End of Tenancy Cleaning Services

Pricing for end-of-tenancy cleaning is almost always based on the size of the property, typically measured by the number of bedrooms. The national average cost in the UK ranges from approximately £170 to £415+, but this can vary significantly depending on location and additional services.

Key Pricing Breakdown by Property Size:

• Studio/1-Bedroom Flat: £80 - £220

• 2-Bedroom House/Flat: £120 - £280

• 3-Bedroom House/Flat: £220 - £390

• 4-5 Bedroom House: £350 - £440+

• 6+ Bedroom House: £415+

  
  

  
  

Important Factors Influencing Cost:

• Location: Prices in London and other major cities are consistently higher, with rates often 20%-30% more than the national average.

• Condition of the Property: The price can increase if the property has not been well-maintained and requires more intensive cleaning.

• Additional Services: The base price typically does not include services like professional carpet cleaning, oven cleaning, or outside window cleaning. These are almost always charged separately.

• Booking Time: Last-minute bookings (e.g., same-day or next-day) may incur a higher charge.

  
  

  
  

Average Hourly Rates: The average hourly rate for a team of end-of-tenancy cleaners is generally between £20 - £30 per hour across the UK.

Deep Cleaning Services

Deep cleaning services are typically priced based on the total time required or as a flat rate for the entire property. The average cost for a professional deep clean ranges from £150 to over £500 for larger or more complex jobs.

Key Pricing Breakdown by Property Size:

• Small Flat or Studio: £95 - £300

• Medium-Sized House: £190 - £400

• Large or Heavily Soiled House: £400 - £546+

  
  

Pricing Models:

• Hourly Rate: The average hourly rate for a deep clean is around £25 - £31 per hour. For example, a 6-hour deep clean could cost approximately £186.

• Flat Rate: Some companies offer a fixed price based on the property's size and condition, which can provide a clear budget from the start.

Important Factors Influencing Cost:

• Condition: The current level of cleanliness and build-up in the property is the biggest factor. A house that has not been professionally cleaned in a long time will take more time and effort, increasing the final cost.

  
  

• Specific Tasks: The price can vary significantly depending on what tasks are included, such as:

  • Oven Cleaning: £30 - £100

  • Carpet Cleaning (per room): £30 - £100

  • Upholstery Cleaning (per item): £20 - £80

    
    

• Location: As with end-of-tenancy cleaning, rates in London tend to be higher than the national average.
