- Carpets. Steam cleaning is usually quoted separately and is the single biggest add-on.
- Oven condition. A neglected oven can add two hours on its own, which is why it is often listed as an extra.

What makes end of tenancy cleaning more expensive?
Size and access are the two biggest factors, followed by urgency. Same-day and weekend work carries a premium, and anything above ground-floor level or requiring specialist equipment costs more. Materials, waste disposal and parking are often quoted separately, so check what is included.
How do I get an accurate price?
Post the job with photos, measurements and access details, and you will get fixed-price offers rather than estimates. Posting is free and there is no booking fee, so comparing three or four offers costs you nothing.
Should I pay per hour or a fixed price?
A fixed price for the whole job puts the risk of it overrunning on the tasker rather than on you. That is why every offer on Taskerama is a fixed total.
