    Overview

    A new tenancy clean for landlords and agents

    We’ve completed 1 pre-tenancy clean in Durham so far, in DH7 Deerness, and our teams work across the rest of County Durham. The typical final price for a pre-tenancy clean across the UK has been £244, extras included, with the middle half of customers paying £206–£316. Durham customers have also booked us for 32 end of tenancy cleaning and 26 carpet cleaning jobs.

    A pre-tenancy clean gets a property spotless before new tenants move in, so the check-in inventory records a clean home and there’s a clear standard to hand back at the end of the tenancy.

    Landlords and letting agents book it between tenancies, and new tenants book a move-in clean when they want a fresh start. Covered by our 72-hour guarantee.

    Pre-Tenancy Cleaning is also known as check-in clean or move-in cleaning, and some people call it a clean before tenants move in.
