We work empty homes daily
An empty home is a different job from a lived-in one, it exposes everything and lets us reach it.
Move-In and Move-Out Cleaning in Al Sarawat, Jeddah
Al Sarawat is an industrial district in south Jeddah, with warehouses and workshops alongside scattered homes. Cleaning here tackles deep diesel soot and machine grease, not ordinary dust. Every surface carries years of heavy use, and each requires a different approach to remove what has settled and hardened on it.

What changes about move-in and move-out cleaning in Al Sarawat
Floors are plain cement or old ceramic tile, darkened by accumulated diesel soot that settles from the air. Transparent curtains turn black within weeks of being hung, no matter how often they are wiped. For the method itself, see how we approach move-in and move-out cleaning.
-
The first reason
Deep diesel soot on every surface
Heavy truck smoke leaves an oily black layer on windows, walls and floors. Removing it demands specialist products and time. One clean does not finish it, the process is graduated removal over several stages.
-
The second reason
Machine grease locked into warehouse floors
Warehouses accumulate machine oil and grease on cement floors, where it soaks in and hardens. Water and ordinary soap cannot lift it, specialist solvents and scrubbing are needed.
-
The third reason
Trapped smell of fuel and oil
The smell clings to warehouse walls and nearby homes. Strong ventilation and thorough cleaning reduce it, but if workshops resume work nearby the smell will return, as it comes from outside.
What move-in and move-out cleaning covers in Al Sarawat
Positioned between the Industrial City to the north and the southern corniche to the west, close to Al Laith Road, smoke and fumes from trucks and machinery penetrate every residential space.
-
Cabinets inside and out
Cabinets in homes may hold fuel smell and grease. We clean inside and out using products that neutralise strong odours trapped in wood and materials.
-
The whole kitchen
The kitchen needs grease removed from every gap, handles and shelves. Older stoves may have soot layers from cooking added to diesel soot from outside.
-
Bathrooms and scale removal
Bathrooms need deep cleaning of grease and soot, drains may hold sediment that is a mix of oil and water that needs dissolving.
-
Floors and corners
Cement floors need hard scrubbing with specialist products. Old ceramic tile may need hot water and dilute acid to lift the combination of diesel and kitchen grease.
-
Windows and tracks
Windows and tracks are black with soot. We clean carefully to remove the oily layer without damaging glass or frames that can be brittle.
-
Doors, switches and light fittings
Doors, switches and fittings get repeated wiping with strong products followed by drying, as soot and grease cling readily to these surfaces.
Not included

How an empty home is actually cleaned
-
1
Walk the empty property first
We go room to room, note the condition, and agree what's dirt to clean versus damage to report.
-
2
Top-down dry work
Ceiling corners, vents, light fixtures, tops of cabinets and doors, dusted before any water touches a surface, so we're not turning that dust into streaks lower down.
-
3
Cabinets and wardrobes, inside and out
Empty is the moment.
-
4
Kitchen, with the appliance gaps opened
Degrease the counters and fronts, then clean the walls and floor where the stove and fridge stood.
-
5
Bathrooms descaled
Scale on glass and taps and the grout between tiles is broken down, not just wiped over.
-
6
Floors, then a walkthrough with you
Floors come last, after the dust above has settled and been cleared.

The character of Al Sarawat
Industrial area: workshops, warehouses and loading yards
An industrial zone means pollution is not temporary but continuous. Cleaning here removes what is present now, but the industrial environment ensures some will return as long as workshops continue operating nearby.
Questions about move-in and move-out cleaning in Al Sarawat
The cement floor is very black with fuel and oil. Can it actually be cleaned properly?
Yes. We use specialist products to dissolve grease and oil, then scrub hard and rinse repeatedly. The result is not white but deeply clean and ready for use.
The warehouse is very large with high shelving. How long does a clean take?
Size of the warehouse determines time. We inspect first to gauge the area and its condition, then give you a completion date rather than a promise of specific hours.
The house sits next to a car workshop. Will oil and grease return immediately?
Yes, the risk of grease returning is high while the workshop is active. Our clean removes what is there now, but proximity to the workshop means reaccumulation will happen.
Curtains are black with soot. Will your clean remove this or do I wash them separately?
Soot requires deep hot water washing. Our clean removes surface dirt, we recommend washing curtains separately before the space is first occupied.
I am renting the shop and the landlord wants it spotless. Will your clean pass inspection?
We clean to high standards and provide you with photographic evidence. If the landlord requires additional checks, we return to any spots that need work.
The warehouse still has heavy machinery that has not been removed. Can you clean around it?
We clean around equipment as best we can. Spaces underneath heavy machinery need the equipment moved first if you want complete coverage underneath.
Do you clean inside the cabinets and wardrobes?
Yes, when they're empty, that's the whole point of timing this clean around an empty home. Shelves, inside faces and doors are all wiped. If they're still full, we can only do the outsides.
How is this different from a regular deep clean?
A deep clean is for a home you're living in; this is built around an empty property and a handover.
How much does move-in and move-out cleaning in Al Sarawat cost?
It is set after the inspection, because it follows the size of the job, the materials involved and their condition. Send photos on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Sarawat.
