Crew sized to the job

Overview
Pre-move-in cleaning in Ealing W5, explained
This page prices pre-move-in cleaning for Ealing W5 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 41% privately rented and 18,588 households in total. Work starts at £95, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Ealing permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How pre-move-in cleaning works in Ealing
Five steps, the same on every W5 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Ealing gives us new-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard, which is what a 63% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Ealing actually produces is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Confirm the completion window
We work to your solicitor's likely key-release time, not a fixed morning or afternoon slot, so the clean lands before the van does.
Step 2
Empty-property clean
Every room cleaned from the top down while there is nothing to work around — the fastest and most thorough order to do it in.
Step 3
Kitchen and bathroom detail
Cupboards, appliances, tiling and sanitaryware get the time a standard weekly clean never allows.
Step 4
Final checklist
Skirting, switches, sills and floors checked room by room against a written list before we sign off.
Step 5
Handover
Photos of the finished property sent the same day, so you have a record of the condition you moved into.
Why choose us
Why Ealing customers book us
What follows is specific to Ealing: its walls, its access and the paperwork Ealing agents ask for.
Booked around your day
Completion dates move, so we hold flexible same-week slots and can usually confirm the exact time once contracts are exchanged. Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District) is the nearest station, so a W5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Ealing walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — and with 41% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in W5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in W5, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks.
Insured and documented
Cleaners carry £5m public liability and work to COSHH sheets for every product, which is what most managing agents ask for before a first inspection.
Fixed prices
Pre-move-in cleaning prices in Ealing
Fixed prices for W5 and the rest of Ealing. Bedroom count and whether the property is empty set the price. Furniture still in place, or a heavy inherited kitchen, adds time a truly empty property does not need.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bedroom flat | £95 | 2–3 hrs | Kitchen, bathroom and every cupboard cleaned inside before a single box comes in, including the previous tenant's dust and grease. |
| Two-bedroom flat or maisonette | £140 | 3–4 hrs | Two bathrooms or an en suite add time, and empty rooms mean skirting and window sills get a proper first-fit clean. |
| Three-bedroom house | £195 | 4–6 hrs | More floor area and usually a garage or utility room that a standard clean would skip. |
| Four-bedroom house or larger | £260 | 6–8 hrs | Two cleaners working room by room so the property is ready before the removal van is booked to arrive. |
| Oven, hob and extractor add-on | £65 | 1–2 hrs | New-build show ovens and inherited appliances both need a dip-tank clean before first use, not a wipe-over. |
| Carpet clean add-on, per room | £35 | 30–45 min | Hot-water extraction on the carpets left behind by a previous occupant, before furniture goes down on them. |
| Internal window and sill clean, whole property | £45 | 1 hr | Sills and internal glass throughout, so the light coming into an empty room isn't through someone else's fingerprints. |

Scope
What's included in Ealing
The same scope across W5, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- Kitchen cupboards, drawers and worktops cleaned inside and out, noted on the Ealing job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Ealing bookings: bathroom, sanitaryware and tiling limescale-treated and disinfected, allowing for the 41% of W5 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- On W5 jobs: skirting boards, door frames, switches and internal glass throughout, agreed on the doorstep in Ealing before anything is unpacked
- In Ealing: floors vacuumed and mopped, ready for furniture the same day, timed against the walk in from Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District)
- A move-in checklist so nothing is missed before keys are handed over — including pre-move-in cleaning prices
Not included
- Removal of rubbish or furniture left behind by a previous occupant — quoted separately as a clearance, outside the fixed price on Ealing bookings
- External window cleaning or exterior brickwork and render, quoted separately if you need it arranged in W5
- Carpet and upholstery cleaning unless added to the booking, handled by London Borough of Ealing or a specialist contractor instead
- Repairs, redecoration or making good beyond a clean, and we will say so before the W5 visit rather than on the day

Ana and her team cleaned performed a deep clean of our 3 bedroom home in London after we’d sold it, prior to the new buyers moving in.

Diana and Alex carried out a deep clean for my property prior to new tenants arriving. The actually cleaning was superb and I would highly recommend them.

Ealing W5 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Ealing — the numbers that actually change a pre-move-in cleaning quote.
Census 2021 puts Ealing at 18,588 households with a median age of 37.2. The mainly Victorian stock is renter-heavy, which is why 37% houses and 63% flats need different handling in W5.
Private renting sits at 41% and owner-occupation at 45%; the first group books pre-move-in cleaning at short notice, the second plans it.
Ealing substrates run to with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — and with 41% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in W5, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks is the mistake that costs a W5 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Ealing knows the pattern near Ealing Studios and Walpole Park: the Queen of the Suburbs — Walpole Park, the studios and a busy Broadway. We plan the W5 visit around it. Ealing is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Broadway loading windows, permit bays on the villa streets and booked lifts in new blocks. Nearest station is Ealing Broadway (Elizabeth line, Central, District), and one cleaner for a flat; two for a house, so the property is finished in one visit rather than split across a day.

Common questions
Pre-move-in cleaning in Ealing W5 — your questions.
How much does pre-move-in cleaning cost in Ealing W5?
Studio or one-bedroom flat starts at £95 in Ealing on W5 jobs, with 45% owner-occupation locally, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Bedroom count and whether the property is empty set the price on the Ealing rounds. Furniture still in place, or a heavy inherited kitchen, adds time a truly empty property does not need across W5, with this being London Borough of Ealing territory.
Can you clean a property in Ealing on the day of completion?
Yes — completion times move, so for W5 bookings near Ealing Studios and Walpole Park we hold a flexible same-week slot and confirm the exact time once contracts exchange, rather than a fixed calendar appointment on the Ealing rounds, with 45% owner-occupation locally — and this being London Borough of Ealing territory.
Do you clean new-build flats as well as older houses in Ealing?
Both. 63% of Ealing homes are flats and the rest mostly houses; a new-build show kitchen still needs its cupboards and oven cleaned before first use on Ealing bookings — and 41% of W5 homes being privately rented, with Ealing parking rules in play, and an older Ealing house gets the same room-by-room detail.
Will London Borough of Ealing or my managing agent expect proof the property was cleaned before I moved in?
Some Ealing managing agents ask new leaseholders for a condition record on Ealing bookings. We send photographs of the finished Ealing W5 property the same day on the Ealing rounds, with Ealing Studios and Walpole Park a few streets away, which stands as that record.
Are your fitters insured for work in W5?
Cleaners carry £5m public liability and work to COSHH sheets for every product on W5 jobs, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, which is what most managing agents ask for before a first inspection. That paperwork is what most Ealing letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on the Ealing rounds, with this being London Borough of Ealing territory.
What is not included in pre-move-in cleaning in Ealing?
Removal of rubbish or furniture left behind by a previous occupant — quoted separately as a clearance; External window cleaning or exterior brickwork and render; Carpet and upholstery cleaning unless added to the booking; Repairs, redecoration or making good beyond a clean in this 63% flats neighbourhood — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, with this being London Borough of Ealing territory. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Ealing W5 price you agree is the price you pay on Ealing bookings, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
Who books pre-move-in cleaning in Ealing W5 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 41% of Ealing privately rented and 45% owner-occupied, roughly half the W5 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on Ealing bookings — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, with 32% one-person households here.
