Yes, if you want your full deposit back without arguing with an inventory clerk or estate agent for a week. Here’s the logic.
Upside: Full deposit back + zero back‑and‑forth with agents.
Downside: Pay once for a pro clean; done in one day.
Risk if you skip: Agents compare checkout to the move‑in inventory. Miss grease, limescale, inside cupboards, oven, skirtings, or carpets → deductions. Cleaning is one of the most common line items.
Translation: Pay a fixed, known cost now to avoid an unknown (and usually higher) deduction later.
Kitchen: oven, hob, extractor, splashbacks, inside cupboards, worktops, sink.
Bathrooms: limescale off taps, glass & tiles, grout attention, toilets sanitised.
Rooms: skirting, sockets/switches, door handles, wardrobes, internal windows & mirrors, dust high/low, vacuum & mop throughout.
Extras if needed: carpet steam cleaning, blinds, inside fridge/freezer.
Output: looks like the check‑in report—because that’s the target.

Letting agents here run tight inventories. If it isn’t as clean as day one, they flag it. You can DIY for two days and still miss the “hidden” stuff (extractor hood, top of cupboards, shower screen haze). A pro team knocks it out fast, to spec, with the right chemicals and tools.
Tenants who want minimal friction getting the full deposit back.
Landlords/agents needing a reset between tenancies—fewer complaints, faster lets.
Busy people who value time > scrubbing ovens.

You kept the place spotless and have the time + kit for a top‑to‑bottom deep clean that matches an inventory standard. (Most people underestimate this.)
“Can they force a ‘professional clean’?” They can’t force who cleans, but the property must be as clean as it was at move‑in. If it’s not, they’ll deduct to fix it.
“How long does it take?” Typically, a few hours to a day, depending on size and extras like carpets/oven.
“Do you guarantee it passes?” We back our work and put things right fast if an agent flags something reasonable.
“Do I need carpets/oven?” If they were clean on check‑in, yes, match that standard.
Local specialist team, inventory‑friendly checklist, and fast turnaround.
We bring everything. You hand over keys; we hand back “checkout‑ready.”
