What is included
Our bond cleaning in Mulgrave covers the areas agents tend to check closely at an exit inspection:
- 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
Professional bond cleaners work through a property room by room, which is why a written list of inclusions matters more than a headline price. If your agent has supplied their own cleaning checklist, keep it handy and mention it when you call.
Deciding what to bundle
Many tenants add carpets and windows so the whole handover is dealt with in one booking. That is useful when you are also juggling a move into another suburb.
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. If you want end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning in Mulgrave, say so when you call so it is priced in one quote.
Windows. Window cleaning is from $8 per window. Tracks, sills and flyscreens are part of the standard clean, so when you ask for end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning in Mulgrave, ask us on the call how the windows are covered at your property. We can confirm it when we quote.
Total cost depends on how many carpeted rooms and windows you have, so count them before you ring.
Picking a time
Availability depends on our diary, and we cannot promise a particular day in advance. That applies to same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning and weekend end of lease cleaning in Mulgrave as well. Any of those may be possible, but only the diary can say, so we do not guarantee them.
If your dates are tight, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can, ideally as soon as you have given notice or know your move date. Having your inspection or key return date ready makes it quicker to see what fits. Working backwards from that date, rather than from the day the truck arrives, usually gives you more choices.
Before the cleaner arrives
A little preparation keeps the clean focused on cleaning rather than on clearing up after you.
- Remove all belongings, including items in the garage, cupboards and wardrobes.
- Take rubbish and unwanted items out, so surfaces are accessible.
- Keep power and water connected until the clean is finished.
- Arrange access if you will not be there, and let us know about alarms, pets or a lockbox.
- Leave the agent’s cleaning list or your entry condition report where you can find it.
If you are moving between suburbs, it often works best to move your belongings first and leave the final day for the clean and the handover.
After the clean
Once the clean is done, walk through the property with the agent’s checklist if you can. Check the areas that are easy to miss when you are rushed, such as the oven, wardrobes, window tracks and the garage. Take dated photos for your records.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That written 7-day re-clean guarantee is what we offer. We do not offer a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning in Mulgrave, because the bond decision rests with the property owner or agent and can involve things other than cleaning, such as damage or wear.
About us
We are a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business servicing metro suburbs, including Mulgrave. Our work covers bond and end of lease cleaning, carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning. For tenants who want vacate cleaning, exit cleaning or move out cleaning handled in one call, the quote can include all of these. You deal with us directly by phone on 0401 398 705 or through the quote form.
What affects the price
Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280, and the final quote depends on property size and condition. These are the main factors:
- the number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- how much cleaning the oven, bathrooms and floors need
- how many carpeted rooms need steam cleaning
- how many windows you want cleaned
- whether pet odour treatment is needed on carpets
- whether there is a garage to sweep and clear of cobwebs
A well-kept unit is quoted differently from a four-bedroom house that has not had a deep clean in a while. Tell us honestly what condition it is in, and the quote will be more accurate.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself saves money on paper, and some tenants do it well. The question is whether you have the time. Descaling bathrooms, degreasing an oven and range hood, wiping out every cupboard and doing the window tracks takes a lot of hours, usually in the same days you are packing, driving boxes and sorting out utilities at the new address.
Booking end of tenancy cleaning in Mulgrave makes more sense when your move date is fixed, when the property is large, or when you want a written re-clean guarantee behind the result. If you do clean yourself, use the agent’s checklist as your guide and still consider booking carpets separately, since steam cleaning needs the equipment.
A checklist to hand us
Have these details ready when you call 0401 398 705 or fill in the free quote form:
- the address and whether it is a house, unit, townhouse or apartment
- the number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- how many rooms are carpeted
- roughly how many windows you want cleaned
- whether there are pets or pet odour in the carpets
- your key return date and any inspection date
- how we will get access, and whether you will be there
- whether your agent has given you a cleaning checklist
Keeping your paperwork
Keep everything together until your bond has been finalised. That includes your quote, your invoice, the written 7-day re-clean guarantee, your entry condition report, the agent’s cleaning checklist and your dated photos from after the clean.
If the agent raises a cleaning issue, send it to us promptly, since the guarantee covers issues raised within 7 days. Having the paperwork on hand also makes it easier to match what the agent says against what was cleaned.
