A CLEAR BRIEF FOR THE HANDOVER
End of Tenancy Cleaning Dulwich
Prepare a furnished home for handover while its household furniture stays. Our Dulwich tenancy cleaning attends to exposed furnishings, kitchen and bathroom fittings and available floors after personal belongings have been removed.
Furniture surfaces and reachable detail
Clear cupboards cleaned inside
Specialist fabric care booked separately
Furniture stays, personal belongings leave
A furnished rental needs care around the pieces that belong to the property. Remove your smaller possessions before the visit so we can dust exposed furniture tops, clean reachable shelves and attend to the surfaces on the handover list. Tell us which items will remain and send the inventory’s cleaning requirements when booking.
Tables, shelving and fitted storage
We clean table surfaces, reachable shelving and the doors and handles included in the appointment, using the care appropriate to their finishes. Empty wardrobe shelves and cupboard bases can be cleaned before they are used again. Personal paperwork and ornaments should be removed from the surfaces booked for attention.
Soft furnishings deserve individual care
A sofa or curtain is a different cleaning task from a hard furniture surface. Mention any required sofa cleaning or curtain care, together with available labels and existing marks. Construction, condition and previous treatments influence suitability. Follow the aftercare given before cushions, covers or other items return to use.
Bedroom surfaces beyond the linen
We dust the exposed bed frame, bedside furniture and reachable ledges included, then clean available flooring. Removing bedding does not clean the mattress itself. If the inventory requires mattress treatment, include that separately and make product guidance available. Bed frames and retained furniture should be described when discussing access.
HOW THE SERVICE WORKS
From booking to the completed clean
Arrange the handover work
Use the inventory or relevant requirements to choose the tasks. Set the date around departing belongings and available access.
Clean rooms and empty storage
Work through the kitchen, bathroom, room surfaces and interiors included. Appliances and fabrics have their own tasks when requested.
Review before the next use
Check the completed cleaning against the task list. Allow the advised aftercare for treated textiles before inspection or occupation.
Kitchen and bathroom work remains essential
We clean the kitchen’s worktops, sink, splashbacks, cupboard fronts and handles, alongside the internal storage or appliances booked. In bathrooms we clean sanitary fittings, taps, mirrors and bath or shower surfaces. These frequently used rooms need their own time beside furniture detail, with heavier deposits reflected in the starting condition.
Floors around the retained pieces
Floors are cleaned after higher surfaces, reaching the areas accessible around the furniture. Discuss any larger movement needed for concealed sections before the visit. Fitted carpets and movable rugs have separate treatment requirements. Once specialist textiles are treated, follow the advised readiness before replacing items or resuming normal room use.

BEFORE YOU BOOK
End of Tenancy Cleaning in Dulwich: questions
Must a furnished home be completely empty?
The furniture belonging to the rental can remain. Remove your personal belongings from the surfaces and storage included in the clean, and explain which larger pieces are staying. Discuss movement if the checklist requires cleaning behind or beneath furniture that restricts access.
Will dusting the sofa clean its upholstery?
Hard furniture surfaces and upholstery require different work. Include sofa treatment explicitly if it is needed for handover, and share labels, construction details or previous treatment information available. The care selected depends on the fabric and condition, with specific aftercare provided for the job.
Can the wardrobes be cleaned inside?
Yes, request the interior compartments and leave them clear of clothing and personal items. We clean reachable shelves, bases and corners through their finish. Keeping storage empty until inspection also avoids introducing new contents across surfaces that have just been cleaned.
Should bedding be removed for mattress cleaning?
Arrange mattress treatment separately and follow the preparation guidance supplied. Product labels, access around the bed and existing stains are useful information. After treatment, wait until the mattress is ready under its actual aftercare instructions before putting bedding back on.
What happens to permanent marks or damaged furniture?
Cleaning addresses dirt and treatable residue; it does not repair chips, scratches or worn upholstery. Mention existing damage and earlier stain treatments before the visit. A mark may remain where the material has changed permanently, so repair concerns should be raised separately.
How is a furnished tenancy clean priced?
Rooms, starting condition, furniture detail, storage interiors and appliance tasks determine the workload. Specialist fabric treatments add their own time and care requirements. Send the inventory and explain retained pieces when calling so the quote reflects the actual handover cleaning required.
