Who Our Service Is For
Renters & Students
If you are moving out of a flat, house or student accommodation, our service is designed to help you leave the property clean, presentable and ready for inspection. We work to inventory check-out standards and focus on the areas most likely to cause deposit deductions.
Homeowners
Whether you are selling your home or handing it back at the end of a lease, a professional clean ensures the property is left in a respectful condition for the next occupiers and can help with smooth completion and key handover.
Landlords & Letting Agents
We support landlords, property managers and agents who need consistent, reliable professional cleaning between tenancies. Our team can work to your existing checklist or provide our own. We are experienced in coordinating keys, access and tight turnaround times.
Businesses & Commercial Tenants
For offices, studios and small commercial units, we provide end of lease cleans to meet contractual obligations. We clean kitchens, toilets, staff areas and general workspaces so the premises can be handed back in a compliant, presentable state.
Local Expertise in London
Deep Deep Cleaning operates across London, working with a wide range of tenants, landlords and agents. We understand local expectations, typical inventory standards and the time pressure often involved in London moves. Our teams are familiar with accessing managed blocks, parking restrictions and key collection arrangements, helping the clean run smoothly with minimal disruption.
Step-by-Step End of Tenancy Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us with your property details: location, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, whether you need extras such as carpet cleaning, and your move-out date. We provide a clear, itemised quote with no hidden fees. Where possible, we confirm a fixed price based on property size and condition, subject to fair usage and access.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For standard properties, we can usually assess requirements through photos or a brief virtual tour. For larger or heavily used properties, we may recommend a short onsite visit. This allows us to spot any heavy limescale, grease build-up, mould or damage that may need extra attention and ensure we allocate the right time and team.
3. Preparation Before We Arrive
To achieve the best results, we ask that:
- The property is fully or mostly vacated
- Personal belongings and rubbish are removed
- Fridges and freezers are emptied and defrosted (if to be cleaned inside)
- Parking or building access is arranged in advance where needed
On the day, our trained cleaners arrive with all necessary equipment and materials. We work methodically through each room, following the agreed checklist and addressing any agreed priority areas.
Transparent Pricing
We believe in clear pricing with no surprises. Our end of tenancy cleaning is usually priced per property size (for example, studio, 1 bed, 2 bed, etc.), with adjustments only for unusual condition or additional services. The price you receive in your written quote will clearly state what is included and any optional extras you have requested.
Factors that may affect the price include:
- Number of rooms and bathrooms
- Presence of balconies, extra rooms or utility areas
- Level of soiling, grease or limescale build-up
- Requested add-ons such as carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning
Before we confirm your booking, you will know exactly what you are paying for and what standard of clean to expect.
Why Choose Professional End of Tenancy Cleaning Over DIY?
Many tenants start cleaning themselves, only to find that it takes far longer and requires more specialist products than expected. DIY efforts often miss small but important details such as skirting boards, extractor fans, limescale around taps or marks on walls and doors, which are the very areas inventory clerks tend to check.
Our professional team uses trade-grade cleaning solutions, proven checklists and systematic methods to deliver a thorough, consistent finish. This helps reduce the risk of disputes, repeat cleaning visits and deposit deductions. It also frees your time to focus on packing, moving and setting up your next home.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Deep Deep Cleaning operates to strong professional standards so you can book with confidence. We carry appropriate public liability cover and goods in transit insurance for equipment and materials we bring to site. Our cleaners are trained in safe product use, careful handling of fixtures and fittings, and respectful behaviour in occupied and vacant properties.
We follow clear risk assessments and use method statements tailored to residential and light commercial settings. Where building management rules apply, we cooperate with any site requirements to ensure safety and compliance.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to balance effective cleaning with responsible practices. On every job we:
- Use appropriate protection on delicate surfaces where needed
- Avoid harsh abrasion on tiles, glass and worktops
- Choose efficient cleaning products and equipment to minimise waste
- Use concentrated chemicals and refillable bottles to reduce packaging
- Dispose of waste in line with local regulations
Where suitable, we select low-odour or eco-friendlier products, particularly in properties where children or vulnerable occupants may be returning. Our aim is a clean, fresh property without unnecessary impact on surfaces or the environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does end of tenancy cleaning cost?
Pricing depends mainly on the size and condition of the property, plus any extras you choose, such as carpet cleaning. As a guide, a studio or small one-bedroom flat will cost less than a larger family home with multiple bathrooms. After you share basic details and any photos, we provide a clear, fixed quote outlining exactly what is included. There are no hidden fees, and any optional add-ons are itemised separately so you can decide what suits your budget and tenancy agreement.
Can you provide same-day or urgent end of tenancy cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we can often help with same-day or short-notice bookings, especially in central locations. Availability will depend on property size, access and how many cleaners are needed. The more information you can give us at enquiry stage, the quicker we can confirm whether we can meet your timescale. If we cannot offer same-day, we will suggest the earliest alternative slot and may be able to prioritise key areas to align with your check-out appointment.
Are you insured for end of tenancy cleaning work?
Yes. Deep Deep Cleaning carries public liability cover to protect against accidental damage to the property, along with goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials. Our cleaners are trained to work carefully around fixtures, fittings and appliances, and we operate clear procedures for reporting any pre-existing issues we spot. Full details of our insurance cover can be provided on request, and we are happy to liaise with landlords or agents if they need confirmation before work starts.
What exactly is included in your end of tenancy cleaning service?
Our standard service covers a full top-to-bottom clean of kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living spaces and hallways. This includes dusting, wiping, descaling of sanitaryware, degreasing of kitchen surfaces and oven exterior, internal window cleaning where accessible, and vacuuming and mopping of all floors. Inside cupboards and wardrobes are cleaned if emptied. Items such as professional carpet or upholstery cleaning, external window cleaning and heavy appliance dismantling are not included as standard but can often be added for an additional cost if agreed in advance.
How far in advance should I book my end of tenancy clean?
For the best choice of dates and start times, especially at month-end or during peak moving seasons, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance. That said, we understand that completion dates and check-out appointments can move, so we always try to offer some flexibility. If your dates are still provisional, we can pencil you in and confirm closer to the time. The key is to contact us as soon as you know roughly when you will need the clean so we can plan appropriately.
