Why sellers book it
What a pre-sale clean in New Barnet and Cockfosters actually buys you
Photographs sell the viewing
Portal thumbnails are how a London buyer decides whether to book. Clean glass, clear worktops and lifted traffic lanes change how bright and how large a room photographs — before anyone stages a single cushion.
Presentation is priced into offers
Limescale, grease film and pet odour read as deferred maintenance, and buyers deduct for them far more heavily than the clean would ever cost. Removing them removes the excuse for a reduction.
Timed around the agent, not the diary
We book to your photography slot, first open house or valuation, including early mornings and weekends, so the property peaks on the day it matters rather than three days before.
One team, one fixed price
DBS-checked cleaners, £5m public liability, parking, permits and ULEZ inside the price, and a 48-hour promise: if we missed something, we come back free.
In buyer order
The rooms a buyer judges and the order we clean them
Front door and hallway
The first ten seconds of a viewing. Door furniture polished, glass in the door cleaned both sides, hallway floor edged by hand, coats and shoes cleared to make the space read wider than it is.
Kitchen
Worktops, splashbacks, cupboard fronts, handles, extractor and the oven interior. Grease film flattens light in photographs; removing it is what makes a kitchen look newer than it is.
Bathrooms and en-suites
Limescale off screens, taps and tiles, grout brightened, silicone treated for mould and chrome polished. Buyers price a tired bathroom into their offer.
Windows and light
Glass, frames, cills, tracks and trickle vents inside, plus external glass as an add-on. Every agent photograph is a light photograph.
Floors and traffic lanes
Correct product for the finish, edges by hand, and extraction on carpets to lift traffic lanes and the dark edging along skirtings.
Smell
Bins, drains, waste traps, soft furnishings and pet areas treated at source. Air freshener over an odour reads as a hidden problem.
