Moving out of a rental in Brooklyn (postcode 3012) comes down to a few practical questions: what does the clean cost, what does it cover, how quickly can it be booked, and what happens if the agent is not satisfied? This page on end of lease cleaning Brooklyn answers each of them using what we state on our site.
Covering Brooklyn
Brooklyn is one of the 386 Melbourne metro suburbs we service, in the city’s western region. We are based in Bundoora, and we travel to Brooklyn and to neighbouring areas such as Altona North and Tottenham.
Rentals in this part of Melbourne are a mix of houses, townhouses, units and apartments, so we do not assume what you are moving out of. Whether you need house end of lease cleaning in Brooklyn or apartment end of lease cleaning in Brooklyn, the clean follows the same standard. Apartments simply raise a few extra access questions, which we cover further down.
You can book by phone on 0401 398 705 or through the free quote form.
From quote to booking
The process is short, and you will know the price before you commit:
- Call 0401 398 705. Quotes by phone usually take under five minutes.
- Or send the free quote form. We reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price for your property, so there is nothing vague to argue about later.
- You book a date. Bookings are usually made within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- You receive our 7-day re-clean guarantee in writing.
If you are comparing an end of lease cleaning quote from us with others, ask each business to put the inclusions and the guarantee in writing as well.
What the price starts from
Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280. That is a starting point, not a flat rate for every property. Call 0401 398 705 for a price based on your place.
People often search for end of lease cleaning prices in Brooklyn and expect one number. A studio apartment and a four-bedroom house with a pool of dust in the garage are different jobs, so the final quote depends on property size and condition. We do not publish a price table beyond the figures on this page.
What is included
Our bond cleaning is done to the REIV exit condition standard, which is the benchmark many agents and property managers refer to at the final inspection. The clean covers:
- Inside cupboards, drawers and wardrobes
- Oven
- Cooktop
- Range hood
- Dishwasher
- Bathroom and laundry descaling
- Windows, tracks, sills and flyscreens
- Garage sweep and cobweb removal
This is the kind of list that exit cleaning and vacate cleaning inspections tend to focus on. Ovens, tracks and shower screens are the places where a rushed clean is usually caught out.
Deciding what to bundle
Many agents expect carpets to be professionally cleaned as well, so it is worth checking your lease and your agent’s cleaning list. If you want end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning in Brooklyn, we offer truck-mounted hot water extraction from $35 per room. It includes spot and stain treatment, and pet odour treatment is available. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
For extra window work, window cleaning is from $8 per window. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning in Brooklyn, note that the oven and the windows, tracks, sills and flyscreens are already part of the standard clean. The separate window price is for when you want windows handled on their own or as additional work.
When you call, tell us which of these you want and we will fold them into one firm quote.
Picking a time
Dates depend on our diary. We cannot promise same day end of lease cleaning or last minute end of lease cleaning in Brooklyn, and we do not promise weekend slots either. Whether a weekend end of lease cleaning booking is possible depends on what is already booked.
If your handover date is close, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can and ask what the diary looks like. The earlier you ask, the more options you usually have, and you will get a straight answer rather than a promise we cannot keep.
Try to book the clean for after your furniture is out and before the final inspection, so the agent sees the property at its best. If you are in an apartment, line the clean up with your building’s lift booking too.
Before the cleaner arrives
A little preparation makes the job go smoothly, particularly in apartment buildings:
- Remove your belongings. Cleaning cupboards, wardrobes and floors is much easier in an empty property.
- Check building access. Many apartment buildings use key fobs, intercoms or locked car parks. Ask your building manager or owners corporation whether visitors need to be registered.
- Ask about the lift. Some buildings require the lift to be booked for moving or for trades. Check the rules and tell us what applies.
- Confirm parking. Ask where a cleaning vehicle can legally park, whether that is a visitor bay or a loading area.
- Keep utilities on. Power and water need to be connected on the day.
- Flag problem areas. Mention mould, heavy oven build-up, pet damage or stained carpet when you call.
After the clean
Walk through the property once the clean is finished and compare it with your agent’s cleaning list. Then hand the keys back as arranged.
Our guarantee is the 7-day re-clean, given in writing. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. People sometimes search for a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning in Brooklyn. We do not guarantee that your bond will be returned, because that decision belongs to the landlord, the agent and, if there is a dispute, the tenancy authority. What we do guarantee is that we will return and fix cleaning issues that are raised in the 7-day window.
If carpets have been steam cleaned, keep foot traffic light for the first few hours until they are dry.
About us
Australia Bond Cleaning is a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business servicing metro suburbs, including Brooklyn. We focus on bond and end of lease cleaning, carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning. If you are looking for professional bond cleaners, we encourage you to judge us on what we state: the inclusions listed above, the REIV exit condition standard, the written guarantee and the published starting prices.
What affects the price
Whatever you call it, whether move out cleaning, end of tenancy cleaning or bond cleaning, the quote is built on the same factors:
- The size of the property and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- The overall condition, including oven grease, soap scum and limescale
- Whether it is an apartment, unit, townhouse or house, and whether there is a garage
- Carpet steam cleaning, charged per room, and any pet odour or stain treatment
- Window numbers, if you add separate window cleaning
People often ask for cheap end of lease cleaning in Brooklyn, or look for the best end of lease cleaning in Brooklyn. Neither phrase tells you much on its own. When you compare end of lease cleaners, line up the inclusions (oven, tracks, inside cupboards, garage), whether a re-clean guarantee is in writing and for how long, and the price per room for carpets. A low headline price that leaves out the oven or carpets can cost more in the end.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself can work if you have the time, the right products and an empty property. The difficult parts are the oven, the range hood, the descaling and the window tracks, which take longer than most people expect. Hiring a carpet steam cleaner for a weekend is a further cost and chore.
Booking makes sense when you are juggling a move, work and a handover date, or when the property is large or in poor condition. The deciding factor is often the written guarantee. If you clean it yourself and the agent finds problems, you are back on site with a mop. If you book us and the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge.
A checklist to hand us
Have these details ready when you call or fill in the free quote form, and we can give you a firm price faster:
- Address, and whether it is an apartment, unit, townhouse or house
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- How many rooms have carpet, and whether there are pet odours or stains
- Roughly how many windows you have, if you want them quoted separately
- The condition of the oven and bathrooms
- Whether there is a garage
- Your handover or inspection date
- Building access details: fobs, intercom, lift booking and parking
- Your agent’s cleaning list, if you have one
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your records together until the bond is settled. That means your lease, the entry condition report, your agent’s cleaning requirements, our written quote and the 7-day re-clean guarantee. Take dated photos of each room after the clean. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue, send us the details quickly and call 0401 398 705 so we can arrange to return within the 7-day window.
