What Tenants Expect from End of Tenancy Cleaning in Swiss Cottage
Most tenants in Swiss Cottage look for a service that delivers the standard required at check-out. That includes all visible and functional zones, from flooring and furniture to fittings and door areas. Expectations tend to be precise, especially in furnished properties.
The final clean is usually the last task before moving out, and timing often matters. Whether it’s a solo tenancy or a shared flat, the condition needs to match the inventory. Some tenants also rely on key drop-off or remote entry to complete the process without delay.
A successful clean removes the need for follow-ups or clarifications with agents. This includes full coverage across high-use zones and attention to detail in all rooms, regardless of size.
Samyx Cleaning structures its process around real tenancy cases in NW3. Each service reflects the delivery standard local tenants have come to expect when exiting their contracts.

How Move-Out Cleaning in Swiss Cottage Is Delivered
Each cleaning is prepared based on the flat’s layout, number of rooms, and furnishing status. The team arrives with equipment and cleaning agents ready for the specific configuration – no action is needed from the client.
The workflow begins in bedrooms and general areas, followed by bathroom and kitchen zones. Separate materials are used for each type of space to maintain hygiene control. Surface treatment is matched to the material—tiles, laminate, wood, and metal all receive different products.
The sequence includes points often missed in general cleaning: door handles, skirting, socket surrounds, and shelving. Every task follows a predefined list to ensure nothing is overlooked.
Before leaving, a review is conducted against the task sheet. In furnished flats, surfaces like upholstery edges, bedside tables, and lower shelves are also included where applicable. The outcome is a fully covered tenancy exit clean.

For Agents and Landlords - Cleaning Standards That Hold
Letting agents in Swiss Cottage assess final condition based on defined inventory points. These often include extractor units, tap fittings, sink rims, and smaller fixtures that collect visible residue. Meeting these markers supports fast handover.
Samyx Cleaning has provided services to landlords in NW3 for over a decade. The focus is on consistent execution and reliable outcomes. Properties are cleaned to match expectations for agent walkthroughs or photographic inventory submissions.
In furnished units, dust on horizontal surfaces, gaps behind headboards, and cabinet tops are included. These areas affect the agent’s review, especially in high-spec flats where condition is closely monitored.
The service is calibrated for move-outs. Clients report successful deposit returns with no post-clean intervention or second attendance, regardless of property size or agent involvement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is included in an end of tenancy cleaning service?
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.
Q: Why is end of tenancy cleaning important when moving out?
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.
Q: What makes your end of tenancy cleaning service different?
A: We use a checklist-based cleaning process shaped by years of working with London letting agents. Every part of the property is cleaned to meet actual inspection logic - not just surface tidiness. This includes appliances, lime-prone areas, and hidden zones that typically trigger deductions.
Q: Do you offer any guarantee for the service?
A: Yes. Every end of tenancy cleaning comes with a 72-hour guarantee. If anything is missed and reported within this period, we’ll return for a re-clean free of charge - subject to access.
Q: What happens if the final inventory inspection fails?
A: If a missed detail leads to inspection failure, and the issue is reported within our 72-hour guarantee window, we will re-clean the affected areas at no extra cost. Refunds are not offered, but resolution is always a priority.
Q: Are the cleaners insured in case something goes wrong?
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.
Q: How long does end of tenancy cleaning usually take?
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 only once the full checklist is covered.
Q: Do I need to be present during the end of tenancy cleaning, or can it be done without me?
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.
Q: What should I do to prepare the property before 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.
Q: Do I need to defrost the freezer before the cleaners arrive?
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.
Q: Do you bring your own cleaning equipment and products?
A: Yes. All materials, tools, and professional-grade cleaning products are provided and included in the price. You don’t need to supply anything.
Q: How many cleaners will attend the job?
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.
Q: Is window cleaning from the outside included?
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.
Q: Do you clean the oven as part of the service?
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.
Q: Do you move furniture to clean behind it?
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.
Q: What access and parking arrangements do I need to make?
A: You must ensure there is parking within 50–150 metres of the property. If a permit is needed, please arrange it in advance. If no free parking is available, parking and congestion charges must be covered by the client.
Q: What time slots are available for cleaning?
A: We offer 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 are available Monday to Saturday.
Q: What if my property is in a congestion zone?
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.
Q: Do you wash painted walls or ceilings during end of tenancy cleaning?
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.
Q: Are carpets and upholstery included in the service?
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.
Q: Is carpet cleaning required for check-out?
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.
Q: Is blinds cleaning included in the end of tenancy service?
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.
Q: What’s the difference between light dusting and deep cleaning of blinds?
A: Light dusting removes loose surface dust but may leave residue behind. Deep cleaning involves removing, soaking, or wiping each slat thoroughly - suitable for grease or heavy build-up. Only deep cleaning comes with a quality guarantee.
Q: What areas do you cover for end of tenancy cleaning?
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.
Q: Can you provide the service on weekends?
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.
Q: How much does it cost to add carpet cleaning?
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.
Q: How long does it take for carpets to dry after cleaning?
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.
Q: What’s the difference between end of tenancy cleaning and one-off cleaning?
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.
Q: Can landlords charge for end of tenancy cleaning?
A: Yes. If the property is not cleaned to the standard required by your tenancy agreement, the landlord may deduct the cost of professional cleaning from your deposit. Some landlords also require an invoice as proof.
Q: Why should I pick your company over others?
A: We deliver checklist-based end of tenancy cleaning tailored to London’s rental standards. Our service includes all equipment, a 72-hour re-clean guarantee, and flexible booking - designed to help you pass the inspection and get your full deposit back.
Q: How clean should the property be before the tenancy cleaning starts?
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.
