Our Step-by-Step End of Tenancy Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone or email with your property details: size, number of rooms, location in Wandsworth, and your move-out date. We will ask a few questions about the current condition of the property and any special requirements, such as carpet cleaning or appliances. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote with no hidden extras.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For most standard properties, a virtual survey using photos or a brief video call is sufficient. For larger or more complex properties, we may arrange an onsite visit. The survey allows us to confirm the price, plan the work, and identify any areas that may need extra attention, such as heavy limescale in bathrooms or heavily soiled carpets.
3. Preparation
Before we arrive, we ask that the property is fully vacated, with personal belongings and rubbish removed. If you need help with this, please mention it in advance. Our team then attends with all necessary cleaning materials and equipment. We start with the kitchen and bathrooms, then move systematically through each room until the property is ready for handover.
Transparent Pricing
Our end of tenancy cleaning prices are based on:
- Property size (number of bedrooms/bathrooms)
- Overall condition and any heavy soiling
- Additional services requested (e.g. carpet cleaning, oven valeting)
- Access and parking arrangements in Wandsworth
We provide fixed, written quotations so you know exactly what you will pay before we start. There are no surprise charges on the day, provided the information given is accurate. For students and repeat landlords, we may be able to offer preferential rates for multiple properties.
Why Choose Professional End of Tenancy Cleaning Over DIY?
Doing the entire end of tenancy clean yourself can be extremely time-consuming and physically demanding, especially when you are also trying to move. Professional cleaners bring:
- Experience of what letting agents actually check
- Commercial-grade materials and equipment
- Systematic methods that deliver consistent results
- Professional standards that support your deposit return
While DIY cleaning might seem cheaper, missed areas or poor results often lead to deductions that outweigh any saving. Using a trained, insured team gives you peace of mind and lets you focus on your move.

Wandsworth Carpet Cleaners operates to high professional standards to protect you and your property.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers our equipment and materials while we transport them to your property.

- Trained cleaning teams – all staff receive practical training in safe product use, surface care and best practice for end of tenancy cleans.
We work carefully and respectfully, treating every property as if it were our own.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to balance strong cleaning performance with a responsible approach:
- Using appropriate products for each surface to avoid damage
- Protecting delicate areas and finishes as we work
- Using low-odour, environmentally considerate products where practical
- Minimising water and energy waste during cleaning
Where possible, we select concentrated products and reusable materials to reduce waste. Our goal is a thoroughly clean property with a lighter environmental footprint.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does end of tenancy cleaning in Wandsworth cost?
Pricing depends on the size and condition of your property, plus any extras you choose, such as carpet cleaning or oven valeting. We typically price per property rather than per hour, so you know the full cost upfront. When you contact us, we will ask about the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the general state of the property and your move-out date. Based on this, we provide a clear, fixed quotation with no hidden charges, provided the information supplied is accurate.
Can you offer same-day or urgent end of tenancy cleaning?
We understand that moves do not always go to plan, and sometimes you need an urgent clean at short notice. Where our schedule allows, we can provide same-day or next-day appointments in Wandsworth. Availability will depend on property size and our existing bookings, especially at the end of the month and during peak moving periods. If you have an urgent requirement, call us as early as possible and we will do our best to accommodate you or suggest the nearest available slot.
Are you insured if anything is damaged during cleaning?
Yes. We have public liability cover to protect against accidental damage caused during our work, and goods in transit insurance for our equipment. While we take great care with every property, insurance provides an extra layer of reassurance. If you have particularly delicate or high-value items, please point these out before we start so we can take additional precautions. Our aim is always to leave your property in better condition than we found it, with minimal risk and maximum care.
What exactly is included in your end of tenancy cleaning service?
Our standard service covers a full deep clean of the property’s interior, including kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, bedrooms and internal windows (where safely reachable). We clean appliances such as hobs, oven exteriors, fridge interiors (if defrosted), cupboards inside and out, skirting boards, doors, and light switches. Floors are vacuumed and mopped throughout. Optional extras, such as professional carpet cleaning, oven valeting, or upholstery cleaning, can be added on request. We will list all inclusions and any agreed extras clearly in your written quotation.
How far in advance should I book my end of tenancy clean?
To secure your preferred date and time, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, particularly around the end and beginning of each month when many tenancies change. However, we understand that move-out dates can change, so we try to be flexible where possible. If your plans are uncertain, we can pencil in a provisional slot and confirm nearer the time. For last-minute moves, contact us as soon as you know the date, and we will check current availability.
Do I need to be present during the clean?
You do not need to stay on site while we work, as long as we have access to the property and arrangements for key collection and return are agreed in advance. Many tenants prefer to meet us at the start, run through any specific concerns, and then leave us to it while they focus on the move. Once the clean is complete, we can walk you through the property if you are available, or simply lock up and return the keys as agreed.
