It is written with families in mind, particularly those leaving a larger house, where more rooms mean more to clean.

If you are comparing options, ask for an end of lease cleaning quote Red Hill that lists what is included, so you can compare like with like.
What the price starts from
Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280. That is a starting point, not a flat rate for every property. A larger family house with several bedrooms and bathrooms is priced on its size and condition, so call for a price rather than relying on a figure from a website.
We do not publish other prices for the clean itself. What we can tell you is that the quote is firm once we have the details, and the details are easy to give (see the checklist further down).
What is included
The clean is done to the REIV exit condition standard. For house end of lease cleaning in Red Hill, that 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
Family homes tend to have more wardrobes, more bathrooms and a bigger garage than a unit does. That is why the clean is quoted on the actual property, not on a standard room count.
Deciding what to bundle
Many tenants add carpets. Carpet steam cleaning is truck-mounted hot water extraction, from $35/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 are comparing end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning in Red Hill, count the carpeted rooms first, because a four or five bedroom house adds up quickly. Bedrooms, living areas and hallways may all be counted, so ask how rooms are measured when you call.
Window cleaning is from $8/window. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, the oven is part of the standard clean. For windows, count them and ask how they fit with the window items already in the clean. Larger houses often have many more windows than people expect.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary. We cannot promise same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning in Red Hill. If you need a particular date, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can. Calling early gives you the best chance of fitting the clean between your removalists and your key return.
For families, the practical order is usually: move furniture out, clean, then hand back the keys. Cleaning around furniture or boxes is slower and leaves areas untouched.
Before the cleaner arrives
- Remove furniture, boxes and personal belongings, including items in the garage, shed and wardrobes.
- Check that power and water are still connected.
- Arrange access if you will not be there.
- Mention pets, since they affect carpets and odour.
- Point out problem areas such as a heavily used oven or marked walls.
A house that has been lived in by a family for a few years will usually have built-up grease, soap scum and scuffs. Telling us in advance helps the quote reflect reality.
After the clean
If you booked carpets, stay off them for the first few hours until they are walk-on dry. Then do your own walk-through before the final inspection and compare it with your entry condition report.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That is the guarantee, and it is given in writing. We do not offer a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning in Red Hill, because the bond decision rests with the agent and the owner. What we guarantee is the re-clean.

What affects the price
Final prices depend on property size and condition. For end of lease cleaning prices in Red Hill, the main factors are:

- Overall condition, including oven and bathroom build-up
- Number of carpeted rooms, if you add steam cleaning

- Garage size and how much needs sweeping
You may see searches for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning in Red Hill. We do not use those labels. A better test is to compare what each quote includes, whether the re-clean guarantee is in writing, and the price per room for carpets.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Doing it yourself saves money, but it takes time and the items on an agent’s list are demanding: oven interiors, descaling, window tracks and every wardrobe. When you are packing a family home, and perhaps handing over keys on a fixed day, the cleaning can be the task that slips.
Booking suits you if you are short on time, have several bathrooms or a large garage, or want the re-clean guarantee behind the job. Doing it yourself suits a smaller, lightly used property where you have a few spare days. Either way, work from the exit condition standard, not from a general tidy.
A checklist to hand us
Having these details ready makes a quote on the phone quick:
- Property address and whether it is a house or apartment
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Number of carpeted rooms and any pet issues
- Approximate number of windows
- Oven and cooktop condition
- Your key return date and preferred clean date
- Any requirements the agent has sent you
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your quote, your booking confirmation and the written 7-day re-clean guarantee together with your lease documents. Also keep your entry condition report, your exit inspection notes and any photos you took on the day. If the agent raises a cleaning issue, having these to hand lets you pass it on to us quickly, inside the 7-day window.
