Moving out of a rental in Mount Burnett (postcode 3781) 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 Mount Burnett, using what we state on our site. It is also written around the move-out week itself, so you can see where the clean fits between packing, carpets and the final inspection.
Covering Mount Burnett
Mount Burnett is one of the 386 metro suburbs we service. It is a small, semi-rural locality in the Dandenong Ranges area of Melbourne’s outer south-east, close to Emerald and Gembrook. Rentals here are mostly detached houses and rural-residential properties rather than apartment blocks, so house end of lease cleaning is the more common job. If you are in a unit or flat, apartment end of lease cleaning follows the same checklist.
We are based in Bundoora. You can book by phone on 0401 398 705 or send details through the free quote form.
From quote to booking
The process is short, and most of it can be done while you are still packing:
- Call 0401 398 705. A phone quote usually takes under five minutes.
- Or fill in the free quote form and we reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price for your property, so you know the figure before you commit.
- You book a time. This is usually within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- The clean is done to the REIV exit condition standard, and the 7-day re-clean guarantee is given to you in writing.
If you are comparing an end of lease cleaning quote from different companies, ask each one for the same details: what is included, whether the price is firm, and whether the guarantee is 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 Mount Burnett address.
People often search for end of lease cleaning prices or cheap end of lease cleaning Mount Burnett, and a low headline number is easy to find. A figure only means something once you know what sits behind it. Check whether the oven, windows and cupboards are included, whether carpets are priced per room, and whether there is a written re-clean promise. Those details tell you more than the lowest number does.
What is included
This is the bond cleaning scope we work through, done to the REIV exit condition standard:
- 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
That list is what separates exit cleaning from a regular tidy. Agents tend to look closely at the places a quick wipe skips, such as oven interiors, shower screens, window tracks and the backs of cupboard doors.
Deciding what to bundle
Most rental agreements expect carpets to be professionally cleaned as well. 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 if you have had animals in the house. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
Windows are priced from $8 per window, which is useful if your property has many panes. Bundling is the easiest way to get end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning, or end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, on one booking. The oven is already part of the main clean. Because the number of rooms and windows varies so much between a small rental and a large house, ask for these to be listed separately on your quote.
Picking a time
Dates depend on the diary, so the sooner you call, the more choice you have. Many tenants search for same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning when the move-out date is close. We do not promise any of these. Availability on a given day can only be confirmed when you speak to us, so call 0401 398 705 as early as you can once you know your vacate date.
A sensible target is to have the clean finished after your furniture is out and before the final inspection. Leave a buffer in case something needs a second look.
Before the cleaner arrives
A few jobs are yours, and doing them first lets the clean go faster and finish better:
- Remove all furniture, boxes, rubbish and personal items, including from the garage and any sheds.
- Empty the fridge and pantry. Switch the fridge off and leave the door ajar if you are asked to.
- Take down curtains you own and clear shelves, cupboards and the bathroom cabinet.
- Make sure power and water are still connected on the day. Cleaners need both.
- Arrange access, such as a key or a time you will be there.
Do not book the clean while you are still living in the place. The best plan is to pack room by room, leave the kitchen and bathroom until last, and have everything out by the day before the clean.
After the clean
Walk through the property with the cleaner or soon afterwards, and check the main areas an agent will look at: the oven, the shower, window tracks, and inside the wardrobes. If your carpets were steamed, keep foot traffic to a minimum for the first few hours until they are dry.
We back the work with a 7-day re-clean guarantee in writing. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. This is different from a bond back guarantee end of lease cleaning promise. Whether a bond is released is decided by your agent or landlord, and we do not guarantee that outcome. What we guarantee is the re-clean.
About us
We are a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business servicing metro suburbs, including Mount Burnett. If you are looking for professional bond cleaners, the practical things to check are the written inclusions, the standard the clean is done to, and what happens if the agent raises something afterwards. Our standard is the REIV exit condition standard, and our after-clean promise is the 7-day re-clean.
What affects the price
The final quote depends on property size and condition. These are the usual factors:
- The number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- How much grease has built up in the oven, cooktop and range hood
- The number of windows, tracks and flyscreens
- The number of carpeted rooms, and any stains or pet odour
- The size of the garage and how many cobwebs it has
A larger house on a rural block usually takes longer than a small unit, so we do not quote on suburb alone. Describe the property when you call or use the free quote form and we will price it from there.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Doing it yourself costs only supplies and time, and some tenants are happy to do the whole job. The trade-off is that vacate cleaning to an agent’s standard takes longer than most people expect, especially the oven, descaling and window tracks, and it competes with packing and handover for time in the same week.
Booking end of lease cleaners makes sense if you are short on time, if the property is large, or if you want the work covered by a written re-clean guarantee. A middle option is to clean the general areas yourself and book the carpets and windows. Either way, get the scope clear before you decide.
A checklist to hand us
When you call or fill in the form, have these details ready. They help us give you a firm price:
- The full address and whether it is a house or an apartment
- The number of bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas
- The number of carpeted rooms, and any stains or pet odours
- The approximate number of windows
- Your vacate date and the date of the final inspection
- Any items your agent has specifically flagged
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your entry condition report, your lease and any cleaning requirements from your agent in one place. Save the written quote and the 7-day re-clean guarantee as well. If your agent lists an issue after the inspection, you will have the dates and details to hand and can contact us within the 7 days. Also keep your photos of the property on the day you hand back the keys. Your agent’s end of tenancy cleaning expectations are the reference point, so use that paperwork when you check the clean.
