Working in Canterbury: what we plan for
Two universities create a tight student handover window every July. Local property mix: Listed timber-framed stock in the medieval core, Victorian terraces through Wincheap, and student HMOs near the universities.
Sensitive cleaning on period stock
Period properties need a slightly gentler touch — original sash windows, lime-plaster walls, lath-and-plaster ceilings and softwood floorboards don't behave like modern equivalents. We use lower-pressure techniques in old kitchens and bathrooms, and we know which finishes (e.g. shellac on a Georgian banister) shouldn't see modern solvents. On handyman jobs we use timber-fixings on lath-and-plaster ceilings rather than plasterboard plugs.
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
A pre-sale clean focuses on the visual cues estate agents and buyers respond to — streak-free glass, polished floors, a fresh kitchen and bathroom and an even shine across every surface. It pairs perfectly with the photography brief on the day of listing.
- Streak-free windows and mirrors
- Detailed kitchen and bathroom clean
- Floor care and surface polishing
- Light tidying and de-cluttering on request
