Cleaning at the end of a tenancy is a crucial step in ensuring that you receive your full deposit back from your landlord. It is essential to leave the property in the same condition as when you moved in, taking into account normal wear and tear. To effectively clean at the end of a tenancy, there are several key areas you need to focus on.
Start by decluttering the space and removing any personal belongings. This will make it easier to clean and will also give you a clearer idea of what areas need attention. Next, tackle the kitchen, which is often one of the most important areas for landlords. Make sure to clean all surfaces, including counter-tops, inside cabinets and drawers, the oven, and the refrigerator. Don't forget to clean the floors and walls as well.
In the bathroom, pay special attention to the toilet, sink, and shower or bathtub. Use a disinfectant to clean these areas thoroughly and remove any limescale or mould. Also, don't forget to clean the mirrors and any tiles.
To get your full deposit returned
In the living areas and bedrooms, vacuum the carpets and mop the floors. Dust all surfaces, including light fixtures, skirting boards, and window sills. Clean any upholstery, such as sofas or armchairs, and make sure to wash all bedding and curtains.
Finally, don't forget about the exterior of the property. Sweep the porch or patio, clean any outdoor furniture, and make sure the garden or yard is tidy.
By following these tips and thoroughly cleaning the property at the end of your tenancy, you can increase the likelihood of getting your full deposit back from your landlord. It's also a considerate gesture towards the next tenants who will be moving in.
