Shared Spaces, Kept on a Rota Landlords Can Point To

Halls, stairwells and bin stores in shared buildings need someone accountable for them, not an informal arrangement between tenants. Seawolf runs communal and HMO cleaning on a fixed schedule landlords and managing agents can reference.

What's included

  • ✓Hallways, stairwells and shared landings
  • ✓Communal kitchens where present in HMOs
  • ✓Bin storage areas and general waste tidiness
  • ✓Entrance doors, door handles and light switches
  • ✓Communal windows and glass where accessible

Who this is for

HMO landlords, managing agents and freeholders responsible for shared parts of a building, where a documented cleaning schedule supports licence conditions and simply keeps a shared space usable.

What determines your price

Pricing depends on the number of shared areas, floors involved, and visit frequency. A single stairwell and hallway is a different job to a full HMO with a shared kitchen, priced accordingly after a walkthrough.

FAQs

Questions About Shared Spaces, Kept on a Rota Landlords Can Point To

Does this help with HMO licence conditions?

A documented, regular cleaning schedule for common parts is something many licensing authorities look for. Every visit is logged in your client portal with a date and time, which you can pull up as evidence if a licensing authority asks, though you should confirm the specific requirements with your local authority.

Do you clean individual tenant rooms?

No, this service covers shared and communal areas only. Individual rooms remain the tenant’s responsibility unless otherwise agreed.

How often are common areas cleaned?

Frequency is agreed on the walkthrough, weekly is common for busier HMOs, with less frequent visits for quieter shared buildings.
