Common scenarios where post-rental cleaning is essential
Every end-of-lease period is different. The circumstances, length of the contract, and type of use of the home directly influence cleaning needs. That's why Domestina offers customized solutions designed to adapt to all possible scenarios:
- Housing rented for several years When an apartment has been rented for years, the accumulation of deep dirt is inevitable. Cleaning after tenants becomes a true restoration, removing old stains, ingrained grease, and invisible residue that time has consolidated.
- Vacation or tourist rentals These properties require fast and efficient services. Between bookings, the team from Domestina can work to ensure seamless turnover, with visible results within a few hours. Cleaning to return your home in these conditions improves guest ratings and boosts your online reputation.
- Partially rented spaces Rental rooms, shared apartments, or homes with intermittent use also require cleaning between leases. In these cases, cleaning focuses on common areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, or living rooms, allowing for a refreshed environment without the need for a complete overhaul.
- Rentals in poor condition In some cases, outgoing tenants fail to return the property in acceptable condition. In these cases, end-of-lease cleaning not only restores aesthetics but also hygiene and habitability without the landlord having to personally get involved.
