Ring the deposit protection schemes and see if you're covered.
If not don't even bother to clean up.

Not on me, but I know where it is at home, I'll check that when I get in
Cheers, I appreciate the help.

the TDS is there to stop tenants being ripped off
he will have to justify deductions.

he could issue court proceedings for the balance, i used to get tenants bringing claims for stupid amounts like £60 of carpet cleaning "because of the principle". but: (i) he will only do this if he is unreasonable and moronic; and (ii) it would be nothing to panic about, so don't be scared of the threat. unless you've trashed the place and set fire to it, clearly.

Best advice is to basically chill out.
The law takes ages and you've got plenty of rights, the courts aren't impressed with shouty landlords just the facts.
