Define exactly what the clean includes
The phrase 'deep clean' can mean different things. List rooms and extras so each cleaner prices the same scope.
- Give the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and main living spaces.
- Say whether the clean is recurring, one-off, moving-related or specialist.
- List ovens, carpets, upholstery, windows and heavy build-up separately.
- Confirm whether products and equipment are supplied by the cleaner.

Edinburgh rental-property context
Shared homes and short-term lets are both subject to Edinburgh-specific controls
Edinburgh's rental market includes licensed HMOs and a citywide short-term-let control area. These rules do not require a professional cleaner, but they make the property's actual use important when the clean is tied to a tenant changeover, inspection or holiday-let turnaround.
Three or more unrelated people sharing a home can bring it into HMO licensing
The City of Edinburgh Council defines HMO accommodation as the main home of three or more unrelated people who share facilities. If the cleaning job is for an HMO, say whether the scope is private rooms, communal areas, a full changeover or preparation for a landlord or licensing inspection.
The whole council area is a short-term-let control area
Edinburgh's control area means using an entire dwelling that is not the host's principal home as a short-term let is treated as a material change of use requiring planning permission. For turnaround or deep-clean work, identify whether the property is a normal tenancy, HMO, home-share or secondary short-term let rather than assuming every rental operates the same way.

Cleaners covering Edinburgh
Cleaners may cover Edinburgh by postcode, property type and schedule. Example areas include:
LeithStockbridgeMarchmontMorningsideNew TownPortobelloCorstorphineBruntsfield
Give the room count, condition and property use
A student HMO in Marchmont, a New Town flat, a short-term let near the centre and a family house in Morningside can need very different cleaning schedules and standards. State what the property is used for and what handover is expected.
Separate cleaning from clearance. Ovens, carpets, internal windows, heavy build-up, post-build dust and rubbish removal are often priced differently from an ordinary recurring clean.
How it works
Describe the cleaning scope once, then compare Edinburgh cleaners
Room counts, condition and extras help cleaners estimate time more accurately.

Add the postcode, property size, type of clean and any specialist extras.
Hear from suitable cleaners
Up to three interested Edinburgh cleaning professionals can respond.
Compare scope and reviews
Check verified feedback and compare hours, products, equipment and what is included before booking.
Before you hire
What should you check before hiring a cleaner?
A clear definition of the finished standard matters more than a vague promise of a certain number of hours.
Agree the checklist
Specify rooms, appliances, inside cupboards, windows and carpets where they form part of the job.
Confirm products and equipment
Ask whether the cleaner brings supplies and whether specialist surfaces need particular products.
Plan access and parking
For apartments or managed rentals, arrange keys, entry and any parking restrictions before the visit.
Questions
Cleaners in Edinburgh: common questions
Useful answers before you post the job.
How much does a cleaner cost in Edinburgh?
Rates vary with property size, condition, frequency and cleaning type. Compare quotes using the same room count and checklist.
Can I use this page for end-of-tenancy or short-term-let cleaning?
Yes. Include the handover time, room count, laundry or linen requirements if relevant and any landlord, agent or host checklist.
When can an Edinburgh shared property need an HMO licence?
The council describes HMOs as the main home of three or more unrelated people sharing facilities, subject to the statutory rules and exemptions.
Does HMO or short-term-let status mean I must hire a professional cleaner?
No. Those regimes regulate the property and its use; they do not create a general requirement to use a professional cleaning company.
Do I have to hire a cleaner who responds?
No. Up to three interested local professionals can respond and there is no obligation to hire.
