Especially in London, end-of-tenancy cleaning can be a bit of a headache if you don’t know what to expect or more importantly, what is expected of you. Time and time again we hear of tenants being ripped off at the end of their tenancy because their accommodation wasn’t restored to the standard it was found in. But it doesn’t have to be this way and is easily avoidable. 

Join us in this whistlestop guide on how best to prepare yourself for the end of your tenancy, what is expected of you, and how to get your deposit back. 

End-of-Tenancy: What is Expected of the Tenant

At the beginning of your tenancy, you will have likely signed an agreement that when it comes to the end of your occupation you return it to the standard in which you first moved in. Plain and simple, your job as the tenant is to return the property in the same state you found it, so it is important you assess the cleaning standard when you arrive.

At this point, you’ll be handed an inventory list, which is essential for ensuring you get as much of your deposit back as possible. What you do with this is go around the property identifying and detailing any scuffs or marks that were there upon your arrival. This means the landlord cannot accuse you of any damages.

How to Effectively Clean at the End of Your Tenancy

It can seem like quite a daunting task, cleaning your entire property whilst also trying to pack away your things for your move. And if you’re likely to be overwhelmed by the prospect and only half-clean the property, we recommend you reach out to a cleaning company in London. They can take away the stress and anguish of restoring your property to its former glory. 

However, we would never want to discourage anyone from experiencing the satisfaction of cleaning something from top to bottom and being able to visibly notice the difference.
