From Humble Beginnings to High-Rise Horizons: Discover the tenacious spirit and dedication that propelled a simple squeegee and a bucket into one of the nation’s leading business-to-business cleaning and maintenance titan, CCR Maintenance.
The Foundation
Our Story
Lee, the visionary leader at the helm of CCR Maintenance, embarked on his extraordinary journey with a background in roofing. His aspirations in the roofing industry were met with the harsh reality of a recession in 1988, forcing him to pivot and follow a different path. Armed with determination and a loan of £500 from his mother, Lee ventured into the world of cleaning with nothing but a second-hand van, a roof rack, a bucket, and a trusty squeegee. This marked the humble beginnings of his venture, which he aptly named ‘Squeaky Clean Window Cleaners.
It was during these early days that Lee’s unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction began to take shape, a principle that would remain at the heart of CCR Maintenance throughout its journey. Lee’s very first house cleaning job required an astounding seven hours to complete, but this was a testament to his dedication to leaving no stone unturned in pursuit of perfection.
As Lee’s expertise in the cleaning industry grew, so did his ambitions. With the little money he inherited from his father’s estate, he made a strategic investment in a commercial water-fed pole capable of reaching dizzying heights of 60 feet. This allowed him to approach property management companies, expanding his horizons as he had a young family to support.
This commitment to family, both his own and those of his employees, became a cornerstone of CCR Maintenance. Lee and his team actively sought out individuals with strong work ethics, family values, and a shared commitment to excellence. This ethos is deeply embedded in the company’s core values today—Accountability, Integrity, and Reliability.
Through unwavering dedication and a relentless pursuit of quality, CCR Maintenance has grown into a nationwide cleaning and maintenance company, exclusively serving business-to-business clients, including some of the most prestigious blue-chip companies in the country. Lee’s unwavering insistence on adhering to the company’s core values has ensured nationwide satisfaction at every level, making CCR Maintenance the ultimate choice for clients seeking excellence in cleaning and maintenance services.

Such as Traffic Management on extremely busy main roundabout and also Pedestrian management to coincide. CCWC Services made it a painless experience at a more than competitive cost, we will definitely be using them again in the very near future.

“Cardiff City Football Club has been using the services of CCWC for a couple of years and have to say the quality of their work is second to none. Not only do they always turn up on time and as agreed but their staff work diligently, with a smile and always leave the stadium as they found it. Coupled with the fact that their admin and contact response time is excellent I would recommend other companies to use CCWC with the confidence of a first-class service!

“A big thank you to the team at CCWC Services for the brilliant job recently completed on our unit in Barry.

The works included a full strip and clean-down of the cladding on both the roof and side elevations, followed by a complete respray using Dulux Cladshield. The transformation has been remarkable — the unit now looks smart, professional, and weather-protected.
The added bonus? The Dulux Cladshield product comes with an 8-year guarantee, giving us long-term peace of mind and protection from the elements.
From the first visit to the final coat, the team was reliable, well-organised, and clearly experienced in what they do. They kept disruption to a minimum and delivered exactly what they promised, on time and to a high standard.
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend CCWC Services — top marks.
