Fixed prices vs what people really pay

Some companies publish fixed prices by property size. Tenancy.Cleaning, for example, lists a 1 bed, 1 bath clean at £175 and a 2 bed, 1 bath at £230. Yet its typical final bill, once extras are added, is £284. Hello Cleaners starts its end of tenancy cleans at £155 for a studio and £200 for a one or two-bed.

The gap between the advertised price and the final bill comes almost entirely from extras, and from bigger homes with more bathrooms.

How to budget for your clean

  1. Start with the price for your number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
  2. Check your inventory: if the carpets and oven were professionally cleaned when you moved in, budget for them now.
  3. Add around £30–£45 for an oven and around £20–£30 per carpeted room.
  4. Leave room for parking or congestion charges, which most companies add only where they apply.
