Move-in cleaning for a mix of period terraces, semis and modern flats in Custom House
Homes across Custom House are mainly a mix of period terraces, semis and modern flats. Homes here range from period terraces to modern flats, so we adapt our checklist to each property. Our teams plan each visit around the property, not a one-size-fits-all routine. We follow the agent's inventory room by room, whatever the property, so you have the best chance of getting your full deposit back.
We confirm the property type, access and parking when you book, so the right team arrives. We know the area around ExCeL London well.

- 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.
- Take meter readings before you move in.
- Check parking and access in Custom House for moving day and for our team.
