End of tenancy cleaning is a very hard task to overcome particularly with rental properties, when landlords and agencies expect the property be in the condition it was when you arrived. EP Cleaners know how tiresome and draining it can be, cleaning your property to the specification that you moved into.

It is a time-consuming process, not only do you have to make sure everything is restored to its former state, but also make sure everything is completed to a high specification. Packing up all your belongings to, can distract you from cleaning, meaning you have less time to restore your property back into its original condition.

EP Cleaners only hire cleaners that know exactly what condition landlords and letting agencies expect your property to be in at the end of your tenancy. Below is a list the common areas that need special attention:

• All cupboards to be cleaned, as well as all wardrobes, counters in the kitchen and bathroom, inside and out.

• Mopping of all floors, and the vacuuming of all floor surfaces.

• Sanitisation of tiles, sinks and taps, including de-scaling

• Kitchen appliances all restored to previous condition. Fridge and freezer need to be defrosted and cleaned inside and out

• Air conditioners, extractor fans, radiators and ceilings all need cleaning. This can be the most awkward task

• Polishing and dusting of all surfaces inside the property

• Skirting boards, switches and sockets need wiping.

• All wall hangings need proper wiping

• Windows and window sills need cleaning inside the property

These areas need to be cleaned thoroughly at the end of your tenancy to ensure you get your full deposit back. Get an end of tenancy clean to make sure the property is in the condition it should be.

When you pay a tenancy deposit for an assured shorthold tenancy, the land­ lord or letting agent must protect your deposit through a government-backed tenancy deposit scheme. Getting an end of tenancy clean can help you get your full deposit back, regardless of the condition of the property when you left it.

Landlords must be a member of one of the schemes currently in existence. Within 14 days of receiving the deposit, the landlord must provide you with details of how the deposit is being protected including:

• Contact details
• Landlord or agent’s contact details
• Applying for the release of a deposit
• Information which explains the purpose of the deposit
• What to do surrounding disputes about the deposit

If a landlord does not protect your deposit, they have to pay back three times the full deposit amount.

Being part of a tenancy deposit scheme benefits both the landlords and tenants. From a landlord / letting agent’s perspective, the scheme allows for enumeration from a tenant’s deposit if damage is done to their property.

Therefore it’s vital you fill out an itinerary at the beginning and end of your tenancy, to ensure there is proof, in the case that damage is claimed during the tenancy period.

For the tenant, the scheme protects their deposits against unscrupulous landlords by making sure that you get nearly all your deposit back at the end of a tenancy. It provides a fair system for settling disputes, particularly with the return of a deposit at the end of the tenancy. You will be even safer if your property is cleaned properly and restored to its original condition.

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.

They also go through weeks a training each year, and demand the very best cleaning equipment to do as thorough job as possible.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It’s not just people who are moving out of their home who use the EP Cleaners end of tenancy cleaning service.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
We also offer a deep cleaning service for those really in need of a deep clean.
