Costs of end-of-tenancy cleaning and handover cleaning in 2026
How much does an end-of-tenancy cleaning of your rental or owned house cost? Sample calculations per property type and what the price depends on.
An end-of-tenancy cleaning is more thorough than a regular clean: inside cupboards, appliances, limescale, skirting boards, everything. This means it takes longer. What does it cost?
The price at 321clean
You book an end-of-tenancy cleaning with 321clean at € 34,90 per hour. You only pay for the hours you book, and only after the cleaning.
| Empty property | Guideline hours | Indication |
|---|---|---|
| Studio / apartment up to 50 m² | 4–5 hours | € 139,60 – € 174,50 |
| Apartment 50–80 m² | 5–6 hours | € 174,50 – € 209,40 |
| Family home 80–120 m² | 7–9 hours | € 244,30 – € 314,10 |
| Large property | 10+ hours | from € 349,00 |
These are guidelines for a property in normal condition. A lot of limescale, grease, or a dirty oven will take extra time. With two cleaners, you'll be done in half the time, for the same total price.
What does the price depend on?
- Surface area and number of rooms
- Condition of the property: limes, grease, mould
- Extras: oven, fridge, windows, balcony, storage
- Urgency: a handover tomorrow is harder to schedule than in a week
