End of tenancy cleaning for Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats in Upper Walthamstow
Most homes in Upper Walthamstow 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.
