As a landlord, arranging a property clean for a tenant moving out can seem like a headache. You’ve got to find a professional cleaning company, figure out what you want them to do and ensure everything is up to standard before the next tenant moves in, and this can be an even bigger headache when the previous tenant has left a mess.
But what does end of tenancy cleaning include? And how much does a full house cleaning service cost?
What happens during a deep cleaning house service?
The end of tenancy cleaning company you have hired will arrive within the time frame you arranged when booking. You don’t have to be present for the cleaning – you can take this opportunity to run errands or get some work done.
The cleaners will start by looking at their cleaning checklist, which has been agreed with you ahead of time, to see what jobs you want them to do, whether that’s carrying out an end of tenancy carpet clean, washing the walls or cleaning the windows.
Then they will get cracking with the end of tenancy deep clean, starting at the top of a room and working their way down. This is so that any dust and debris will fall on the floor, to be cleaned away at the end.
Typically, an end of tenancy cleaning checklist will include tasks such as:
- Cleaning the oven
- Clearing any cobwebs from ceilings and corners
- Washing the walls
- Cleaning sockets and light switches
- Cleaning the carpet
- Vacuuming everywhere
- Mopping the floors
- Cleaning windows
- Cleaning white goods
- Cleaning the toilets and bathrooms
- Polishing any wooden fittings
- Cleaning out and disinfecting cupboards
- Cleaning out and disinfecting the fridge/freezer
This can, of course, vary and include other tasks, depending on your needs.
