Cleaners for end of lease

How the professional vacate cleaning in Melbourne is done

Our end of lease cleaning service in Melbourne follows a structured, results-driven lease cleaning process designed to meet the highest real estate standards. We know what property managers look for during inspections, and we tailor every clean to ensure you meet your obligations and get your full bond back.

Preparation and arrival

On the day of service, our trained and fully equipped cleaners arrive on time, ready to work through a real estate agency-approved cleaning checklist. We inspect the property first to identify any high-traffic areas or surfaces needing special attention.

Starting with the kitchen – the heart of the home

We begin with a full kitchen deep clean. This includes removing built-up grease and grime from the oven, stovetop, range hood, and splashback, as well as wiping and disinfecting cupboards, drawers, benchtops, and other surfaces. Sinks and taps are thoroughly scrubbed and polished, and the floors are mopped to a shine. All kitchen appliances will be cleaned, but fridge cleaning on inside is done at additional cost. Special care is taken with high-use areas to ensure every trace of dirt is removed.

Detailed bathroom sanitisation

Next, we turn our attention to the bathrooms and laundry areas. Here, we descale and disinfect all surfaces – including the shower, shower screen, tiles, bathtub, toilet, vanity, sinks, and mirrors. Soap scum, hard water stains, and limescale are removed with precision to leave everything sparkling and hygienic.

Cleaning every room to inspection-ready standards

Once the wet areas are complete, our team moves through the rest of the home room by room. We dust and wipe down all surfaces, including skirting boards, doors, light switches, handles, and built-in storage. Interior windows, tracks, and sills are cleaned in detail. We lightly dust walls and blinds, polish fittings, and ensure floors are vacuumed or mopped depending on the surface type.

Final touches and quality check

Before leaving, our teams perform a final walk-through to double-check that nothing has been missed. If you’ve booked any add-ons like carpet steam cleaning or wall washing, we complete those as part of the process. This final step helps ensure the home meets the standard required for a full bond return.

This isn’t just a superficial tidy-up – it’s a full-property transformation that leaves every room looking spotless and inspection-ready. We bring professional-grade equipment and cleaning solutions to achieve a level of cleanliness that exceeds standard domestic cleaning.

This comprehensive process is ideal for tenants preparing to move out, landlords getting a property ready for new tenants, or anyone selling a home who wants to present it in its best possible light.

When to book our cleaning with a bond back guarantee in Melbourne

Booking professional move out cleaning in Melbourne isn’t just a smart choice – it’s essential if you want to pass your final inspection and get your full bond back. Property managers inspect rental homes with a fine-tooth comb, often expecting a level of cleanliness that’s difficult to achieve without experienced cleaners and specialised tools.

That’s where our bond back guarantee comes in. We recommend booking our end of lease cleaning service a few days before your final inspection to ensure everything is cleaned to the highest standard—on time and stress-free. Our expert cleaners for end of lease know exactly what real estate agents look for and won’t miss a spot.

This service is also ideal when moving into a new property and want a fresh, hygienic start with a deep clean from top to bottom.

Unlike hourly cleaning, our fixed-price vacate cleaning includes a detailed checklist and a satisfaction guarantee. You’ll know exactly what’s covered and won’t be left with unfinished tasks or extra fees. For peace of mind and your full bond return, always choose a professional, fixed-rate service.

Important: Please note that for the service to proceed smoothly, the property must have running water and electricity, be unfurnished, and free of personal belongings. If you’ve booked carpet steam cleaning, please ensure there’s available parking nearby, as our equipment is quite heavy. Also, if you’ve requested fridge or freezer cleaning (available at an extra cost), be sure to turn off the appliance at least 24 hours before the service. Finally, make arrangements for property access, whether it’s confirming who will meet us on-site or where the keys will be left.

Carpet steam cleaning, balcony cleaning and other extras can be added to your bond clean on request.
How much does end of lease cleaning cost in Melbourne?
End of lease cleaning in Melbourne typically starts from around $270 and can go up to $600 or more, depending on the size and condition of the property and whether you add services like carpet steam cleaning or exterior window cleaning. Smaller units sit at the lower end, while larger houses or heavily soiled properties cost more. For an accurate price for your bond clean, contact us for a personalised quote.
Do you offer a bond-back guarantee?
Yes, our end of lease cleaning service comes with a bond-back guarantee and free re-clean if needed. If your property manager or landlord is not satisfied with any area covered by the service you booked, let us know within 72 hours and we’ll return to address those items at no extra cost.
What happens if you miss areas or the agent is not happy with the clean?
If we miss an area that was included in your booked end of lease cleaning package, or if your agent flags something related to our work, we’ll organise a free re-clean of those specific areas. Just send us the inspection report or photos within 72 hours of the service so we can fix it quickly for you.
How long does a bond clean usually take?
Most bond cleans take between 3 and 8 hours, depending on the size and condition of the property and how many add-ons (such as carpet steam cleaning or balcony cleaning) you choose. Larger or heavily soiled homes may take longer, and we’ll give you an estimated time when you book your end of lease clean.
Do I need to be present during the end of lease cleaning?
No, you don’t need to be there while we clean. As long as we have access to the property (key pick-up, lockbox, or someone to let us in) and there is electricity and running water, our cleaners can complete the end of lease cleaning and let you know once it’s done.
Do you provide all the cleaning materials and equipment?
Yes. We bring everything needed for your end of lease cleaning in Melbourne – professional equipment, detergents and tools. All we require at the property is access to electricity and running water.
How do you clean carpets as part of a vacate clean?
For standard fabric carpets we use hot water extraction (steam cleaning), which gives the best results for most rental properties. We pre-vacuum, pre-spray, treat stains where possible and then steam clean using a specialist machine. You’ll receive a receipt for your real estate agent or property manager if carpet cleaning is part of your bond requirements.
Are walls included in your end of lease cleaning service?
Our standard bond cleaning service includes dusting all walls and removing cobwebs. Spot cleaning of marks on walls can be added at an extra cost and priced per wall or as a package based on the size of the property. Please note that heavy staining, nicotine and mould issues are treated as specialised services.
Is mould removal on walls or ceilings included?
No, mould removal is not part of the standard end of lease cleaning package. Mould treatment is a separate service and usually requires an inspection to quote accurately. If the mould is embedded in silicone (for example around bathroom tiles), it generally cannot be cleaned and the silicone may need to be replaced.
Do you clean light fittings and switches?
Yes. We dust all accessible light fittings and clean light switches as part of our standard end of lease clean. If you need removable light fittings washed or wiped more thoroughly, please remove them before the service so our cleaners can access them safely.
Do you clean windows from the outside?
Our standard end of lease cleaning service includes internal window cleaning – glass, frames, tracks and sills where accessible. Exterior window cleaning is not included by default, but we can arrange outside window cleaning at an additional cost, depending on access and safety.
Do you clean ovens, rangehoods and other kitchen appliances?
es. Oven and rangehood cleaning are included in a proper end of lease clean and we degrease the interior, racks, door and filters where accessible. Other appliances such as fridges, freezers and dishwashers can be added as extras, provided they are empty and defrosted before our cleaners arrive.
Do you provide end of lease cleaning for furnished properties?
Yes, we can clean both furnished and unfurnished rental properties. However, furnished homes are more time-consuming due to the need to work around furniture and personal belongings, and some hard-to-reach areas may not be accessible. For this reason, our standard bond-back guarantee does not apply to furnished properties, although we still aim for a very high standard of cleaning.
Can I book same-day or urgent end of lease cleaning in Melbourne?
In many cases, yes. We offer same-day and urgent vacate cleaning in Melbourne, subject to availability. Contact us as early as you can with your preferred date and time, and we’ll do our best to fit you in before your final inspection.
What are the end of lease cleaning rules in Victoria?
In Victoria, tenants must leave the property in a “reasonably clean” condition at the end of the lease, taking fair wear and tear into account. Professional end of lease cleaning is not always mandatory, but if it’s specified in your lease agreement, or if the property was professionally cleaned before you moved in, your agent may expect a professional bond clean. Always check your lease and condition report so you know exactly what’s required.
Why hire professional end of lease cleaners in Melbourne?
Professional end of lease cleaners know exactly what real estate agents and property managers look for at final inspection. They follow detailed checklists, use professional-grade equipment and save you hours of hard work, which greatly improves your chances of getting your full bond back.
