About Us
1st Choice High Level Cleaning and Maintenance has evolved over the years into a commercial cleaning company which delivers a professional quality service and which prides itself on a high standard of health and safety.
Paul Coupland started the business after leaving the Royal Marines in 1990. Why did an ex-Royal Marine decide to start a cleaning business? Paul comes from a family, which over generations have worked, managed or owned their own cleaning business. During school holidays he would get a job cleaning. Whilst on leave from the Royal Marines he was asked if he could help one of the family out, they had a job where they could not reach to clean some windows. Paul was asked if he could abseil and clean windows and there the seed was sown. The skills from the Royal Marine helped develop the business from a domestic to a commercial client base, offering a unique approach to achieve what appears to be impossible.
The company started trading as a sole trader carrying out domestic window cleaning. Over the years the amount of work increased as did the client base and the decision was taken to become solely commercial cleaners. The last major change came in 2004 when the decision was made to become a limited company.
Over the years clients have approached 1st Choice with problems or work they needed carrying out. In turn, this has lead to a gradual increase in the range of services we offer today. With time and investment we have the expertise to deliver the desired results. Through training and specialist equipment staff have formed into teams who are proficient in all aspects of their work.

This commitment extends to the employees of client companies and other members of the public who may be affected by the work carried out by 1st Choice or its selected subcontractors. because of the nature of the work undertaken, safety is a prime issue for all staff of 1st Choice.
