Four different people book this, for four different reasons
Renters book it to protect a deposit. Sellers book it to hand over a property properly. Buyers book it so they start in a home that has actually been sanitised. And landlords book it to turn a unit over between tenants. The clean looks similar from the outside, but what matters changes — so tell us which one you are, and the emphasis follows.

An empty house is the only easy one to clean
Everything a handover clean is judged on lives where furniture normally sits: inside emptied cupboards, behind appliances, the floor under the wardrobe, skirting along every wall. Once a property is empty those become straightforward and quick; with furniture still in place they become expensive and half-done. Book the clean after the last load leaves, not before.
New-build handovers
Markham has a steady flow of new-build completions, and a first-occupancy clean is its own thing. New homes hand over with construction residue rather than household dirt — fine dust that has settled into every surface and reappears for days, adhesive and label residue, and debris in tracks and cavities. If the property is a new build, say so when booking: heavy construction dust needs post-construction cleaning, which is a different method, not just a longer visit.
For landlords, property managers and realtors
Tenant turnover cleaning, move-in preparation, pre-sale and open-house cleaning, recurring cleans across a rental portfolio and post-renovation work all run on the same booking. Several properties can be scheduled together when a portfolio turns over at once.
What a handover clean covers
- Inside the oven, inside the fridge, inside the dishwasher and microwave
- Inside and on top of all emptied cabinets, drawers and wardrobes
- Full bathroom descaling — tub, shower, tile, glass, fixtures
- Skirting boards, door frames, switches, handles and vents
- Window tracks and interior glass
- Floors throughout, including under where furniture stood
The full room-by-room checklist lives on the move out cleaning page.
Where a handover clean stops
- Repairs, patching or painting over damage
- Removing furniture, rubbish or items left behind
- Heavy construction dust — that is post-construction cleaning
- Set-in carpet staining — carpet cleaning is a separate service
