End of Tenancy Cleaning in Radford
End of Tenancy Cleaning across Radford and NG7, from the team in New Basford.
End of Tenancy Cleaning for Radford homes
Agent and landlord turnarounds against a tight void, usually within 48 hours of the keys coming back. Speed matters more in Radford than anywhere else we work, and a void day costs more than the clean does.
This is the bulk of what we do in Radford, and it is landlord and agent work run against a clock. The void between one tenancy ending and the next starting is often days rather than weeks, so the clean sits between the key return and the check-in with no slack either side of it. A good deal of the stock is let by the room, which produces a job most areas never ask for: one bedroom changing hands while five people carry on living in the house, with a share of the kitchen and bathroom charged against the departing tenant. We photograph the finished property so the incoming check-in inventory has evidence behind it rather than the word clean written on a line.
Radford sits in NG7, under Nottingham City Council. Landlord and agent work, mostly to a tight void between one tenancy ending and the next starting. Speed matters more here than anywhere else we work.
What we run into on Radford end of tenancy cleaning jobs
On a single room change the scope is small and unusual. The mattress gets a HEPA vacuum and the base gets moved, wardrobe and drawer runners get emptied and wiped, and the walls have blu tack and poster tape residue taken off with a soft eraser rather than a solvent that lifts the paint with it. The window track and the inside of the glass matter more than usual, because a single bedroom is where an inventory clerk has the time to look closely. Anything in the shared kitchen is agreed in writing first, since five other people are using it while we work.
How a Radford end of tenancy cleaning job actually runs
On a whole house handback the order of events matters as much as the clean does. Keys come back, the property gets emptied, and only then is there a job worth booking: a terrace with a sofa still in the front room cannot be finished, and we would rather say that than clean around it and have it flagged at check-in. What surprises people is how much of the inspection happens outside the back door. The yard, the entry, the bin store and the drain gully appear in the check-in inventory on nearly every terrace on these streets, and they are almost never part of what a departing tenant thinks cleaning means. Rubbish left in the yard is not cleaning at all, it is removal, and it wants pricing separately or agreeing with the landlord before the day rather than on it. The working order inside is wet first in kitchen and bathroom, dry through the bedrooms and hall, floors last, then a walk round with the camera before the door is locked.
Who books it here
Landlord turnarounds are the bulk of the work here, usually to a tight void between tenancies. We photograph the finished job so the check-in inventory has something to sit on.
We run Radford on the same round as Hyson Green, Lenton and New Basford.
What we check on every Radford job
The same items decide the outcome every time. The oven comes apart properly: racks, side runners, the inner pane where the door is built to split, and the grill pan handle. Cupboard fronts either side of the cooker and the underside of the wall units above it are degreased and rinsed. Extractor filter out, washing machine drawer and the rubber seal opened up, dishwasher filter and spray arms, fridge and freezer defrosted and left off with the doors ajar. In the bathroom the taps, screen and shower head are descaled, and where the black is inside the silicone rather than on it, that gets photographed instead of scrubbed. Outside, the bin is washed, the gully cleared and the yard swept. All of it goes on an itemised sheet carrying the property address, which is the document that survives a deposit argument.

- 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
- Throughout: All floors vacuumed and mopped
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 Radford
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.
The tenant hands keys back on Friday and the new one starts Monday. Is that enough?
Usually yes, and it is the normal Radford pattern. Book the slot as soon as you have the key return date rather than once it has happened, because a void that short has no room in it for a re-book. If anything is flagged at check-in we come back and put it right free within 72 hours, which is what the guarantee is for.
Only one room is changing hands. What am I actually paying for?
The room in full, plus whatever share of the kitchen, bathroom and hall you tell us to include. We price it as a room rather than as a house, and we itemise the shared areas on their own line so the departing tenant can see exactly what has been charged to them and what has not. That itemisation prevents most deposit arguments.
The tenant left a sofa and two bin bags in the yard. What happens?
Tell us before the day and we will price the removal on its own line, or leave it and clean round it with a note on the sheet. What we will not do is quietly absorb it, because a full clean and a house clearance are different jobs needing different vehicles. If the landlord wants it gone, the cheapest route is usually a separate collection booked for the same morning, so the yard is already empty by the time we reach it.
Does the inventory clerk really check the yard and the bins?
On these terraces, usually yes, because the outside space and the bin store are listed in the check-in report and they photograph badly. A swept yard, a washed bin and a clear gully take twenty minutes and remove an easy deduction. The other thing people forget is the meter cupboard under the stairs, which does get opened. The loft hatch normally does not, unless the check-in recorded the loft as empty.
Do you cover the whole of Radford?
Yes, all of NG7 and the surrounding streets, under Nottingham City 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 Radford?
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 Radford?
One to two weeks normally, three weeks between late June and August when tenancies across Nottingham end together. On-street, generally available outside commuting hours, and we group Radford with Hyson Green, Lenton and New Basford on the rota.
