    We had builders in for three weeks and the house was absolutely caked in dust — I'm talking inside drawers, on top of door frames, in the light fittings, everywhere. Found a cleaner on here for an after-builders clean and she was unbelievable. Even did inside the cupboards which I hadn't asked for. Took about five hours and the place looked better than before the building work started.…

    Finally a website that's actually about Southend and not just "Essex" where you end up with someone driving from Chelmsford. Booked a one-off clean in Shoeburyness and the cleaner was ten minutes away.

    About time someone built something that covers SS3 properly. Already picked up oven cleans and one-offs through the site.

Common questions

End of tenancy cleaning in Southend — your questions

How much is end of tenancy cleaning in Southend?

Most Southend cleaners quote £180–£220 for a studio or one-bed, £220–£280 for a two-bed, £280–£340 for a three-bed and £340–£400 or more for four bedrooms and up. Carpet cleaning is usually £30–£45 a room on top.

Will the clean pass an inventory or check-out report?

Cleaners listed here work to the standard end-of-tenancy specification used by TDS and DPS inventory clerks — oven, extractor, inside cupboards, limescale and skirtings included. Always confirm the cleaner's re-clean policy in writing before the check-out.

How long does an end of tenancy clean take?

A one-bed flat is typically 4–5 hours for a single cleaner. A two-bed takes 5–7 hours, and a three or four-bed is normally a full day, often with two cleaners working together.

Should the property be empty first?

Yes. Move-out cleans are priced for an empty property with the utilities still on. Furniture, belongings or rubbish left behind slow the job down and are usually quoted separately.

Do I need carpets professionally cleaned?

Only if your tenancy agreement says so or the carpets are marked. Where it is required, hot-water extraction from the same cleaner is cheaper than booking a separate carpet firm and gives you one receipt for the agent.

Can a landlord or agent get a VAT invoice?

Yes. Ask when you enquire — cleaners trading as limited companies invoice with a business name and address, and portfolio landlords often consolidate several properties onto one monthly invoice.

How far ahead should I book?

Two weeks is comfortable, especially at month-end when most tenancies finish. Many cleaners on the site can still fit in a checkout within 48–72 hours if a slot opens.

Do you charge a booking fee or commission?

No. Southend Cleaners is a directory, not an agency. The price the cleaner quotes is the price you pay, and nothing is deducted from them.
