Property experts are reminding those planning to sell a house about the need to ensure that a virally deep clean of the property has taken place to guarantee the sale is completed.
The Government gave the green light for house moves to restart last month and there has been a common safety concern from buyers who are unwilling to move into a property until they know that it has been properly cleaned.
The concerns have led to a spike in demand for deep-cleaning services from house-sellers.
Experts are now warning that with Covid-19 likely to be around for the foreseeable future that if you are looking for a speedy sale that you ensure regular deep cleans are being completed.
It is believed that it could become part of the buying and selling chain for the remainder of the year.
Many homeowners change the locks as a matter of security when they are given the keys to a property and carrying out a deep clean is being considered a similar safety precaution.
During a viral deep clean, a technician in protective gear uses a spray canister to apply the non-toxic virucidal solution, killing 99.999% of germs.
Rune Sovndahl, the co-founder of cleaning firm Fantastic Services, said: “Now more than ever, people are treating their home as their protective bubble and this is even more true when people move into a new home that had a different family living in it only days before.
“Our customers want to know we can get to them quickly and carry out the anti-viral deep clean professionally so that sellers can reassure buyers that the property is safe to move into.
