End-of-Tenancy Cleaning: Preparing the Rooms and the Priorities - Fixtures & Fittings Services - Benelux

Before handing back the keys, a property can call for a thorough cleaning and a few separate repairs. Fixtures & Fittings Services - Benelux prepares end-of-tenancy requests from the state of the rooms and the expected result.

At a glanceBefore handing back the keys, separating cleaning from material defects allows services to be compared on the same scope.

The move is over, the marks remain

The furniture is out and the zones that were hidden become visible. The kitchen, the sanitary ware and the floors do not necessarily need the same work. A few objects or boxes may still be in the way.

Separating cleaning from material defects

A dirty mark, a degraded seal and a scratched floor covering are not treated the same way. Distinguishing them avoids expecting a cleaning to correct damage. A clear request also helps prepare the priorities before the keys are handed over.

Preparing a survey of the request

Send a view of each room, then details of the kitchen, the sanitary ware and the marked zones. Say what is still in the property and what must be removed. State the planned date and the access conditions.

The scope identifies the surfaces to clean, the fittings concerned and any repairs requested. If a repair or painting is planned, the order of operations must be prepared so the cleaned zones are not dirtied again.

Comparing services on the same scope

The number of rooms is not enough: their state, the materials, the clutter and the fittings all count. An emptied property and a still-furnished one call for different preparations. Describe your request to get an estimate. If a paid visit is considered, its terms are agreed in advance.

Example: handing back an emptied flat

Imagine a flat without furniture where the kitchen is grimy and a handle needs repairing. The cleaning and the repair are defined together so everything is ready for the checkout inventory.

No: dirt, degraded seals and scratched coverings are different jobs. Separating them avoids expecting a cleaning to correct damage.
