A FAMILY-RUN, eco-friendly cleaning business has recently expanded into Taunton and the surrounding areas.

The new Vapor Clean branch will operate from a new office on Wellington New Road.

The business was founded by Lee Keet in 2012 after discovering Vapor Steam technology, which sparked his passion for eco-friendly cleaning solutions.

From his beginnings as a hands-on cleaning technician, he built his company by focusing on sustainable practices and the growing demand for environmentally conscious cleaning services.

“I know what it's like to be a cleaner, to be judged and told to use the back door, what it's like to scrape sick off a toilet seat.

“I also know the great feeling you can get when you deliver a great clean and the customer gives great feedback.

“Even now I will still roll my sleeves up and get stuck in, and I'll still be doing it in 10 years' time,” he said.

Vapor Clean’s latest expansion enables coverage of a larger portion of the South West, including Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, Weston-super-Mare, and now Taunton, along with their surrounding areas.

By recruiting local cleaning technicians and operatives, the expansion contributes to an increase in local job opportunities.

Lee also said: "We are so pleased to be able to expand our service offering to Taunton and Surrounding areas.

“We have been asked by a number of customers to cover this location but never felt the time was right.

“With the growth of the leadership team, technicians and cleaning operatives just on the up we have felt now is the right time".
