🧽 That Final Sparkle: The Power of Pre-Settlement Cleaning

Written By Han Pinkerton

You’ve signed the contracts. You’ve sold the house. You’re ready to hand over the keys.

But before you walk out the door — let’s give the place one last moment to shine.

At Pinkerton Property Care, we believe Pre-Settlement Cleaning is the unsung hero of the property world. It’s not just about ticking a box — it’s about leaving a legacy of care, and making sure your home looks just as good for the next chapter as it did for yours.

🏡 What Is Pre-Settlement Cleaning, Anyway?

Think of it as the final polish before the big handover. It’s not your regular weekly clean, and it’s not quite an end-of-lease scrub either. This is a deep, detailed clean designed specifically for homes that have just sold — and are about to welcome their new owners.

We target the spots that matter most:

  • Inside kitchen cupboards, drawers, and ovens

  • Showers, tiles, glass, and fittings sparkling in the bathrooms

  • Doors, walls, light switches and skirtings all wiped down

  • Floors vacuumed and mopped to perfection

  • Windows — inside and out, if access allows

  • Any leftover mess from packing, shifting, or moving? Gone.

🧹 Why It Matters

✅ Agents love it — it reflects professionalism and respect.
✅ Buyers notice — it sets the tone for a smooth, stress-free settlement.
✅ Sellers feel proud — it’s a beautiful way to close one chapter and honour the space that held so many memories.

🧼 Two Big Cleans in Torquay

Just last week, we completed two major pre-settlement cleans in Torquay. Both homes were relatively new builds, but well-loved family spaces — and both owners wanted to hand them over in top condition.

From the ovens to the cornices — and every skirting board in between — we gave them a deep, respectful clean that honoured the lives lived inside.
