Holiday Lets Cleaning 

 

Specialized, time-sensitive service performed between guest stays to “reset” a property to a hotel-standard finish. Unlike a standard domestic clean, it focuses on high-level sanitisation, staging, and property maintenance checks.

 

Core Components of a Changeover Clean

 

The Reset:

 Removing all traces of previous guests, including emptying all bins, clearing the fridge/freezer, and removing leftover toiletries.

 

Linen & Laundry:

Stripping all beds and towels to be replaced with fresh ironed sets.

 

Deep Sanitisation:

Intensive cleaning of high-touch areas like light switches, remote controls, door handles, and kitchen appliances including inside the microwave, oven and toaster trays

 

Staging & Presentation:

Arranging cushions, towels, and decor to match marketing photos to ensure a strong first impression.

 

Restocking:

 Replenishing “essentials” such as toilet rolls, dish tabs, tea/coffee, and guest welcome hampers.

 

Essential Maintenance & Safety Checks

Because guests expect everything to be functional, a holiday let clean includes tasks a regular cleaner might skip

 

Appliance Check:

Verifying the WiFi, TV, oven, and light bulbs are all working.

 

Safety Testing:

 Checking that smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors are operational at every changeover.

 

Damage Reports:

 Inspecting for breakages or stains immediately so they can be repaired or charged to the previous guest’s deposit
