End of Tenancy Cleaning Prices
Starting prices based on property size. Final quote depends on condition, furnished status and any add-ons — we'll always confirm before booking.
Always included in the price:
Why "from" matters
Our starting prices assume a property in reasonable condition. Heavily soiled properties, unusually large rooms, or furnished tenancies with multiple appliances take longer — and we price honestly for what we actually encounter.
Many providers advertise a low headline price but charge separately for the oven, internal windows, and cupboards. At Multrex, these are always included. Compare the complete scope, not just the opening number.
Cleaning and Repairs Coordinated for the Next Tenancy
Prepare the property against an agreed cleaning scope, with oven cleaning, internal windows and radiators or wall heaters included in the standard end-of-tenancy service. Where repairs, decorating or clearance are also required, we can scope those separately and sequence the work before the final clean.
Landlords and letting agents receive clear confirmation of the work completed and any condition issues affecting the result. Carpet cleaning and additional services are itemised according to the quotation; cleaning scope is agreed in advance and deposit decisions remain subject to the tenancy and inventory process.
Explore coordinated void property repairs →What's Included
Every end of tenancy clean covers the entire property from top to bottom. Nothing important is left out or treated as an optional extra at the last minute.
What's Not Included
The following fall outside the standard clean. Most can be arranged alongside the booking — we'll always explain this before confirming.
End of Tenancy vs Deep Cleaning
A deep clean is a thorough reset of a lived-in property. An end of tenancy clean is a different discipline — structured around the check-out inventory and the standard a landlord or agent expects to find. Here's the practical difference:
End of Tenancy Clean
- Covers every room in full — empty or furnished
- Inside cupboards, drawers and built-in storage
- Oven interior — always included, not optional
- Appliance interiors (fridge, freezer)
- Window glass inside throughout
- Structured around the check-in inventory standard
- Cleaning receipt available for deposit purposes
- Designed for an unoccupied property ready for inspection
Standard Deep Clean
- –Cleans accessible surfaces around belongings
- –Cupboard interiors typically optional extras
- –Oven often quoted separately
- –Appliance interiors usually optional
- –Windows may not be included by default
- –Thorough reset without inventory compliance context
- –No formal receipt for deposit purposes
- –Designed for an occupied or recently vacated property
If you are leaving a rental property, always book an end of tenancy clean — not a standard or deep clean. The scope, methodology and documentation are different.
Every Room, Every Surface
A proper end of tenancy clean works through every surface in sequence, using the check-out inventory as a guide where one is provided.
Kitchen
The kitchen receives the most intensive attention — it's where most deposit disputes originate. Oven cavity, grill, hob and extractor cleaned thoroughly. Cupboard interiors, shelves and door hinges included. Fridge and freezer emptied and cleaned. Taps, sinks, splashbacks descaled. Worktops, tile grout and extractor filters degreased.
Bathrooms & En Suites
Scrubbed and disinfected throughout. Limescale removed from showerheads, taps and screen glass. Toilet including cistern and behind the pan. Tile grout scrubbed. Silicone sealant cleaned. Bathroom cabinets inside and out. Mirrors polished. Flooring mopped streak-free.
Bedrooms & Living Areas
Dusted top to bottom — ceiling corners, light fittings, window sills, furniture surfaces and skirting boards. Wardrobes, drawers and built-in storage inside and out. Light switches, sockets and door handles wiped. Internal window panes and frames cleaned. Radiators wiped. Hard floors mopped; carpets vacuumed (extraction available as add-on).
Hallways, Stairs & Communal Areas
Examined closely during inventory checks, yet often overlooked. Carpeted stairs vacuumed tread by tread. Banisters and spindles wiped. Skirting boards along stair walls. Hard-floor hallways mopped. Under-stairs storage wiped out. High-touch door handles and switches cleaned.
Furnished vs Unfurnished Properties
The scope and time required differs between furnished and unfurnished properties — we price accordingly.
Unfurnished Properties
Without furniture in the way, we reach every corner of floors, skirting boards and walls far more thoroughly. Empty properties are typically quicker to clean to a high standard. Ensure all belongings are removed before the clean — anything left behind reduces what we can access.
Furnished Properties
Furnished lets require additional time and care. Sofas and chairs vacuumed and spot-cleaned. Beds stripped (fresh linen is the tenant's responsibility), mattress surfaces vacuumed. Dining furniture wiped. Mirrors and frames dusted. Where the inventory noted furniture condition at check-in, we clean to that benchmark.
Tenants, Landlords and Agents
Each party in the rental chain has different priorities at move-out. We work with all three.
Tenants
The deposit is often the largest single financial stake in a move. A professional clean reduces the risk of cleaning-related deductions and provides documented evidence that the property was returned in good condition. Many landlords and agents require a professional cleaning receipt — we can provide one.
We cannot guarantee deposit outcomes — these depend on landlord and agent decisions, pre-existing conditions, and factors beyond the clean. We clean to a professional standard and document it.
Landlords
Void time costs money. The faster a property is cleaned and ready to photograph and relet, the better. We work efficiently to turn properties around, flag maintenance issues spotted during the clean, and can co-ordinate related work — repairs, painting, carpet cleaning, garden — in the same void window through one contact.
Letting & Estate Agents
Inventory check-out dates are fixed — the clean must happen in the window between tenant vacating and clerk arriving. We discuss availability for the required window, liaise directly with tenants on access where agreed, provide receipts for your records, and can handle multiple properties across a portfolio consistently across Thurrock, Havering and East London.
For Agents & Property Managers
End of Tenancy Cleaning Across Your Portfolio
One tenant clean is straightforward. Managing multiple properties, checkout dates and contractors across a portfolio is where coordination becomes the real challenge.
The problems agents tell us about
- →Checkout dates that move at short notice — cleaners who won't flex
- →Cleaning contractors who aren't available when properties fall vacant
- →Having to chase multiple separate contractors for cleaning, carpets, and repairs
- →Inconsistent quality across different properties or cleaners
- →Tenants who don't clean before leaving and no fast solution ready
- →Receipts and documentation not provided reliably for deposit disputes
- →Keys left at the office — no reliable collection and return process
- →Having to start from scratch with a new property every time
What Multrex can offer your agency
- Cleaning, carpet extraction, lock changes, repairs and garden co-ordinated through one contact
- Consistent scope and quality across all properties in your instruction
- Cleaning receipts provided as standard for deposit protection records
- Key collection and return from your office where practical
- Ability to work within the checkout window — we understand the timing pressures
- A single point of contact rather than multiple contractor relationships
- Maintenance work flagged during the clean reported back to you
- Responsive to short-notice requirements across our service area
Managing multiple properties?
One letting-agent relationship can represent many properties across multiple years. We're happy to discuss how we can support your portfolio rather than quoting job by job.
Discuss Agent Support →What Inventory Clerks Actually Look For
Cleaning-related deductions are the most common deposit dispute in the rental sector. The areas below are consistently flagged in check-out reports — our clean is specifically structured to address every one.
A note on deposits: We clean to a professional, inventory-referenced standard designed to minimise cleaning-related deductions. We cannot control a landlord's subjective assessment, pre-existing conditions, or factors unrelated to the clean — but we document the work thoroughly and provide a receipt on request.
How to Prepare for Your End of Tenancy Clean
Following these steps makes the job faster, more thorough, and more likely to meet the check-out standard in a single visit.
Remove all belongings first
Schedule the clean after your furniture and possessions are out. Cleaning around boxes and furniture means floors, corners and skirting boards simply can't be reached properly.
Empty and defrost the fridge and freezer
Turn off and defrost at least 24 hours before the clean. A fridge still running or containing ice can't be cleaned properly inside.
Empty all cupboards and drawers
Leave nothing inside cupboards, kitchen drawers or bathroom cabinets. We clean inside everything — but we need it empty to do so properly.
Arrange keys and access clearly
Confirm key handover details in advance. If you won't be present, let us know where to collect and return keys. Restricted access on the day delays the clean.
Share the inventory if you have it
Your check-in inventory sets the benchmark you'll be judged against. Sending it to us in advance means we can focus on exactly what will be inspected.
Let us know about heavy soiling
If the oven is very heavily used, the bathroom has persistent mould, or carpets are badly stained, tell us beforehand. It allows us to plan accurately and avoid surprises on the day.
Ensure power and water are available
The clean requires access to electricity and water throughout. Make sure supplies are not cut off before the clean is complete.
Book before the check-out inspection
Allow at least a day between the clean and the inventory check-out — not the same morning. If something needs attention, you'll have time to resolve it.
More Than the Clean — Complete Property Turnarounds
For landlords, agents and property managers, the end of tenancy clean is often just the start of the void window. Multrex can co-ordinate the wider work so everything happens in the same period — one call, one point of contact.
This isn't about adding unnecessary work. It's about making the turnaround faster and the property genuinely ready to relet — not just clean.
Hot water extraction after the main clean — essential where the tenancy agreement requires it.
Minor repairs, fixings and loose fittings — dealt with before viewings start.
Scuffs, marks, full repaints — if the walls need it, we can arrange it in the same void.
New tenants, new keys. Lock changes can be scoped alongside the clean, with timing agreed in advance.
Overgrown or cluttered outdoor space sorted before viewings.
Items left behind removed before the clean so every area can be reached properly.
Cleaning remains the primary service. The above are co-ordinated alongside the clean for landlords and agents who need a complete turnaround — they are not bundled in automatically.
Getting the Sequence Right
When a void requires more than just cleaning, the order in which work happens matters. Getting it wrong creates rework. Getting it right means each trade can do its job properly without undoing the previous one.
Clearance & waste removal
Furniture, belongings and builder rubble removed before any other work begins. Gives all subsequent trades a clear space to work in.
Repairs and maintenance
Plastering, carpentry, plumbing and handyman work completed before decorating or cleaning. Dusty and messy trades must come before the clean.
Painting & decorating
Carried out after repairs are complete and before the final clean. Decorating creates dust and paint splatter that the cleaning removes.
End of tenancy clean
The main clean after all dusty trades have finished. Clears post-work debris, dust, and any remaining deposit-related areas throughout the property.
Carpet cleaning
Where required, carpet extraction is done after the end of tenancy clean — not before, which would risk re-soiling from post-clean activity.
Final check and handover
Property photographed, documented and ready for viewings, check-in, or marketing.
The co-ordination advantage
When Multrex handles multiple services in the same void, we sequence them correctly without the landlord or agent having to manage the dependencies. Each contractor arrives at the right stage — not before the previous trade has finished.
What Affects the Final Price
Starting prices reflect typical properties in reasonable condition. The final quote is based on the actual work involved — we don't charge a flat rate regardless of what we find.
Property size
Bedrooms and bathrooms are the primary driver. More rooms, more surfaces, more time — reflected in the quote.
Furnished or unfurnished
Furnished properties take longer — each piece of furniture needs attention, particularly wardrobes, sofas and dining sets.
Condition of the property
A well-maintained tenancy takes considerably less time than a property that hasn't been cleaned in months. We price based on what we actually encounter.
Oven condition
Heavy baked-on carbon takes significantly longer than a lightly used oven. The oven is always included — but the time required varies with the condition.
Access and logistics
Key collection, restricted parking, or upper-floor access without a lift may carry a small addition. We confirm this in the quote, not on the day.
Add-on services
Carpet extraction, external window cleaning or waste clearance are quoted separately and confirmed before booking.

Our Process
What You Can Expect
From your first call to the finished job, here is how our end of tenancy cleaning service works.
Send us the property size, your check-out date, and the inventory if you have it. The more detail you share, the more accurate your quote.
We confirm the scope, price and booking date. For furnished properties we note which items need particular attention.
On the day, we work room by room in a fixed sequence — kitchen and bathrooms first, then bedrooms, living areas, hallways and stairs — so nothing is missed.
Kitchen grease, oven residue, limescale and bathroom silicone receive extended attention — the areas most likely to generate check-out observations.
We complete a final walkthrough before leaving — checking each room against the expected inventory standard, including inside cupboards, appliances and storage.
If your landlord or agent raises a specific concern about an area we were engaged to clean, contact us promptly and we'll review it with you.
Insider Advice
Helpful Hints & Tips
Book after removals, not before
An empty property can be cleaned to a far higher standard. Schedule the clean after your belongings are out and before the check-out inspection — cleaning around furniture means corners and floors can't be reached properly.
Check your inventory report
Your check-in inventory sets the benchmark. Sending it to us before the clean means we focus on exactly what the inspection will scrutinise.
Don't underestimate the oven
The oven is the single most-flagged item in check-out reports. Ours always includes a full inside-oven clean — always confirm this with any provider, as many treat it as a paid extra.
Allow time before the check-out
Book for the day before the inventory check-out, not the morning of it. If anything needs a second pass, you'll have time without the clock running out.
Our Cleaning Satisfaction Guarantee
If any area included in your clean does not meet the agreed standard, notify us within 24 hours of completion and we will return to re-clean the specific area at no additional charge. This covers Multrex workmanship on the agreed scope — it does not extend to pre-existing staining, damage present before the clean, areas excluded from the scope, or issues arising from subsequent use of the property.
- Re-clean guarantee on any included area not meeting standard
- Notification within 24 hours of completion
- Covers our workmanship — not pre-existing conditions
- Does not guarantee landlord deposit return (subject to inventory assessment)
