The Definitive End of Tenancy Cleaning Checklist

Securing your full deposit requires meeting the strict inventory standards of landlords and letting agents across Kent. Here is exactly what needs to be done.

Pristine kitchen after an end of tenancy clean

Kitchen Deep Clean

The kitchen is heavily scrutinized during inventory checks. Superficial wiping is not enough.

  • ✓ Degrease all cabinets inside and out, including upper ledges.
  • ✓ Deep clean the oven, extractor fan, and hob (removing all burnt-on carbon).
  • ✓ Descale the sink and polish all taps.
  • ✓ Defrost and sanitize the fridge/freezer (leaving doors open).

Bathroom Sanitisation

Bathrooms must be completely free of limescale, water marks, and mould.

  • ✓ Intensive descaling of shower screens, heads, and thermostatic valves.
  • ✓ Scrub and sanitize the toilet, including behind the pedestal.
  • ✓ Polish all mirrors, tiles, and chrome fixtures.
  • ✓ Ensure plugholes are clear of debris.

Living Areas and Bedrooms

Dust settles everywhere. Agents check the places you rarely look.

  • ✓ Wipe down all skirting boards, door frames, and architraves.
  • ✓ Clean inside all windows and polish glass.
  • ✓ Remove cobwebs from ceilings and light fixtures.
  • ✓ Deep vacuum all carpets, moving furniture where possible.
