Tenancy handovers

End of tenancy cleaning in London

Move-out and move-in cleaning for landlords, letting agents and property managers, from £150 per assessed property or visit with a minimum allocation of 5 total operative hours. Two operatives working 2.5 hours each count as 5 operative hours. We work room by room against an agreed handover checklist and flag maintenance issues before the next tenancy. One standard single-cavity oven interior is included in the agreed clean and never charged twice. Carpet extraction, specialist ovens, heavy contamination, mould treatment and waste clearance are quoted separately. The final price and scope are confirmed in writing before booking.

Planning your service

Prepare for your end of tenancy clean

A clear room-by-room checklist helps tenants, landlords and letting agents agree the cleaning needed for a property handover. Share the condition and timing of the property before requesting a quotation.

Agree the cleaning checklist

List the kitchen and appliances, bathrooms, internal glass, cupboards, skirting boards and floors. Flag heavy grease, limescale, staining or areas that need particular attention. Oven cleaning is normally included; confirm the agreed appliance scope in your quote. Carpet extraction, external windows and waste clearance are optional extras.

What changes the quotation?

Property size, bathrooms, current condition, furnishings and requested extras affect the time and price. Send photographs, the postcode and any check-out cleaning list you want us to consider. We confirm the agreed work in writing. Repairs, damaged finishes and items requiring specialist treatment need separate assessment.

Arrange access and the handover date

Tell us your move-out or handover date and preferred cleaning window so availability can be checked. Clear personal belongings and empty cupboards and appliances where possible. Water and electricity must be available. Confirm keys, parking and whether furniture remains, as these affect access to surfaces.

Review the agreed work

We work against the agreed scope and flag maintenance issues noticed during the clean. Request a photo record when arranging the service if you need one for the handover. Cleaning does not repair wear or damage, and we cannot guarantee an inventory outcome or the return of a tenancy deposit.

Before the visit

Frequently asked questions

Short answers to what clients usually ask us before booking this service.

What should an end of tenancy cleaning checklist include?

Agree the kitchen and appliances, bathrooms, internal glass, cupboards, skirting boards and floors, plus any specific areas needing attention. Share your handover checklist before booking so the quotation can identify included tasks and optional extras.

How do I get an end of tenancy cleaning quote in London?

Send your postcode, property size, number of bathrooms, photographs, preferred date and whether furniture or belongings remain. Include any extra carpet, external-window or clearance work. We confirm the scope and price in writing, and availability is checked before the booking is confirmed.

Does the property need to be empty?

Ideally yes. An empty property lets us clean every surface; where furniture remains we clean around it and note this on the report.

Are ovens, carpets and windows included?

Oven cleaning is normally included. Carpet cleaning and external window cleaning are optional extras — tell us when you request the quote.

Will water and electricity be needed on site?

Yes, both need to be switched on so we can complete the clean properly.

How do I get a price?

Use the instant estimate for an indicative figure, or request a confirmed written quotation — we normally reply within one working day.

Are you insured and checked?

Yes. We are fully insured, enhanced DBS checked, a registered waste carrier and COSHH and manual handling trained.
