Our Step-by-Step End of Tenancy Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details: property size, number of bathrooms, carpeted rooms, parking and preferred date. We provide a clear, itemised quotation, usually the same day. Prices are fixed subject to the information given, so you know in advance what you will pay.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For most SE23 properties, a short virtual survey via photos or video call is enough. For larger or heavily soiled properties, we may arrange a quick onsite visit. This allows us to confirm scope, check access, and discuss any specific concerns (for example, pets, heavy limescale or stains).
3. Preparation
We agree a date and arrival window. Before we arrive, you remove personal belongings and rubbish, defrost freezers if needed, and ensure the property is accessible. Our trained team arrives with all cleaning products, equipment and protective materials. We protect surfaces where necessary, carry out the agreed clean, then invite you or your agent to inspect before we leave wherever possible.
Transparent Pricing for End of Tenancy Cleaning in SE23
We do not use confusing pricing structures. Our charges are based on:
- Size and layout of property (number of bedrooms/bathrooms)
- Condition and level of soiling
- Optional extras such as professional carpet cleaning or deep oven cleaning
- Parking or congestion charges, if applicable
You receive a written or emailed quote before booking. There are no hidden fees: any potential additional costs (for example, extremely heavy soiling or extra appliances) are discussed and agreed in advance.
Why Use Professional End of Tenancy Cleaners Instead of DIY
Doing the clean yourself can seem cheaper, but often takes much longer and may still fall short of what landlords and inventory clerks expect. Professional cleaning gives you:
- Experienced cleaners who know exactly what is checked on inventories
- Commercial-grade products and equipment for better results on carpets, limescale and grease
- A structured checklist so key areas are not missed
- Time saved during an already stressful move
- An invoice and written confirmation of work completed, which can help with deposit discussions
In many cases, the cost of professional end of tenancy cleaning is less than typical deposit deductions for poor cleaning.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your property and belongings are protected while we work:
- Goods in transit insurance for any items we move when cleaning carpets or floors
- Public liability cover in case of accidental damage to your property
- Trained, reference-checked cleaners following clear procedures
We work to professional standards followed across the UK cleaning industry, with method statements and risk assessments available for agents, landlords and commercial clients on request.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to clean thoroughly while protecting both your property and the environment:
- Use of modern, low-residue cleaning solutions wherever suitable
- Colour-coded cloths and mops to reduce cross-contamination
- Protective covers and sliders when moving light furniture
- Efficient equipment that uses less water and energy
- Responsible disposal of any waste we generate during cleaning
Where possible, we choose products that balance effective cleaning with reduced environmental impact, without compromising on hygiene or finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does end of tenancy cleaning in SE23 cost?
Pricing depends mainly on property size, number of bathrooms and the overall condition. For example, a small one-bedroom flat will cost less than a three-bedroom house with multiple bathrooms and heavy soiling. Optional extras such as professional carpet cleaning or deep oven cleaning are itemised separately. Once we know the details and have seen photos or completed a brief survey, we provide a fixed quotation so you know exactly what to budget for, with no hidden charges added on the day.
Can you do same-day or urgent end of tenancy cleans?
Where our schedule allows, we can often help with same-day or short-notice bookings in SE23, especially outside peak periods. If you are working to a tight deadline for a checkout, let us know your dates and times when you enquire. We will be honest about what is realistic, and may suggest an early or late appointment to fit you in. While we cannot guarantee same-day availability every time, we will always try to accommodate urgent requests wherever possible.
Are you insured while working in my property?
Yes. We carry public liability cover to protect against accidental damage to your property, and goods in transit insurance for items we move while cleaning. Our cleaners are trained to handle equipment and products correctly and to work carefully around furniture and fixtures. If you are a landlord, agent or business and require copies of our insurance documentation or risk assessments, we can provide these in advance of the booking for your records and for any compliance procedures you follow.
What exactly is included in an end of tenancy clean?
Our standard service covers a full top-to-bottom clean of the property’s interior, including kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas and hallways. We clean surfaces, cupboards, skirting, internal windows, fixtures and fittings, and vacuum or mop all floors. Deep oven cleaning, professional carpet and upholstery cleaning, and internal fridge/freezer cleaning can be added on request. We follow a detailed checklist based on local inventory expectations and will highlight any variations, so you know precisely what will be done before we start.
How far in advance should I book?
For the best choice of dates, especially at the end of the month or during summer, we recommend booking your end of tenancy clean at least one to two weeks in advance. However, we understand move dates sometimes change at short notice, so we keep some flexibility where we can. If your plans are uncertain, we can pencil in a provisional slot and confirm closer to the time. The more notice you give us, the easier it is to secure your preferred day and time in SE23.
