Daryl who is originally from South Shields spent years working away from home in asbestos removal before settling in Rye, East Sussex.

Last year Daryl and Kaylee made the decision to move to South Shields and make a go of the cleaning business.

They got together with Sean and Francesca and the four of them have never looked back.

Daryl said: "I spent so much time working away and missed out on a lot with my daughter who's almost 10 that I didn't want the same for my son who's just a baby. I wanted something that was more flexible for the kids.

"The first year has been a huge success as we were determined to make it that way.

"I never want to have to work away from the kids again which is why I work so hard building up my reputation and securing work for the business."

Looking ahead to 2024 the four of them plan to continue securing more work across the borough with the possibility of expanding outside of the area.

More work would also mean the company could increase its workforce. As Cleaner Holmes is a family run business the four of them hope to offer positions to family where possible.
