The Ultimate Guide to End-of-Tenancy Cleaning in London

Moving house is always a big task, and making sure your old place is left in perfect condition can add extra stress to the process. Whether you’re a tenant aiming to secure your full deposit or a landlord getting the property ready for new occupants, a thorough clean is essential. At Busy Bee Clean, we provide professional end of tenancy cleaning services throughout London, delivering spotless results that meet the high standards of landlords and letting agents alike.

Why End-of-Tenancy Cleaning Matters

End-of-tenancy cleaning isn’t just about a quick tidy-up—it’s a deep, thorough clean that covers every room, appliance, and hidden corner. If you’re hoping to get your full deposit back (and avoid any last-minute stress with your landlord or letting agent), making sure the place is spotless is a must. Most tenancy agreements in London expect the property to be returned in top condition—and that’s where we come in.

• Jet Pressure Washing – Perfect for driveways, paving, and heavily soiled outdoor surfaces.

At Busy Bee Clean, we arrive fully prepared—with all the professional-grade equipment and high-quality cleaning products needed to deliver a deep and thorough clean. You won’t need to supply a thing. We take care of it all, so you can rest easy knowing your property is in safe hands. And for that extra peace of mind, we’re fully insured—because your trust and security matter to us just as much as the quality of our work.

How to Prepare for Your End of Tenancy Clean

To help us deliver the best results, here are a few simple steps you can take before our team arrives:

• Remove personal belongings: Please ensure the property is empty so our cleaners can access all areas.  
• Defrost the freezer: This allows us to clean it properly without delays.  
• Check water, heating, and electricity: Make sure these are connected, as we’ll need both to carry out a full clean.
• Share any special instructions: Let us know about stubborn stains, fragile surfaces, or any areas needing extra attention.
• Tell us about any problem areas: If you know of any stains, damage, or specific concerns (like limescale or mould), just let us know. We’ll pay extra attention to those spots.
• Secure parking if possible: If your property has parking, reserving a space close to the entrance helps us bring in equipment quickly and start on time.
• Access: Provide us with any information regarding the key collection, general access, barriers, codes or alarm systems.
