One quote for the whole house
A standard three-bedroom house is £269 for the end of tenancy clean, or £324 with oven interior cleaning. Shared equally by three housemates, the end of tenancy clean is £89.67 each. Those figures cover the whole property, including shared rooms; other extras and non-standard properties need confirmation.

How it works for a shared house
One clean, split between the house.
You book one clean for the whole property at one fixed price, then split it however you like between housemates. Most houses just divide it by the number of tenants. We clean every bedroom, every bathroom, the kitchen and all the shared space to checkout standard.
In a student let the shared kitchen and the ovens take the most work, so that is where we start. It is where the checkout is won or lost.
- One fixed price for the whole house, split it any way you like
- 3-bed house £269: about £90 each between three housemates
- 4-bed house £309: about £77 each between four
- 5+ bedrooms from £359: about £72 each between five
- Every bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and shared space cleaned
- Free return for agreed cleaning issues reported within 48 hours
When half the house has already left
Keys, parents, and housemates who've gone home.
By checkout week, half the house has usually gone home already. That's fine. One housemate books, we sort access with whoever still holds a key, or directly with the letting agent, and the whole house gets the same timestamped photo record of the finished clean.
Parents can book and pay on the house's behalf. We confirm the fixed price in writing before the clean and send the itemised receipt after, so the paperwork is clean for whoever paid, and ready for the deposit scheme if the agent tries a deduction.
- One housemate or a parent books for the whole house
- Key collection from a housemate, a neighbour or the agent
- Photo record shared with the house, receipt to whoever paid
The student checkout
What agents check in a student let.
Student houses get a detailed checkout, especially where the landlord supplied a photo-heavy inventory. After a year of a full house, the grime builds up in the places a quick tidy misses.
The usual focus points are the ovens, the shared bathrooms, bedroom skirting boards and window tracks, and any garden or yard on the inventory. We clean to the inventory, the same document your agent marks against.
Timing and cost
Book ahead for the summer rush.
Manchester student moves run from late June right through September, and Fallowfield (M14) and Withington (M20) slots go first. Book as soon as your checkout date is set. Pricing starts at £155 for a studio and rises up the ladder by number of bedrooms.
A thorough vacuum is included. If the carpets are stained after a long tenancy, add carpet shampooing to the quote.

Really thorough deep clean. The team worked hard throughout and left the property finished to a very high standard. I would happily book again.
We booked an end of tenancy clean and were very pleased with the result. Communication was quick and helpful throughout, and extra effort was made to get everything completed before the tenancy ended.

FAQ
Student cleaning questions
What student houses ask before they book.
Can we split the cost between housemates?
Yes. You book one clean for the whole house at one fixed price, then split it however you like. Most houses divide it by the number of tenants.
How much is it for a student house?
It depends on the number of bedrooms. A 3-bed house is £269 (about £90 each between three housemates), a 4-bed is £309 (about £77 each), and 5+ bedrooms start at £359 (about £72 each between five). Tell us the property and we will give you a fixed quote.
Half our house has already moved home. Can we still book?
Yes, this is normal for student checkouts. One housemate or a parent books, we arrange key collection with whoever still has access or with the letting agent, and everyone gets the same photo record of the finished clean.
Can a parent book and pay?
Yes. Parents book student cleans all the time. We confirm the fixed price in writing before the job and send the itemised receipt to whoever paid.
Do you clean HMOs and shared houses?
Yes, it is a big part of what we do in Manchester. Shared kitchens and bathrooms in an HMO take the most work, and that is where a student checkout is won or lost.
Do carpets cost extra?
A thorough vacuum is included. Carpet shampooing is an optional add-on when deeper cleaning is needed to restore the check-in standard. A tenancy clause cannot require you to hire a professional cleaner; reasonable deductions for returning dirty carpets are a separate matter.
When should we book?
As early as you can. Manchester student moves cluster at the end of June and July, and the good slots go first.
Will we get our deposit back?
We clean to the inventory standard the agent checks against, and back it with a 48-hour re-clean guarantee. The government's 2024 landlord survey found that 59% of landlords who withheld deposit money cited cleaning. Book the work before handover and keep the cleaning photos and receipt.
