Define the work

Define the service before agreeing to it.

Ask the provider to explain the scope in writing. The service name alone does not confirm inclusions, methods or outcomes.

Priority rooms and surfaces

List kitchens, bathrooms and other rooms separately. Describe the build-up you want addressed and the surfaces involved, rather than relying on the term deep clean alone.

Detailed tasks

Ask about tasks such as skirting boards, reachable fittings, cupboard interiors or appliance interiors. Confirm which are included and what preparation or separate pricing applies.

Limits and specialist work

Identify stains, damage or concerns such as mould before asking for a quote. Ask what the cleaner can safely assess; restoration, hazardous-material work and specialist treatments may require another provider.

Prepare a useful request

What should your request include?

Bring the property details and priorities together before contacting a provider directly.

Plan your quote
  1. Current condition

    Describe grease, dust, soap residue or other build-up and when the area was last cleaned. Relevant photos can help a cleaner assess the scope without promising a particular result.

  2. Materials and finishes

    List delicate surfaces, manufacturer care requirements and damaged areas. Ask the cleaner to confirm suitable methods and any limitations.

  3. Access to the work

    Explain parking, stairs and spaces around furniture or appliances. Agree on what can be moved and who is responsible for moving it.

  4. Priorities and extras

    Rank the tasks and confirm whether the quote is based on time or a defined scope. Ask separately about windows, carpets, ovens and disposal of unwanted items.

Before the visit

Prepare for the agreed work.

Once you arrange work directly, confirm the provider’s instructions for your property.

  • Write down the inclusions

    Agree on a room-by-room task list, exclusions and priorities. Ask how additional work will be approved if the condition differs from the description.

  • Prepare access and surfaces

    Ask what tidying or emptying is needed. Arrange secure access and pets, and identify items that must not be moved.

  • Discuss products and care

    Mention sensitivities, product preferences and special finishes. Confirm who supplies products and equipment and how unsuitable tasks will be handled.

  • Agree on the handover

    Ask how you will review the completed work and raise a concern. Confirm any follow-up terms without assuming every stain or mark can be removed.

FAQ

Deep cleaning questions, answered.

Can I request a quote here?

Not yet. The quote panel is a preview: nothing is sent or saved. Contact a provider you choose directly.

How is deep cleaning different from regular cleaning?

A deep clean usually involves a more detailed agreed scope or attention to build-up, but the term is not a fixed checklist. Ask for the actual rooms and tasks to be listed.

Are ovens, carpets and windows included?

Only if included in your agreement. Ask about each item separately, including accessibility, method and any additional charge.

Will every stain or mark be removed?

Do not assume so. Some marks may relate to wear, damage or materials that need specialist care. Ask the cleaner to explain realistic limits before work starts.

Does deep cleaning include mould removal?

Do not assume it does. Describe the concern before booking and ask whether assessment or work by an appropriate specialist is needed. A standard cleaning quote does not establish that the cause is addressed.

Is a deep clean the same as an end-of-lease clean?

Not necessarily. A move-out clean may need a different checklist and timing. Confirm the property requirements and scope separately; a clean does not guarantee a bond outcome.
