Around your move

Deep cleaning

A flat that has been empty for two months has a particular smell, and the bathroom is worse than it looks. Cleaning it before your cartons arrive takes a morning with the right machines. Doing it afterwards means moving everything you own twice. At the other end, a cleaned flat is the difference between a landlord signing off and a landlord finding a reason, and it is a much smaller number than the deposit.

What you get

  • Floors scrubbed and mopped, including the grout rather than just over it
  • Bathrooms descaled, with taps, tiles and the WC done with the right chemicals
  • Kitchen degreased, cabinets wiped inside, chimney and hob cleaned
  • Windows, grilles, ledges and balcony railings washed down
  • Fans, light fittings, switchboards and skirting dusted
  • Cobwebs cleared and the flat aired before you get the keys

Not included

  • Pest control and fumigation, which are a licensed trade of their own
  • Clearing out rubbish and furniture the previous tenant left behind
  • Repairs. We will tell you what we find, and fixing it is a different job
  • Water supply. The flat needs running water on the day, or the team cannot work

Your options

Pre-move-in clean
The whole flat while it is still empty, which is when the machines can actually reach.
Move-out clean
For the handover inspection at the flat you are leaving.
Kitchen and bathrooms only
The two rooms that actually need chemicals, when the rest is fine.
Sofa and mattress cleaning
Wet vacuum and shampoo, done on the same visit.

What we need from you

  • Flat size, and how many bathrooms
  • Whether it will be empty, and whether the water and power are on
  • Anything specific that is bothering you, so the team brings the right chemicals

How long it takes

A 2 BHK is most of a day with a team of two or three. Book two or three days ahead, and tell us your key handover date so it lands before the truck.

What it costs

Every job is quoted on what you actually need. Tell us the scope and we send a written price with the terms before you commit to anything.

No advance is taken on a call and nothing is charged for the quote itself.

Who does the work

The work is done by verified local technicians we already use on moves, not by staff of our own. We take the details, send them the job and stay on it until it is finished. You approve the price before anyone is booked.

Frequently asked

How is this different from my regular maid?

Machines and chemicals. A deep clean uses a wet vacuum, a scrubber and descaling agents on grout, hard water stains and kitchen grease, which is work that does not happen with a cloth and a broom. It is a one-off, not a replacement for daily help.

Can you clean before I get possession of the flat?

Only if whoever holds the keys lets the team in and the water and power are on. Plenty of people arrange it with the owner or the society for the morning of the handover, which works well.

Do you clear out the junk the last tenant left?

No, and it is worth saying so before the team arrives. Removing furniture and rubbish is a separate job with its own disposal cost. Ask us and we will quote it, but it is not part of a clean.

Tell us what you need

Send this and we call or WhatsApp you to work out the scope, then put the price in writing. Nothing is charged for the conversation.
