			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anyone who has had builders in to carry out any sort of work on their home will know exactly how much dust and mess they leave behind. Whether it is a full on extension or loft conversion you are having, or simply a new bathroom or kitchen fitted, the dust created by builders and the mess they leave behind can take a long time to clean up.</p>
<p>We also know that many people simply don’t have the professional equipment at home needed to do the job properly, and that’s why EP Cleaners have created a post builders clean team. Our team of cleaners are all professionally trained, and have decades of experience between them in reactive cleaning.</p>
<p>They also go through weeks a training each year, and demand the very best cleaning equipment to do as thorough job as possible.</p>
<p>One of the biggest problems builders leave behind is dust, and even purpose built dust sheets do little to remove the problem of dust all over the house. This dust will also cause breathing problems, particularly for members of the family who suffer with breathing or asthma related illnesses.</p>
<p>The team will battle the dust first, using purpose built dust busting vacuums to remove any problems, and will also wipe down and clean any surface where dust may have settled, including the inside of cupboards and drawers.</p>
<p>As well as cleaning your carpets, they will also target anything upholstered, as dust can settle in sofas, chairs and curtains, only to be knocked back out again when someone sits on the sofa, or closes the curtains.</p>
<p>The team will also clean the rest of your home up to their usual impeccable standards, and after steam cleaning your carpets, you will see the original colour and feel come back, a feeling many of our customers describe as being like having a brand new carpet fitted again.</p>
<p>Our post builders cleaning team can do as much work as you would expect to get through in several months, and can truly rid your home of the dust and mess that building work unfortunately leaves behind.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most stressful things about moving house when you move out of a rental property is worrying about getting your deposit back, especially as many people need it to help pay for the deposit on their next house, whether they buy, or rent again.</p>
<p>With landlords now having to give their deposits to a national safekeeping scheme, instead of looking after them personally, more and more people get back their money, but landlords have now realised that they can withhold some of the money because of a lack of cleaning. They then claim to call in an expensive cleaning team to clean the home, and take the money from your deposit.</p>
<p>This can be extremely frustrating, particularly if you are charged £50, or even £100 for someone to come in a deal with dust on the wine rack, or to wipe out the fridge.</p>
<p>To avoid any of the worry, and to make sure you are not caught out for cleaning, you can call in the EP Cleaners end of tenancy cleaning team. They are professionally trained end of tenancy cleaners who will make sure that home is left in perfect cleaning condition. You can also tell your landlord that you have had professional end of tenancy cleaners in, who have taken photographs of your work. Very few landlords will even attempt to question the professional integrity of a cleaning company, especially not one with photographs as proof, meaning you’ll get your deposit back in full, at least for the cleanliness of your home.</p>
<p>It’s not just people who are moving out of their home who use the EP Cleaners end of tenancy cleaning service. We have many clients who are so impressed with the service that they call the team in to clean their new home as well, meaning that they can move into a perfectly clean home, without any worries about dust, or lingering bacteria or bugs in the kitchen and bathroom areas.</p>
<p>You’ll also find that by having someone else taking the cleaning element of moving out of your hands that the whole moving experience will seem a lot less stressful, with many people claiming that having to clean two homes is their least favourite part of moving home.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone who has ever rented a home, either privately or through university accommodation will know that the worst part of the rental process is leaving the home, and having to clean it before you go. With a deposit on the line which can be as much as two months’ rent, your landlord effectively has you bent over a barrel, and some people will find that however well they clean the property, they just won’t get all of their deposit back.</p>
<p>This is where end of tenancy cleaning comes in. You may think that professional cleaning will cost you a fortune, but you’re wrong, and your time is also worth money, as is the huge deposit you have given to your landlord when you took out the lease on the property in the first place.</p>
<p>End of tenancy cleaners will come into your home just after you’ve cleared it of your possessions and will clean it from top to bottom, including wiping walls, skirting boards, hovering, steam cleaning the carpets for a small extra charge when appropriate, and cleaning the kitchen cupboards and fridge inside and out. The house will look cleaner than when you moved into it, and when you mention to a landlord that you’ve had professional cleaners come into the home, a landlord will be far less likely to try to take away some of your deposit for cleaning problems as he won’t want to question the cleaners professional integrity.</p>
<p>Because the cleaning company will come in and do the cleaning for you, you’ll save yourself those many hours you would have spent cleaning and tidying before you left, which can be better spent not taking so much time off work, or helping settle into your new home instead.</p>
<p>You won’t lose any of your deposit because the landlord feels the need to bring in cleaners for the little bits you’ve missed, and in the long run will have saved more money than you spent on the cleaners in the first place. One you’ve used end of tenancy cleaning services, you’ll never go back.<br />
We also offer a deep cleaning service for those really in need of a deep clean.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The number of people using professional cleaning services is increasing all the time as the benefits of calling in the professionals starts to become more obvious.</p>
<p>Those in rented accommodation in particular will appreciate the skills of professional cleaners, as the level of cleanliness at the <a href="/end-of-tenancy-cleaning/">end of a tenancy cleaning</a> makes a huge difference to how much deposit the tenants get back.</p>
<p>One particular cleaning company, <strong>EPcleaners.co.uk</strong> offer a range of cleaning services which have proved extremely popular with tenants and homeowners. End of Tenancy cleaning is the most obvious choice of cleaning service, with cleaners coming in and cleaning the home before handing it back to the landlord, massively increasing the tenant’s chances of getting their full deposit back.</p>
<p>The cast majority of complaints regarding non returned deposits revolve around cleaning fees for non thorough cleaning, but with <strong>EP Cleaners</strong> and their reputation, many landlords will be unable to argue that the house is anything but spotless.</p>
<p>Of course, if you stay in a home for more than six months, then dirt can build up and it’s sensible to both clean on a weekly basis, but also to carry out periodical spring cleans. Also <strong>EP Cleaners</strong> offer deep cleaning services which allow tenants to have their home thoroughly cleaned every year which improves their living conditions, and also makes inspections a much simpler process.</p>
<p><strong>EP Cleaners</strong> also offer carpet cleaning, which can make a huge difference to both homeowners and tenants. Many tenants in the past have thought their deposit was gone as they spilt red wine or Bolognese sauce all over the carpet, but with a carpet cleaning service, the carpet can look good as new in no time. Homeowners can also use the specialist steam cleaning service to rejuvenate tired looking carpets, effectively providing the homeowner with a brand new carpet, without the outlay for one.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone who has rented a property in the past has been in the same situation. The <a href="/end-of-tenancy-cleaning/">end of tenancy clean</a> that you know you must do if you want your full deposit back. Often that deposit is required as a deposit on the next home, and many people can ill afford to lose it.</p>

<p>Those landlords who do go on the hunt for dirt and grime will also be disappointed as the end of tenancy cleaning service is very thorough, and will be cleaned to a standard you wished you had moved in to in the first place.</p>
<p>Some satisfied customers are so happy with the service they are calling in the same team to clean their new properties, and getting them back once a year to give the home a thorough spring clean.</p>
<p>So anyone who wants their deposit back in full, the answer is simple. <a href="/end-of-tenancy-cleaning/">End of Tenancy cleaning</a> services which will leave the previous tenant with a full deposit, the landlord happy his property is clean, and the new tenants with a clean home to move into.</p>

<p>If you are ascertaining quotes from cleaning companies please compare on a like for like basis and check there credentials, and references. If they carry out move out cleaning they should work for at least 3 Estate Agents. There are some unscrupulous cleaning companies that have sprung up over the last 12 months claiming to be move out cleaning companies. We have had reports of them cutting keys to properties, not turning up and cleaners turning up without chemicals, equipment etc.</p>
<p>Ask the following questions</p>
<ul>
<li>What is the business address and request if you can drop into their offices to pay? If the company in question makes an excuse you know that they have lied concerning their business address.</li>
<li>All end of tenancy cleaning companies should work for at least 3 estate agents as this is where most of our work is generated from</li>
<li>Ask what chemicals they use for their carpets cleaning</li>
<li>Ask for their VAT number</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the past, end of tenant cleaners have been associated with landlords keen to clean their homes before the next tenants move in, but they have now found a new client.</p>
<p>End of tenancy cleaning website, <a href="/end-of-tenancy/">epcleaners.co.uk</a> revealed that they have had more and more tenants contacting them, asking for a professional cleaning service to clean the home before they give the keys back.</p>
<p>This is because of the number of tenants who have cleaned themselves, only to move out and have a chunk of their deposit taken off them for inadequate cleaning. They are then getting charged as much as £50 an hour for cleaners to wipe out the fridge, remove some dust from wine racks or even to run a duster over the top of doors.</p>
<p>By bringing in an end of tenancy cleaning firm the tenants can be sure that a thorough job has been done and the landlord will have peace of mind that a thorough job has been done, saving him time and effort in rearranging cleaners.</p>
<p>End of tenancy cleaners offer a full cleaning solution, cleaning the kitchen cupboards, oven, fridge and counters inside and out, as well as defrosting the freezer and cleaning the hob and grill.</p>
<p>Tenants often find that by bringing in the <a href="/end-of-tenancy/">end of tenancy cleaning</a> experts that the cleaners will find dirt they would never have imagined to look for, and will often not recognise the house or flat when it’s fully cleaned.</p>
<p>Some clients have liked the service so much that they’ve called in the end of tenancy service to their own homes, when they are not even leaving, just to give it the thorough clean it needs once in a while.</p>
<p>To find end of tenant cleaners, if you are a landlord, tenant or just looking for someone to carry out a through spring clean, visit <strong>epcleaners.co.uk</strong> for more.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>End of tenancy cleaning is a very specialist area of cleaning that many cleaning companies claim to carry out but few master. The following groups enlist the services of a professional End of tenancy cleaning company.</p>
<ul>
<li>Tenant (s) vacating a property to 	get it cleaned to a professional standard</li>
<li>Landlord ascertaining a 	professional clean before the property is rented out or after the 	tenants leave without having it professional cleaned.</li>
<li>Estate agents working on behalf of 	either the landlord or the tenant for both managed and unmanaged 	properties.</li>
</ul>
<p>The reason an end of tenancy clean is carried out is to ensure that the tenant receives all or as much of his deposit back from the landlord or the managing agent. Secondly from a landlord that should have a professional clean carried out before the first tenant moves in. Once the property has been cleaned to a professional standard by the landlord it is the responsibility of the tenants to return the property back to the same level of cleanliness.</p>
<p>The reason end of tenancy cleaning companies fail to deliver is that the cleaning staff are not trained to deep clean properties to a professional standard. The entire property should be cleaned to professional standard and not just certain areas of the property. The chemicals many cleaning companies use are either inappropriate or ineffective in removing stains and marks in the property which includes carpets. Cleaning is all about contact time; to clean a 2 bedroom Apartment EP Cleaners (<a href="http://www.epcleaners.co.uk">www.epcleaners.co.uk</a>) would use 2-3 cleaners for the day. This would entail approximately 14-21 hours of cleaning in the property. This should give the cleaners an adequate amount of time to get the property to a professional standard.</p>
<p>To gain an understanding of what some properties look like before and after the clean EP Cleaners take photographic evidence. Some properties are left in a truly poor standard (<a href="http://www.epcleaners.co.uk/gallery/">http://www.epcleaners.co.uk/gallery/</a>).</p>

<p>The use of video has also been used for TDs purposes which many cleaning companies fail to offer. Please see an example of a property before and after EP Cleaners cleaned the property (<a href="http://www.epcleaners.co.uk/videos/">http://www.epcleaners.co.uk/videos/</a>).</p>
<p>Some End of Tenancy Cleaning Companies have flourished in the internet age with clever SEO and advertising. Customers should always carry out full references before allowing a cleaning company to enter their property.</p>
<p>Please ask the following questions before instructing an End of Tenancy cleaning company</p>
<ul>
<li>What is the business address and 	request if you can drop into their offices to pay? If the company in 	question make an excuse they may not have an office and there may be 	calls for concern</li>
<li>All end of tenancy cleaning 	companies should work for at least 3 estate agents as this is where 	most of our work is generated from. Always check references. EP 	Cleaners works for 10 large estate agents 	(<a href="http://www.epcleaners.co.uk/clients/">http://www.epcleaners.co.uk/clients/</a>)</li>
<li>Ask what chemicals they use for 	their carpets cleaning.</li>
<li>Ask for their VAT number to check 	to see if legitimate</li>
<li>Beware of purely generic websites 	that offer little substance of the company background and it clients</li>
</ul>
