astiq doesn’t see cleaners as interchangeable labour.

We look for experienced, dependable people and carefully vet them before assigning them to client sites. We give cleaners clear expectations, the right equipment and products, and the support they need to do their work properly.

Wherever practical, we also prioritise continuity. Someone who regularly cleans the same site gets to know the routine, understands what matters and becomes familiar with the standard expected.

We want good people to want to stay.

Reliable service is difficult to build on constant staff turnover. Astiq is being designed to create a better working experience for cleaners through fair pay, respect, clear expectations, proper support and recognition for good work.

When people feel valued and supported, they’re more likely to stay, take ownership of their work and build familiarity with the sites they look after.

Good partnerships work both ways.

We’re also thoughtful about the clients we work with. Astiq is best suited to businesses that value their premises, treat the people working in them with respect and want a dependable long-term cleaning relationship.

That allows us to create a working environment where cleaners can do their job properly and clients receive a more consistent service.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Astiq was founded by Sophia Jefferson, who brings previous experience running a cleaning business in Manchester alongside a background in business management and client service.

Having seen both the operational side of cleaning and the frustrations businesses can experience when a service isn’t properly managed, she created Astiq to offer something more dependable, more accountable and easier to work with.

“I want Astiq to be the kind of company clients trust and cleaners genuinely want to work for. I believe the two go hand in hand.”
