Moving out of a rental in Springvale South (postcode 3172) 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 Springvale South, with extra attention to pets and carpets, which tend to draw close attention at exit inspections.

From quote to booking
Getting an end of lease cleaning quote for Springvale South is a short process:
- Call 0401 398 705. Phone quotes take under five minutes, so have the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and carpeted rooms handy, plus any pets.
- Or send the free quote form. We reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price for the job, based on the size and condition of the property.
- You book a date. Bookings are usually made within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- We confirm the 7-day re-clean guarantee in writing.
If you are still deciding between a few providers, ask each one to put the price and the inclusions in writing so you can compare them side by side.
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. Call 0401 398 705 for a price that fits your place.
Plenty of tenants search for cheap end of lease cleaning or the best end of lease cleaning in Springvale South. We do not use those labels, because they do not tell you much. When you compare end of lease cleaning prices in Springvale South, look at three things instead:
- What the clean includes, line by line, such as the oven, the range hood and the inside of cupboards.
- Whether the re-clean guarantee is in writing, and how many days it runs.
- The price per room for carpet work, rather than a single figure with no detail behind it.
What is included
The clean is aimed at what an agent checks on the exit inspection. Professional bond cleaners work through the property room by room, and 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
Carpet steam cleaning is priced separately, which is covered in the next section. The same list applies to apartment end of lease cleaning and house end of lease cleaning. A larger home simply has more rooms to work through, and that is reflected in the quote.
Deciding what to bundle
If you have had pets, carpets deserve the most thought. Dogs and cats leave hair, odour and the occasional stain, and agents often look closely at the lounge, bedrooms and hallway.
Our carpet steam cleaning uses truck-mounted hot water extraction and starts from $35 per room. Spot and stain treatment is part of that service. Pet odour treatment is available if the carpet needs it, so mention your animals when you call. We cannot promise how a particular stain will respond, since that depends on what it is, how old it is and the carpet fibre. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
Many tenants ask for end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning Springvale South in one booking, so everything is done in a single visit. Window cleaning is available from $8 per window. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, note that the oven is already part of the standard clean. Ask us how window glass fits with the tracks, sills and flyscreens that are already included.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary, so we cannot promise a particular date before we have seen what is booked. People often ask about same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning in Springvale South. We do not guarantee any of these. If your handover date is close, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can and we will tell you what is possible.
A sensible order is to move your furniture out first, book the clean for after that, and leave a gap before the final inspection. That gap gives carpets time to dry fully and leaves room for a re-clean if the agent raises something.
Before the cleaner arrives
A little preparation makes the visit more effective. Cleaners can only reach what is empty and accessible.
- Remove your belongings, rubbish and anything left in cupboards, the garage and wardrobes.
- Make sure power, hot water and gas are still connected so the oven and appliances can be tested and cleaned.
- Arrange for pets to be elsewhere on the day, and remove their beds, bowls and litter trays.
- Tell us about pet accidents or stains on the carpet before the visit, not after.
- Confirm how we will get in, whether that is a key handover, a lockbox or you being there.
After the clean
Once the job is done, walk through with your own checklist if you can. Take dated photos of each room, the oven, the bathrooms and the carpets. These are useful if any question comes up later.
Our guarantee is the 7-day re-clean in writing. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. People search for a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning in Springvale South, but we do not guarantee any bond outcome, because that decision belongs to the landlord, the agent and the tenancy authority. What we do guarantee is that a cleaning issue raised in that window gets fixed.
If you have had the carpets cleaned, allow them to dry before moving things back in or walking through in outdoor shoes.
About us
Australia Bond Cleaning is a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business. We provide bond and end of lease cleaning, carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning across the metro area. Our work is built around the REIV exit condition standard, because that is what tenants are measured against when they hand back the keys. For a quote, call 0401 398 705 or use the free quote form.
What affects the price
The starting price is the same for everyone, but the final quote depends on property size and condition. These are the things that move it:
- The number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and the overall size of the home
- The condition of the kitchen, oven and bathrooms when we start
- How many rooms of carpet need steam cleaning
- Pet odour or stains that need extra treatment
- The number of windows, if you add window cleaning
- Whether there is a garage to sweep and clear of cobwebs
A one-bedroom unit and a four-bedroom house are different jobs, so a phone call or form is the quickest way to get a figure that is actually yours.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning the place yourself is a fair option if you have the time, the equipment and a short list of rooms. The oven, range hood, descaling and window tracks are the slow parts, and carpets are harder without proper extraction equipment.
Booking makes more sense when you are juggling a move, work or a pet-heavy carpet. It also gives you a written guarantee to point to. Whichever way you go, work from the agent’s cleaning list, since it tells you what they will check at the exit inspection.
A checklist to hand us
When you call or fill in the form, these details help us give an accurate price:
- The address and whether it is a house, unit or apartment
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Which rooms are carpeted
- Pets, and which rooms they used
- Approximate number of windows
- Whether there is a garage
- Your lease end date and the inspection date, if known
- A copy of the agent’s cleaning list, if they gave you one
Keeping your paperwork
Keep everything connected to the clean in one folder, whether you are leaving a rental after a short stay or at the end of a long tenancy. That means your quote, the written 7-day re-clean guarantee, the payment receipt, your photos, the entry condition report and any emails with the agent. If a cleaning issue is raised, having these ready makes it simple to tell us exactly what the agent has flagged, and to get it fixed within the 7 days.
