Nova Clean

What Nova Clean does

Nova Clean is a French private cleaning services platform founded in 2015 by managing director Sébastien Huck, operating as a network that connects customers with vetted partner cleaning companies contracted to operate under the NOVA CLEAN® brand across all French metropolitan departments, overseas territories, and Monaco. The company positions itself as France's #1 cleaning network and the country's first internet platform dedicated to cleaning services, with a service catalog spanning approximately 25 distinct lines grouped into extreme cleaning (post-death, suicide, homicide, Diogenes syndrome, crime scenes, squats, disasters), professional disinfection, clearance/debarrass, residential housekeeping, commercial/industrial cleaning, exterior services (roofs, facades, solar panels, pools), pest control, and humidity/mold treatment.

The technical foundation is process-based rather than software-based: validated protocols under French disinfection standard NF T 72-281, certified DASRI (infectious medical waste) management with full traceability, and structured training including a crime scene and suicide cleaning certification completed by the managing director through W2 Formation Conseil (PACA). The platform uses professional-grade industrial cleaning equipment, steam machines, and HEPA filtration rather than proprietary technology assets. Operations are supported by a staffed phone intake (09 80 40 58 74), email, and web quote request forms, with same-day free quotes and a 7-day service calendar.

The business model is a partner-network franchise: Nova Clean acts as the demand-aggregation layer and brand, routing inquiries to a single designated partner company per department. Revenue is generated through professional cleaning services billed on a quote-based, pay-as-you-go basis with no publicly disclosed price points. Customers span individual homeowners, social housing providers, retail chains (SPAR), municipal governments (Mairie de la Valette), and industrial/logistics facilities, with named recurring engagements such as a weekly 930 m² logistics center contract. The company is privately held with no funding rounds, no parent company, and no disclosed revenue.
