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.

Portsmouth rental and cleaning context
Portsmouth's city-wide HMO licensing makes property type especially relevant for landlord and agent cleaning jobs
Portsmouth has one of the clearest local HMO regimes in the country: all HMOs in the city require a licence. That does not create a general rule to hire a cleaner, but it makes accurate property and handover details important for shared-rental work.
All HMOs in Portsmouth require a licence
Portsmouth City Council says all HMOs in the city have required a licence since 1 September 2023, including many properties occupied by three or four unrelated people. If the job is for a shared rental, say whether it is routine cleaning, a tenant turnover or preparation for inspection.
Rubbish removal is separate from ordinary cleaning
Portsmouth City Council does not collect business waste and requires businesses to use lawful commercial disposal arrangements. If the cleaner is also removing furniture, renovation debris or large quantities of rubbish, agree that service separately.

Give the room count and actual condition
A shared house in Southsea, a Fratton flat and a family home in North End can require very different visit lengths. State bedrooms, bathrooms, condition and any specialist tasks.
List extras separately. Ovens, carpets, inside windows, heavy build-up and rubbish removal are often priced differently from routine cleaning.

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 Portsmouth: common questions
Useful answers before you post the job.
How much does a cleaner cost in Portsmouth?
Rates vary with property size, condition, frequency and the type of clean. Compare quotes using the same room count and checklist.
Can I use this page for an end-of-tenancy clean?
Yes. Include the handover date, property size and any landlord or agent checklist.
Does Portsmouth HMO licensing mean I must hire a professional cleaner?
No. HMO licensing regulates qualifying shared properties and their management; it does not create a general requirement to use a professional cleaner.
Can a cleaner take rubbish away too?
Some can, but ask specifically. Waste removal is a separate service and business-waste rules apply when a company removes the waste.
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.
