Move In Cleaning in Kensington: FAQs

Still unsure? Ask us anything.

Are your cleaners vetted and insured?

Yes. Every Cosy Maids cleaner is ID-checked and right-to-work checked before their first job, and all work is covered by our public liability insurance.

Do I need to be at home?

No. Many customers leave a key with a neighbour, concierge or in a lockbox, and add the details in the access notes when they book.

How soon can you come to Kensington?

Most bookings can be made for the next working day, subject to availability. Pick any open date and time slot when you book online, or call us for anything urgent.

Do you cover W8?

Yes. We cover every W8 address in and around Kensington, including the streets around Kensington High Street, Kensington Gardens and Kensington Church Street and homes near High Street Kensington, as well as Holland Park, Earl's Court and the rest of Kensington and Chelsea.

How much does move in cleaning cost in Kensington?

Prices start at £139 for studio. The price depends on the size of the property and any extras you add, and you see the exact total before you book.

Is a move in clean the same as an end of tenancy clean?

They cover similar ground, but the purpose differs. An end of tenancy clean is aimed at the standard an agent checks at check-out, while a move in clean is for you, before your belongings arrive. If you are a landlord preparing for a new tenant, end of tenancy cleaning is usually the better choice.

What should I check before the cleaners leave?

Open a few cupboards and drawers, look inside the oven and fridge, and check the shower screen and taps in good light. If you are not there when the team finishes, check after you arrive. Report anything on our checklist that was missed within 72 hours and we will return to re-clean it free.
