About
The Mercury Standard: Over a Decade of Quality
Mercury Cleaning Ltd was founded in March 2012 by Gillian Cooper. Driven by a vision to provide a more personalised, reliable, and professional cleaning service for the people of Inverness, Gillian built the company from the ground up. What started as a small, dedicated team has grown into one of the most respected cleaning companies in the Highlands, known for our integrity and “client-first” philosophy.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to enhance the environments in which our clients live and work. We believe that a clean space is the foundation of a productive office and a happy home. By taking the burden of cleaning off your shoulders, we give you back the most valuable resource of all—time.
A Growing Family of Services
Growth has always been a part of the Mercury story. In 2024, recognising the unique needs of the Highlands’ thriving tourism sector, we launched Mercury Holiday Homes Ltd. This allowed us to separate our core commercial and domestic operations from our specialised holiday let services. This synergy ensures that whether you are a local resident, a corporate entity, or a holiday home investor, you are receiving expert care from a team that understands your specific market.
Our Commitment to the Highlands
As a privately owned local business, we are deeply invested in the Inverness community. We don’t just work here; we live here. This local insight allows us to provide a level of accountability and personal touch that national franchises simply cannot match. When you call Mercury Cleaning, you are speaking to a local team that cares about the reputation of your business and the comfort of your home.
