If your property in Turkey is newly
constructed, we recommend a deep clean prior to furniture being delivered. In
Turkey properties that are newly built can be very dusty and not as clean as
you would like, as they have been exposed to the elements and had numerous workmen
in and out. Our deep clean leaves your new property dust free and sparkling
for your first arrival. A deep clean involves cleaning every possible area of
your property including windows, internal and external doors, sills, skirting
and kitchen units inside and out etc.
