When leaving your property/home, many things can be considered and remembered. How clean the property is is one of the most important factors; however, for some people, this is the last thing they think about when trying to move out.
This is why professional cleaning companies are here to lend a helping hand. They are here to help remove some of the stresses of moving home. We’re here to give you as many end-of-tenancy cleaning tips as possible.
So before we begin, let’s start with some facts: Is professional cleaning required at the end of tenancy? The answer is no. Most tenancy agreements do not require you. Professional cleaning after tenancy isn’t required; however, all landlords must ensure the property is up to a professional end-of-tenancy cleaning standard.
When a tenant decides to move out, the landlord’s main concern is how their property will be left. Will they leave damages? Will they leave dirt and grime that could cause damage later down the line? Will they need to pay for further professional cleaning if the tenant doesn’t have a professional end-of-tenancy cleaning team to complete end tenancy cleaning? Who pays for the end-of-tenancy cleaning?
So when a tenant signs a new tenancy agreement, there will be a section that explains a post tenancy deposit amongst the rules and regulations. This deposit must be paid before the tenant can move into the property. The landlord keeps this security deposit until the tenant decides to vacate the property.
Suppose the tenant provides a professional end-of-tenancy cleaning service. In that case, this deposit will be returned to them in full. However, if there are any damages to the property, the landlord is required to pay for further cleaning to be completed.
They will use this deposit in full or part to have the property cleaned to a high enough standard and ready for the next tenant. This covers the landlord, so they are not expected to pay for the cleaning themselves. So, you and the landlord must pay for any professional cleaning that needs to be carried out on the property before you leave.
Your tenancy agreement will also have the tenant move-out cleaning instructions. This will ensure that you are fully aware of how you’re expected to leave the property. There should be an exit clean checklist or a moving out of apartment cleaning checklist. This helps you to ensure that every part of the property is cleaned and nothing gets missed.
The landlord will come to complete a house inspection cleaning checklist and complete their landlord cleaning checklist. That should be similar to your checklist. They have to check everything to make sure nothing was missed. If they do not complete this, they won’t be able to give your deposit back fairly.
Suppose you do decide that you like to complete an end-of-tenancy cleaning yourself instead of booking a professional cleaning company. In that case, this is perfectly acceptable as long as you complete it up to standard. Printable move-out cleaning checklists are available online, so you can follow a checklist, so nothing gets missed.
So how do you clean yourself? It’s important to ensure you use all the correct products on certain surfaces. You don’t want to cause any damage. Always check the back of the bottle/ container to ensure that the product can be used safely on the surface you are cleaning. We always recommend sticking to all eco-friendly natural products, too.
These products are overall better for the environment and 100 per cent safer to use around those more delicate such as children, allergy sufferers and pets. They perform just as well, if not better than most shop-bought products and chemicals. We use all eco-friendly natural products with all of our cleaning services. We find they are the best products for removing all grease and grime.
Performing a Deep End of tenancy cleaning yourself can be very daunting and require a lot of time and effort to get a professional result. Bear this in mind when thinking about trying to complete this yourself. Our cleaning is affordable, and we always provide the best deep cleaning service possible.
Now specifically the bedroom, Deep cleaning the bedroom has so many benefits. This is where we go to relax after a long day, or it’s where we recover if we are feeling unwell. If the bedroom is dirty and dusty, this isn’t very helpful if you’re already poor. Dust can cause serious respiratory issues, especially for those who already have asthma.
Dust particles are everywhere. They float in the air all around us every time something is moved, every time you sit on the bed sheets, every time you move the curtains, dust truly gets everywhere. This is why removing it regularly is very important. Not only dust particles but bed bugs will reside in your bed sheets and mattress fibres if not regularly cleaned. Vacuuming can help keep them at bay.
However, it’s not always 100 per cent efficient. This is where we suggest booking our Professional steam cleaning service for your mattresses. Our steam cleaning can remove 99 per cent of bed bugs and kill 100 per cent of them.
Cleaning with very high temperatures allows us to kill bed bugs in their tracks. And the powerful suction of the machine will remove all first and debris that may be hidden in the deep fibres of the mattress. Paired with professional cleaning products, we can remove all staining, whether it be Urine, Blood, food and drink or even sweat stains. Because let’s be honest, everyone sweats, and most sweating is done at night while you sleep.
Professional Steam cleaning isn’t included in the price of a deep end-of-tenancy clean however can be booked at a small additional cost and performed on the same day as the main deep cleaning. Included in the deep end of tenancy cleaning service for your bedroom is simply vacuuming the mattresses.
As well as the bed, we will clean everything in the bedroom, including skirting boards, doors and door frames, door handles, light switches, Plug sockets, picture frames, furniture and decorative items, and upholstery such as curtains and blinds will be vacuumed where possible and dusted. On-suite bathrooms will need to be mentioned if they also require cleaning.
If these are included, everything will be deep cleaned, including the toilet, sink, bathtub and shower screen. We will leave no corner uncleaned. We need to be able to offer Bedroom End of tenancy cleaning on its own.
Not all tenants reside on the whole property. Some tenants simply rent the bedroom, so this is all they would be required to have cleaned at the end of their tenancy. No matter the agreement, we can cater and offer an outstanding end-of-lease cleaning service for everyone who requires it.

End-of-tenant or end-of-lease cleaning has been a trendy choice for many homes over the past years. It is the only cleaning that can provide a Deep cleaning of every space. When booking end-of-tenancy cleaning, you must do your research before deciding on a cleaning company.
Although some professional cleaning companies look legitimate and professional, this isn’t always the case. It’s straightforward to fall into the trap of a good-looking cleaning company. However, it’s imperative always to check the website or add reviews.
Previous customer reviews are the most legitimate way of determining whether a cleaning company is as good as it looks. We always advise not only to read the good reviews but also to take a moment to read the bad ones. All professional cleaning companies will have at least one bad review as it’s impossible to satisfy 100 per cent of your customers.
Negative reviews are always welcome as they help us improve our cleaning. So number one always checks reviews, good and bad. Secondly, read up about the heritage of the cleaning company.
How long have they been operational? How much experience do the cleaners have? Do they have training certificates to show this training? Call their office and ask questions about the cleaning team and their methods?
A professional cleaning company with nothing to hide will always provide honest answers and proof of trustworthiness. They will be happy to offer free information on how to rectify cleaning problems for yourself and always offer their help if unsuccessful.
Thirdly check their website for before and after pictures. All good cleaning companies will want to show off their successes with their customers, before and after pictures of stains that they have been successful in removing, nay limescale and hard built on limescale and grime that they have successfully removed.
They should have multiple examples readily available on their website for you to see. All these factors are important to consider when searching for the best cleaning company out there, and sometimes although they may appear to be the cheapest, that does not mean that they can offer you the outstanding cleaning that you deserve and require.
We are all too often called to rectify the awful cleaning that some of the cheaper cleaning companies have provided. We’ve seen awful cleaning that has not been up to the landlord’s standard of cleaning, and not only does this slow the process of moving out it also costs you, the tenant, or the additional landlord costs that are not always an option for some families, especially when they already have the stress and cost of moving home.
Some cheap cleaning companies have even been known to cause more damage to surfaces and property by using incorrect cleaning products or simply cheap and harsh cleaning chemicals around your home.
We can assure you this is not something we would ever allow from our cleaning team. This is why we have our full insurance in place because, let’s face it, sometimes small damages could occur, but our full insurance will cover these and we will have these issues fixed and mended at the quickest convenience.
