Moving out of a rental in Somers (postcode 3927) 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. It is written for tenants arranging end of lease cleaning Somers properties need before the keys go back, with a few notes for older homes.
Covering Somers
Somers is a small coastal township on the Mornington Peninsula, close to Western Port. It is one of the 386 Melbourne metro suburbs we service. We are based in Bundoora, and you can book by phone on 0401 398 705 or through the free quote form.
Rentals in Somers are mostly houses rather than apartments, and many are older or have been added to over the years. Tenants in nearby Balnarring and Hastings often deal with similar properties. Older homes tend to have more detail to clean: timber window frames, deep sills, original fittings and bathrooms that have seen decades of hard water. That is why a vacate cleaning checklist matters more in an older house than in a new unit.
From quote to booking
The process is short. Here is how it runs for an end of lease cleaning quote in Somers:
- 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 the property size and condition you describe.
- Booking is usually within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- The 7-day re-clean guarantee is provided in writing.
If your lease ends soon, say so on the first call so we can check the diary against your handover date.
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. The final quote depends on property size and condition, so please call for a price.
People often search for cheap end of lease cleaning in Somers, and it is an understandable first step. A low headline number tells you little by itself. When you compare end of lease cleaning prices, look at what each quote includes, whether the guarantee is in writing, and what carpets cost per room. A quote that leaves out the oven or the tracks can cost more once you add them back.
What is included
Our exit 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
In a period house, the window and descaling items are usually where the work is. Older frames collect dust in the tracks, and older tapware and tiles hold limescale. Both are part of the standard clean, so you do not need to tackle them yourself the night before handover.
Deciding what to bundle
Many tenants want the whole job handled by one team. Two add-ons are worth considering.
Carpets. 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. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours. If your agent expects professional carpet cleaning, end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning keeps everything on one booking.
Windows. Window cleaning starts from $8 per window. Older homes often have many smaller panes, so the count matters. If you are after end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, tell us how many windows there are and we will confirm how it fits with the standard clean when we quote.
Some tenants ask about a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning. We do not guarantee the return of your bond, because that decision belongs to your agent or the owner. What we do guarantee is the re-clean, described below.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary. We cannot promise same day end of lease cleaning in Somers, and the same goes for last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning. Those slots depend on what is already booked.
The practical advice is to call 0401 398 705 early, ideally as soon as you know your move-out date. Tell us your handover day and inspection time, and whether carpets are being done. Working back from the inspection also leaves you time to deal with anything the agent raises.
Before the cleaner arrives
A few small steps help the clean go smoothly:
- Remove your belongings, including items in cupboards, the garage and the laundry.
- Keep power and water connected so appliances and taps can be checked.
- Make sure we can get in, and tell us about any alarm, gate or key arrangements.
- Take down anything you hung yourself, and note any damage that cleaning will not fix.
- Let us know about pets, as this affects carpets and odour treatment.
Cleaning does not repair damage. Chipped paint, worn timber or broken fittings are separate matters to settle with your agent, so check your entry condition report early.
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. These are useful if a question comes up later.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That promise is given in writing. Ask the agent to describe any issue specifically, ideally with photos, and pass it on to us promptly by phone.
About us
We are a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business servicing metro suburbs, including Somers. Our focus is bond cleaning, carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning. If you are searching for professional bond cleaners, the useful things to check are the standard the work is done to (ours is the REIV exit condition standard), what is included, and what the guarantee says in writing.
Tenants also look for the best end of lease cleaning in Somers. We would rather you judge us by the details than a label. Compare inclusions, the length and terms of the written guarantee, and the price per room for carpets, then decide.
What affects the price
The starting price of $280 moves with the property. These are the main factors:
- The size of the home and the number of bathrooms
- The condition of the oven, cooktop and range hood
- Built-up limescale in bathrooms and the laundry
- The number of windows, tracks and flyscreens
- Whether you add carpet steam cleaning (by the room) or window cleaning (by the window)
- The state of the garage
A house end of lease cleaning job in Somers will usually involve more rooms, windows and outdoor-facing areas than an apartment end of lease cleaning job. Apartments are less common in Somers, but if you are leaving a unit, the same checklist applies. We confirm a firm price once we know the details.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself saves money on paper. It also takes a lot of time at the busiest point of a move, and agents inspect closely. Ovens, range hoods, window tracks and descaling are the jobs most often left half done.
Booking end of lease cleaners makes sense if you are short on time, moving a long way, or leaving an older home with a lot of detail. Doing it yourself can be reasonable for a small, well-kept place if you have the time and a copy of the agent’s cleaning list. Whichever you choose, treat move out cleaning as a task with a deadline, not something for the final evening.
A checklist to hand us
When you call or fill in the form, have these details ready. It makes the quote faster and more accurate:
- Your address in Somers and whether it is a house or a unit
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Number of windows, and any with unusual frames or multiple panes
- Which rooms have carpet, and any stains or pet odours
- Oven and range hood condition
- Whether there is a garage or outbuilding to sweep
- Your lease end date, and your inspection date if you know it
Keeping your paperwork
End of tenancy cleaning is easier to defend when the records are in order. Keep these together until your bond is finalised:
- Your entry condition report and any photos from move-in
- Our quote, invoice and the written 7-day re-clean guarantee
- Your own dated photos from after the clean
- Any emails or notes from the agent about cleaning or inspection
