Finchley Church End is a conservation area of Edwardian parades with flats above the shops, ringed by family houses and offices turned into flats. Complete After Builders cleans all three after the works; a 2-bed flat after a refurbishment usually takes 2 cleaners for 4 hours, £272 all in.

Finchley in numbers

Flats above the Edwardian parades of Church End

Barnet describes Church End as one of Finchley's three shopping centres, with Edwardian parades where Regents Park Road meets Hendon Lane. The conservation area was designated in 1979, and an Article 4(2) direction made in 2011 means many changes to the front of a building need planning permission. Within 800 metres of N3 3RJ there are 29 listed buildings, three of them Grade II*: the Manor House, La Délivrance and the parish church of St Mary.

For a refurbishment upstairs from a shop, that means the original sash windows usually stay. The crew cleans the glass, the frames, the sash boxes and the sills inside, takes paint flecks off where they lift and leaves the cords and weights alone. Access is the slow part: one narrow staircase, a shared street door and often a business trading below. The crew cleans the stairwell last, so the dust walked down from the flat goes with it.

Further out the streets are houses: 23.9% of households in Finchley Church End ward live in semis and 11.6% in detached houses, and a 4-bed house after a refurbishment usually takes 3 cleaners for 4 hours: £392 all in.

Offices on Ballards Lane and Arcadia Avenue turned into flats

Several of Finchley's newer homes are converted offices. In July 2016 Barnet gave prior approval for 88 flats in Dove House, Gadd House and Cooper House on Arcadia Avenue, N3 2JU, and for 42 in Central House, 1 Ballards Lane. Those blocks finish like new builds: dozens of identical flats, a lift, a managing agent and a car park with its own permit rules.

A handover clean there is lighter on plaster and heavier on detail. The crew peels labels off the glazing, cleans window tracks full of grit, wipes inside every kitchen unit and clears the dust from extractor grilles, sockets and light fittings. A 1-bed flat of that kind usually takes 2 cleaners for 3 hours: £212 all in. Window cleaning after the builders covers the glass in more detail.

Getting a Finchley flat ready to let

Renting is common in Church End. At the 2021 Census 58.5% of households in Finchley Church End ward lived in flats (16.4% of all households in flats carved out of houses), and 37.4% rented privately against 32.7% across Barnet. For a landlord who redecorates between tenants, the builders clean is the last job before photos and viewings.

Barnet licenses shared homes borough-wide: a house or flat shared by three or more people from two or more households needs an additional HMO licence, so a landlord converting a family house for sharers needs both the paperwork and the clean done before move-in. If the let is furnished, sofas and mattresses that sat in a dusty room can be cleaned on the same visit (sofas and mattresses after the works): a two-seat sofa is £57 and a mattress £35. More on permits and parking for Barnet as a whole is on the borough page, and our prices list every size of home.

How much is a builders clean for a flat in Finchley?

A 1-bed after decorating usually takes 2 cleaners for 3 hours, £212 all in, and a 2-bed after a refurbishment 2 cleaners for 4 hours, £272. The rate behind both is £30 per cleaner-hour plus £32 for equipment and detergents.

Can you clean a flat above a shop on Regents Park Road?

Yes. Tell the office about the street door, the stairs and when the shop below opens, and say where the crew can park or load.

Do you take the sashes out to clean them?

No. The crew cleans the glass, frames, sills and sash boxes from inside without removing or re-cording the sashes. Outside glass is extra and only where it can be reached safely from inside.

Which parts of Finchley do you cover?

All of N3 and the streets around it, including Church End, West Finchley and Finchley Garden Village, plus builders cleans in East Finchley and Golders Green (NW11).
