Clearing and cleaningWe quote for the contents to sort or clear and the basement areas to clean afterwards. Tell us the room size, quantity and size of items, and how they can be moved through the stairs and doors.
Disposal and other workDisposal, hazardous materials, renovation and installation work need separate checks and arrangements. Tell us about unusual materials or building problems before booking, so those jobs are distinguished from sorting belongings and cleaning the basement.
Final totalWe confirm the clearing list, cleaning, any applicable minimum and the final booking total before the visit. If more items need removal or the way out changes, tell us so we can review the work and price first.

Basement Cleaning and Clearing — cleaning scope
Sorting belongings and cleaning the space
TaskOur work
Sort the contentsWe work through the contents with you, separating what you want to keep, move elsewhere or remove. You decide what happens to the belongings, and we use those decisions to organise the clearing and cleaning around them.
Clear the spaceWe clear the items you have approved and uncover the areas included for cleaning. We take account of the stairs, doorways and room available, discussing large items before the appointment rather than treating everything as simple loose rubbish.
Clean & organiseWe clean the floors and surfaces that can be reached after clearing, then arrange the retained items as discussed. Fixed shelving and belongings staying in place may still cover parts of the room, so we explain which areas can be cleaned.

Part of the jobHow we work
Agreeing what staysWe follow your decisions about stored belongings before removing anything. We distinguish items to keep, relocate and clear, including possessions belonging to another person. Tell us which boxes or storage areas must remain untouched, so we can work through the rest of the basement without deciding ownership or disposal for you.
Access through the propertyWe plan movement through the basement stairs and doors before clearing begins. Stair width, headroom and the size of furniture all matter. Photos of the steps, doorway and large items help us discuss the job alongside the quantity of belongings, rather than judging it only by the room’s floor area.
Cleaning after clearingWe clean the floors and surfaces uncovered by the clearance. We work around fixed shelving and items you are retaining, then arrange those belongings as discussed. If a cabinet or stored pile remains in place, we explain the part of the floor it covers instead of counting it as cleaned.
Damp, damage and unusual materialsWe need to know about damp, damaged surfaces and unusual materials before the visit. Cleaning the basement will not stop water entering or repair the building. Waste disposal, hazardous materials and improvements need separate discussion, so we can distinguish those jobs from the belongings and surfaces included in your appointment.

HOW WE WORK THROUGH THE ROOM

The clearing and cleaning stages
StageWhat we do
Look over the room and contentsWe start with the room dimensions, stored contents and the way out through the property. We check which items you want removed and where the kept belongings will go. This lets us plan the clearing around the stairs, doors and parts of the basement to clean.
Separate what stays and goesWe work from your keep, move and remove decisions before clearing. We note private boxes, retained furniture and anything belonging to another person. These instructions let us separate the items to clear from the things that should stay in the room or be arranged elsewhere.
Sort the contentsWe sort the included contents with you and keep the retained items distinguishable from those approved for removal. Where a decision is still needed, we ask rather than treating an unopened box as waste. You remain in charge of what is kept and what can leave.
Clear the spaceWe clear the approved items to make the listed floor areas and surfaces available for cleaning. We follow the movement discussed for the basement stairs and doors. Disposal is considered separately, including any unusual material that needs more information before it can be handled.
Clean & organiseWe clean the uncovered floor and other surfaces included in your booking. We then arrange the retained items in the places you have chosen. Tell us about the storage that will stay fixed so we can clean around it and explain any area that remains covered.
Check the room’s conditionWe distinguish ordinary dirt from damp, damaged surfaces or signs of a building problem while working through the space. Those conditions may need another service. We explain the affected area and any effect on the cleaning, with water-entry repairs and renovation kept separate from this job.
Review the cleared and cleaned spaceWe check the cleared items and cleaned areas against your list, then look over where retained belongings have been arranged. We explain anything left untouched, covered or needing separate work. This final check refers to the particular item or area so you know what remains in the room.

APPOINTMENT PLANNING

Plan the visit around your basement.

Information for a clearing and cleaning quote
Before the visitWhat to tell us
Room size and stored itemsGive the basement dimensions and describe the quantity of boxes, furniture and other contents. Tell us what should be removed and what will stay. Include large items and the stairs out of the room, since a small basement with bulky furniture can need different planning from loose storage boxes.
Photos of contents and stairsWe use wide photos to see the stored contents and floor, with separate views of stairs and doors. Show large items and any damp or damaged area. The photos help us discuss clearing and cleaning together, including parts of the room hidden behind the storage in an earlier picture.
Entry and a person to contactWe confirm how to enter the property and basement, including separate keys and restricted doors. Tell us who can answer questions about the contents if you will not be present. The person deciding what stays needs to have given instructions before any uncertain item is cleared.
Date and time availableWe discuss your preferred date and how long the basement can be made available, including any restrictions on moving items through shared areas. Tell us about a fixed handover or later work in the room. We confirm the appointment once the timing and way in are arranged.
Extra items or changed entryTell us if more items need clearing, a large piece is added or the stairs and doors will be different from those shown. We discuss the change and any effect on the quote before the visit. Newly uncovered damp or unusual material should also be reported before work begins.

Your basementThe work to include
A particular storage areaFor a smaller area, we sort the belongings you name, clear approved items and clean the space they uncover. We leave other storage untouched unless it has been included. Tell us where kept items should go, so the cleared area can be cleaned and the retained possessions arranged without making new storage decisions on the day.
A basement full of belongingsFor a fuller room, we plan the whole contents list and movement through the stairs before starting. We work through your keep and remove decisions, clear the approved items, and clean the floors and surfaces made available. Retained belongings are arranged as discussed, with fixed storage and covered areas explained during the final check.
Narrow stairs or a fixed dateWhere stairs, headroom or a fixed handover affect the visit, we discuss those details with the size and quantity of items. Disposal and hazardous materials need separate checks, as do renovation or installation jobs. We confirm the clearing and cleaning that can be arranged around the room and the way in and out.

SERVICE QUESTIONS

Questions about basement cleaning and clearing.

Basement Cleaning and Clearing — practical questions
QuestionAnswer
Do I decide which basement items are kept?Yes. You decide what stays, moves elsewhere or is removed. We work through those choices with you and follow instructions for private storage or another person’s belongings. Tell us what must remain untouched before the clearing begins.
What if the basement stairs are narrow?Send photos of the stairs, doors and larger items when asking for a quote. Stair width and headroom affect how contents can be moved, so we need those details alongside the amount to clear before confirming the visit.
Can you clean around shelving that is staying?We can discuss cleaning the floor and surfaces around retained storage. Show the fixed shelves and items staying in place so we know which areas will be clear. Covered or enclosed parts need to be distinguished from the areas we can clean.
Will the clean fix damp or water entering the basement?No. Cleaning does not repair the source of water entry or replace building work. Tell us about damp and damaged surfaces beforehand so we can discuss the cleaning separately from any repair or other work the basement needs.
Can you arrange the belongings I am keeping?Yes. We arrange retained items according to your instructions after cleaning the included areas. Tell us where you want them placed and which boxes or possessions must not be opened, so the room is organised around your choices.
Can a cellar clean include hazardous waste or renovation work?Disposal and hazardous materials need separate checks before they are included. Renovation and installation are separate work too. Describe unusual materials or intended improvements when contacting us, rather than leaving them to be discovered during the clearing and cleaning.
