Move out cleaning built around the check-out inventory
At check-out, the landlord or an inventory clerk compares the property with the check-in report, room by room. Grease on the hob, limescale around the taps and dust on skirting boards are the details that get written down. An end of tenancy clean from Tenant Clean is planned around those same check points, so the property is presented as close as possible to the letting agent inventory standard recorded when you moved in.
In England, the Tenant Fees Act 2019 generally stops a landlord from making a tenant pay for professional cleaning as a condition of the tenancy. The tenant does need to return the property in the condition it was let in, allowing for fair wear and tear, and a professional clean is often the most practical way to manage that during a move.
Cleaning with the deposit in mind
Deposits are held in a government-approved protection scheme, and any cleaning deduction has to be justified against the inventory. This is why a move out clean is often called deposit back cleaning: a thorough clean gives you the strongest footing at check-out, although it cannot undo damage or wear recorded separately.
What does an end of tenancy clean include?
Every clean follows a room-by-room checklist in an empty or nearly empty property, so cleaners can reach inside cupboards and along every wall. The full end of tenancy cleaning checklist sets out each task in detail.
Kitchen and appliances
Cupboards and drawers are cleaned inside and out, along with worktops, splashbacks, the sink and taps. The oven, hob and extractor are included, and the fridge and freezer are cleaned inside.
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and toilets are cleaned and descaled, including screens, taps and plugholes. Tiles, mirrors and cabinets are cleaned too.
Bedrooms and living rooms
Skirting boards, doors, switches, sockets and radiators are wiped by hand. Wardrobes and drawers are cleaned inside, carpets are vacuumed and hard floors are mopped.
Windows, halls and stairs
Interior windows, sills and frames are cleaned, and cobwebs are cleared throughout. Landings and staircases get the same attention as the main rooms, banisters included.

Who books end of tenancy cleaners in Newcastle upon Tyne
Tenants moving out
Book the clean for after your belongings have gone and before the check-out appointment. It takes one large job off your list during the move.
Landlords between lets
A full clean between tenants helps the property photograph well for listings and keeps void periods short. It also gives the new check-in inventory a clean starting point.
Letting agents
Agents managing several Newcastle properties can arrange check-out cleans through a single contact. See cleaning for landlords and letting agents.
Student households
Shared houses in Jesmond and Heaton tend to have more bedrooms and busier kitchens than a typical let. Student property cleaning covers the whole house in one booking.

Carpets, upholstery and other extras
Carpet vacuuming is part of every end of tenancy clean. If carpets have visible stains or grey walkways from heavy use, carpet and upholstery cleaning can be added to the same booking, along with sofas, armchairs and mattresses in furnished lets.
The oven does not need adding. Together with the hob and extractor, it is already part of every end of tenancy clean and gets the same detailed treatment as a standalone oven clean.
Do carpets have to be professionally cleaned when you move out?
A tenancy agreement in England generally cannot oblige you to pay for professional carpet cleaning. The carpets do need to be returned in the condition shown on the check-in inventory, allowing for fair wear and tear, so a deep clean is worth considering where marks have built up.
How booking a clean works
Four straightforward steps from your first enquiry to handing back the keys.
Request a quote
Use the form on this page to tell us the service, property size, postcode and the date you have in mind.
Receive your quote
We confirm the price and exactly what is included before anything is booked.
The clean
The property is cleaned room by room to the agreed specification, with kitchens and bathrooms given the most time.
Hand over the keys
The property is ready for check-out, viewings or your move-in day.
Getting the property ready for your clean
The clean works best once the property is empty. Clearing out belongings and rubbish beforehand means cleaners can get inside every cupboard and reach the floor along each wall. If the landlord's furniture is staying, it is cleaned around and underneath where it can be moved safely.
Please check that the electricity and hot water are still connected on the day. Cleaners bring their own equipment and products, and you do not need to be at the property, as access is arranged with you when you book. Mention anything unusual on the quote form, such as heavy grease or pet hair, so the quote reflects the work involved.
Why tenants and agents choose Tenant Clean
A focus on tenancy work
End of tenancy cleaning is the core of the business. Each clean is planned around what an inventory clerk checks, which is a different job from a general tidy.
Based in Newcastle
Cleans take place across Newcastle, Gateshead and North Tyneside, from Tyneside flats and Victorian terraces to Quayside apartments. See the areas covered.
Quotes agreed before booking
Each quote is based on the details of your property and agreed before anything is booked. The pricing page explains what affects the figure.
One point of contact
You deal with one contact from your first enquiry to the finished clean, so access and timing are agreed in one place.
Booking an end of tenancy clean in Newcastle
Do I need to be at the property during the clean?
No. Access is agreed when you book, which suits tenants who are busy with the move itself. You only need to make sure the electricity and hot water are on.
Is the oven included in an end of tenancy clean?
Yes. The oven, hob and extractor are cleaned as part of every end of tenancy clean, so there is no need to book them separately. Carpet and upholstery cleaning are the main optional extras.
Which areas do you cover?
Tenant Clean covers Newcastle upon Tyne, including Jesmond, Gosforth, Heaton, the city centre and Quayside, along with Gateshead and North Tyneside. If you are unsure about your address, add it to the quote form and we will confirm.
How is this different from a deep clean?
An end of tenancy clean is designed for an empty property at the end of a let and follows the inventory checklist. A deep clean suits a lived-in home, for example ahead of a mid-tenancy inspection.
How do I get a quote?
Fill in the quote form on this page with the property size, address and your preferred date. Quotes are free with no obligation, and the details are confirmed before anything is booked.
