A move clean that’s built for handover day

Central Way in Craigavon has everything from big concrete-framed buildings like Marlborough House (BT64 1AD) to modern family homes, and the cleaning standard you need varies by property. Our vetted cleaning teams handle one-off move cleans that line up with your moving timetable, from key-collection to final inventory checks. You pick the property size and the date, we book the right size of clean, then our cleaners work through a checklist that targets the places that get flagged at handover.

A lot of Craigavon moves sit in the orbit of Rushmere Shopping Centre, Craigavon Area Hospital, and the Lurgan and Portadown side of the wider urban area, so we see a mix of 3-bed semis and larger detached homes. On current listings, the most common homes for sale in Craigavon include 4-bedroom detached houses and 3-bedroom semi-detached houses, and a 4-bedroom detached has an average asking price of £449,463 according to home.co.uk. That property mix matters, because the time spent on kitchens, bathrooms, stairs, and hard floors changes fast once you move past a flat.

When you need a move clean in Craigavon

Key handover weeks feel tight in Craigavon, especially if you are juggling removals and cleaning on the same day. End-of-tenancy cleaning is the common one. It is the clean that aims to match an inventory-style checklist, with closer attention to inside cupboards, behind appliances, and marks on paintwork around light switches. If your tenancy is in the BT64 area near Central Way, or closer to the hospital, the layout tends to put bathrooms and kitchen traffic under pressure, so those rooms take the bulk of the time.

Moving-in cleaning is simpler to schedule, and it works best before your furniture arrives. Empty rooms make it possible to get to skirting boards, the backs of doors, and the edges of flooring properly. If you are collecting keys and heading back towards Lurgan or Portadown the same day, we can book the clean for the morning slot so the property is ready for the first van load. It is also a good option after a long vacancy, where dust settles in window tracks and on radiators.

Selling a home and moving out of a place you own is a different kind of pressure. Viewings might be finished, but you still want the house to look and smell neutral for the buyer’s first walk-through. Detached homes, which are a big part of Craigavon listings, often add extra bathrooms and more floor area, and that changes the scope, according to home.co.uk’s picture of what is most common for sale locally. We book by property size so the team and timings fit the job.

Builders’ cleans come up around renovation work, even small jobs like a refit kitchen. Fine dust gets into cupboards, floor edges, and the tops of door frames. If work has been done in or near older and listed sites in the wider area, like Fairview House in Tannaghmore Gardens, you often see more delicate finishes that need careful product choice and slower wiping, not heavy scrubbing.

  • End-of-tenancy cleans for key return and inventory checks
  • Move-in deep cleans before furniture arrives
  • Pre-sale move-out cleans to leave a buyer-ready finish
  • Post-renovation cleans to remove dust and residue

What’s included in a Craigavon move clean

Kitchens get the closest attention because handovers live or die on grease, crumbs, and smell. Our cleaners work through cupboard fronts and handles, then clean inside cupboards and drawers where safe to do so, including the gritty corners that collect dust. Hobs and splashbacks are degreased, extractor filters are wiped down where accessible, and the sink area is descaled. Oven cleaning can be included when booked for the right clean type, and if it is not, you can add an oven deep clean from £45.

Bathrooms are treated as a limescale job, not just a surface wipe. Expect descaling to taps, shower screens, and tiles, plus attention to grout lines and sealant where soap scum builds up. Floors are vacuumed and mopped, with care taken around thresholds and skirting edges that show dust when the room is empty. Interior windows are cleaned, then frames and sills are wiped so you do not get that chalky residue on moving day.

The timing tip that helps most Craigavon movers

Book the clean for the day before you hand back the keys, not the same day. It gives you time to spot anything you want re-touched, and it means an agent-style inspection can happen without you trying to coordinate cleaners and removals at once.

End-of-tenancy cleaning standards (the checklist agents expect)

A proper end-of-tenancy clean is not a normal weekly tidy. It is a spec clean, built around surfaces being empty and visible. In Craigavon, we often see family houses where the kitchen has taken years of use, and that is where the difference shows, inside cupboards, around kickboards, and behind freestanding appliances. Our end-of-tenancy option focuses on the finish in those high-scrutiny spots.

Start with the kitchen. That means degreasing hard surfaces, cleaning inside cupboards and drawers, wiping tiles and splashbacks, and leaving the sink and taps descaled. The oven needs to be clean to a non-greasy finish, and that usually takes a specialist pass. If you are in a larger detached home, which is a common listing type locally per home.co.uk, allow more time for multiple bathrooms and more floor area.

Bathrooms are treated as scale removal plus detailing. Our cleaners work on showers, screens, taps, and tiled areas, then move on to toilet bases, pedestal edges, and the hidden rims that get missed in quick cleans. Floors come last, vacuum first, then mop, including edges and under reachable furniture. Interior windows are cleaned too, because marks show in empty rooms.

The final pass is the one that makes the home look “reset”. Skirting boards, door frames, and light switches are wiped, and horizontal surfaces are dusted so there is no gritty feel. If there is debris left from minor work, like a refit or patch plastering, we treat it like a post-renovation job and focus on dust capture, not just moving it around.

Add-ons that are worth booking for Craigavon handovers

Carpet cleaning is the add-on that most often saves a dispute later, since marks and odours show once rooms are empty. We can add professional carpet cleaning from £25 per room, which is useful for stairs and landings where traffic is heavy. If the property has been rented for a while, it is common for carpets to look fine with furniture in place, then show wear when it is cleared.

Ovens can be the other sticking point. If your clean type does not include a full oven deep clean, you can add it from £45 so it is dealt with properly, racks and glass included where safe. Exterior windows can also be added from £45, which helps on properties with large glazed areas. For homes near busy roads and car parks around Central Craigavon, the outside glass can pick up film that dulls the light.

Add-ons that are worth booking for Craigavon handovers

What we focus on in Craigavon homes

Craigavon’s building mix is unusual, from bold 1970s concrete structures like Marlborough House on Central Way to more typical brick-and-timber housing. That mix affects cleaning in small ways. Concrete stairwells and communal areas show scuffs, while brick fireplaces and hearth edges collect soot and dust in corners. We bring the right products and pads for the surfaces in front of us, then work to the spec you booked, deep clean or end-of-tenancy.

Bigger detached homes, which are widely represented in Craigavon listings according to home.co.uk, tend to increase the time spent on bathrooms and floor space. You might have more than one shower screen to descale, and more doors, frames, and skirting lines to wipe. Those are slow metres, not fast ones. It is why we ask for the right property size at quote stage.

Post-renovation dust is its own problem, and it turns up across the wider area, not just in new builds. Fine dust clings to window sills, inside cupboards, and along the tops of radiators. We use a top-to-bottom approach, dry dust capture first, then damp wipes, then floors last. The point is to stop dust resettling as you move around the property.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does an end-of-tenancy clean take in Craigavon?

Time depends on property size and condition. A 1-bed flat usually takes 3-4 hours, and a 3-bed house often takes 5-7 hours. Larger detached homes, which are common in Craigavon listings on home.co.uk, can take longer because of extra bathrooms and floor area.

Do your cleaners bring products and equipment?

Yes. Our cleaners arrive with professional products and equipment suited to the booking, including degreasers and descalers for kitchen and bathroom work. If you have delicate finishes you are concerned about, tell us at booking so the team can plan the right approach.

What’s the difference between a deep clean and an end-of-tenancy clean?

A deep clean is detail-heavy, but an end-of-tenancy clean is checklist-led and tighter on the finish. End-of-tenancy includes the areas that get inspected closely, such as inside cupboards and behind reachable appliances. The price tier is higher because it takes longer and the spec is stricter.

Is oven cleaning included?

It depends on the clean type you book and the scope agreed at quote stage. If a full oven deep clean is not included, you can add it from £45. That add-on targets baked-on grease and the inner glass, where safe to access.

What is not included in a move clean?

We do not handle hazardous waste, heavy hoarding clearance, or tasks that need specialist trades, like mould remediation from structural damp. We also cannot guarantee access behind fully integrated appliances unless they can be moved safely. If you are unsure, describe the setup during your quote so we can advise.

What if my letting agent says the clean isn’t to the right standard?

Tell us quickly and share the specific points raised, ideally with photos. Because end-of-tenancy cleaning is checklist-led, we can compare what was covered and discuss the best next step. Deposit outcomes sit between tenant and landlord, but we will help you respond with clear information on the work completed.

Are your Craigavon cleaning teams insured?

Yes. All Homemove cleaning teams are insured. That matters on move day, when properties are empty and access is busy.

Can I book carpet cleaning at the same time?

Yes. You can add professional carpet cleaning from £25 per room. It is a common add-on for stairs, landings, and living rooms, where marks show once furniture is out.
