Move In Cleaning prices in Kensington and Chelsea

What affects the price in Kensington and Chelsea?

Prices for move in cleaning in Kensington and Chelsea are fixed by the size of the job, so you know the cost before we arrive. The main factors are the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and any extras you add such as carpet cleaning, an oven clean or key collection.

Homes here are mostly mansion-block flats, new-build apartments and serviced lets, so it is worth telling us about features such as high-rise glazing and compact kitchens that need detailing in your booking notes. If a property is much larger or in a very different condition from the description, we will always talk to you before changing anything.

3. Checklist cleanA trained team works through our inventory-grade checklist, room by room, with professional equipment and products.

5. 72-hour guaranteeIf your agent or landlord raises a cleaning issue within 72 hours, we return and put it right free of charge.

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 Kensington and Chelsea

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 Kensington and Chelsea, as most tenancies change over then — booking a week or two ahead secures your preferred date.

Getting your deposit back in Kensington and Chelsea

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.
