Moving out of a rental in Maryknoll (postcode 3812) 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. If you are comparing options for end of lease cleaning Maryknoll, the sections below set out the starting price, the inclusions and the written guarantee so you can check them against any other quote.
Covering Maryknoll
Maryknoll is one of the 386 Melbourne metro suburbs we service. It sits in Melbourne’s outer south-east, close to Pakenham and Nar Nar Goon. We are based in Bundoora, so bookings are handled by phone on 0401 398 705 or through our free quote form.
Most rentals around Maryknoll are detached houses rather than apartments. House end of lease cleaning usually means more rooms, more windows and often a garage, so the scope is worth describing carefully when you ask for a price. If you are in a unit or apartment, apartment end of lease cleaning follows the same checklist, usually with fewer windows and no garage.
From quote to booking
The process is short, and you can see the price before you commit.
- 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 for the job, based on what you have told us about the property.
- You book a date. Booking is usually within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- After the clean, the 7-day re-clean guarantee applies in writing.
An end of lease cleaning quote is only as accurate as the details behind it, so the checklist further down this page is worth reading before you call.
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 home. Please call for a price on your specific property.
People often search for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning. We do not use those labels, because they do not help you compare. A more useful comparison covers:
- what is actually included (ovens, inside cupboards, window tracks and so on)
- whether the guarantee is in writing and how long it lasts
- the price per room if carpets are added
- whether the quote is firm or an estimate
When you look at end of lease cleaning prices from different providers, line those four points up side by side.
What is included
Our bond cleaning 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
Whether you call it vacate cleaning, exit cleaning, move out cleaning or end of tenancy cleaning, the job is the same: the property returned in the condition the exit standard expects.
Older homes tend to have details that newer builds do not, and they are where cleaning is most often questioned. Think of timber window frames with deep sills, painted or aged window tracks, original tiled bathrooms with grout that has darkened over time, and fixed light fittings with years of dust. Mention any of these when you ask for a quote so the scope matches the property.
Deciding what to bundle
Many tenants add carpets and windows to the main clean. Check your lease and your agent’s instructions to see what is expected.
Carpets. Carpet steam cleaning is 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. End of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning keeps everything on one booking.
Windows. Window cleaning is from $8 per window. For end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, the oven is already part of the standard clean. Ask us on the call how the window service fits with the tracks, sills and flyscreens already included.
Houses with many windows add up quickly at a per-window rate, so count them before you call.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary, and we do not promise a slot until we have checked it. That applies to same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning and weekend end of lease cleaning. We cannot promise any of them in advance.
If your vacate date is fixed, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can. The sooner we know your dates, the more options there are. Cleaning is normally best placed after your furniture is out and before the final inspection, so keep that window in mind when you set your moving date.
Before the cleaner arrives
A little preparation makes the clean more effective:
- Remove all furniture, boxes and personal items, including from the garage and wardrobes.
- Leave power and water connected so appliances can be checked and cleaned properly.
- Arrange access, such as keys or a lockbox, and tell us about any alarms.
- Move pets elsewhere on the day.
- Point out anything fragile or original in an older home, such as leadlight panes, old fittings or delicate paintwork.
Do not leave rubbish or unwanted items behind. Cleaning is not removal, and leftover belongings can complicate the inspection.
After the clean
Walk through the property once the clean is finished and take dated photos of each room, the oven, the bathrooms and the windows. If you also booked carpets, allow a few hours for them to dry before walking on them or moving anything back in.
Our guarantee is a 7-day re-clean, in writing. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. This is not a bond back guarantee, and no cleaner can honestly promise a bond outcome, because the decision rests with the agent and landlord. What we do guarantee is that we will come back and correct cleaning problems.

If you are looking for professional bond cleaners or end of lease cleaners, the details on this page are what we stand behind. Call 0401 398 705 with questions.
What affects the price
The final quote depends on property size and condition. The main factors are:
- the number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- how much grease is built up in the oven, cooktop and range hood
- the number of windows and the state of the tracks and flyscreens
- whether there is a garage to sweep
- the number of carpeted rooms, and any stains or pet odour
- older-home features that take extra time, such as heavy limescale or detailed timber frames
A tidy, lightly used unit and a large family house with a heavily used kitchen will not cost the same, even though both start from the same base price.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Doing the clean yourself can work if you have time, the right products and a clear idea of the standard. The hard parts are usually the oven, descaling bathrooms, tracks and sills, and carpets, because they take time and the right equipment. Moving out already uses up the days you would need.
Booking makes sense when you are short on time, the property is large, or you want a written guarantee behind the result. Either way, read your agent’s cleaning list first and work to it.
A checklist to hand us
Have these details ready when you call or fill in the free quote form:
- the property address and whether it is a house or an apartment
- bedrooms, bathrooms and whether there is a garage
- your vacate date and final inspection date, if you have one
- how many rooms have carpet, and any stains or pet odours
- roughly how many windows there are
- the age of the property and any older features you want us to know about
- your agent’s cleaning checklist, if they gave you one
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your quote, booking confirmation, written guarantee and any receipts together with your photos and the exit condition report. If the agent raises a cleaning issue, send it to us promptly so the re-clean can be arranged within the 7-day guarantee period.
