Frequently asked questions

Most tenancy agreements require you to organise an end of tenancy clean prior to checking out of the property.

If you do not organise a clean, and the property fails to meet the landlord’s requirements for cleanliness, you may have a fee deducted from your security deposit to cover the cost of cleaning.

End of tenancy cleaning is more thorough than a standard home clean, and takes longer to complete. It’s designed to thoroughly clean a property before new tenants move in.

Cleaning of kitchen appliances and white goods is included as standard in an end of tenancy clean. All cupboards will be cleaned - inside and out - as well as inside windows.

All standard cleaning tasks - like mopping, vacuuming and surface cleaning - are also completed during an end of tenancy clean.

Our end of tenancy cleaning service is the most thorough clean you can book. It's designed for homes that are completely empty, so the cleaning team can clean even more hard-to-reach areas - including the inside of cupboards & appliances.

Our deep cleaning service is more thorough than regular cleaning, but is designed for homes that are still being lived in.

Ideally the property should be fully cleared. The only items that should be left in the property are those staying in the property after your tenancy ends. If you require the inside of cupboards to be cleaned, these will need to be emptied in advance of the clean.

We take a card payment when you book. We accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express payment cards. 

We can collect keys from a key safe, a neighbour or your estate agent (within a ten minute journey of the property). Just let us know where the keys will be in the ‘Any other details?’ section of the booking form.

It usually takes your cleaning team 3-5 hours to complete an end of tenancy clean.

The cleaning team will bring everything they need for your end of tenancy clean, including all products and a vacuum cleaner.

If we miss anything, let us know within 72 hours and we’ll come back and reclean it for free.

5 Stars – Outstanding Deep Cleaning Service! I recently had the pleasure of hiring the team for a deep clean of my home, and I am beyond impressed! From start to finish, the team demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and a true commitment to excellence. Every corner of my house, including those often overlooked spots, was thoroughly cleaned and left sparkling. The team worked efficiently but never rushed, ensuring that every task was done to perfection. My floors, windows, and even hard-to-reach areas were spotless, and they tackled tough grime in my kitchen and bathrooms. They brought all of their own high-quality supplies and equipment, which made the process completely hassle-free for me. The team was also punctual, friendly, and respectful of my home and belongings.

Omotola - home cleaner in East Ham North, East Ham South, Lea Bridge, Leytonstone, Olympic Park, Plaistow, Silvertown

Omotola

Areas covered

East Ham North East Ham South Lea Bridge Leytonstone Olympic Park Plaistow Silvertown

“Tola was punctual and professional. She communicated well before arrival and asked to be shown around on arrival so she knew where things were, what needed to be done and what equipment was available for use (including if I had specific cloths or products I wanted used). Tola was thorough and efficient and was so courteous and diligent I did not feel disrupted at all while working from home (even though I was prepared for any interruption.) Tola was also very honest about timings (I had thought more time was needed and prepared to add this on but she had said it wouldn't be) and ensured all tasks were completed in time before she left. Very satisfied with the clean, thank you Tola!.”
