House Cleaning in Aberdeen

End-of-tenancy cleaning is the big one. If you are handing keys back on Union Street, in Ferryhill, or up in Bridge of Don, the standard is usually tighter than a normal deep clean, and it is checked against a list. That means inside cupboards, a degreased hob area, limescale removed, and floors finished properly, not just vacuumed. Our teams clean with that inspection in mind, so you have a clear, room-by-room spec to show what was done.

Moving into a place in Countesswells, Hazelwood (AB15 8LX), or Grandhome in Bridge of Don (AB22) often comes with new-build dust, sticker residue, and fine grit in window tracks. It looks small, then it spreads as soon as boxes arrive. A pre-move-in clean works best on the day you get access, before the van turns up, so cupboards, shelves and fridge space are ready for food and kitchenware. Quick win, less re-cleaning later.

Selling and moving out of an owned home is different. Viewings and surveys bring people through, then you still need it left in a tidy state for completion. In Aberdeen, where older granite properties can hold onto dust in deep skirtings and around radiators, a move-out clean helps the place present well and removes day-to-day build-up that sits in corners. We see this a lot in older streets around Bon Accord and St Nicholas, and in traditional flats where the kitchen grease lingers above the door line.

Post-renovation and builders’ cleans matter too. A new bathroom refit can leave grout haze on tiles and fine dust settled over everything, including light shades and the tops of doors. If you have had work done before selling, or you are moving into a renovated flat near the city centre, we can book a one-off clean focused on dust removal, detailed wipe-downs, and a proper floor finish so it feels liveable again.

End-of-tenancy cleans are judged on detail. In older Aberdeen flats, especially granite buildings in conservation areas like Old Aberdeen or Ferryhill, the bits that fail inspections are often small, grease on the top edge of kitchen doors, dust on skirting profiles, and scale around taps. Our end-of-tenancy spec is built around those points. It is not a “quick spruce up”, it is a room-by-room reset.

Kitchens are where time goes. We clean inside cupboards and drawers, degrease splashbacks, wipe down tiles, and pay attention to the cooker area, including the hob and the surrounding surfaces where grease spreads. We also clean behind accessible appliances where safe to do so, because crumbs and dust collect fast in tight gaps. If the property is near the coast or exposed to wind, internal window sills can get gritty, and we treat that as part of the deep dust removal.

Bathrooms are non-negotiable. Limescale on shower screens, soap residue on tile edges, and darkened grout lines are what people notice first, and what inventory checkers write down. We scrub and descale, then finish with a clean, dry polish on mirrors and chrome so it looks sharp. Floors matter too, including edges around the toilet base and behind the door swing.

Living spaces and bedrooms are about dust, marks, and floors. We wipe skirting boards, door frames, handles, and switches, and we clean interior windows so light comes through properly, which helps in granite-built properties where rooms can feel darker. Final step is floors, vacuum thoroughly, then mop hard flooring so it dries streak-free. In stairwell flats, we also recommend checking the inside of your entrance door, where scuffs build up near the latch.
