Lõpukoristus

Lõpukoristus is an Estonian term that translates to "final cleaning" or "end-of-lease cleaning." It refers to a thorough cleaning of a property that is being vacated, typically at the end of a rental agreement or when a property is being sold. The purpose of lõpukoristus is to ensure the property is left in a clean and presentable condition for the next occupants or the new owners.

This type of cleaning is often more intensive than regular household cleaning. It usually involves cleaning all rooms, including kitchens and bathrooms, to a high standard. Specific tasks often included in lõpukoristus are cleaning inside ovens, refrigerators, and washing machines, as well as degreasing kitchen surfaces, descaling bathrooms, and cleaning windows and sills. Floors are typically mopped or vacuumed, and walls may be spot-cleaned for marks. The aim is to leave the property in a state that meets or exceeds the terms of a rental contract or the expectations of a buyer.

In rental situations, lõpukoristus is often a contractual obligation for the tenant. Failure to perform an adequate lõpukoristus can result in deductions from the security deposit to cover the cost of professional cleaning. Many rental agreements specify the required standard of cleanliness. For property sales, a thorough lõpukoristus can enhance the property's appeal to potential buyers and contribute to a smoother transaction process. While some individuals perform lõpukoristus themselves, many opt to hire professional cleaning services to ensure the job is done thoroughly and efficiently.
