Exeter's rental market is dominated by the University of Exeter, whose students make up a large share of the city's renters, alongside hospital staff, Met Office and civil service employees and families. Tenancies turn over every year, and the check-out inspection is where cleaning matters.

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 property size, your move-out date and any extras, and Exeter cleaning companies can send fixed-price quotes.

Hilly streets, student houses and soft water

Student houses are concentrated around Pennsylvania, St James, Mount Pleasant and Newtown, close to the Streatham campus, and many are terraced houses on hills with steps up to the front door. Heavitree, St Thomas and St Leonard's have more terraces and family homes, while the city centre and the Quay have flats and flats.

Exeter's water is relatively soft, so limescale is usually lighter than in the South East. Damp and mould in older terraces, grease in shared kitchens and the state of carpets are the more common issues at check-out.

Summer move-outs near the university

Most student tenancies end in June, and many houses are vacated within days of each other. Cleaning companies get booked up quickly, so book as early as you can. One booking for the whole house is usually the most cost-effective option.

Outside areas are often part of student tenancies. Bins left full, rubbish in front gardens and overgrown yards are frequent deductions – plan time to clear them, or ask whether your cleaner can help.

Professionals and families

Tenants in Heavitree, St Thomas, Pinhoe and Alphington are often on longer tenancies, so there's more build-up in ovens and on carpets. A specialist oven clean and carpet extraction are common add-ons. Ask about a re-clean guarantee and book so the inspection falls within it.

The South West is mild but often damp, particularly towards Devon and Cornwall, so mould on window seals and in bathrooms is something cleaners frequently deal with. Tourism makes holiday let and short-stay changeover cleaning important in coastal and historic towns, and student cities such as Bristol, Exeter, Bath and Plymouth have busy end of tenancy seasons.
