By Once Christmas Day has passed, many Edinburgh households face the same familiar scene — wrapping paper still sitting under the coffee table, crumbs on the kitchen floor, fingerprints on every surface, toys scattered around the living room, and dishes stacked higher than usual. December is a wonderful month, but it also leaves homes messier, busier, and harder to manage.
To help families stay on top of things, MT Cleaners is offering a special 2-hour general clean for only £25, starting from 25th November and available throughout the festive season. Whether you’re recovering from holiday gatherings or preparing for visitors between Christmas and New Year, this quick refresh is the easiest way to bring your home back under control.
From Stockbridge to Corstorphine, Leith to Portobello, and Queensferry to Dalmeny, households across Edinburgh book this service when December gets overwhelming and time runs short.
Why Post-Christmas Cleaning Matters
Even the most organised families find their homes looking different after Christmas. There is more cooking, more foot traffic, more decorations, more gatherings, and often far less free time. Between visiting relatives, Boxing Day shopping, and juggling school holidays, cleaning naturally takes a back seat.
A post-Christmas clean helps you:
- Reset the home before New Year
- Clear clutter from parties and family gatherings
- Freshen up the kitchen after heavy seasonal cooking
- Prepare for guests staying between Christmas and Hogmanay
- Create a calm, tidy base for the start of 2025
Most importantly, it removes the stress of trying to do everything yourself.

Christmas Gratitude: How Much Should You Tip a Cleaner?
In the UK, many families choose to give their cleaner a small Christmas thank-you. This could be:
- £10–£20 bonus
- A box of biscuits or chocolates
- A festive card
It’s not required, but it is a common and appreciated gesture during December.
Post-Renovation Cleaning vs Normal Cleaning — What’s the Difference?
Since many households renovate before the holidays, people often confuse post-renovation cleaning with standard cleaning.
Here’s the difference:
Post-Renovation Cleaning
- Removes dust created by building work
- Involves deep cleaning of walls, fixtures, fittings
- Requires specialist equipment
- Takes longer
- More detailed and labour-intensive
Normal Cleaning (like our £25 festive clean)
- General tidying
- Surface cleaning
- Quick refresh of key areas
- Focuses on appearance, not construction residue
Our Christmas offer is specifically for everyday festive mess — not builder’s dust.
