Local Expertise in Marylebone
Based in central London, we work with tenants, landlords and managing agents across Marylebone on a daily basis. We know many of the local buildings, from mansion blocks and period conversions to modern new-build apartments. That local knowledge helps us to plan access, parking and timing realistically, so your clean runs smoothly from start to finish.
Our teams are professional, punctual and used to working in busy areas with limited parking and concierge requirements. We liaise with building staff where needed and respect house rules, lift bookings and quiet hours.
Who Our End of Tenancy Cleaning Is For
Renters and tenants
If you are moving out, a thorough end of tenancy clean helps you protect your deposit and avoid disputes over cleanliness. We work to detailed checklists that reflect typical tenancy agreements, so nothing important is missed.
Homeowners
When selling or moving between homes, a professional clean gives buyers confidence and saves you time. We can clean either as you move out or once the property is empty.
Landlords and letting agents
We support landlords and agents who need a reliable cleaning partner between tenancies. Consistent standards, clear pricing and detailed invoices make it easy to keep your portfolio in good order.
Businesses and offices
For small offices, studios and commercial lets, we offer end of lease cleaning tailored to your space and contract requirements. This includes kitchens, WCs and staff areas.
Students and shared houses
Student move-outs can be hectic. We regularly clean HMOs, student flats and shared houses, working to landlord or agent checklists and coordinating with multiple tenants where necessary.

Our Step-by-Step End of Tenancy Cleaning Process
1. Enquiry & quote
Contact us by phone, email or online form with basic details: property size, number of bathrooms, condition and your move-out date. We provide a clear, itemised quote, usually the same day. Where possible, we ask for photographs or a brief video to understand the current condition.
2. Survey – virtual or onsite
For most properties, a virtual survey via photos or video call is sufficient. For larger or more complex homes, we may arrange an onsite visit. This allows us to confirm what is required, discuss access and parking, and agree any optional extras such as carpet or upholstery cleaning. The survey ensures we allocate the right team size and time for the job.
3. Preparation
Before the clean, we ask that the property is as empty as possible and that fridge/freezers are defrosted if they are to be cleaned internally. On the day, our trained team arrives with all equipment, carries out a brief walk-through and confirms the agreed scope. We then protect flooring where necessary, work systematically through each room, and finish with a joint inspection if you are available.
Transparent Pricing
We price end of tenancy cleaning by property size, number of bathrooms and overall condition. Heavily soiled or neglected properties may require additional time, which we will always discuss and agree before starting.
Our quotes are transparent and include:
- Labour and cleaning materials
- Use of professional equipment
- Standard travel within Marylebone and nearby areas
- Optional extras clearly listed and priced
There are no hidden charges for things like congestion zone or parking; any such costs are explained in advance if they apply. For landlords and agents with multiple properties, we can agree fixed rates or frameworks.
Why Choose Professional End of Tenancy Cleaning Over DIY
Doing the clean yourself can seem cheaper, but in practice it often takes far longer than expected and may still fall short of the standard required by landlords and inventory clerks. Our teams use professional-grade equipment, proven cleaning solutions and structured checklists to ensure consistent results.
We know exactly what inspectors look for: limescale behind taps, grease on extractor fans, inside oven doors, and dust on high skirting and ledges. A professional clean reduces the risk of deductions from your deposit and saves you time when you are already busy with moving.
Insurance, Training and Professional Standards
Marylebone Carpet Cleaners operates with full commercial cover for your peace of mind:
- Public liability cover for accidental damage or injury while we are working in your property
- Goods in transit insurance for any equipment and materials we bring to and from your site
Our teams are trained in safe product use, correct dilution rates, manual handling and working in occupied buildings. We follow clear health and safety procedures and treat every property with care and respect.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to protect both your property and the environment. Where possible we use low-VOC, eco-friendly products while still achieving a thorough clean. Surfaces such as natural stone, wood and delicate finishes are assessed before cleaning, and the correct products and methods are chosen to avoid damage.
We minimise waste by using refillable containers and reusable microfibre cloths, and we separate recyclables where practical. Our approach is to clean effectively while being mindful of water use, chemical use and noise – especially important in shared buildings and apartments.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does end of tenancy cleaning in Marylebone cost?
Pricing depends mainly on the size of the property, number of bathrooms and its overall condition. A small studio will naturally cost less than a large multi-bedroom flat or house. We provide fixed quotations rather than hourly estimates, so you know the total cost upfront. Optional extras such as carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning are listed separately. To give an accurate figure, we usually ask for a brief description and some photos, and we are happy to tailor the scope to your budget where possible.
Can you provide same-day or urgent end of tenancy cleans?
We understand that move-out dates can change at short notice, and agents sometimes need a property turned around quickly. Where our schedule allows, we can offer same-day or next-day appointments in Marylebone, particularly outside peak weekends. Urgent work is prioritised on a first-come, first-served basis, and there may be a small surcharge for evening or Sunday cleans. If you have an urgent requirement, the best option is to call us so we can check live availability and discuss realistic timings.
Are you insured while working in my property?
Yes. We operate as a fully insured cleaning company. Our public liability policy covers accidental damage or injury while we are on site, and our goods in transit cover protects our equipment and materials during travel. Staff are trained in safe working practices to minimise risk, and any incidents are handled promptly and transparently. If your landlord or managing agent requires copies of our insurance documents before the clean, we can email them directly on request.
What is included in an end of tenancy clean?
Our standard service covers a full deep clean of all rooms, including kitchen and bathrooms, internal windows, surfaces, skirting boards and floors. In the kitchen we clean inside cupboards and drawers, degrease hobs and clean ovens and fridges if they are empty and defrosted. Bathrooms are descaled and sanitised, and all general dusting and vacuuming is included. Specialist services such as carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning or external windows are available as optional add-ons and can be included in your quote if required.
How far in advance should I book?
Where possible, we recommend booking your end of tenancy clean 1–2 weeks before your move-out date, especially if you need a specific day or time slot. This gives us time to complete a survey, agree the scope and coordinate with any other work, such as removals or inventory inspections. However, we appreciate that dates can change, so we always keep some flexibility in our schedule. If your plans move, we will do our best to rearrange your booking to a new suitable time.
