Guide
They sound similar — but choosing the wrong one could cost you your deposit. Here's exactly what each covers.
The short answer
If you are moving out of a rental property, you need an end of tenancy clean — not a deep clean. End of tenancy cleaning is specifically designed to meet the standard letting agents and inventory clerks check against. A deep clean is for homeowners who want their property thoroughly cleaned but are not subject to a checkout inspection.
End of Tenancy Clean
For tenants moving out of a rental
From £227
Deep Clean
For homeowners wanting a thorough reset
From £182
Letting agents and inventory clerks are not checking whether your home is clean in a general sense — they are checking it against the condition recorded at move-in. A standard deep clean, however thorough, is not designed with that standard in mind. An end of tenancy clean is.
The practical difference is the re-clean guarantee. When you book an end of tenancy clean with Scrubbr, if your landlord or letting agent raises a written cleaning complaint within 48 hours of your checkout inspection, we return and re-clean the affected areas at no charge. A deep clean does not include this.
If you are moving out of a rental in Clapham, Battersea, Wandsworth, or anywhere across South West London, always book an end of tenancy clean rather than a deep clean.
