Ideally you should book your end of Tenancy clean to take place 24 hours before your end of Tenancy Inspection is due to take place. Try not to leave it to the last minute and conversely do not book the clean too early. If you book the clean for 3 hours before your property Inspection this invariably leads to problems. Likewise, if you book the clean too early, people may come in and out of the property, dust may settle, dead insects may end up on window sills etc. and so when your Inspection takes place this could potentially result in you incurring additional cleaning charges.

It is human nature to leave everything until the last minute, but if you plan ahead you will avoid the possibility of potential problems. There is a lot to co-ordinate during a move but it can be done. If you need any help or guidance please contact us by phone or email.

At your move out Inspection everything will be checked by an Inventory Clerk/Landlord/Agent. In simple terms an end of Tenancy move out clean covers everything within the property. Of course there are a number of considerations that need to be taken into account. For example if you live on the 32^nd floor of a high rise apartment it is unlikely the external windows can be cleaned(normally this will be the job of the block managing Agent). When booking your end of Tenancy clean we will ask for this information to ensure that both you and we are aware of what may not be included.

It is essential you move all personal belongings prior to the clean getting started. Effectively your property should be completely empty. This will save everyone time and ensure the cleaners can focus entirely on cleaning rather than having to concern themselves if something should be thrown away, moved or left etc. The only items left should be landlord items or belongings which were present when you moved in to the property-NB-check your Inventory if you are unsure-if you cannot find a copy of your move in Inventory ask your Agent or Landlord to send you a copy).

1 Hour A Week has a genuine understanding of the stress and time constraints involved when you are moving home. We give a time of arrival and we stick to it. We have a 15 minute window either side of the appointed time. In the unlikely event of any delays we will keep you informed. If we fall outside of the time agreed we will refund the time lost on a pro rata basis as agreed.

We have worked with tens of thousands of Landlords/Tenants and Agents. Time and again the same oversights and omissions occur. Be it cobwebs, hairs on floors, dust behind furniture, dust on Venetian blinds or washing machine dispenser drawers etc-there is a long list. Our Cleaning Consultants receive comprehensive training before they are sent out on jobs(unlike many of our competitors). They have a set routine to follow and more importantly before signing off a clean they go around the entire property to ensure nothing has been missed.

It is true you could clean the property yourself. But this will just add to the stress of moving home. By outsourcing the cleaning to 1 Hour A Week you will save yourself time, energy and anxiety. Moving home is time consuming and often hurried. This could mean you miss areas which may result in deductions from your deposit. Our 100% satisfaction guarantee will allow you to concentrate on more important things like setting up your new home. Save yourself the stress and sweat by booking our end of Tenancy cleaning service here.

Our years monitoring and researching cleaning companies work showed there was a significant increase in complaints from Tenants/Agents/Landlords/Homeowners following cleaning undertaken on Sundays. We believe our hardworking team deserves time to refresh, enjoy family time at the weekend and to come back to work on Monday morning reinvigorated and Inspired to serve their clients.

If the last day of your Tenancy falls on a Sunday you should speak to your Agent/Landlord to ask for the Check-Out Inspection to take place the next day-Monday. If this is the case we can complete your end of Tenancy clean on the Saturday before, but it is essential you ensure nobody enters the property prior to your Check-Out Inspection taking place on the following Monday. Ideally, if you have already vacated you could arrange for your Check-Out Inspection to take place on the Saturday after the cleaning has been completed. When you give your one or two months notice to vacate your property, start planning immediately. Do not leave things until the last minute. There is lots to do(see our move out guidance and refer to our full guide if you sign up for our end of Tenancy cleaning service). Please feel free to contact us if you require any additional advice or assistance.
