Cleaners among the most in demand trade across the UK
14 February 2022
THE DEMAND for cleaners has increased exponentially over the last few years, with COVID-19 and the resulting restrictions becoming prominent in our day to day lives.
Whether it’s workplaces or home - the public and companies have become much more conscious of cleanliness and keeping germs at bay, by deep cleaning office spaces or regular weekly cleans in the home.
With this in mind the business comparison experts at Bionic have created a UK Trade Index to help support the growing local trade economy.
The Bionic trade index looked at 10 of the highest populated cities in the UK outside of London, to find the trade jobs available and the average salary per trade in each city. London was omitted from the index to avoid skewing the results because of the sheer size and density of the capital’s population.

As thousands of trade businesses are riding a wave of growth off of the back of the pandemic, they’ve also seen opportunity on social sharing app TikTok.

Companies specialising in cleaning are no stranger to this - the hashtag '#cleaningbusiness' alone has now received over 7.3 million views on TikTok.
