Local knowledge

Cleaning in Southwark: what’s different

Water & limescale

Hard water (Thames Water)

Thames Water places Southwark in its clean-water charging area and classifies all water across its region as hard. Limescale can therefore appear on taps, shower screens, tiles and similar surfaces, so any descaling needed for checkout should be agreed as part of the cleaning scope.

Property types

Homes in Southwark

Census 2021 shows 39.7% of Southwark households socially rented, 28.9% owner-occupied and 28.7% privately rented.

Southwark’s Census 2021 tenure mix includes a large social rented sector alongside owner-occupied and privately rented homes. The cleaning plan should still be set by the property’s actual rooms, layout, floor level, communal areas and building access rather than its tenure category.

Renting

Renting in Southwark

Selective licensing currently covers qualifying private rentals in 19 Southwark wards, while borough-wide additional licensing applies to HMOs outside mandatory licensing. The additional designation is due to end on 1 March 2027, so the current scheme should be rechecked if publication is delayed.

Parking & access

Planning the team’s arrival

Residents in a Southwark Controlled Parking Zone can buy digital or paper visitor permits. Digital options include one-hour, five-hour and all-day periods, so confirm the applicable zone and arrange enough legal parking for the cleaning appointment before the team travels.

Rental notes for Southwark

HMOs and shared houses in Southwark

Southwark additional licensing can cover smaller shared homes with up to four occupiers, certain section 257 buildings and qualifying flats in purpose-built blocks. For cleaning, list the bedrooms and shared kitchens, bathrooms and communal spaces included rather than relying on the licence category.

7-Day Re-Clean Guarantee

If a landlord, letting agent or inventory clerk identifies an eligible cleaning issue in an area included in the agreed cleaning scope within seven days, contact Properly Services. Subject to our Terms and Conditions, we’ll return to re-clean the eligible area.

Can I arrange visitor parking for a Southwark clean?

Yes. Residents in a Controlled Parking Zone can buy visitor permits in digital or paper form. Digital permits offer one-hour, five-hour and all-day periods, so check the zone controls and select enough time for the cleaning appointment.

Where does Southwark selective licensing apply?

The current selective licensing designations cover qualifying private rentals in 19 wards. Separate borough-wide additional licensing applies to HMOs outside mandatory licensing and is currently due to end on 1 March 2027, so address-specific requirements should be checked.

Which smaller HMOs can need additional licensing in Southwark?

Additional licensing can include qualifying HMOs let to a maximum of four people who share facilities, certain section 257 HMOs and qualifying multiple-occupation flats in purpose-built blocks. Mandatory licensing applies separately where its criteria are met.
