Move-in cleaning for modern apartments and new-build blocks in Colindale
Most homes in Colindale are modern apartments and new-build blocks, and each type has its own cleaning challenges. New-build flats have open-plan kitchens, glass showers, hard floors and lots of chrome and glossy surfaces. Agents for new-build flats check glass showers, extractor filters, integrated appliances and balcony doors, so we clean all of these as standard.
We book lifts, fobs and concierge access ahead, and use streak-free methods on glass, gloss and stainless steel. Whether you live near the RAF Museum and the new-build blocks around Colindale Avenue or on a quiet residential street, the standard is the same.
Tips before your move-in clean in Colindale
A little preparation helps your clean go smoothly and makes sure the time is spent where it matters most.
- Line kitchen drawers and shelves after the clean if you like, as everything will be dry and fresh.
- Change the locks and test smoke alarms on moving day.
- Ask the agent or seller for appliance manuals so you know how to use them once they are clean.
- Add carpet cleaning if the previous occupant had pets.
