Frequently asked questions about our cleaning services.
Bond cleaning is a full clean of a residential property at the end of a tenancy. It is also referred to as end-of-lease cleaning. It is required by real estate agents and property managers as a condition for the return of bond money. It is the responsibility of you, the tenant, to ensure the house is looking exactly as it did the day you moved in. Tenants are usually advised to hire a professional cleaning business.
Bond cleaning is a process in which the property is completely cleaned and attention is given to just about every nook and cranny. Cleaning takes approximately 3 to 7 hours, depending on the size and condition of the property. Every property has unique requirements.
The cost will be dependent on the size, age and level of cleanliness of the property, which all affect the amount of time it takes to complete the cleaning. An accurate quote can only be provided after the inspection of the property, and once the price is agreed upon then no additional costs are charged.
Bond Cleaning covers almost every corner of your property. It commonly includes bedrooms, bathrooms, toilets, kitchen, laundry, lounge room, internal windows and window tracks, flooring, cobwebs, and many other areas in the house. For more information, you can refer to the list of inclusions and optional extras under Bond Cleaning in the Services list.

A pre-service inspection is free of charge if you proceed with the booking and engage our services; however, as we have invested time and resources into your enquiry up to the point of a pre-service inspection (discussed your needs and requirements, given an estimate, forwarded you an agreement and payment information, allocated a time slot etc), we do charge a fee of $50 if you decide not to go ahead with the service following the inspection.
