Heath-frontage Putney is its own kind of work. The flats overlooking the heath itself, the grand Edwardian houses on Heathview Gardens and Heathfield Terrace, the 1930s mansion blocks off West Hill, the post-war infill blocks like Asherton Court and Whitelands House; inventory standards on these are a notch above standard Wandsworth stock. Knight Frank, Savills, Hamptons, Marsh and Parsons, KFH and Foxtons all letting on this stretch, and each clerk has their own pet checklist item.

Six recurring failure points across the 700-odd Putney Heath jobs we have done since 2014. None of them are exotic. All of them are fixable in one visit if the cleaner knows the property type.
The Renters’ Rights Act 2025 and what it changed
The Renters’ Rights Act 2025 abolished Section 21 no-fault evictions and shifted assured shortholds to periodic tenancies from 1 May 2026. The clean itself has not changed in scope, but two things have. First, agents are now sending check-out clerks earlier in the notice period because the tenant can leave on two months notice rather than waiting on a fixed-term end date, which compresses the clean window.
Second, deposit-deduction disputes are increasingly resolved through the deposit scheme’s adjudication route rather than face-to-face at the property. That makes paper evidence (photos, the cleaner’s checklist signed off, a receipted invoice) more valuable than ever. Our 57-point agent-approved checklist is signed by the lead cleaner and dated, and you get a copy by email the same evening.
Wandsworth Council and the heath itself
Putney Heath sits in the London Borough of Wandsworth, contiguous with Wimbledon Common across the A3 boundary at Tibbet’s Corner. The Wandsworth private renting money disputes page is the council’s signpost for tenants whose deposits have been withheld. It points you to the three protection schemes, and to Shelter’s help line for cases that have stalled.
Wandsworth does not run a selective licensing scheme on this stretch, so private-sector landlords on Telegraph Road and Heathview Gardens are not currently required to register beyond the standard HMO rules, but the council’s environmental health team will inspect on a Section 11 disrepair complaint, and a clean property at hand-back removes one common counter-argument from a landlord’s file.
The heath-frontage limescale problem
Thames Water rates the SW15 supply at roughly 280-300 mg/l of calcium carbonate, which is firmly in the very-hard band. On a 4-year tenancy in an Edwardian house with original sanitaryware, the build-up on shower screens, mixer taps and around the rim of the toilet pan is severe enough that a regular clean does not shift it.
We use a phosphoric-based scale remover on the chrome and a mild abrasive cream on the porcelain, working in two passes with a 20-minute soak between.
The mansion-block bathrooms in Whitelands House and Asherton Court tend to have 1980s refits with sealed shower cubicles, and the worst build-up sits in the bottom track of the sliding door rather than on the screen itself. We open the track, clear it, and re-seal where the silicone has gone amber.
Coverage: streets and zones
Where we work in SW15 day to day. Most jobs are clustered around the heath itself and the side roads off Telegraph Road and West Hill.
- Telegraph Road, both sides, from the Telegraph pub down to the Putney Vale junction.
- Heathview Gardens, Heathfield Terrace, and the cul-de-sacs off Wildcroft Road.
- The mansion blocks: Whitelands House, Asherton Court, Highlands Heath, and the smaller blocks on Westleigh Avenue.
- West Hill from the Green Man pub down towards Tibbet’s Corner.
- Wildcroft Manor and the gated Edwardian semis on the Roehampton side of the heath.
- The flats above the parade of shops near the Putney Heath bus stand on the A3.
- Putney Vale and the streets backing onto the cemetery.
- The lower end of Putney Hill where it meets the heath proper.
If your address is on the Roehampton side past the Alton Estate boundary, that is borderline, so ring us and we will tell you straight whether it is a Putney Heath job or a Roehampton job. The pricing is the same either way.
What is included in a Putney Heath end of tenancy clean
End of tenancy is the hand-back clean. Deep is for staying. Regular is for keeping it tidy. The work below is the first one: a fixed-scope service designed to match the inventory clerk’s checklist line by line. We do not skip rooms, we do not negotiate fridge interiors, and we do not finish early.
Kitchen
Behind the cooker if it pulls out, hood and filter degreased (the metal mesh filters on most Asherton Court flats go in a hot soak), oven interior including the door glass and the seal, hob and splashback, all cupboard interiors and shelves wiped, fridge and freezer defrosted and cleaned, washing machine drawer and rubber gasket, microwave inside and out, sink and taps descaled, floor washed twice.
The 1930s mansion blocks often have original tiled splashbacks behind the cooker, and we treat those carefully because the grout is unsealed and aggressive bleach takes the colour out.
Bathrooms
Toilet pan including the rim and behind the cistern, basin and pedestal, shower screen or cubicle including tracks, taps, mixer fittings, tiles and grout, extractor fan grille (this is a common deduction line in the mansion blocks because tenants rarely touch it), the airing cupboard which the heath-frontage clerks always check because the heating runs hot in those flats and the towels go musty. Floor mopped on a fresh head.
Bedrooms and living areas
Skirting boards, picture rails (Edwardian houses on Heathview Gardens still have original picture rails on most ground-floor rooms), window sills inside, internal sash and casement frames, light switches, plug sockets, behind radiators, full hoover including under the bed, mirrors, the back of every door, and the brass or chrome door furniture polished. We move smaller items but we do not shift wardrobes; we vacuum behind them where access allows.
Throughout
Floors, all of them, on a fresh mop head per property. Wooden floors damp-wiped only. We do not flood-clean parquet because most of the original Edwardian parquet on West Hill is not sealed.
Carpets are vacuumed as standard; carpet shampoo is a separate add-on (£29 per bedroom, £94 for two bedrooms and a living room) and you should book it if your inventory has been in for more than two years. Door tops, which collect grey dust and which clerks check by running a finger along.
What it costs in Putney Heath
The work in Putney Heath is heavier per room. Heath-frontage flats run larger; the mansion blocks have more internal woodwork; Edwardian houses have picture rails, sash windows, parquet floors and original tiling that all need a careful pass. The numbers below are the standard fixed-fee EOT prices for SW15 heath-side; they include all consumables, and the 48-hour re-clean guarantee.
| Property | Empty + clean | Furnished |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | £156 | £156 |
| 1-bed flat | £207 | £207 |
| 2-bed flat | £243 | £243 |
| 3-bed flat or house | £339 | £339 |
| 4-bed house | £425 | £425 |
Hourly rate where a fixed quote does not fit (an unusually large Edwardian house, a part-clean, an out-of-hours job): £30 per cleaner. Add-ons: carpet shampoo £29 per bedroom, £36 for the living room, £94 for two bedrooms and a living room.
Oven add-on if you want a deeper clean of a heavily-soiled appliance: £31 single, £62 double or a 90cm range cooker. Window cleaning interior is included; exterior on heath-frontage flats above the second floor is a separate quote because of the access kit needed.
Why Putney Heath jobs run longer. The mansion blocks have lift-only access on most floors, parking is metered along Telegraph Road and on West Hill, and the Edwardian houses run to 110-130 square metres on the ground floor alone.
We send three or four cleaners on a 2-bed rather than the two we would send to a Tooting flat, and the job takes six to seven hours rather than the five it takes off-heath, at the same price for the bedroom count.
What your agent will actually check at hand-back
This is the inventory clerk’s order of operations on a Putney Heath check-out, based on watching Foxtons, Hamptons, KFH, Knight Frank and Marsh and Parsons clerks at work over twelve years.
- Kitchen extractor hood and the metal filter, the single most common deduction line.
- Oven interior glass and the rubber door seal.
- Inside the fridge and freezer, including the seal and the drainage hole at the back.
- Tops of doors, picture rails, and the tops of kitchen wall units. Finger swipe.
- Behind the toilet pan, the cistern fixings, and the underside of the seat.
- Shower screen tracks and the silicone bead around the bath.
- The airing cupboard. Always.
- Inside every cupboard and drawer in the kitchen, especially the under-sink one where the U-bend is.
- Window frames, the meeting rail on a sash, and the inside of the trickle vent.
- Skirting board tops and the gap behind radiators.
- Carpets in the master bedroom: the tenant’s side of the bed is where any pet hair will have collected.
- The communal hallway floor outside the flat, where the mansion-block leases require the tenant to keep clean to the doorway.
Our 57-point agent-approved checklist covers every item on this list and twenty more. The occasional query triggers our 48-hour re-clean guarantee: we come back, fix what the clerk flagged, and you do not pay extra for the return visit. We have helped tenants recover £1.2m in deposits across the 300+ letting agents we work with regularly.
How booking a Putney Heath EOT clean works
- You ring or email. Tell us the postcode, the bedroom count, the check-out date, and whether the property is empty or still partly furnished. Two minutes on the phone.
- We quote a fixed fee, in writing, by email. No site visit needed for a standard 1-bed or 2-bed.
- You confirm by reply and we book a slot. Lead time is 48-72 hours typically; same-day or next-day on cancellations.
- Crew arrives in a Monster Cleaning van, in branded polos, with the lead cleaner carrying a printed copy of the 57-point checklist.
- You get the signed checklist by email the same evening, plus an receipt.
Payment is by card or bank transfer. We do not take cash on heath-frontage jobs because the landlord file usually wants a paper invoice anyway. If the agent flags any item within 48 hours of the clean, we return free.
Related services and neighbouring areas
Add-ons that pair with an EOT in Putney Heath. Carpet cleaning is the one most heath-frontage tenants book alongside the EOT, especially on a 4-year-plus tenancy. Oven cleaning is the next, particularly on the 1980s-refit mansion-block kitchens where the original double oven is often well past its prime. Upholstery cleaning on furnished flats is the third.
If the lease furniture is being handed back, getting the sofa cleaned can save the sofa replacement deduction. We also offer window cleaning for the larger Edwardian houses where interior-only is not enough. Neighbouring areas we cover: end of tenancy cleaning across Wandsworth as the parent borough hub, plus Roehampton, Putney proper, Southfields, and the Wimbledon Common side of the boundary in Merton.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does end of tenancy cleaning cost in Putney Heath?
Studio £156, 1-bed £207, 2-bed £243, 3-bed £339, 4-bed £425 for an empty property. A furnished flat costs the same. All prices include the 48-hour re-clean guarantee.
How long does a Putney Heath EOT clean take?
A 1-bed flat takes three to four hours with two cleaners. A 2-bed mansion-block flat in Asherton Court or Whitelands House takes six to seven hours with three. A 4-bed Edwardian house on Heathview Gardens takes a full day with four cleaners.
Do you clean carpets and ovens as part of the EOT or as add-ons?
Hoovering is included. Carpet shampoo is an add-on at £29 per bedroom or £94 for two bedrooms and a living room. The oven is an add-on: £31 single or £62 double.
Will Foxtons, Hamptons, KFH, or Knight Frank accept your clean at check-out?
Yes. We have worked with all four agents on Putney Heath jobs since 2014, and our 57-point checklist matches the inventory format clerks use.
What happens if the inventory clerk flags something after the clean?
Our 48-hour re-clean guarantee covers it. We return at no extra cost to fix anything the clerk has flagged in writing within 48 hours of the clean. The cleaner who did the original job comes back where possible.
Do I need to be at the property during the clean?
No. Most Putney Heath tenants leave a key with the porter at Asherton Court or Whitelands House, or with the letting agent’s branch on Putney Heath High Street. We collect, clean, and drop the key back.
Can you clean a heavily-furnished flat?
Yes. The price is the same as for an empty flat, and we work around the furniture rather than moving it. If the furniture is being collected after the clean we can re-attend for a top-up wipe-down, charged at £30 per cleaner per hour for the second visit only.
How hard is the water in Putney Heath?
Thames Water classifies SW15 as very hard at roughly 280-300 mg/l of calcium carbonate. That is the reason mixer taps and shower screens build up scale fast in the mansion blocks, and why the descaling element of our checklist is so detailed.
Do you do same-day or weekend cleans?
Yes to both, subject to crew availability. Weekend slots in Putney Heath book up two weeks ahead through May, June, and September because they coincide with academic-year tenancy turnovers. Ring early if you have a Saturday check-out.
What about the Renters’ Rights Act 2025: does that change my deposit position?
The Act, in force from 1 May 2026, abolishes Section 21 and converts assured shortholds to periodic tenancies, but the deposit-protection rules and the deduction-dispute route through the three protection schemes are unchanged. A clean property at hand-back is still the simplest way to avoid a deduction. The schemes still adjudicate disputes within roughly 28 days of escalation.
Do you handle the kind of older Edwardian houses on Heathview Gardens with original picture rails and parquet?
Yes. Picture rails are listed on our 57-point checklist as a specific item. Original parquet floors are damp-wiped only, never flood-cleaned, because the lacquer on most heath-side parquet is original and porous. Tell us at the quote stage and we will brief the cleaner accordingly.
Can I dispute a deposit deduction with mydeposits or TDS if the agent claims the clean was inadequate?
Yes. Each of Tenancy Deposit Scheme, mydeposits, and DPS runs an Alternative Dispute Resolution service free to tenants. Our signed checklist and the dated photos we send by email count as paper evidence in the adjudication.
What is the deposit cap for a Putney Heath rental?
Five weeks rent under the Tenant Fees Act 2019 for any annual rent under £50,000. Average 2-bed rent on Putney Heath is around £2,500 to £2,800 a month, so the typical deposit is £2,900 to £3,200 and recovering it in full is worth the cost of a thorough clean.
Are you insured?
Yes. Public liability cover through Hiscox. Documentation available on request from office@monstercleaning.com.
Where can I find out more about my rights as a tenant in Wandsworth?
The Wandsworth private tenants rights page is the council’s signpost. Shelter’s helpline is the next step if a deposit dispute has stalled at the agent stage.
