Why furnished properties need a defined scope
Furniture, appliances, upholstery, rugs, cupboards and decorative items create more surfaces and access decisions than an empty property. List what is present, what may be moved, what must remain in place and which items are already damaged. The condition report and lease remain the reference for responsibility.
Clean appliances and furniture safely
Follow each appliance manual and upholstery care code. Keep liquid away from controls, use suitable products on stone and timber, and do not dismantle, repair or move a heavy item without approval. Carpet, upholstery, windows, ovens and exterior areas should be listed as separate inclusions when required.

Separate cleaning from repairs and extras
Cleaning can remove suitable soil and residue from the agreed scope. It does not restore worn finishes, repair leaks, replace missing items, treat pests, remove hazardous materials or fix broken appliances. Confirm access, condition and optional work in writing before booking.
Prepare for the handover
Remove personal belongings and rubbish, keep utilities available, provide keys and the agent checklist, and allow enough time before inspection. Dirt2Tidy can quote a furnished end-of-lease scope. Where the applicable policy includes seven-day re-clean support, it remains limited to that policy and never guarantees a bond refund.
