Move-In Cleaning
For apartments and flats in Wari: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
Not every property needs the same approach. Move-In Cleaning in Wari looks different for apartments and flats than for other buildings: the layout, the surfaces, who is on site and when work can happen all change the plan. Dhaka Cleaners takes those details into account from the first conversation, so the team, equipment and timing match your property rather than a generic routine.
With apartments and flats, the practical side of move-in cleaning matters as much as the method. Who needs to be present, when the space can be out of use, where equipment can be set down and how waste leaves the building all affect the plan. Dhaka Cleaners settles these points with you before the day, so the team can start promptly, work steadily and finish without surprises for you, your neighbours or your staff.
Move-in cleaning for a flat usually covers every room, the kitchen, attached and common bathrooms, balconies, window grills and the main door. In rented apartments we pay special attention to kitchen cabinets, where grease and cockroach droppings are often left behind, and to bathroom fittings with hard-water scale.
Before the visit we confirm lift use and working hours with the building's security desk or management, and bring everything up in one trip where possible. If you would like the landing in front of your door cleaned too, just let us know.
A blend of older family houses and newer apartment buildings, with schools, coaching centres, clinics and small shops.
Roads are more regular than in much of Old Dhaka but still congested, with limited parking. Older houses may lack lifts, and some buildings ask for advance notice to the guard or owner.
The steps below are adjusted to your property and its condition, but the order rarely changes: understand the job, agree the scope, do the work, then review it together.
We check each room with you, note existing stains or damage and agree priorities.
Ceiling fans, light fittings, cornices, door tops and high shelves are dusted and wiped.
Cabinets inside and out, counters, wall tiles, sink and fittings are degreased and cleaned.
Tiles, grout, taps, showers, toilets, basins and mirrors are descaled and sanitised.
Wardrobes, doors, switchboards, window frames, glass and grills are cleaned room by room.
Floors and balconies are scrubbed and mopped, then we walk through the property with you.
While we clean, you can focus on packing, transport and getting utilities connected.
Pest control and water tank cleaning can be arranged around the same move-in date, subject to team availability.
Every cupboard, drawer and surface is clean before your belongings go in.
Cleaning an empty property reaches places that furniture will cover for years.
Equipment: We work with vacuum cleaners, extension poles for fans and high fittings, floor brushes or a scrubbing machine suited to the floor type, and microfibre cloths.
Starting from ৳ 5,000 per property (minimum)
For homes in Wari, move-in cleaning starts from ৳ 5,000 per property (minimum). The final price depends mainly on the number of rooms or the floor area and the current condition, and it is confirmed with you before the team is booked.
Whether you are in Wari itself or close by in Motijheel, Old Dhaka and Jatrabari, the booking process is the same: share the details, agree the scope and price, then choose a slot. We are always clear about when a team can realistically reach you; same-day service is subject to team availability and cannot be promised in advance.
We serve all of Wari. Same-day visits may be possible, subject to team availability; high-ceiling and floor-polishing jobs are best booked ahead.
Common questions about move-in cleaning for apartments and flats in Wari.
Yes. We bring ladders and extension poles for ceiling fans, cornices, high windows and cobwebs. Mention the ceiling height when booking so we send the right equipment and team size.
Usually, yes. Mosaic and terrazzo floors respond well to machine scrubbing and polishing, although deep cracks or chips will remain. We can test a small area first so you can see the result before the full job.
The price is agreed before work starts. Payment is usually made after the job is finished and you or your representative have checked the property.
Ideally a day or two before your furniture arrives, once the previous occupants have left and water and electricity are working. Dates around the start of the month can be busy, so booking early helps.
Where possible, yes. For regular or recurring work we try to keep the same team or supervisor on your job so they get to know your property, although this depends on staff availability and leave.
The price depends on the size of the job, its current condition, access and any extras you choose. Where the price estimator covers the service, it gives you a rough range in a minute. The final price is confirmed in a free quote before any work begins.
