Cleaning is the number one cause of deposit disputes in the UK. A Lynch clean takes it off the table.
Your evidence at check-out
Report plus receipt, side by side.
Losing part of your deposit isn't normal. It's avoidable.
Cleaning is named in 54% of all UK deposit disputes. Not damage, not rent, cleaning. Which means the single biggest threat to your deposit is also the one you can completely remove before you hand the keys back.
of all UK deposit disputes name cleaning. Most of those could have been avoided.
You could scrub for two days and still fail the check-out.
It isn't about effort. The check-out is done against a professional standard, item by item, by an inventory clerk. Ovens are opened. Washing machine drawers are pulled out. Rubber seals are checked. Skirting boards, corners, edges. Most DIY cleans fail on the things nobody thinks to look at, because tenants have never seen what a clerk actually checks. We have. It's our day job.

Gardens, patios, carpets and upholstery are separate services. We'll tell you upfront what's included.
Lynch is an inventory company that cleans. That's the difference.
We produce inventory reports for London's biggest letting agencies, so our cleaning teams are trained through an inventory clerk's lens. They clean what the clerk will check, because we are the people who check. We've even helped agencies build the cleaning specifications they hand to tenants.
The receipt is your proof
After the clean you get a dated receipt from a named London company. At check-out, the conversation changes from "I don't think this was professionally cleaned" to a documented fact.
Questions tenants usually ask
Do I have to hire a professional? Can't I just do it myself?
Legally, no, you don't have to. But DIY cleans are the single biggest source of move-out disputes. If the inventory clerk thinks it's not to standard, that's now a claim against your deposit. Professional clean plus receipt means the clerk checks it off and moves on. One costs money upfront. The other costs money, and stress, later.
Will you clean the carpets or outside areas too?
Our standard clean covers hard floors and interior surfaces. Carpet refresh is available as an add-on. Gardens, patios and external windows are separate services. We'll tell you upfront what's included and what isn't.
What if the inventory clerk still finds something?
We come back and re-clean at no charge. The Lynch Guarantee covers this: if we miss something the clerk flags, we fix it.

The 14-Day Lynch Guarantee
Most of the check-out process happens after the clean. The clerk may not visit for days. We set the guarantee at 14 days so the protection is still live when the report is written.
The guarantee runs for 14 days from your clean, tied to the check-out process rather than the calendar. If the inventory clerk flags something we've missed, tell us and we'll come back and put it right at no cost. We're human, and now and then we don't get it perfect first time. When that happens, we sort it quickly, without drama, ahead of new work.

The clean is small money next to the deposit
A London deposit is capped at five weeks' rent, which for most tenancies means thousands of pounds. A professional end of tenancy clean costs a few hundred. Set one against the other and the clean comes to a few per cent of the money it's there to protect. Cleaning is the single biggest cause of deposit deductions in the UK. This is the corner not worth cutting.
