An inventory clerk visiting a Hampstead Garden Suburb property at check-out works to a checklist that covers every surface, fixture, and fitting, not just the obvious floors and worktops. The grease film on an oven door glass, limescale around a bath tap, or a cobweb in a cornice above eye level are the details that generate deduction items, and they are the ones a quick DIY clean typically misses.
Properties in NW11 add specific surfaces to that list. Original sash windows have channels that collect black dust and debris. Cast-iron fireplaces and ornate cornicing trap cobwebs and dust above furniture height. Period enamel baths and original tiled bathrooms accumulate limescale from London’s hard water faster than modern surfaces, and grout lines show staining quickly. Parquet hallways and wood floors need to be cleaned without excess moisture that could lift the seal before the handover.
Samyx carries out the clean in the same room sequence an inspector follows: starting at the furthest room from the front door and working toward it, covering every kitchen appliance inside, every bathroom fixture descaled, and every surface that appears on a standard check-out report. The aim is a property that passes on first inspection, supported by the 72-hour re-clean if any specific area is flagged in the report.
Choose your flat or house size and see the fixed total with VAT before you book - the price does not change at the door.
Review the inventory-standard checklist and add carpet or upholstery cleaning if your tenancy agreement calls for it.
Pick a date, hand over keys or codes, and the team arrives fully briefed - we work around removals and inventory appointments.
The property is cleaned room by room against the checklist. If the check-out report flags a listed item, we return within 72 hours.

A standard end of tenancy clean in Hampstead Garden Suburb follows the same room order used by letting agents and inventory clerks at check-out. The detail below covers what gets addressed in each area.
Kitchen: oven interior and door glass (degreased with dwell-time products, not surface-wiped); hob and surround; extractor fan interior and filter; fridge and freezer interiors and door seals (defrost the fridge the day before the clean); dishwasher and washing machine drum and filter; all cupboard and drawer interiors; worktops and tiled splashbacks; sink and taps with limescale removed from all fixtures.
Bathrooms: bath, shower enclosure, and toilet cleaned and descaled; taps, shower head, and mixer bar descaled; tiles, mirror, and grout lines treated for limescale and soap scum; extractor fan; sealant lines and all built-in storage.
Bedrooms and living areas: wardrobe and shelving interiors; skirting boards and door frames (a standard inspection point at every check-out); light switches, plug sockets, and door handles; internal window sills, ledges, and sash window channels; floors vacuumed and hard surfaces mopped.
Throughout: cobwebs removed from cornicing and ceiling corners; radiators dusted and wiped; internal windows cleaned including frames and reachable outer sills; storage cupboards accessed and wiped inside.
Carpet extraction is a separate add-on booked at the same time. Carpets are cleaned after the general clean and require 2 to 4 hours to dry before furniture is moved back.
Every quote is fixed by property size and confirmed before your moving date. No hourly rate, no last-minute adjustments, and no surcharge for period features or larger NW11 properties. The from-prices below cover the full checklist, all materials and equipment, and all kitchen appliances.

Book the end of tenancy clean as soon as the moving date is confirmed. End-of-month dates in NW11 fill quickly, particularly June, July, and September when tenancies renew most often in the Garden Suburb. Booking 2 to 4 weeks ahead secures the preferred date. Short-notice bookings within a few days are sometimes possible but cannot be guaranteed for specific dates.
The property must be empty before the clean begins: furniture and personal belongings removed, and the fridge and freezer defrosted the day before. Access details (key safe code, concierge contact, or key drop-off arrangement) are entered at booking and passed to the team in advance. Parts of NW11 have parking restrictions; any specific access notes should be included at booking to avoid delays on the day.
If carpet extraction is added, it runs on the same visit after the general clean is complete. Allow an additional 2 to 4 hours drying time before the property is handed over. Bookings are confirmed online with a fixed quote before any payment is taken.
A: End of tenancy cleaning includes a full top-to-bottom clean of the entire property, following a fixed inventory checklist. The service covers kitchens, bathrooms, living areas, appliances, fixtures, and fittings, ensuring the property is ready for inspection.
A: Letting agents and landlords in London require the property to meet professional cleanliness standards before returning your deposit. A proper end of tenancy clean reduces the risk of deductions and failed inventory reports.
A: The clean follows a checklist built around what inventory clerks actually score at London check-outs, shaped by years of cleaning for tenancy handovers. That covers appliances inside and out, limescale-prone areas, and the hidden zones that trigger most deductions. Oven cleaning and VAT are in the fixed price, and a 72-hour re-clean stands behind the work.
A: Yes. Every end of tenancy clean carries a 72-hour re-clean. If the check-out report or your landlord flags an item covered by the agreed checklist within 72 hours of completion, the team returns and re-cleans it free of charge, subject to access. This is the only guarantee we offer, and it applies to end of tenancy cleaning only.
A: If the report cites a cleaning item on the agreed checklist and it is raised within the 72-hour window, we re-clean the affected areas at no extra cost. Most flagged items are resolved in a single focused visit. Refunds are not offered; the re-clean is how the result gets corrected before the deposit conversation goes any further.
A: Yes. All cleaning professionals are covered by Public Liability insurance up to £1,000,000. This covers accidental damage to property during the cleaning process.
A: Cleaning time depends on the size and condition of the property. A small flat in good shape may take 3-4 hours, while larger or heavily used homes can take most of the day. The service finishes once the full checklist is covered, whatever the clock says.
A: No, you don’t need to be present. You can give access through someone else, leave keys with the concierge, or book key collection and return for a small additional fee. Most clients prefer not to be at the property during cleaning.
A: Before the service, please remove all personal items, defrost the fridge/freezer, and bag any leftover rubbish. Ensure electricity, hot water, and lighting are available so the team can work safely and efficiently.
A: Yes. Please make sure the freezer is fully defrosted at least 24 hours in advance. This allows the team to clean it thoroughly without delays or risk of water damage.
A: Yes. All materials, tools, and professional-grade cleaning products are provided and included in the price. You don’t need to supply anything.
A: The team size depends on the property. For smaller flats, one or two cleaners may be enough. For larger homes, we usually send a team of three or four to ensure the work is completed efficiently and to standard.
A: No. External window cleaning is not included in the standard quote. It can be added as an extra service if safe access is possible. Balcony window exteriors are included if balcony cleaning is booked.
A: Yes. Deep oven cleaning is included. We ask that you specify the oven type - single, double, or rangе, when booking so we can assign the proper time and tools.
A: End of tenancy cleaning is usually performed in unfurnished or mostly empty properties. If lightweight furniture remains, it can be moved by the cleaners - only if it can be safely handled by one person.
A: Please arrange parking within 50-150 metres of the property. If a permit is needed, sort it in advance. Where only paid parking is available, parking and congestion charges are covered by the client. Keys or codes can be logged with the booking if you cannot be there.
A: Morning slots (8:00-9:00 am), early afternoon slots (1:00-2:00 pm), and in special cases late afternoon around 5:00 pm. Services run Monday to Saturday, and slots fill 1-2 weeks ahead in busy moving months, so book once your check-out date is set.
A: If the property is in the London Congestion Zone, the congestion charge will be added to your final invoice. We’ll inform you of this during booking confirmation.
A: No. Painted walls and ceilings are only dusted and cobwebs removed. We do not wash them due to the risk of damage to the paint or surface.
A: Vacuuming of carpets and soft furnishings is included. Deep steam cleaning (hot water extraction) is available as an additional service and can be added during booking.
A: In most cases, yes - especially if carpets or sofas were present during tenancy. Many landlords or letting agents expect hot water extraction to be performed. Always check your tenancy agreement for specific requirements.
A: Light dusting of blinds is included as standard. If you require deep cleaning (e.g. for greasy or smoke-covered blinds), it’s available for an additional charge.
A: Light dusting lifts loose surface dust but leaves a film on the slats. Deep cleaning means taking the blinds down where the fitting allows, soaking and wiping slat by slat, and drying before rehanging. Check-out reports photograph blinds against daylight, which is why the film shows even when the room looks clean.
A: We provide end of tenancy cleaning across most London postcodes, covering Zones 1 to 5. If you're unsure whether we operate in your area, contact us and we’ll confirm availability.
A: Yes. We offer cleaning services from Monday to Saturday. Sunday bookings are possible in some cases, depending on availability and may involve a surcharge.
A: We offer discounted rates when carpet cleaning is added to end of tenancy cleaning. The exact price depends on how many rooms are carpeted and their condition. You’ll receive the full quote before confirming the booking.
A: Carpets usually dry within 8 to 12 hours after steam cleaning. We recommend avoiding walking on them during this period to prevent re-soiling or fibre deformation.
A: End of tenancy cleaning follows a strict checklist and is designed to meet letting agent standards. One-off cleaning is more general, without a guarantee, and is usually used for spring cleaning or occasional refresh.
A: A landlord cannot require you to pay for professional cleaning - the Tenant Fees Act 2019 banned mandatory cleaning fees and clauses. What a landlord can do is claim from the deposit if the property is returned less clean than the check-in inventory records. That is why the practical standard is the inventory report, and why a checklist-based clean with an invoice settles most disputes before they start.
A: Fixed prices with VAT and oven cleaning included, a published room-by-room checklist built to the inventory standard, vetted and insured cleaners with £1,000,000 public liability cover, and a 72-hour re-clean tied to the check-out report. The aim is simple: give your deposit its best chance and keep the handover short.
A: The property should be emptied of personal belongings and rubbish. While pre-cleaning isn’t required, properties in extremely poor condition may affect duration or cost. If unsure, feel free to send us photos for review.
Most deposit deductions at check-out come from a small number of specific areas: the oven door glass, a limescale ring on the bath, grease on the extractor filter, or skirting boards that were vacuumed around rather than wiped down. An inventory clerk working through a Hampstead Garden Suburb property checks all of these systematically, and a clean that addresses only the visible surfaces will not pass the full inspection.
Samyx works through the property in inspection-sequence order. Kitchen appliances are cleaned inside (grease carbonises in layers and needs a dwell-time degreaser, not surface wiping). Bathroom fixtures are descaled. Every high-contact surface – switches, handles, skirting boards, door frames – is wiped down. The period features typical of NW11 properties are included rather than worked around: sash window channels, cornice ledges, original tiled surfaces with grout lines, and any cast-iron fireplaces with hearth areas.
Every clean is carried out by DBS-checked, vetted cleaners and covered under £1,000,000 public liability insurance. Over 600 reviews across home service platforms reflect the track record across North West London. The 72-hour re-clean guarantee applies if the property is flagged at the check-out within 72 hours of the clean: the team returns to address the specific points raised. The aim is a property that gives the best chance of a full deposit return; the 72-hour re-clean is the mechanism that supports it.
Samyx provides end of tenancy cleaning across Hampstead Garden Suburb and the NW11 postcode, covering properties in Temple Fortune, the streets around Golders Green Road, Wildwood Road, Meadway, Erskine Hill, and the roads off Hampstead Way. Properties range from large detached and semi-detached family homes built in the Arts and Crafts tradition to mansion-block conversions close to Golders Green station.
End of tenancy cleans for larger NW11 houses run 4 to 7 hours depending on room count, bathroom number, and whether carpet extraction is included. Converted flats and one-bedroom properties typically run 2 to 3 hours. All quotes are fixed by property size and confirmed at booking.
