Move-in and pre-tenancy cleans
Move-in cleaning in Liverpool.
Prepping a flat for the next tenant, or picking up keys to somewhere the last lot never bothered to clean? We take it to the condition the check-in report records, so the tenancy opens on a clean sheet with no argument down the line. Priced off the same ladder, from £130.
Checked September 2026.
For landlords, agents and incoming tenants across Liverpool. One published ladder. Timestamped photos of every room.
What a move-in clean is for
Prepare the property, not hand it back.
End of tenancy work is about leaving a property. A move-in clean is about receiving one. The job on the ground is the same, but the intent is different: you are setting the condition a new occupant starts from, rather than proving what you left behind.
That opening condition matters because the check-in report is written off it. Whatever the clerk photographs on day one becomes the yardstick at the far end of the tenancy. Get the place genuinely clean before that report is drawn up and both parties benefit: the tenant inherits a fair baseline, the landlord gets an unarguable one.
- Taken to the condition the check-in report will record
- A fair opening baseline for tenant and landlord alike
- Worked off our full checkout list, not a lighter one
- Charged on the published ladder, no separate move-in tariff
- Every room photographed on completion, timestamped
- Total fixed in writing before we start
If you are a landlord or agent
Cut the void, sharpen the listing.
Empty weeks eat your yield, and a tired-looking flat photographs badly and lingers. Booking us in before the viewings and the marketing shots means the property is at its sharpest exactly when prospective tenants are judging it, so it moves quicker off the portals.
Fresh out of a refurb? We handle the aftermath the trades leave: fine building dust on every ledge, splashes of paint, plaster grit ground into the floors. Across a managed patch we hold the same finish on each unit, so the standard does not swing depending on who moved out last. Volume work is priced per property on a quick call.
- Sharpest condition for viewings and marketing photos
- Shorter void, quicker turnaround onto the market
- Post-refurb dust, paint and plaster grit cleared
- A held standard across every unit in a portfolio
If you are the incoming tenant
You should not inherit someone else’s grime.
Signing for a place and finding it left in a state is a rough start, and no tenant should burn their first days off attacking baked-on grease left by a stranger. We reset the property to a condition you would happily move your own things into.
There is a deposit angle too. Snap every room on the day you collect the keys, get us in, and you hold dated proof of the state you took it in. Where the check-in report logs the place as grubby from the outset, that is a charge that cannot land on you at the end.
The scope of the clean
Everything on the checkout list, on an empty shell.
The room-by-room coverage matches a full checkout: kitchen and the insides of every cupboard, bathroom scrubbed and descaled, skirtings, switch plates and window tracks, then the whole floor plan vacuumed and mopped. An unfurnished property is the easiest version of this job, since nothing blocks the corners.
Appliance deep cleans sit outside the base price: reckon on the oven from £55 and the fridge or freezer from £25. Between tenants the oven is nearly always worth it, because it is the first thing the new occupant opens. Whatever you pick, the total is fixed in writing before we start.
- Kitchen, cupboard interiors, every surface and floor
- Bathroom descaled, tiles and fittings brought up
- Skirtings, sockets, door frames and window tracks
- Full floor plan vacuumed, hard floors mopped
- Oven deep clean add-on from £55
- Fridge or freezer add-on from £25
Price and when to book
Off the ladder, set by bedroom count.
You pay the published figures, with nothing added for a move-in: studio £130, 1-bed £155, 2-bed £190, 3-bed £240, 4-bed £310, and £390 upward for 5 bedrooms or more. Whether the keys are going out or coming in, the number is the same.
Slot it into the window between the outgoing tenant leaving and the new one arriving, and ideally after any building work wraps so we sweep up the last of the mess. Send the address, the size and how we get in, and we pin a date and a price.

Feedback from tenants, landlords and letting agents across Liverpool.
Booked an end of tenancy clean before handing the keys back. The team were thorough and the flat looked spotless by the end. Got the full deposit back with no quibbles from the agent.
Quick to reply, clear on the price up front, and they stuck to it. The kitchen and bathroom came up like new. Would book again.

FAQ
Move-in cleaning questions
What landlords, agents and new tenants ask before they book.
How does a move-in clean differ from end of tenancy cleaning?
On the ground the work is identical, room by room to inventory standard. What changes is when it happens and why: a move-in clean readies a property for the next occupant, whereas an end of tenancy clean settles the outgoing one. We run the same checklist for both.
Who foots the bill, the landlord or the tenant?
It can be either. Landlords and agents cover it when they turn a property between lets or tidy up after works. An incoming tenant covers it when they have walked into a mess and want it sorted before they unpack. Whoever pays gets the price in writing up front and an itemised receipt after.
Is it better to clean before the furniture goes in?
Much better. An empty shell lets us reach every corner, skirting and floor with nothing in the way, so wherever possible book us for the gap before the new tenant brings their belongings in.
How long after building work should we leave it?
Wait until the trades have finished and cleared out. A repaint or refit scatters dust, paint and plaster residue across everything, so treat the clean as the closing step before viewings or the new tenant, not something to overlap with the work.
How do you get into the property?
We sort access with whoever holds the keys, be that the landlord, the agent or the incoming tenant. Tell us the arrangement when you book and we build the slot around it.
Is a move-in clean covered by the guarantee?
Our 48-hour re-clean guarantee is for end of tenancy cleans, so it does not cover a move-in clean. A move-in clean is still worked off our full checkout list, with the total fixed in writing before we start and every room photographed on completion.
What does a move-in clean cost?
Exactly the checkout ladder: studio £130, 1-bed £155, 2-bed £190, 3-bed £240, 4-bed £310, and from £390 for 5 or more bedrooms. Appliance cleans are optional extras. Give us the property and we quote a fixed figure.
