See open exterior cleaning tenders and awarded contracts for the UK public sector.

Exterior cleaning procurement covers facade cleaning on civic buildings, university campuses and housing, including stonework cleaning and repair on heritage buildings. Gutter clearance and window cleaning sometimes sit in the same contract. Train fleet cleaning uses the same words but is a separate trade.

Councils, housing associations and universities commission exterior cleaning, mostly as one-off works contracts and sometimes as separate lots within a single appointment.
