End of Tenancy Cleaning in Chelsea

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.

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.

Prices in Chelsea 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.

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.

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.

In England, no — the Tenant Fees Act 2019 voids clauses that require professional cleaning. You must return the property as clean as at check-in (fair wear excepted). A professional clean with invoice is still the easiest way to win a deposit adjudication.
