Our Step-by-Step End of Tenancy Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

Contact us by phone, email or our online form with your address, property size, number of bathrooms and any add-ons you require. We provide a clear, itemised quotation with no hidden extras. Pricing is normally based on property type and condition, not the clock, so you know exactly what you will pay.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For most homes, we can assess requirements via a short virtual survey using photos or video. For larger or more complex properties, we may recommend an onsite visit. This allows us to understand the condition of carpets, bathrooms, oven and limescale so we can allocate the right time, team and equipment and confirm the final price before work begins.

3. Preparation

We ask that the property is empty of personal belongings and rubbish on the day of cleaning. Our team arrives on time, fully equipped with professional materials and machinery. We walk through the property with you or your representative (where possible) to confirm the agreed scope, highlight any pre-existing damage and prioritise areas of concern.

4. Detailed Cleaning

Our cleaners work methodically through the property, following our end of tenancy checklist. High-traffic areas, bathrooms and kitchen are given particular attention. Any additional pre-booked services such as carpet cleaning or deep oven cleaning are carried out at this stage.

5. Final Checks & Handover

Once work is complete, the team leader performs a final inspection. Where practical, we invite you or your representative to walk round to confirm you are happy. We can provide an invoice and work summary for your records or for your letting agent if required.

Transparent Pricing

We believe in clear, up-front pricing. Our end of tenancy cleaning services are usually priced per property, taking into account:

• Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
• Overall size and layout
• Current condition and any heavy soiling
• Optional extras such as carpet cleaning or oven cleaning

We do not use low headline prices only to add fees later. Your quotation sets out exactly what is included and any optional costs. If the specification changes (for example, if furniture remains or extra rooms are added), we always discuss pricing with you before proceeding.

Why Choose Professional End of Tenancy Cleaning Over DIY?

While it is possible to clean a property yourself, there are several reasons many tenants, landlords and agents in Brixton choose a professional service:

• We use commercial-grade products and equipment that deliver deeper results, especially on carpets, limescale and grease.
• Trained cleaners follow a structured checklist aligned with typical inventory standards.
• You save time during an already busy moving period.
• A professional invoice and detailed clean can help reduce the risk of deposit deductions and disputes.
• Our teams spot areas that are routinely missed in DIY cleans, such as behind appliances and high-level dusting.

Insurance and Professional Standards

As a local Brixton company, we take responsibility seriously. We are fully covered with:

• Public liability cover – protecting you and your property while we work on-site.
• Goods in transit insurance – covering any items we transport or remove as part of an agreed service.
• Trained cleaning teams – staff are properly inducted in chemicals, equipment and safe working practices.

Our procedures are designed to minimise risk, from careful use of solutions on delicate surfaces to colour-coded cloths that prevent cross-contamination between kitchens and bathrooms.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every property as if it were our own. That means:

• Using appropriate protection on floors where machinery is used
• Testing cleaning products on small, discreet areas before full application
• Ventilating rooms well to ensure safe, comfortable re-entry

Where possible, we choose products that are effective yet responsible, reducing harsh chemical use without compromising on hygiene. We aim to minimise waste by measured use of materials and by maintaining equipment efficiently so it performs well for longer. Our approach balances a high standard of cleanliness with a considered, sustainable mindset.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does end of tenancy cleaning in Brixton cost?

Pricing depends on property size, condition and any extra services you choose. A typical one-bedroom flat will usually cost less than a large family house with multiple bathrooms and carpets that need deep cleaning. We provide fixed quotations in advance, based on your specific property details, so there are no surprises on the day. If you share basic information and a few photos, we can normally quote without a visit. All quotes clearly state what is included and any optional add-ons.

Can you do same-day or urgent end of tenancy cleans?

We understand that moves do not always go to plan, and urgent cleans are sometimes needed at short notice. Where our schedule allows, we can often accommodate same-day or next-day bookings in Brixton, particularly outside peak weekends and month-end periods. The sooner you contact us, the more likely we can fit you in and allocate the right size team. For urgent work, it helps if the property is completely cleared and parking arrangements are in place before we arrive.

Are you insured if something is damaged during cleaning?

Yes. We carry public liability cover to protect your property and the building while we work, and goods in transit insurance for any items we transport as part of an agreed service. Our cleaners are trained to handle surfaces and fixtures carefully, and incidents are rare, but if something does go wrong we follow a clear reporting and resolution process. We also record pre-existing damage during our initial walk-through so there is no confusion after the clean.

What is included in your end of tenancy cleaning service?

Our standard service focuses on leaving the property clean, hygienic and ready for inspection. That includes kitchen surfaces, cupboards, hob and appliances exteriors; full bathroom descaling and sanitising; thorough vacuuming and mopping; dusting of skirtings, sills and ledges; and internal window cleaning where accessible. Inside cupboards and wardrobes are cleaned if they are empty. Optional extras, such as carpet cleaning, deep oven cleaning and upholstery or rug cleaning, can be added to create a more comprehensive package tailored to your tenancy requirements.

How far in advance should I book my end of tenancy clean?

To secure your preferred date and time, especially at month end and weekends, we recommend booking 1–2 weeks in advance. This gives us time to arrange a virtual survey if needed and ensure the right team and equipment are reserved for your property. That said, we regularly help clients with shorter notice periods and will always try to accommodate you where our schedule allows. The most important thing is to contact us as soon as you know your check-out date so we can plan around it.
