Aberdeen's rental market has long been shaped by the energy industry, with workers relocating in and out, alongside students at the University of Aberdeen and Robert Gordon University and families renting across the city. Many tenants move with short notice, and they need the property cleaned to the inventory before they go.
An end of tenancy clean covers every room of the empty property: inside cupboards and appliances, kitchens degreased, bathrooms cleaned, windows inside and floors throughout.
Tell us the size and floor of the flat or house, your move-out date and any extras, and Aberdeen cleaning companies can send fixed-price quotes.
Granite tenements and condensation
Much of central Aberdeen is granite tenements and terraces – in Rosemount, the West End, Ferryhill and around Union Street – with high ceilings, tall sash windows and common stairs. Teams carrying equipment up three or four floors take longer than in a modern block, and high ledges and cornicing need attention.
Aberdeen's water is soft, so limescale is rarely a problem. Condensation is: cold granite walls and older windows mean mould on frames, sills and bathroom sealant is one of the most common check-out notes, particularly after a winter.
Newer flats around the city centre and family homes in Bridge of Don, Cults, Kingswells and Westhill are more modern, with integrated kitchens and carpeted bedrooms.
Scottish tenancies and deposit protection
Most private lets in Scotland are private residential tenancies, and deposits must be held by an approved scheme: SafeDeposits Scotland, Letting Protection Service Scotland or mydeposits Scotland. Each offers free adjudication if you and your landlord disagree about deductions.
Evidence matters. Take dated photos of every room after the clean and keep the invoice and checklist.
Relocation and short-notice cleans
Tenants relocating for work often have little notice and a fixed travel date. Companies used to relocation work can fit in short-notice cleans, hand keys back to the agent and send photos afterwards. If your employer is paying for the move, check whether cleaning is covered.
Students at the University of Aberdeen and RGU usually move out in May and June, which is a busy period for cleaners.

Scotland's cities have a lot of tenement and flatted housing, so cleaning often involves stairs, shared closes and properties without lifts, which can affect how long equipment-heavy jobs take. Water in most of Scotland is soft. Wetter weather in the west makes condensation and mould a regular issue, and Edinburgh and other tourist centres have strong demand for short-let changeover cleaning.
