The service, locally
Selling in Merton? present it properly first
Hello Services runs pre-sale cleaning across the London Borough of Merton, covering 6 named areas and every outward code from SW19, SW20, CR4, SM4. We clean properties that are about to be photographed, listed and viewed — not properties that simply need tidying.
Wimbledon's village and tennis, Mitcham's commons and the Wandle valley industry at Colliers Wood. That housing stock — edwardian villas in wimbledon, 1930s semis in raynes park and morden, and estates around mitcham. — decides where a presentation clean earns its money here, and our Merton pricing already carries championship-fortnight restrictions in sw19, hill access to wimbledon village, and driveways common further out.

Questions
Pre-sale cleaning in Merton answered
From £135 for a photo-ready presentation clean in a studio or 1-bed to £585 for a full pre-sale reset in a large house. A 2-bed is £175 to £285 and a 3-bed house £235 to £365. The price is the same in every Merton area and includes VAT, products, parking, permits and ULEZ.
The day before the shoot is ideal. Book the full pre-sale reset ahead of photography and add a short viewing-day touch-up (£85) for the morning of an open house so the property returns to photograph condition.

They followed their job order well, and true to their promise of a quick but quality deep-clean of the flat. I will definitely recommend this company, and specifically Cosmina to be their cleaner.
