Chamberlaine Cleaning Services has been recognised with one of the cleaning and facilities management industry’s highest honours, winning Best Cleaned Premises – Office Areas Between 10,000 and 30,000 Square Metres at the 2026 Kimberly-Clark Professional™ Golden Service Awards for its work at the prestigious Chelsea Barracks estate in Belgravia, London.
Established more than 30 years ago, the biennial Golden Service Awards are widely regarded as the benchmark for excellence across the FM and cleaning sectors. The awards celebrate outstanding achievements by contract cleaning companies, facilities management providers and in-house teams, recognising exceptional standards, innovation and commitment to service delivery.
The 2026 awards ceremony took place on 21 May at London’s Hilton Park Lane, bringing together more than 400 industry professionals from across the UK and Ireland. Judging was independently overseen by the British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICSc), with winners selected following a rigorous assessment process that included detailed submissions, site visits and interviews.
Chamberlaine impressed the judges with the consistently exceptional standards delivered at Chelsea Barracks, one of London’s most prestigious residential developments.
In their assessment, the judges commented: “This company has clearly set the bar high when it comes to their own cleaning standards. I did my best during the walk around to find something to comment on but they didn’t give me a chance! A fantastic job all round, very well done to all.”
The award recognises the dedication, professionalism and attention to detail demonstrated by the Chamberlaine team on site every day.
Commenting on the achievement, Morten Elstrup, Managing Director at Chamberlaine Cleaning Services, said: “We are absolutely delighted to receive this award. To be recognised on such a prestigious stage for our work at Chelsea Barracks is a tremendous honour and a reflection of the commitment shown by our teams every single day.
Awards are never won through a submission document alone. They’re earned through the early starts, the attention to detail, the quiet moments of care, the problem solving, teamwork and the consistently high standards delivered by our colleagues on site. This recognition belongs to them.”
The company also paid tribute to its client and delivery partners.
“We would like to thank the Chelsea Barracks management team and Rendall & Rittner for their trust, partnership and collaboration. Strong relationships are at the heart of great service delivery, and we are proud to work alongside organisations that share our commitment to excellence.”
The award further reinforces Chamberlaine’s reputation as a leading provider of cleaning and support services within premium workplaces and luxury residential environments. As a certified B Corp business,
the company combines high operational standards with a strong focus on people, sustainability and long-term client partnerships.
Neil Spencer-Cook, Group Managing Director of the British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICSc), praised the quality of entries across this year’s awards programme.
“The quality of the entries keeps getting stronger year by year, with the 2026 line-up pushing standards through smart forward thinking and progressive techniques. There was a clear focus on valuing staff, improving working conditions and supporting mental health, alongside a commitment to diversity and going the extra mile for clients.”
