Moving out is stressful enough, but sometimes tenants or landlords realise at the very last minute that a full clean is required. Whether it’s because of a forgotten clause in the tenancy agreement, a failed agent inspection, or tenants running out of time, same-day end of tenancy cleaning in Edinburgh can be a lifesaver.
But how realistic is it to get a property cleaned on the same day — and what should you expect when booking?
Can You Book the Same-Day End of Tenancy Cleaning in Edinburgh?
Yes — many professional cleaners in Edinburgh, including MT Cleaners, offer same-day and emergency booking slots. However, availability depends on:
- Time of day you call (morning = better chance)
- Property size (1–2 beds easier than 5-bed HMOs)
- Team availability (weekends and month-end are busiest)
👉 Pro tip: Always call rather than email — phone bookings get priority for last-minute jobs.
What Same-Day Cleaning Includes
Even if booked last minute, a proper service should still cover all checkout essentials, including:
- Full kitchen clean (oven, hob, fridge, cupboards)
- Bathrooms disinfected and limescale-free
- Bedrooms, hallways, and living areas dusted, vacuumed, and mopped
- Carpets vacuumed (shampoo optional if time allows)
- Interior windows cleaned
A same-day clean should still meet letting agent and TDS standards — otherwise it won’t protect the deposit.

What’s Realistic with Limited Time
- Small flats (studio–2 bed): Usually possible same day, full service completed.
- Medium properties (3–4 bed): May require a larger team to complete in time.
- Large HMOs (5+ beds): Same-day booking may only cover essentials unless you secure multiple cleaners.
⚠️ Carpet shampooing or external window cleaning may not be possible for very late bookings.
Cost of Same-Day End of Tenancy Cleaning in Edinburgh
Expect to pay a small premium for urgent bookings, typically £20–£40 more than standard pricing.
Property Size | Standard Price | Same-Day Price |
1-Bed Flat | £120 | £140–£150 |
2-Bed Flat | £150 | £170–£190 |
4-Bed House | £180 | £210–£230 |
Still, this is far cheaper than losing hundreds from a deposit or delaying new tenants moving in.
When to Choose Same-Day Cleaning
- Tenant forgot tenancy agreement clause
- Agent inspection failed
- New tenants moving in tomorrow
