End of tenancy cleaning in the UK is extremely important when it comes to the lettings market and ensuring your lettings deposit is safely returned to you following the end of a lettings contract. You can obviously tackle the cleaning yourself, however for the small cost get the professionals in to do it for you.
Before a deposit is returned to the tenant a check out Inventory has to take place which is compared to the original inventory complied at the start of the rental period. The Inventory clerk will make notes and highlight areas of a property which is not cleaned to satisfactory standard. If there are any cleaning issues the landlord could deduct money from the deposit.
Let’s assume you have cleaned your rental property well and not chosen to hire a professional cleaning company. Does the property have carpets? If they do please do not try and clean them yourselves by hiring a carpet cleaning machine from your local supermarket or DIY store. These machines can easily damage the carpet and cost you a few hundred pounds as the carpets will need to be replaced. Below are some domestic cleaning tips.
So what cleaning products do you need to get the job done. Under no circumstances use bleach, the damage that can be done with bleach is very high. Stick to the following products and you should be ok.
Here’s a brief list of the cleaning products you will need, these can be picked up at a discount home retail store that have sprung up in the big shopping centres or you could try ebay.

Cleaning is all about having the right attitude, keeping your clothes clean and using plenty of elbow. There’s no hard skills involved in cleaning. Whenever you clean an item or piece of furniture make sure you dry it fully using the kitchen roll. Work hard at removing the lime scale off taps etc in the bathroom and dry any water so no marks are left when the water dries.
