Professional Housing and Residential Cleaning Services
When a property—whether it's a residential home in social housing or a private residence—faces an extreme hygiene challenge, from complex trauma to significant mould, it demands more than standard cleaning.
At Rentokil Specialist Hygiene, we provide expert, rapid, and empathetic solutions for the most complex hygiene issues. We work across the social housing sector and private residences to ensure properties are continually maintained, quickly and discreetly restoring them to a safe, habitable, and legally compliant standard. We offer both scheduled and reactive cleaning services, including an emergency 24/7/365 response for urgent events like floods, fires, sewage leaks.
What are Professional Cleaning Services for Housing?
Professional residential property cleaning services go far beyond the scope of standard domestic cleaning. They involve highly trained, qualified cleaning technicians equipped with the right tools and high level cleaning disinfectants. This is often referred to as specialist hygiene or extreme cleaning, and it is required for situations that pose a significant health risk or emotional challenge, such as trauma, unattended death, vacated properties, hoarding, mould or biohazard contamination.
Why Choose Professional Cleaning & Hygiene Services for Housing
By contracting a professional specialist hygiene cleaner for your property, you are assured of the highest standards in cleaning and disinfection. Experienced cleaning technicians will quickly be able to identify the most suitable way of removing hazards and biohazards, and restoring all areas and surfaces quickly and efficiently. In the case of rented properties, they will also ensure that all works are carried out in accordance with housing regulations and with tenant safety in mind. Landlords in the UK have a legal responsibility under the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 to ensure that properties are kept safe, healthy and free from things that could cause serious harm
A fast, discreet and professional house cleaning service is essential in restoring a property safely, quickly, and legally.
Our Housing and Residential Specialist Cleaning Services
Mould Cleaning Services
Exposure to black mould can have a devastating effect on health. Once inhaled, mould spores can cause numerous respiratory problems, including Aspergillosis, and worsen existing conditions such as bronchitis and asthma. From October 2025, social landlords have to address all damp and mould hazards that present a significant risk of harm to tenants to fixed timeframes, under Awaabs law.
Rentokil Specialist Hygiene are experts in mould remediation. Our two part mould eradication process effectively destroys and cleans mould from household surfaces and helps to prevent its return.
Fire and Flood Damage Restoration
The damage left behind from a fire or flood can be catastrophic, and is almost always distressful and difficult to deal with, and knowing what to do after a flood or fire in a rental property can be a minefield. Our expert teams regularly undertake post-fire and flood restoration to quickly restore properties, using modern solutions such as latex fire cleaning products, or rapid dry convection drying for flood restoration.
Sewage, Biohazard and Odour Removal
The bacteria and viruses left behind from biohazards such as blood and vomit, and raw sewage from flooding, can result in nasty illnesses through exposure to E. coli, Salmonella, Hepatitis, and several harmful viruses such as Norovirus. Correct containment and thorough disinfection are vital to protect residents’ health in the aftermath of incidents such as these. The inevitable malodour left behind can be effectively removed by the use of professional air purifiers or by ‘cleaning’ the air using ozone via our dedicated ozone odour remediation service.
Void Property Clearance and End of Tenancy Deep Cleans
Before new tenants can occupy a property, it must be made safe, clean and occupiable. Unfortunately, many properties are left in a disorderly and unhygienic state by the previous occupiers, with large amounts of rubbish, damp conditions, and even biohazards such as human waste and vomit remaining. Our house cleaning teams are experienced in dealing with a multitude of hazards in void properties, and have access to a range of specialised equipment and industrial chemical solutions to provide void property cleaning, and end of tenancy cleaning for landlords.
Graffiti, Bird Dropping and Exterior Restoration
First impressions are vital, and as homely as the interior may be, it's just as important to maintain the exterior of a building as clean and inviting. Graffiti, bird fouling, and an accumulation of dirt and dust on building exteriors, especially canopies and facades, can give a negative impression and even put off would-be tenants.
For exterior building cleaning services, Rentokil Specialist Hygiene have specialist teams who can access any area of a building, including rope access specialists and working at height trained technicians. We use a variety of modern methods and equipment to remove any defacement and leave it looking its best.
