What's Included in a Student House Clean?

Our service covers four types of clean, each designed around the specific pressures of shared student living. For floors and carpets needing specialist attention, we can combine the clean with carpet cleaning for student houses in a single visit.

General House Cleaning

  • Dusting, vacuuming, and mopping all rooms
  • Bathroom and kitchen surface cleaning
  • Bedroom cleaning including wardrobes
  • Bin cleaning and rubbish removal

End of Tenancy Cleaning

  • Deep clean of all rooms and appliances
  • Oven, fridge, and microwave inside and out
  • Limescale removal in bathrooms
  • Spotless floors and polished surfaces
  • Re-clean support if landlord or agent flags issues

Deep Clean

Ideal when the house needs a full reset after a busy term. We focus on kitchens and bathrooms, remove built-up grime and limescale, and clean hard-to-reach areas that regular cleaning misses.

Regular Term-Time Cleaning

Book weekly, fortnightly, or monthly sessions to keep your shared house tidy throughout the term. We work around your timetable and can access the property while you're at lectures.

Room-by-Room Student Cleaning Checklist

  • Microwave and dishwasher cleaned inside

What Is Deposit-Safe Cleaning?

Deposit-safe cleaning is a move-out clean specifically designed to meet the standard landlords and letting agents use when assessing whether to return your deposit in full. It goes beyond a regular tidy and targets the exact areas most commonly disputed at check-out. After the clean, many tenants also book a student property sparkle clean to bring glass, chrome fittings, and surfaces to a showroom finish before the landlord inspection.

The five areas landlords most commonly flag in deposit disputes:

  • Oven and hob — the single most disputed item; must be degreased fully inside and out
  • Bathroom limescale — on taps, tiles, shower screen, and plughole
  • Skirting boards and light switches — frequently missed in standard cleans
  • Window interiors and frames — marks and dust are flagged in most inventories
  • Floors and carpets — must be vacuumed and mopped; stains require specialist treatment

🔁 Re-clean support included

If your landlord or agent flags any area after inspection, we return and address it — at no additional charge.

When Should Students Book a Professional Clean?

Timing your clean correctly saves stress and protects your deposit. For a mid-term reset when the house needs more than a surface wipe, our student house deep clean covers every room from top to bottom.

  1. Move-in clean — book 24–48 hours before your arrival. Even new-to-you accommodation may not have been cleaned to a high standard between tenancies. Starting fresh protects you at check-out.
  2. Mid-term reset — when the kitchen or bathrooms have built up grime over a busy term. A one-off deep clean prevents the problem from worsening and reduces the workload at move-out.
  3. Before a landlord inspection — mid-tenancy inspections are common. Book 48 hours before the visit to ensure everything is clean, reducing the risk of a formal notice or deduction.
  4. End of tenancy — book 48–72 hours before your key handover date. This leaves time to complete the clean and arrange a re-clean if your landlord or agent flags anything before you return the keys.

Student HMO Cleaning UK FAQs

How much does student house cleaning cost in the UK?

A regular clean for a shared student house usually starts from £60 to £80. End of tenancy cleaning starts from £120 for a 1 bed flat. The price depends on the size of the property and the type of clean, so send your postcode and we'll give you a free fixed quote.

How does deposit-safe cleaning help students get their deposit back?

Deposit-safe cleaning goes after the areas landlords and letting agents check most closely: the oven, bathroom limescale, skirting boards, windows and floors. If anything is flagged after the inspection, we come back and fix it at no extra cost, which gives you something to show the agent.

Do you provide end of tenancy cleaning for students?

Yes. We do end of tenancy cleaning for student houses and flats, covering kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and all appliances to a deposit-safe standard. Re-clean support is included, so if your landlord flags something, we return. Shared houses can book one clean for the whole property and split the cost.

Do student cleaners bring their own products and equipment?

Yes. Our cleaners arrive with professional products and tools, so you don't need to buy anything. Eco-friendly, non-toxic options are available if you ask when booking, which helps if a housemate has asthma or allergies. They don't leave strong fumes behind in small rooms.

Which UK student cities do you cover?

We clean student houses in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Sheffield, Liverpool, Bristol, Nottingham, Glasgow and Edinburgh, along with many other university towns. Send us your postcode to confirm a team covers your street, as moving-out weeks in June fill up fast.

Can we book regular student house cleaning during term time?

Yes. You can book weekly, fortnightly or monthly visits throughout term. We work around your timetable and can clean while you're at lectures, so nobody needs to stay in. A regular slot stops the shared kitchen and bathroom getting out of hand before exams.

What is the difference between regular, deep and end of tenancy cleaning?

Regular cleaning keeps the house tidy week to week. A deep clean is a one-off reset that goes after built-up dirt and grime. End of tenancy cleaning covers every room and appliance to the standard your landlord checks at move-out, and TidySpaces backs it with re-clean support.

When should students book an end of tenancy clean?

Book the clean for 48 to 72 hours before you hand the keys back. That leaves time for the clean itself and for a re-clean if your landlord flags anything at a pre-check. June is the busiest month for student move-outs, so booking a couple of weeks ahead is sensible.

Can I book a last-minute or weekend student clean?

Yes. Weekend and last-minute slots are available. Call or WhatsApp +44 7442 633361 with your postcode and property details for a quick confirmation, and we usually reply within a few hours. The more notice you give, the better the choice of times.

Do you offer a group price for shared student houses?

Yes. If you share the house, you can book one clean for the whole property and split the cost between housemates. That's usually cheaper per person than separate room cleans. Contact us with the number of bedrooms and bathrooms and we'll send one group quote.
