We have already delivered a 465-unit turnover at The Tannery on Bath Lane, so the scale is proven, not promised.

What We Clean in Leicester Student Accommodation
Leicester is a two-university city. De Montfort University sits beside the River Soar in the city centre, and the University of Leicester is on University Road to the south. Student housing follows that split: purpose-built blocks around Newarke Street, Grange Lane, Raw Dykes Road and the West End, and shared houses in Clarendon Park (around Queens Road), Stoneygate, Highfields, Oadby, and the Castle and Westcotes wards around Narborough Road and Upperton Road.
What does student accommodation cleaning in Leicester include?
Ensuite bathrooms, studio and cluster-flat living spaces, shared kitchens including oven and appliance degreasing, corridors, lifts, stairwells and bin stores. The scope is agreed room by room at a free site survey and set out in writing before work starts.
Summer Turnover Deep Cleans
A full reset between academic years: ensuites, studios and kitchens, with oven degreasing, inspected unit by unit before handover.
Purpose-Built Student Blocks
Entrances, lifts, corridors, laundry rooms, lounges and bin stores in blocks around the city centre, the West End, Newarke Street and Raw Dykes Road, scheduled around move-in and exam periods.
Cluster Flats and Shared Kitchens
Heavy-use shared kitchens and bathrooms, where grease and limescale build up fastest and where cleaning is often left to residents between visits.
Student Houses and HMOs
Communal cleaning and room-turnover cleans for shared houses in Clarendon Park, Stoneygate, Highfields and the West End, with photo reports for landlords who manage several addresses.
End-of-Tenancy and Void Cleans
Cleans measured against the check-in inventory, with dated photos to support fair deposit decisions.
Mid-Year Refreshes
A scheduled deep clean after the Christmas break, when kitchens and bathrooms have taken a term of wear.
Our Leicester reference is The Tannery, 115 Bath Lane, in the West End: a 465-unit summer turnover (ensuites, studios and kitchens with heavy-duty oven degreasing) completed in 5 days by a 45-person crew, with every unit inspected before handover. The full write-up is in the case study linked below. The Leicester turnover calendar is tight: shared-house tenancies and halls empty from late June, voids need cleaning through July and August, and most students arrive in September. Mandatory HMO licensing applies to shared houses with five or more occupants from more than one household, and councils can add their own schemes, so check Leicester City Council for the rules that apply to your property.
What Leicester Student Accommodation Managers Commonly Worry About
These are the concerns that come up most when managers and landlords talk about student cleaning in Leicester. Here is how we address them.
Everyone turns over in the same few weeks
Late June to September is a squeeze for every block and shared house in the city. Large turnovers are scheduled day by day against your handover date, and we have already delivered 465 units in 5 days on Bath Lane.
Shared kitchens left to residents
In many buildings the bathrooms are cleaned for residents while kitchens are left to them until standards slip. Shared kitchens and oven degreasing can be written into the scope so they are not an afterthought.
Previous tenants leaving rooms in a state
Void and end-of-tenancy cleans are done to an agreed room-by-room checklist, with dated photos, so the next student arrives to a room that matches the handover.
Several houses and no way to check them all
Landlords with houses across Clarendon Park, the West End and Highfields get timestamped photo reports for each visit, so there is evidence without visiting every address.
What You Can Expect From Klean Touch
Proof of work with timestamped photo reports
Every visit is backed by a checklist and timestamped photo reporting, so you can see what was done without inspecting the building yourself.
Cover when your cleaner is off
Staff absence cover is part of the service, so a sick day or holiday does not mean a missed clean.
DBS-checked cleaners
We only work with cleaners who hold their own DBS checks, and we can provide evidence on request.
