Moving out of a rental in Fernshaw (postcode 3777) 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 answers each of them using what we state on our site. It is written for tenants arranging end of lease cleaning Fernshaw properties need, with a particular focus on pets and carpets, because that is where many exit inspections are decided.
Covering Fernshaw
Fernshaw is one of the 386 Melbourne metro suburbs we service, and we list it under our Yarra Valley region. We are based in Bundoora, and you can book by phone or through the quote form. It is a small bushland locality on the Black Spur side of Healesville, so most rentals are standalone houses rather than apartment blocks. The same checklist applies whether you need apartment end of lease cleaning or house end of lease cleaning Fernshaw side, but a house usually means more rooms, more windows and often a garage.
Because Fernshaw sits on the outer edge of our area, please give your full address when you call so we can confirm we can get to you. If the property is surrounded by bush, expect leaf litter, dust and cobwebs around doors, window tracks and the garage. These are all things an agent will look at.
From quote to booking
Getting an end of lease cleaning quote is meant to be quick. The steps are:
- Call 0401 398 705. Quotes over the phone usually take under five minutes.
- Or send the free quote form. We reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price once we know the size and condition of the property.
- You book a date. Bookings are usually made within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- After the clean, the 7-day re-clean guarantee applies, and we put it in writing.
What the price starts from
Our Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280. That is a starting point, not a flat rate for every property. Please call for a price on your address.
If you are comparing end of lease cleaning prices Fernshaw tenants will find online, or searching for cheap end of lease cleaning, the headline number alone will not tell you much. Compare what is included, whether the guarantee is in writing, and the price per room for carpets. A low figure that leaves out the oven or the window tracks can cost more once you add extras.
What is included
Our bond cleaning Fernshaw tenants book is done to the REIV exit condition standard. It covers:
- Inside cupboards, drawers and wardrobes
- Oven, cooktop and range hood
- Dishwasher
- Bathroom and laundry descaling
- Windows, tracks, sills and flyscreens
- Garage sweep and cobweb removal
This is the scope behind what people call vacate cleaning, exit cleaning or end of tenancy cleaning. The names differ, but the agent is checking the same things against the entry condition report.
Deciding what to bundle
Carpet is the most common add-on, and it matters most if you have kept pets. Our carpet steam cleaning uses truck-mounted hot water extraction and starts 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. Results on older or set-in stains depend on the stain, so point them out when you call.
Pet hair, scratch marks and odour are things an agent often notices first when they walk in. If you want end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning Fernshaw, ask for the carpets to be quoted together with the clean so you see one total. Truck-mounted equipment needs vehicle access, so mention any steep driveway or tight access when you book.
Window cleaning is from $8 per window. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning Fernshaw, the oven is part of the standard clean, and the window tracks, sills and flyscreens are too. Ask us when you get your quote what the standard clean covers on the glass and what the per-window service adds.
Picking a time
Most tenants have a hard deadline: keys back on a set date, often with a final inspection the same day. Availability depends on the diary, and we do not promise a slot we have not confirmed. If you are hoping for same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning Fernshaw, the answer depends on what is booked at the time. The best step is to call 0401 398 705 as early as you can, ideally as soon as you know your move-out date.
Try to leave a gap between the clean and your inspection. That gives the carpets time to dry and leaves room to fix anything that comes up.
Before the cleaner arrives
Move-out cleaning is much easier on an empty property. Before the clean:
- Remove all furniture, boxes and rubbish, including from the garage and any sheds.
- Make sure power and water are still connected.
- Arrange access, such as keys or a lockbox, if you will not be there.
- Take pets elsewhere for the day, along with their bedding, bowls and toys.
- Note any stains, odours or marks on the carpet and tell us in advance.
After the clean
Do a walk-through with your entry condition report in hand. Look at the oven, the bathroom, the window tracks and the carpets in good light. Avoid walking on the carpet in outdoor shoes, and keep pets off it until it is fully dry.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we come back and fix it free of charge. That 7-day re-clean guarantee is in writing. It is not a promise about your bond. A bond back guarantee end of lease cleaning Fernshaw tenants may see advertised is not something we offer, because the decision belongs to the agent and landlord. What we guarantee is the re-clean.
About us
We are a Bundoora-based cleaning business servicing Melbourne metro suburbs. Our team are professional bond cleaners who work to the REIV exit condition standard. We handle the clean, the carpets and the windows, so you can deal with one business instead of three. For a price, call 0401 398 705.
What affects the price
The final quote depends on the size and condition of the property. The main factors are:
- The number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Whether it is an apartment or a house, and whether there is a garage
- How much grease is built up on the oven, cooktop and range hood
- The number of carpeted rooms, at $35 per room
- The number of windows, if you add window cleaning at $8 per window
- Pet odour or stain treatment on the carpets
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Plenty of tenants clean themselves, and for a small, tidy unit that can work. The trouble usually comes from the oven, the descaling and the carpets. Steam cleaning with truck-mounted hot water extraction is a different process from a hired machine, and pet odour is difficult to deal with without the right equipment.
When you look at end of lease cleaners, do not rely on a label like the best end of lease cleaning. Ask what is included, whether the guarantee is in writing, and what each carpet room costs. Then weigh that against your own time and your inspection date.
A checklist to hand us
Have these details ready when you call or fill in the form, and your quote will be faster and more accurate:
- The full address, including whether it is an apartment or a house
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Number of carpeted rooms
- Whether you had pets, and which rooms they used
- Approximate number of windows
- Your move-out and inspection dates
- Any cleaning checklist from your agent
Keeping your paperwork
Keep the quote, the invoice and the written 7-day guarantee together. Take dated photos of the finished property, including carpets, oven and bathrooms, before you hand back the keys. If the agent raises an issue, contact us within the 7 days with their message so we can arrange the re-clean.
