End of tenancy cleaning for Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats in Catford
Most homes in Catford are Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats, and each type has its own cleaning challenges. Period terraces have sash windows, picture rails, original fireplaces and tiled hallways that collect dust. Letting agents in period conversions check skirting boards, sash window runners, fireplace surrounds and the kitchen extractor, so these are on our checklist as standard.
In conversions we pay extra attention to shared entrances, steep stairs and small kitchens where grease builds up fast. From streets near the Broadway Theatre to the quieter roads around them, our checklist stays the same.
Tips before your end of tenancy in Catford
These simple steps help our Catford team get the best result in the time booked.
- Book your clean for after the removal van has left and before the check-out inspection, so every cupboard and floor in your Catford home is reachable.
- Leave the keys, alarm code and any parking permit details in your booking notes; our Catford team will handle the rest.
- If your landlord or agent flags anything, forward the report to us within 72 hours and we will return to Catford to re-clean it free.
- Read your check-in inventory before we arrive and tell us about anything the agent noted, such as marks on walls or a stained carpet.
