The service, locally

End of tenancy cleaning in Custom House E16

Much of E16 is managed apartment living — concierge sign-in, booked goods lifts, integrated appliances and balconies — so access is arranged with the building before the Custom House team arrives, not at the intercom.

How an Custom House E16 check-out actually works

Four steps from first quote to the photo record your agent signs off — the same process on every E16 tenancy we clean.
  1. Tell us the property size and check-out datePick studio to 5-bed, say whether it is furnished or empty, and give us the date the keys go back. No survey and no site visit.
  2. Get a fixed price, on screenThe price is fixed against the property size and add-ons you choose. Parking, permits, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge are already inside it.
  3. Book your slot, often within 48 hoursMost London check-outs are booked within 48 hours, including weekends. Peak weeks in late June to September fill fastest.
  4. Full room-by-room clean against the agent checklistA DBS-checked team works the inventory list: oven interior, appliance seals, limescale, cupboard interiors, skirtings, sockets, window tracks, floors.
  5. Photos, checklist and a free re-clean if flaggedYou get a photo record and the completed checklist to send your agent. If the check-out report flags cleaning within 72 hours, we return and re-clean those items free.

Why Hello Services

What Custom House tenants and landlords get from us

Deposit-back re-clean guarantee

If the check-out report raises a cleaning issue within 72 hours of our visit, send us the report and we return to re-clean those items free of charge. No quibbling, no second invoice.

Agent and landlord approved checklist

We clean to the same room-by-room list independent inventory clerks work from, and you get the completed checklist plus a photo record to forward to your agent.

DBS-checked, insured cleaners

Every cleaner is identity-checked, reference-checked and DBS-screened, and we carry £5m public liability plus treatment risk cover. Certificates on request before the visit.

All equipment and products included

Teams arrive with an oven dip tank, HEPA vacuum, steam unit, acid-safe descaler and a colour-coded microfibre system. You do not need to leave anything behind for us.

Oven and appliance deep clean as standard

The oven interior, racks, door glass, hob and extractor filters are inside the price on every tenancy clean — never a bolt-on, because it is the first thing the clerk opens.

Concierge and lift booking handled in Custom House

In Custom House's managed blocks we register the team with the concierge, book the goods lift and clear loading-bay time before the visit, so the clean starts on the hour instead of at the intercom — and integrated appliances are opened, not wiped around.

Add-ons and local costs

What can change the price in Custom House E16

Add-ons are optional and priced up front. Everything in the right-hand column is already inside your quote — we publish it so there are no surprises on the day the keys go back.

Newham sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, so there is no charge to pass on.

Every Hello Services vehicle is ULEZ-compliant, so there is no ULEZ line on your invoice anywhere in London.

We register the team with the concierge and book the goods lift before the visit at no cost to you.

Deposit protection

What loses deposits in Custom House and how we stop it

Cleaning is the most disputed item at check-out in every deposit scheme's published data. These are the entries that actually appear on Newham check-out reports for this housing stock — we clean them first, then photograph them.
  • Oven interior, racks and door glass — the single most flagged item on any check-out report
  • Limescale on shower screens, taps and toilets; London's water is hard in every borough
  • Integrated appliances — the fridge, dishwasher and washer-dryer behind matching doors
  • Balcony glass, drainage channel and railings, always on the managed-block inventory
  • Underfloor-heated tile grout and the ensuite screen, where scale builds fastest

Your rights at check-out

Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, a tenancy signed on or after 1 June 2019 cannot require you to pay for professional cleaning as a condition of the tenancy. What the landlord can require is that the property is returned as clean as it was at check-in, evidenced against the inventory. Your deposit must be in a government-approved scheme, and a disputed deduction goes to that scheme's free adjudication — which weighs photographic evidence heavily. That is why we hand you a dated photo record with the completed checklist on the day. General guidance, not legal advice.

About the area

Custom House in context

Ask in E16 what marks Custom House out and Custom House station and Victoria Dock comes up first. Regeneration streets between the docks and Canning Town, transformed by the Elizabeth line. Built for dockers and Beckton gasworks labour; the 2012 Games rebuilt Stratford and the Lower Lea valley wholesale.

New-build flats, 1960s estate maisonettes and terraced housing. Newham's tenure split — 33.2% owned, 38.5% private rented, 28% social (ONS Census 2021) — puts Custom House firmly in the managed apartment blocks bracket, and the clean is priced and staffed for that.

Logistics set the slots we can offer in E16. Construction diversions, estate service roads and new blocks with booked lifts. Newham sits outside the Congestion Charge zone and inside ULEZ. Every quote already carries the parking, permit and charging position for the street, so the number you see is the number you pay on the day the keys go back.

Managing agents in Custom House's blocks inspect with the building's own handover sheet as well as the inventory: integrated appliances opened, balcony checked, and communal corridors excluded from your demise. Expect the ensuite screen and the utility cupboard to be photographed.
