End of Tenancy Cleaning in Greenwich

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.

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.

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.

An end of tenancy clean follows an agency-style checklist designed to pass a checkout inspection, covering inside appliances and cupboards in an empty property. A deep clean is done in a furnished, lived-in home and is scoped room by room rather than to an inventory standard.

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.

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.

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.
