Who Our End of Tenancy Cleaning Is For
Renters and Tenants
If you are moving out of a rented flat or house in Richmond, our service is designed to help protect your deposit. We work to detailed checklists and can focus on any areas your landlord or agent has highlighted, such as oven cleaning, limescale removal in bathrooms or stains on fixtures.
Homeowners
For homeowners selling or moving, a professional end of tenancy style clean helps present the property at its best for buyers or for the new owners. We can schedule cleaning between completion and handover to minimise disruption.
Landlords and Letting Agents
We regularly work with local landlords and agents across Richmond who want consistent, professional cleaning between tenancies. Our teams understand inventory standards, work to fixed specifications and can provide invoices and proof of work for your records.
Students
Shared student houses and halls often need a more intensive clean at the end of the tenancy. We offer fair, transparent pricing for student properties and can coordinate with multiple tenants to ensure the whole property is cleaned to an acceptable standard.
Businesses and Commercial Tenants
For offices, retail units and other commercial spaces, we provide move-out cleans so you can meet dilapidation requirements. This can include deep cleaning of staff kitchens, toilets and communal areas, as well as floor and surface cleaning throughout.
What Is Not Included as Standard
To keep our pricing fair and transparent, some tasks are not included in a standard end of tenancy clean but can often be added on request:
- External window cleaning and high-level glass
- Carpet steam cleaning and upholstery shampooing
- Wall washing or repainting
- Major mould remediation beyond surface cleaning
- Rubbish removal or garden clearance
- Cleaning of lofts, garages or outbuildings unless agreed
- Professional oven valeting for heavy build-up (can be arranged)
Our team will always explain clearly what is and is not included before you book, so there are no surprises on the day.
Our Step-by-Step End of Tenancy Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quotation
You can contact us by phone, email or online form. We will ask a few key questions: property type, number of rooms, number of bathrooms, any balconies or terraces, whether you need carpet cleaning, and your preferred dates. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote. Most properties can be priced without a visit, using accurate information from you.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger or unusual properties, we may suggest a short virtual survey (photos or video call) or an onsite visit. This allows us to check the overall condition, identify any heavy build-up (for example, ovens or scale) and confirm access and parking. The aim is to make sure you receive a realistic quote and that we allow enough time and staff on the day.
3. Preparation and Cleaning Day
We agree an arrival window and ask that the property is empty of personal belongings and that any large rubbish is removed. On arrival we walk through the property, confirm the agreed work and then start from the top of the property down. Our trained team brings all cleaning products, equipment and cloths. Once finished, we complete a final check, and you are welcome to inspect before we leave.
Transparent Pricing for End of Tenancy Cleaning in Richmond
We price our end of tenancy cleaning based primarily on property size, number of bathrooms and overall condition. Typical factors include:
- Studio and one-bedroom flats generally cost less, with shorter cleaning times
- Larger family homes and HMOs require more time and staff
- Heavily used kitchens and bathrooms may need extra work
- Optional extras such as carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning
All quotes are provided in writing and clearly state what is included, so you know exactly what you are paying for. We do not add hidden charges on the day; any variation is always discussed and agreed first.
Why Use Professional End of Tenancy Cleaners Instead of DIY?
Many tenants start cleaning themselves and quickly realise how time-consuming and detailed it needs to be. Our professional teams clean properties every day and know where landlords and agents look: inside ovens, behind toilets, on skirting boards, inside cupboards, and around extractor fans and tiles.
Using a professional service saves you hours or even days of effort, reduces stress during your move and increases the likelihood of meeting check-out standards. We bring commercial-grade products and equipment, follow structured checklists and work systematically so that nothing important is missed.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Deep Cleaning Richmond operates to high, professional standards for your peace of mind.
- Public liability cover – protects you and your property while we are working onsite.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers our equipment and materials while being transported to and from your property.
- Trained moving teams – all staff are carefully selected, trained in safe working methods and supervised, especially on more complex jobs.
We use appropriate access equipment, avoid harsh abrasives on delicate surfaces and follow manufacturer guidance for appliances where available.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every property as if it were our own. Floors and surfaces are protected where necessary, and we always check finishes before choosing products. We work carefully around fixtures and fittings to avoid accidental damage and immediately report any issues we discover, such as pre-existing damage or maintenance problems.
Where possible, we use concentrated, high-quality products that reduce waste and avoid unnecessary harsh chemicals. Microfibre cloths, measured dosing and careful water use help minimise our environmental impact while still achieving a professional standard of cleanliness.

We regularly clean properties in Richmond town centre, Kew, East Sheen, Twickenham borders and the surrounding neighbourhoods. This local knowledge means we understand common property types and typical check-out requirements in the area.
Our teams are familiar with parking, access and building rules in local blocks and estates, which helps us arrive on time and complete the work efficiently, even on busy moving days.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does end of tenancy cleaning in Richmond cost?
The cost depends on the size and condition of the property, along with any extras you choose, such as carpet or upholstery cleaning. Smaller studio and one-bedroom flats are normally at the lower end of our pricing, while larger family homes naturally take longer and cost more. We provide a clear, fixed quote before any work is booked so you know the total cost in advance. There are no hidden charges, and we are happy to explain how the price is calculated.
Can you provide same-day or urgent end of tenancy cleaning?
We do our best to accommodate urgent bookings, especially during peak moving periods. Same-day or next-day appointments depend on existing schedules and team availability, but we will always be honest about what we can achieve. If we can fit you in, we will confirm the time window and service scope clearly. For very short notice cleans, some flexibility on start times may be required so that we can reorganise teams and ensure the right staff and equipment are available.
Are you insured while working in my property?
Yes. We carry public liability cover for work carried out at your property and goods in transit insurance for our equipment and materials while being transported. This protects you, your landlord and our staff. We also train our teams thoroughly in safe working practices to reduce the risk of any accidents or damage. Copies of our insurance details can be provided on request, and we are happy to confirm cover to landlords or agents if needed before the clean takes place.
What exactly is included in your end of tenancy cleaning service?
Our standard service includes thorough cleaning of all rooms: kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas and hallways. This covers surfaces, cupboards (inside and out), skirting boards, internal windows (reachable), fixtures, fittings and flooring. We also include cleaning of a standard single oven, hob and extractor exterior, plus fridge and freezer if defrosted. Heavy-duty tasks such as carpet steam cleaning, external windows or wall washing are not included as standard but can often be added for an additional charge, which we will always confirm in writing beforehand.
How far in advance should I book my end of tenancy clean?
Ideally, you should book as soon as you have a confirmed moving date and check-out appointment. During busy periods, such as the end of the month and summer move-out season, slots can fill quickly. Booking one to two weeks in advance gives the best chance of securing your preferred date and time. However, we can often arrange cleans at shorter notice, especially midweek. The most important thing is that the property is empty of personal belongings before we arrive, so we can work efficiently and thoroughly.
