Moving out of a rental in Matlock 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 for end of lease cleaning Matlock, using what we state on our site.
Covering Matlock
Matlock is one of the 386 Melbourne metro suburbs we service. We are based in Bundoora and travel to you, so you can book by phone on 0401 398 705 or through the free quote form.
Most people reading this are moving from one suburb to another, often with a handover date at one end and a move-in date at the other. That leaves very little room for a cleaning job that runs over. This page is written with that squeeze in mind: get the details settled early, know what is covered, and keep the paperwork in one place.
Whether you are leaving an apartment or a house, the process is the same. The size of the property and its condition are what change the quote.
From quote to booking
Here is how the process works from first contact to the finished clean:
- Call 0401 398 705. Quotes over the phone usually take under five minutes.
- Or send the quote form. We reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price based on what you have told us about the property.
- You choose 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, and we put it in writing.
If your keys are due back soon, start at step one as early as you can. A short call is the quickest way to find out what the diary looks like.
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. Call 0401 398 705 for a price that fits your place.
If you are comparing end of lease cleaning prices in Matlock, put the quotes side by side and check what each one includes. A low figure can leave out the oven, the wardrobes or the windows. Ask whether the standard is written down and whether a re-clean is promised in writing.
What is included
Our bond cleaning is done to the REIV exit condition standard. The clean 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
Agents and landlords use different words for the same job: vacate cleaning, exit cleaning, move out cleaning, end of tenancy cleaning. They all mean getting the property back to the condition described in your entry report, allowing for fair wear and tear. If you want to check a particular item against this list, ask when you call.
Deciding what to bundle
Two add-ons are worth thinking about before you book.
Carpet steam cleaning. This 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. If your lease asks for professionally cleaned carpets, end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning in Matlock keeps it to one booking and one set of dates. That helps when you are also coordinating a removalist.
Window cleaning. This is available from $8 per window. The main clean already covers windows, tracks, sills and flyscreens, so ask on the call how window cleaning fits with your quote. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning in Matlock, the oven is part of the standard clean and windows can be priced for your property.
Count your rooms and windows before you call. It makes the quote quicker.
Picking a time
Dates depend on the diary. We do not promise same day or last minute availability, and we do not promise weekend slots. If you want same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning in Matlock, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can and ask what is open.
When you are moving between suburbs, think about the order of the day:
- Cleaners need the property empty, or close to it, so move your furniture and boxes out first.
- Allow time for carpets to dry if you book steam cleaning.
- Leave a gap before the inspection so a re-clean, if needed, is not squeezed in on the final day.
Before the cleaner arrives
A little preparation helps the clean go smoothly.
- Remove all personal belongings, including food from the fridge and pantry.
- Take down rubbish and anything left in the garage.
- Make sure power and water are on.
- Arrange access if you will not be there.
- Tell us about problem areas such as a baked-on oven, heavy mould in a bathroom, or pet damage.
Cleaning does not cover repairs. Wall marks, holes or damaged fittings are a separate matter between you and the property manager, so sort those out before inspection day.
After the clean
Walk through the property if you can, ideally with your entry condition report in hand. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That 7-day re-clean guarantee is in writing.
Please note the guarantee is for the re-clean. We do not guarantee a particular bond outcome, because the final decision belongs to the agent or landlord and depends on factors beyond cleaning. If you see “bond back guarantee end of lease cleaning” advertised in Matlock or elsewhere, ask what is actually promised and whether it is in writing.
If the agent lists issues, send them to us promptly with the date of the inspection so we can arrange the return visit.

What affects the price
The final quote depends on property size and condition. These are the main factors:
- Size. Apartment end of lease cleaning in Matlock usually involves fewer rooms than house end of lease cleaning, which can include a garage, a laundry and extra living areas.
- Condition. A well-kept place takes less time than one with built-up grease, limescale or mould.
- Carpets. Steam cleaning is priced per room from $35.
- Windows. Window cleaning is priced from $8 per window.
- Extras. Pet odour treatment is available on request.
People often search for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning in Matlock. We do not claim either label. A better test is to compare what each quote includes, whether a written re-clean guarantee is offered, and the price per room for carpets.

Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself saves money, but it takes time you may not have in the middle of a move. Ovens, range hoods, window tracks and descaling in the bathroom and laundry are the jobs that take longest and are most often marked down at inspection.
Doing it yourself can make sense if the property is small, you are confident with the checklist and you have a day to spare. Booking makes more sense when you are juggling two addresses, have carpets to deal with, or want the 7-day re-clean guarantee in writing as a safety net.
A checklist to hand us
Have these details ready when you call or fill in the form, and the quote will be faster and firmer:
- Property type: apartment or house
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Number of rooms with carpet
- Approximate number of windows
- Whether there is a garage, oven or dishwasher to clean
- Any pets, and any stains or odours
- Your handover date and inspection date
- Anything in your lease or agent’s list that is specific to the property
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your entry condition report, your agent’s cleaning requirements, the quote we send you and the written guarantee together in one folder. Take dated photos once the clean is finished. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue, this makes it easy to show what was done and to book the free return visit within the 7 days.
