End-of-tenancy cleaning is one of the most common reasons deductions are taken from a deposit. Whether you are a landlord preparing a property for new tenants or a tenant hoping to get your deposit back in full, a thorough clean is essential.
Kitchen
Clean inside and behind all appliances, including the oven, hob, extractor fan, fridge and washing machine. Descale the sink and taps, wipe down all cupboards inside and out, and clean the worktops and splashbacks.
Bathrooms
Descale the shower, tiles and shower screen, clean the toilet inside and out, and polish all taps and fittings. Replace any worn sealant around the bath or shower tray, and clean the extractor fan.
Living areas and bedrooms
Dust all surfaces including skirting boards, picture rails and light fittings. Vacuum and, where appropriate, steam-clean carpets. Clean marks from walls and doors, and ensure curtains or blinds are dusted and clean.
Windows and floors
Clean windows inside and out where accessible, including frames and sills. Vacuum and mop all hard floors, and pay attention to corners and edges that are easy to miss.
Why professional cleaning helps
A documented standard of cleanliness is recorded in every inventory. If the property is not returned to the same standard, a deduction can be justified. Professional end-of-tenancy cleaning ensures the property meets the recorded standard and supports a smooth deposit return.
Our end-of-tenancy cleaning service is carried out to an inventory-grade standard, so the property is returned exactly as the check-out report expects.
