Step-by-Step End of Tenancy Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details: property type, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, whether you need carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning, and your move-out date. We provide a clear estimate, explain what is included and answer any questions about standards and timing.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For most properties, photos or a short virtual walkthrough are enough for us to confirm the quotation. For larger or heavily soiled properties, we may recommend a brief onsite survey. This helps us allocate the right number of cleaners and the correct equipment.
3. Preparation
Before the team arrives, we ask that the property is emptied of personal belongings and rubbish, with fridges/freezers defrosted if they are to be cleaned internally. On the day, our trained cleaners walk through the property, plan the order of work, protect flooring where needed and then carry out the full clean from top to bottom.
Pricing: How We Charge for End of Tenancy Cleaning
We prefer transparent, property-based pricing rather than charging by the hour, so you know the cost in advance. Prices are based on:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Overall size and condition of the property
- Whether you add carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning
- Any specific requirements from your landlord or agent
Once quoted and agreed, we honour that price unless the scope of work changes (for example, if the property is significantly more soiled than advised). We explain all charges clearly, with no hidden extras for standard tasks such as ovens or internal windows.
Why Choose Professional End of Tenancy Cleaning Instead of DIY
While it is possible to clean a property yourself, professional end of tenancy cleaning offers several advantages:
- Professional equipment and cleaning solutions for more effective results
- Experience with stubborn limescale, grease and built-up dirt
- Systematic approach to meet inventory checklists
- Time savings at an already stressful point in the move
- Reduced risk of deposit deductions for cleaning issues
Our teams follow a structured process and know exactly where agents tend to focus. This attention to detail is difficult to replicate when you are also trying to manage packing, removals and utilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does end of tenancy cleaning in Harringay cost?
Pricing depends mainly on the size and condition of the property, plus any extras such as carpet cleaning. As a guide, a small one-bedroom flat will cost less than a large family house that needs more time and materials. We provide a clear, fixed quotation once we know the number of rooms, bathrooms and any specific requirements from your landlord or agent. There are no hidden fees for standard tasks like oven or internal window cleaning, and we always confirm the total before you commit.
Can you provide same-day or urgent end of tenancy cleaning?
Where our schedule allows, we do offer same-day or short-notice appointments in Harringay, particularly outside peak moving periods. The more notice you can give, the better the chance we can match your preferred date and time, but we understand that move-out dates sometimes change at the last moment. If you need an urgent clean, contact us with your address, property size and deadline. We will check team availability immediately and let you know what is realistically possible and how long the clean is likely to take.
Are you insured if something gets damaged during cleaning?
Yes. We are fully insured for end of tenancy cleaning work. Our public liability insurance covers accidental damage to your property while we are on site, and we also hold appropriate goods in transit insurance where any items are transported as part of agreed tasks. Incidents are rare because our teams are trained to handle surfaces and equipment carefully, but if anything does occur, we follow a straightforward reporting and resolution process. We are happy to provide proof of insurance on request before the booking is confirmed.
What exactly is included in your end of tenancy cleaning service?
Our standard service covers all main rooms, including bedrooms, living areas, kitchen, bathrooms, hallways and internal windows. We dust, vacuum and mop throughout, clean skirting boards, doors and frames, and deep clean kitchen and bathroom fixtures. Ovens, hobs, extractor fronts and the inside of kitchen cupboards are included as standard, along with a wipe-down of empty fridges and freezers. Optional extras include carpet cleaning and upholstery cleaning. We will send you a written list of inclusions at quotation stage so you know exactly what will be done.
How far in advance should I book my end of tenancy clean?
Ideally, you should book as soon as you know your move-out date, especially if you are leaving at the end of a month or during busy moving periods. One to two weeks’ notice usually gives us enough time to offer you a good choice of appointments. That said, we will always try to help with shorter notice where our schedule allows. It is best if the property is empty on the day of the clean, so try to coordinate removals and cleaning dates early in your planning.
Do I need to be at the property during the clean?
You do not have to stay for the duration of the clean as long as we can gain access and you are available by phone if any questions arise. Many clients meet us at the start, walk us through any particular concerns, and then return at the end to check the work. Others arrange key collection via their agent. We are flexible, but we do recommend a brief handover either before or after so you are comfortable that everything has been completed as agreed.
