Carpet cleaning in London: Homeowners vs renters

Homeowners

• As a homeowner, carpet maintenance is on you, whether for daily upkeep, allergy relief or getting ready to sell. It’s also worth booking a deep clean after renovation works to remove dust and residue.
• Keep any receipts and cleaning reports if you’re using the service as part of a property sale or new build snag list.

Renters For renters in London, professional end-of-tenancy carpet cleaning is often required to meet landlord or letting agent standards.

• Carpets looking worse for wear? If it’s due to general use, your landlord might cover it. For end of tenancy cleaning in London, you may need to book a professional carpet cleaner yourself to secure your deposit.
• Make sure to get a digital receipt and share it with your landlord or letting agent as proof.
