Service overview

End of tenancy carpets with Dons Cleaning Services

What it is

End of tenancy carpet cleaning is a deep clean and sanitise of every carpeted room in a rental property when a tenancy ends.

Who it’s for

It is for tenants moving out, landlords preparing for new tenants, and letting agents managing turnovers.

When you need it

Book in the last days of a tenancy, after the property is empty, or between tenants before a new move-in.

Why a professional clean matters

Carpets are one of the most visible parts of a check-out. Empty rooms are quick to clean, and low-moisture cleans dry in around 30 minutes, which helps when the keys are due back.

If it’s left

What happens when it’s ignored

Dirty carpets are one of the most common things flagged at check-out. Marks, traffic lanes and pet smells make a property harder to re-let.

The risks and costs

  • Disputes over the condition of carpets
  • Delays re-letting the property
  • New tenants moving into stale-smelling rooms
  • Carpets needing replacement sooner

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Leaving it until the last day with no time to dry
  • Hiring a machine that leaves carpets soaked
  • Cleaning around furniture rather than emptying rooms first
  • Forgetting the stairs and landing

    Every room cleaned with biodegradable, child- and pet-safe solutions.

    Low-moisture or force-dried, ready for hand-back.

In detail

End of tenancy cleaning explained

Rental turnovers have tight timings. Here is what to know.

For tenants

Book once the property is empty so every part of the carpet can be cleaned.

For landlords

Clean between tenants so new occupants move into fresh, sanitised carpets.

For letting agents

Invoices are available, and Don covers properties across three counties.

Pet-friendly lets

Pet areas are deep cleaned using pet-safe solutions.

Upholstery in furnished lets

Sofas and chairs can be cleaned at the same visit from £35 per seat.

Hard floors

Kitchens and bathrooms with hard floors can be added at £8 per m².

Timing the clean

The best time is once furniture and belongings have gone, so every part of the carpet is reachable. Low-moisture cleans dry in around 30 minutes, which helps when the keys are due back the same day. Hot water extraction gives the deepest clean for heavily soiled rooms, with air movers and heater fans to speed drying.

Stairs and landings

Stairs are one of the most visible areas at check-out and often look darker than the rooms. A set of 12 to 13 steps plus up to a medium landing is a fixed £100, so the hallway matches the freshly cleaned rooms.

Larger portfolios

Landlords and agents with several properties across Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex can use the same fixed room prices on every turnover, which makes budgeting simple and keeps the standard consistent from one property to the next.

Furnished and pet-friendly lets

Furnished lets often need sofas and chairs cleaned alongside carpets, and pet-friendly lets need extra attention in the areas animals used most. Both can be handled on the same visit using child- and pet-safe solutions, so the next tenants move into a property that looks and smells fresh from the first day.

Get the most from your clean

Preparing for end of tenancy carpets, and keeping the result

Simple steps that make the visit quicker and help the finish last longer.

Before Don arrives

Clear small items
Move ornaments, toys, cables and anything fragile out of the area booked for end of tenancy carpets. It lets Don start straight away and keeps the full visit focused on cleaning.
Point out problem areas
Tell Don about spills, accidents, marks or areas you are worried about. Knowing the history of a stain helps him choose the right method and set honest expectations.
Plan access and parking
Let Don know about parking, access and any rooms he should avoid. Equipment needs a clear route in and out of the property.
Keep pets and children nearby but clear
The solutions are safe for children and pets, but keeping the work area clear while equipment is running makes the job quicker and safer for everyone.

After the clean

Let it dry fully
Low-moisture cleans dry in around 30 minutes. Hot water extraction usually dries within an hour in summer and longer in winter. Synthetic fibres dry faster than natural fibres.
Help the air move
Opening a window or keeping the heating on in colder months helps drying. Where needed, Don uses industrial air movers and heater fans so nothing is left saturated.
Vacuum regularly
Regular vacuuming removes the loose grit that wears fibres fastest, so the result of a deep clean lasts longer.
Deal with spills quickly
Blot fresh spills with a clean white cloth rather than rubbing. Rubbing spreads the mark and frays fibres. For anything that won’t lift, call Don.

How pricing works

DCS publishes its prices so you can work out the cost before you call. Homes are priced per room or per seat, commercial carpets at £5 per m², hard floors at £8 per m², and natural stone starts with a £30 diagnostic visit and test patch before a final quote. Where a price isn’t listed yet, Don will quote once he knows the size and condition. There is no hard sell: you get the price, then decide.

Paying for your clean

You pay once you’ve walked through the finished job and are happy with what you see. DCS accepts cash, bank transfer or invoice, which suits homeowners, landlords, letting agents and businesses alike. Every price on this page is for a genuine deep clean and sanitise, not a quick surface rinse that leaves dirt and residue behind.
