Checklist

Deep Cleaning checklist

Use this checklist to brief whoever is doing the work, or to inspect it afterwards. It is the same list our teams work from, and the last section covers the spots that get skipped most often.

Deep Cleaning checklist

Core checklist

Every item here is in scope on a standard deep cleaning visit from us.

  • Every surface, skirting and fitting hand-wiped
  • Kitchen appliances degreased inside and out
  • Bathrooms descaled and sanitised
  • Internal windows, frames and sills cleaned
  • Light fittings, vents and radiators dusted
  • Doors, handles, sockets and switches wiped

Commonly skipped areas

These are the places a rushed job leaves behind. Check them before you sign anything off.

  • Skirting boards behind furniture
  • Tops of doors and door frames
  • Extractor grilles and vent covers
  • Radiator backs and valves
  • Light switches, sockets and handles
  • Window tracks, sills and frames

What each surface needs

Matching chemistry to surface is what protects finishes. This is what we reach for and why.

  • Micro-fibre and steam on hard surfaces
  • Enzyme cleaners in kitchens
  • Descaler on chrome and glass
  • Wood-safe pH-neutral floor solution
  • HEPA extraction on soft furnishings

Who this checklist suits

Homeowners preparing for a move, sale, or event, and anyone who wants their home genuinely reset.

Yes — a signed-off checklist is provided on request, and we can send photographs for empty properties.

Is anything on this list charged as an extra?

No. Everything under the core checklist is included in the quoted price for this service.
