Tenancies across the London Borough of City of London turn over fast, and landlords around EC1, EC2, EC3 and EC4 expect a property handed back spotless. Our move in cleaning teams work to an inventory-grade checklist from top to bottom.
Around City of London we mostly clean mansion-block flats, new-build apartments and serviced lets. Our cleaners are briefed on concierge desks, parking permits and tight lift schedules before they set off, and they know to give high-rise glazing and compact kitchens that need detailing extra time.
What to expect in City of London: most homes in the Square Mile are apartments, from the Barbican estate to newer towers near Aldgate. Central London check-out inspections are often booked straight after key handback, so we favour morning arrivals and allow time for concierge sign-in.

How to prepare for your clean
- Remove all your belongings and furniture you are taking before we arrive.
- Make sure electricity and hot water are on, as we need both.
- Defrost the freezer the day before if possible.
- Tell us about parking permits or restrictions on your street.
- Keep your check-in inventory handy to compare with the finished property.
- Book the clean for the day before your check-out, so any feedback can be fixed in time.
When to book move in cleaning in City of London
Book your move in cleaning for the day before your check-out inspection. That leaves time for any agent feedback to be fixed under our 72-hour guarantee, and means the property is empty so every cupboard and floor can be reached. The end and start of each month are the busiest times in City of London, as most tenancies change over then — booking a week or two ahead secures your preferred date.
Getting your deposit back in City of London
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.
