Working in Cardiff: what we plan for
Cardiff University and Cardiff Metropolitan drive a heavy student rental cycle, with tenancy handovers concentrated in late July through August. Local property mix: Bay-windowed Victorian terraces dominate Cathays and Roath, with newer flats around Cardiff Bay and the city centre.
Wales operates the Rent Smart Wales licensing scheme; standard 'occupation contracts' under the Renting Homes Act 2016.
Working with terrace layouts
Victorian terraces share a particular set of challenges: hallway access, tight stair turns to the first floor, sash windows that don't always open fully, and shared front-path access with the neighbours. Our crews know how to wrap, tilt and turn furniture through tight turns without scuffing walls — and we carry door-jamb protectors and floor runners as standard, not extras. On bay-window properties we also know when a piece won't go up the stairs and needs to come in through the bay.
Deposit protection 101 in this market
In rental-heavy postcodes, deposits run through DPS, MyDeposits or TDS, and disputes hinge on the inventory check-in against the check-out. The cleanest properties at check-out are the ones where the cleaner has the original check-in inventory and works to it. Send us the inventory along with the quote — we'll print and follow it.
What's included
Even properties marketed as 'professionally cleaned' often need a real reset before you bring furniture in. A pre move in clean covers everything you'd struggle to reach once boxes are stacked — inside cupboards, behind radiators, the loft hatch, under the kitchen sink.
- Whole-property clean while empty
- Inside cupboards, wardrobes and appliances
- Bathroom sanitisation and limescale removal
- Floors, doors, radiators and skirting
