How to hire a end of tenancy cleaning pro in South Africa

  1. Know the Rental Housing Act rules: joint incoming and outgoing inspections are mandatory, and the landlord loses the right to deduct if they skip the inspection
  2. Get a fixed quote by bedrooms with oven and bathroom descaling included
  3. Confirm the company vets and supervises its staff and carries insurance
  4. Schedule the clean before the joint outgoing inspection and attend with your invoice
  5. Check whether walls need washing or touch-up — a common deduction item in SA
  6. Deposit must be held in an interest-bearing account and refunded within 7-14 days depending on deductions

The Rental Housing Act requires deposits to be held in an interest-bearing account and joint incoming/outgoing inspections; a landlord who fails to inspect generally forfeits the right to deduct for damage or cleaning. Provincial Rental Housing Tribunals resolve disputes free of charge.

Frequently asked questions

Can I do the end of tenancy clean myself?

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.

What is the difference between a deep clean and an end of tenancy clean?

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.

Do cleaners bring their own equipment for a move-out clean?

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.

Should carpets be professionally cleaned at move-out?

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.

How much does end of tenancy cleaning cost in Diepsloot?

Prices in Diepsloot 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.

Do I need professional cleaning to get my deposit back?

You need to return the property in the same state of cleanliness as when you moved in, allowing for fair wear and tear. Cleaning disputes are the single most common reason deposits get docked, so a professional clean with an invoice is cheap insurance on larger deposits.

Is end of tenancy cleaning guaranteed?

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.

Can my South African landlord deduct cleaning from my deposit?

Only if a joint outgoing inspection documented the issue and there was a joint incoming inspection to compare against. Deductions must be actual costs with receipts; disputes go free of charge to your provincial Rental Housing Tribunal.
