Our end of tenancy cleaning process (what to expect)
1. Pre-clean assessment & flexible scheduling
We begin by confirming property size, any known problem areas (pets, smoking, heavy soiling) and required deadlines.
We arrange a time that fits the move-out or inventory appointment and note any landlord or agent requirements in advance. This avoids surprises on the day and keeps handovers smooth.
2. Whole-property general clean (first pass)
A consistent general clean sets the stage for targeted deep work:
- Dust and wipe all horizontal and vertical surfaces, including skirting boards, picture rails and light switches
- Vacuum carpets and rugs; sweep and mop hard floors
- Remove cobwebs and clear vents where accessible
- Clean internal glass, mirrors and window sills
- Empty bins and remove any rubbish left behind
This first pass removes loose dirt and allows the team to identify areas needing extra attention.
3. Kitchen deep-clean checklist
The kitchen is often a decisive area in inventory checks. Key tasks:
- Degrease and deep clean oven interior, grill trays and hob surfaces
- Clean extractor fan, filter (where accessible) and splashbacks
- Empty, clean and deodorise fridge/freezer interior and seals
- Wipe inside and outside of cupboards and drawers
- Sanitise worktops, sink, taps and draining areas; remove limescale and food residue
- Thoroughly clean floors and skirting in the kitchen area
We use appropriate products for different surfaces to protect worktops and appliances while removing grease and odours. For stubborn oven or fridge issues, specialist treatments are available on request.
4. Bathroom and WC deep-clean checklist
Bathrooms need specialist attention to prevent mould and ensure hygiene:
- Descale and disinfect shower trays, baths, basins and toilets
- Remove mould and mildew from grout and seals
- Clean glass shower screens and mirrors to a streak-free finish
- Wipe down cabinets, shelves and towel rails
- Vacuum and mop bathroom floors; ensure floor drains are clear
We focus on grout, seals and ventilation—common failure points at check-out. Remedial work such as re-grouting is outside a standard clean, but we will flag issues for landlords and agents.
5. Bedrooms and living areas checklist
Ensure all living spaces present well to new occupants:
- Dust and wipe furniture surfaces and built-in wardrobes (inside and out)
- Vacuum mattresses and upholstery where accessible
- Clean light fittings, switches and sockets
- Wash windows internally and clean sills and frames
- Remove marks on walls and clean doors and door frames
We handle accessible soft furnishings and advise on specialist upholstery cleaning where required. Clear, tidy rooms reduce re-let time and improve viewing impressions.
6. Additional tasks landlords commonly request
Optional or situational extras often requested at check-out:
- Steam cleaning carpets and rugs for heavy staining or odours
- Carpet spot treatment and upholstery cleaning
- Cleaning inside and behind large appliances
- Cleansing of storage cupboards, utility rooms and loft access areas (where safe)
- Garden tidy or external sweep for bins and pathways (if included in tenancy)
We quote for extras separately so you can choose the right level of service for each property. If you’re unsure which extras are needed, ask for a pre-clean assessment.
7. Final inspection and evidence
Before we finish, we carry out a room-by-room check against a digital checklist to ensure nothing is missed.
Where requested, we can provide time-stamped photos of completed areas to support handover or deposit discussions. This documentation often removes uncertainty during inventory inspections.
Standards, equipment and eco-friendly methods
We use professional-grade equipment and carefully selected cleaning products designed to be effective while limiting harsh chemicals where possible.
Eco-friendly options reduce residues and are gentler on surfaces, which tenants and landlords increasingly appreciate. Our approach balances powerful cleaning with sensible, safer product choices.
All products are chosen to protect finishes, fabrics and appliances while delivering a hygienic finish. We can discuss eco options when you Call us on 01908 260 010 or email info@yourcleanerhome.co.uk to get a quote.
