Frequently asked questions

Most tenancy agreements require you to organise an end of tenancy clean prior to checking out of the property.

If you do not organise a clean, and the property fails to meet the landlord’s requirements for cleanliness, you may have a fee deducted from your security deposit to cover the cost of cleaning.

End of tenancy cleaning is more thorough than a standard home clean, and takes longer to complete. It’s designed to thoroughly clean a property before new tenants move in.

Cleaning of kitchen appliances and white goods is included as standard in an end of tenancy clean. All cupboards will be cleaned - inside and out - as well as inside windows.

All standard cleaning tasks - like mopping, vacuuming and surface cleaning - are also completed during an end of tenancy clean.

Our end of tenancy cleaning service is the most thorough clean you can book. It's designed for homes that are completely empty, so the cleaning team can clean even more hard-to-reach areas - including the inside of cupboards & appliances.

Our deep cleaning service is more thorough than regular cleaning, but is designed for homes that are still being lived in.

Ideally the property should be fully cleared. The only items that should be left in the property are those staying in the property after your tenancy ends. If you require the inside of cupboards to be cleaned, these will need to be emptied in advance of the clean.

We take a card payment when you book. We accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express payment cards. 

We can collect keys from a key safe, a neighbour or your estate agent (within a ten minute journey of the property). Just let us know where the keys will be in the ‘Any other details?’ section of the booking form.

It usually takes your cleaning team 3-5 hours to complete an end of tenancy clean.

The cleaning team will bring everything they need for your end of tenancy clean, including all products and a vacuum cleaner.

If we miss anything, let us know within 72 hours and we’ll come back and reclean it for free.

We can't recommend Idris enough. He cleans my elderly mother's house regularly and is very competent and reliable. With him both my mother and her home are in excellent hands. He is thorough with his attention to cleaning, and kind, friendly and respectful to her. Any little extras asked of him he accomodates what a smile and a willingness to do a good job. When Idris comes to clean he adds some sparkle through his positive can-do attitude, as well as leaves the place sparkling clean.

New to using HK. Only 3 cleans with first cleaner n/a due to travel time. Very pleased with Caren's debut clean. Only advised which rooms to clean and she understood - you clean and dust wipe surfaces, even noticed dust on ceiling hanging glass light shades, lift items to dust shelves - attention to detail. Very good attitude to doing what is a job and flexible to accommodate the increased time I required from 2 - 3hrs.

I am incredibly impressed with the cleaning services provided by Anam. She was punctual and very reliable, which immediately set a positive tone. Her professionalism is top-notch, and it was clear from the start that she takes her work seriously. What truly sets Anam apart is her meticulous attention to detail. She didn’t just do a surface clean; she really got into the nitty-gritty areas that often get overlooked. I highly recommend Anam for anyone seeking thorough, reliable, and professional cleaning services. You won’t be disappointed!
