End of Tenancy Cleaning in Carlton
End of Tenancy Cleaning across Carlton and NG4, from the team in New Basford.
End of Tenancy Cleaning for Carlton homes
The rented terraces along Carlton Hill, where agents want an itemised checklist rather than a one-line invoice. We supply one with every clean and return free within 72 hours if anything is flagged.
End of tenancy is the volume job in Carlton, because a large share of the terraces along the hill are let rather than owned. Agents on this side of Gedling work to a check out appointment with a clerk and a written report, so an itemised checklist and dated photographs matter as much as the cleaning itself. The particular local wrinkle is outside. Many of these terraces have a small yard, a shared entry to the rear, and in the older ones an outhouse or coal store still standing. All of that goes into a check in inventory as outside space, and almost no tenant cleans it, which is why it turns up as a deduction line.
Carlton sits in NG4, under Gedling Borough Council. An even split between regular domestic cleaning in the interwar semis and end of tenancy work on the rented terraces along Carlton Hill.
What we run into on Carlton end of tenancy cleaning jobs
A yard needs a stiff brush and a hose rather than a mop, and the two things clerks photograph are the drain gulley and the corner where the bins live. A gulley packed with leaves and cigarette ends reads as neglect in a report even when the house itself is spotless. Where an outhouse is still used as a store it wants clearing and sweeping, cobwebs down, and nothing more ambitious than that. Check whether the entry is on your demise or shared, because sweeping an entry you are not responsible for is time better spent indoors.
How a Carlton end of tenancy cleaning job actually runs
A tenancy clean on one of the hill terraces starts with two questions that have nothing to do with cleaning: is there power and is there hot water. A good number of these lets run on a prepayment meter, and a tenant who has already moved out has usually run the credit down to nothing, so the machines have no supply and the taps run cold. Check it the day before, not on the morning. The second is the key. Once the tenancy has ended the keys sit with the agent, and their opening time decides when we can start, which on a full house is the difference between finishing that day and coming back for a second one. Inside, the sequence is fixed. Oven degreaser goes on first, then the property is worked top down, and the kitchen comes last because that is where the water and the waste have to go. We finish room by room rather than task by task, so a room that is done stays done and nobody walks a bucket back through it, and every floor is cleaned in one pass on the way out.
Who books it here
A lot of the terraced stock is rented, so end of tenancy and landlord turnarounds sit alongside the regular domestic work.
We run Carlton on the same round as Mapperley, Sneinton and Arnold.
What we check on every Carlton job
The itemised checklist follows what a clerk actually inspects, and in this stock the same lines recur. Grease on the inside faces of the cupboard doors either side of the hob, invisible until a cloth goes over it. Carbon on the oven base, the grill pan and the door glass. The detergent drawer and the fold of the washing machine door seal, which holds standing water and black growth. Limescale on the kitchen mixer and around the bath overflow. The filter behind the cooker hood, which in a long let has frequently never been taken out. Window tracks and the drainage slots at the foot of the frames. Bathroom sealant, where the mould has gone into the silicone rather than sitting on it, is photographed and written up as a maintenance item, so the report records it as the condition of the property rather than as something a tenant failed to clean.
What the end of tenancy cleaning covers
A sample of what is included
- Kitchen: Hob, extractor hood and filter degreased
- Bathrooms: Toilet including hinges, base and behind the pan
- Kitchen: Oven interior, racks, door glass and grill pan
- Bathrooms: Shower screen seals and the tracks they sit in
That is a sample rather than the whole list. The full end of tenancy cleaning page sets out every section of the scope, what is deliberately excluded and why, how long it takes on each property size, and what tends to go wrong.
What end of tenancy cleaning costs in Carlton
End of tenancy cleaning, UK average. Nottingham sits in the lower half. Our own cost research puts the Midlands at around the UK average to 10% below it, so Nottingham sits in the lower half of every range on this page.
| Property | Typical one-off |
|---|---|
| Studio | £120 to £180 |
| 1 bedroom | £150 to £250 |
| 2 bedrooms | £200 to £300 |
| 3 bedrooms | £300 to £420 |
| 4 bedrooms | £380 to £480 |
| 5+ bedrooms | £450 to £600 |
If one quote is well under the others, it is almost always the oven, the internal windows, the carpets or the re-clean guarantee that has been left out.
Priced separately
| Extra | Typical cost |
|---|---|
| Carpet cleaning, per room | £35 to £60 |
| Stairs and landing carpet | £45 to £85 |
| Single oven deep clean | £45 to £80 |
| Exterior windows | £30 to £90 |
These are typical Nottingham market ranges, not our price list. We quote a fixed price in writing for your property before anything starts, because a number produced from a bedroom count alone has priced an average property rather than yours. The figures above come from our own UK cost research, set out in full in this guide.
Do I need to clean the yard?
If it is in your check in inventory, and in Carlton terraces it usually is. Brushed through, gulley cleared, bins moved and the ground behind them cleaned. It takes under an hour and it removes one of the easier deduction lines an agent can write. Send us the inventory and we will include it in the quote rather than pricing it on the day.
How much notice do agents here want?
Leave yourself a full day between the clean and the check out appointment, and book the clean for the day after the van leaves. One to two weeks ahead is normally enough in Carlton, since there is no single changeover season the way there is in the student areas. That gap is what lets us return free inside 72 hours if anything is flagged.
The meter is on prepayment and the credit has run out. What happens?
We cannot clean the property properly without power and hot water, so we would rather move the booking than turn up and do half a job. Top the meter up, or ask the agent to, before the day. It usually needs less than people expect, since the load is a vacuum, a machine and a hot tap for a few hours. If you find out late, ring us: a morning slot is easier to move than to waste.
The property is let furnished by the landlord. Does that change the clean?
Yes, and it adds time. Everything on the inventory is cleaned as a listed item: inside wardrobes and drawers, under the beds, the dining chairs, and behind and under the sofa cushions. Mattresses are vacuumed and spot treated rather than wet cleaned. Send us the inventory with the enquiry, because the item count is what changes the hours here, not the number of bedrooms.
Do you cover the whole of Carlton?
Yes, all of NG4 and the surrounding streets, under Gedling Borough Council. We are based in New Basford, NG7, and there is no travel charge to any part of our area.
How much does end of tenancy cleaning cost in Carlton?
The same as anywhere else on our patch, because we do not price by postcode. What moves the number for this service is property size, whether it will be empty, the oven's honest condition, and whether carpets are included. Tell us that and you get a fixed price in writing rather than a range.
How soon can you start end of tenancy cleaning in Carlton?
One to two weeks normally, three weeks between late June and August when tenancies across Nottingham end together. On-street, usually available, and we group Carlton with Mapperley, Sneinton and Arnold on the rota.
