Frequently asked questions

Most tenancy agreements require you to organise a move-out/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.

Move in/out 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 a move in/out clean. All cupboards will be cleaned - inside and out - as well as inside windows.

All tasks included in a standard home clean - including mopping, vacuuming and surface cleaning - are also completed during a move in/out clean.

Our move in/move out 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.

Deep cleaning 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 you move out. 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. 
 

Cleaners can collect keys from a key safe, a neighbour or your estate agent (within a ten minute walk 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 a move-in/move-out clean.

The cleaning team will bring everything they need for your move in/move out clean, including all products and a vacuum cleaner.

Move in/move out cleans are normally completed by a team of two professional cleaners. They’ll bring all of the products and equipment for the perfect clean. All you need to do is make sure that the property is packed up and emptied before they arrive.

Your team went above and beyond. I couldn't be more impressed. They came into a house in a very poor state and made it look amazing. Thank you for an incredible service I will recommend to everyone. Btw do you have a media department? I am a tv producer who develops tv shows for all major channels - and think your company would make a great docu soap?! If you are interested - email kate@mighty.productions. Perhaps we could have a zoom to discuss further Kate

Mario is quite frankly one of the best cleaners I've met while using this service. His attention to detail is astounding and it is clear how much he cares about providing the best service for his clients. Quite frankly if I could personally select someone to handle my deep clean, he'd be the cleaner I'd choose.

“Maria is well spoken, professional and very organised. The only bit of issue I had was with not seeing the dusting done properly in the second bedroom which was bit wired for me as she seemed very articulate. She also mentioned that for the size of my house I should have booked a cleaning service for 4 hours and not 3 I think the company should have a hard constraint on timing if that is the case. I was overall pleased with her service I only justified why would I might have given her 4 and not 5 start..”
