End of Tenancy Cleaning in Swords

Reputable companies offer a re-clean guarantee, usually 48-72 hours, meaning they return free of charge if the landlord or agent flags missed areas at checkout. Always confirm the guarantee window in writing before booking.

Yes. End of tenancy crews arrive with professional products, oven-cleaning chemicals, and often steam or hot-water extraction machines. You only need to provide access, power, and running water.

A one-bedroom flat typically takes a two-person team 3-5 hours. A three-bedroom house can take 6-10 hours or a larger crew. The property should be empty of furniture and belongings for the fastest result.

If the carpets were professionally cleaned before you moved in, or your lease requires it, yes — keep the receipt. Otherwise vacuuming plus spot-cleaning to match the move-in condition is generally enough.

A full top-to-bottom clean of the empty property: inside the oven and appliances, inside cupboards, limescale removal, skirting boards, windows inside, and a deep clean of the bathroom and kitchen. Carpet steam cleaning is usually a paid extra.

Prices in Swords depend on the size and condition of the property. Studios and one-bed flats sit at the low end, while three-bed houses with carpets and a neglected oven cost several times more. Get an itemised quote that states rooms, oven, and carpets separately.

Legally yes in most markets — you are obliged to meet a cleanliness standard, not to hire a company. In practice, ovens, limescale, and carpet stains are where DIY cleans fail checkout inspections, so budget serious time and proper products if you go that route.

Only for actual cleaning needed beyond normal wear, and the deduction must be justifiable — the RTB routinely awards deposits back where landlords can't evidence the condition difference. A dated invoice and photos are your best protection.
