The “New Home” Sanitization Standard – A Fresh Start for Buyers
A Post-Sale New Home Clean is a comprehensive sanitization service performed in the window between “Completion” and “Move-In Day” to ensure a property is hygienically safe for new owners. This specialist deep clean for buyers focuses on sanitizing surfaces, inside all cupboards, and removing the previous occupant’s trace.
🧼 The Difference Between “Tidy” and “Hygienic”
Moving is stressful, but unpacking into a sterile kitchen is the ultimate luxury. Our move-in clean goes far beyond a standard tidy. We use hospital-grade disinfectants on high-touch points, inside cabinets, and all sanitary ware. We don’t just clean — we provide a “sanitized baseline” for your new home.
🔬 Hospital-Grade Disinfectants – EN 14476 Certified
We use EN 14476 certified disinfectants, approved for use in UK homes under REACH regulations. Our professional-grade chemicals are safe for children and pets when used as directed, and are effective against a broad spectrum of bacteria and viruses.
📸 Hidden Issue Report – Photo Documentation
We offer to photograph hidden issues that may have been concealed by the previous owner’s furniture — including mold behind wardrobes, leaks, or pest signs. Our “New Home Report” provides documented evidence of any issues found, giving you peace of mind before you move in.
⏰ When to Book Your Post-Sale Clean
We recommend booking for the day after “Key Exchange” to ensure the previous owners have fully vacated. This allows our team full access to the property without interruption. We can coordinate with your solicitor to time the clean with your completion date.
