Deposit questions for a tenant that moved out.

I have a tenant that moved out Feb 8th even though his lease was up at the end of the month. I received the keys the 8th. I want to do right by him and give him his deposit back as early as possible but for legal purposes do I have 30 days after the end of Feb?

He was really clean but obviously I have to make it ready to either rent or sell. Does everyone go half on cleaning fees? Also there was one issue, I guess there's something wrong with my dishwasher because the floor behind it rose up a bit so it'll have to be repaired. Would I be able to charge for this or a portion of it? He's been a good tenant and always paid on time but if he would've told me this was happening sooner I would've gotten it taken care of before it got as bad as it did. I'm leaning no on that one because it was not anything he did but was curious on some thoughts. Thank you!
