What we do
What the cleaning includes: three tasks
Once the furniture and belongings have gone, dust, bits of debris and marks are left on the floor. The simple clean removes them, room by room.
1. Sweep
Dust, paper, small debris and scraps of cardboard are swept up and collected in every emptied room.
2. Vacuum
The vacuum cleaner goes over the floors, along the skirting boards and into the corners where dust gathered behind the furniture.
3. Mop
Hard floors (tiles, sealed parquet, lino) are mopped to remove the marks left by the comings and goings.
Room by room
Which rooms are cleaned
The cleaning covers the floors of the rooms we have just cleared.
| Room | What is done |
|---|---|
| Living room and bedrooms | Floors swept, vacuumed and mopped. |
| Kitchen | Floor swept, vacuumed and mopped once the cupboards are empty. |
| Bathroom | Floor swept and mopped. |
| Hallways and entrance | Floors swept, vacuumed and mopped. |
| Cellar, attic, garage | Swept once empty. |
Good to know
A simple clean, nothing more

When to ask for it
When should you ask for cleaning after the clearance?
The simple clean is useful whenever the emptied property has to be shown or handed back.
Before viewings
An empty, tidy property is easier to show, whether it is for sale or to let.
Before the key handover
You hand back a cleared, broom-clean flat or house on the agreed date, for example when you move out at the end of a tenancy.
Before works
Builders start in rooms that are clear and swept.

Frequently asked questions
Post-clearance cleaning: your questions
What exactly does the cleaning after a house clearance include?
Three tasks in the emptied rooms: sweeping, vacuuming and mopping. The floors are cleared of the dust, debris and marks left by furniture and boxes. It is a simple clean, giving a broom-clean finish.
Is the cleaning included in the house clearance quote?
Yes, if you ask for it during the free visit: it then appears in the written quote, with one fixed price for the whole job.
Are cellars, attics and garages cleaned too?
They are swept once they are empty. Vacuuming and mopping apply to the emptied living spaces: living room, bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and hallways.
Is the property ready for a viewing or the key handover?
Yes. Once swept, vacuumed and mopped, the emptied rooms are tidy and ready for a viewing, the key handover or the start of building works.
Is this cleaning enough for the check-out inspection at the end of my tenancy?
It is a simple clean of the floors of the emptied rooms. If your lease or your landlord asks for more, plan for additional cleaning: we do not guarantee the outcome of a check-out inspection.
Do you offer the cleaning without a house clearance?
