Shortlands End of Tenancy Cleaning | Vetted Cleaners

Moving out of a property in Shortlands, Bromley? Our end of tenancy cleaning is built around the checklists letting agents in Shortlands use at check-out, so your deposit conversation starts on the right foot.

Around Shortlands we mostly clean 1930s semis, terraced family homes and modern flats. Our cleaners are briefed on driveways, side gates and on-street parking before they set off, and they know to give through-lounges, conservatories and busy family kitchens extra time.

The Bromley picture: London's largest borough by area runs from Victorian villas in Beckenham to semi-rural homes towards Biggin Hill. Family houses usually mean more bathrooms and bigger kitchens, which is why our tenancy prices are set by bedroom count.

End of Tenancy Cleaning in Shortlands, room by room

Kitchen

The kitchen is where most deposit deductions start, so it gets the most time. We degrease the oven inside and out, soak the racks and trays, clean the hob, splashback and extractor filter, then empty-clean every cupboard, drawer and shelf. The fridge and freezer are cleaned inside, seals included, and the sink and taps are descaled until they shine.

Bathrooms

Limescale is the second most common note on a check-out report. We descale taps, shower heads, screens and tiles, clean grout lines, wash the bath panel and the toilet from the base upwards, and polish mirrors and chrome. Extractor fan covers, window sills and the floor behind the toilet are included.

Bedrooms

Wardrobes and drawers are cleaned inside and out, skirting boards and door frames are wiped, radiators are dusted front and back where reachable, and light switches and sockets are cleaned. Carpets are vacuumed edge to edge, including under the bed space once furniture is empty. Customers around Bromley and Beckenham often ask us to make this a priority.

Living areas and hallways

We work from high to low: tops of doors and frames, picture rails, light fittings and window frames first, then surfaces, skirting and floors. Hallway cupboards, meter cupboards and stair rails are cleaned, and hard floors are vacuumed and mopped.

Windows and final check

Interior glass, frames and sills are cleaned throughout. Before we leave, the team lead walks the property against our checklist, photographing key rooms so you have a record of the finish for your letting agent. Across Bromley this is the area letting agents and hosts check first.

When to book end of tenancy cleaning in Shortlands

The best time for end of tenancy cleaning in Shortlands is after the removal van has gone and before your inspection, ideally the day before. Month-end dates book up fastest across Bromley, so reserve your slot early and add key collection if you have already handed keys to the agent.

Getting your deposit back in Shortlands

In England your deposit must be protected in a government-approved scheme (DPS, TDS or mydeposits), and any deduction has to be justified against your check-in inventory. Landlords can expect the property back in the same condition, allowing for fair wear and tear — not in better condition than when you moved in.

Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, a landlord cannot require you to pay for a professional clean as a condition of the tenancy. What they can require is that the property is returned as clean as it was at the start. A professional end of tenancy clean is often the simplest way to meet that standard, and our 72-hour re-clean guarantee means any agent feedback is handled quickly.

Tip: photograph each room after the clean and keep your receipt. If a dispute arises, the deposit scheme's free resolution service will look at this evidence.

Will I get my deposit back?

Do I need to be at the property?

No. Most customers leave keys with the agent, a concierge or a key safe. Add key collection at checkout and we will arrange it.

Is the property meant to be empty?

Yes, for the best result it should be empty of furniture and belongings. If items remain, let us know in the notes.

Can you clean at weekends in Shortlands?

Yes. We clean seven days a week across Shortlands and Bromley, including Saturdays and Sundays, with morning, midday and afternoon arrival windows.

How quickly can you come to Shortlands?
