Start fresh in your new home
Even when a previous tenant or owner has cleaned, a new home rarely feels truly clean. A move-in clean gives you a hygienic, fresh start before your furniture and boxes arrive, while the rooms are empty and every corner is easy to reach.
What a move-in clean includes
We focus on the places you will use first and the places that are hard to reach once you unpack:
- Kitchen cupboards, drawers and shelves cleaned inside and out before you fill them.
- Oven, hob, fridge and other appliances wiped inside and out.
- Bathrooms sanitised, with limescale removed from taps, tiles and screens.
- Wardrobes and built-in storage cleaned inside.
- Skirting boards, doors, frames, handles, switches and sockets wiped.
- Windows, sills and frames wiped inside.
- Floors vacuumed and mopped throughout.
Timing your clean
The best time for a move-in clean is after you get the keys and before the removal van arrives. If your move is tight, we can clean early on moving day or the day before. Larger homes are cleaned by a team so everything is ready in one visit.
Move-in cleaning across Wandsworth's neighbourhoods
In Balham, Clapham Junction, Earlsfield, Furzedown, Southfields and nearby, homes are mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats. 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 Battersea, Putney, Wandsworth, homes are mostly a mix of period terraces, semis and modern flats. We follow the agent's inventory room by room, whatever the property, so you have the best chance of getting your full deposit back.
In Nine Elms, homes are mostly modern apartments and new-build blocks. Agents for new-build flats check glass showers, extractor filters, integrated appliances and balcony doors, so we clean all of these as standard.
In Roehampton, homes are mostly ex-council houses and low-rise flats. Housing officers and landlords check kitchens, bathrooms and floors first, so we deep clean limescale, cupboards and skirting boards in every room.
