Saubere Sache
The following is an excerpt from a marketing website for a company that sells tiles and I am stumped at the meaning of the idiomatic phrase here (surrounded with asterisks):
Von der Beratung vor Ort bis hin zur termingerechten und fachmännische Verlegung durch Profis – ***einfach eine saubere Sache!***
Do they mean something along the lines of "simply a well-run/professional thing?"
Thank you in advance.

: Does CL5 mean you believe this is the best possible translation? That there's no "Luft nach oben"?

: Like "clean cut", not so sure about "affair", possible negative connotation. Do you really want an affair with tiles? How about charm/case to keep the alliteration?
