  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.

Deposit protection

What loses deposits in South Bank and Waterloo 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 Southwark 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

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. It can require the property back as clean as at check-in, evidenced against the inventory — which is why we hand you a dated photo record with the completed checklist.
