Moving out of a rental in Taylors Lakes (postcode 3038) 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, for anyone arranging end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes, with a particular focus on pets and carpets.
Covering Taylors Lakes
Taylors Lakes is one of the 386 metro suburbs we service, in Melbourne’s north-west. We are based in Bundoora, and you can book by phone or through the quote form.
The suburb is mostly detached family homes, with some townhouses and units mixed in. That matters for the job. House end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes usually means more carpeted bedrooms, a garage and more windows. Apartment end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes is usually smaller, though it still needs the oven, bathroom and windows done properly. Watergardens Town Centre and the train station are close by, and Sydenham is the neighbouring suburb, so many tenants here are moving a short distance or heading further out of Melbourne.
Families with dogs and cats are common in suburbs like this, which is why carpets and pet odour get more attention than usual on this page.

What the price starts from

If you are searching for cheap end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes or the best end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes, we would rather you compare than take a label on trust. Look at what each quote includes, whether the guarantee is in writing, and what the carpet price per room is. A low headline figure that leaves out the oven, the tracks or the carpets can cost you more by the time the agent inspects. When you compare end of lease cleaning prices Taylors Lakes, put the quotes side by side on those points.
What is included
Our bond cleaning Taylors Lakes 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
Whatever you call it, whether vacate cleaning, exit cleaning, move out cleaning or end of tenancy cleaning, it is the same job. It is the clean your property manager expects at the final inspection.
Deciding what to bundle
Most leases require carpets to be professionally cleaned as well, so end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning Taylors Lakes is a common combination. Our carpet steam cleaning uses truck-mounted hot water extraction and starts from $35 per room. It includes spot and stain treatment, and carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
If a pet has lived in the home, pet odour treatment is available. Hair, dander and the occasional accident settle into carpet fibre, and an agent will notice a smell as soon as they open the door. Tell us about the pets when you call so the quote reflects it.
Window cleaning is from $8 per window. If you want end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning Taylors Lakes, the oven is already part of the clean, so the only question is the windows. Ask us on the call how windows apply to your property and how many you have.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary, and we cannot promise a date before you ask. That includes same day end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes, last minute end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes and weekend end of lease cleaning Taylors Lakes. Some dates fill up, especially around the end of a month.
The practical advice is to call 0401 398 705 as early as you can, once you know your move-out date. Give yourself a gap between the clean and the final inspection, so there is room to fix anything that comes up.
Before the cleaner arrives
A few things make the clean quicker and the result better:
- Remove your belongings, furniture and rubbish. Cleaners cannot clean under or behind things that are still in place.
- Take pet beds, bowls, litter trays and toys out, and arrange for animals to be elsewhere on the day.
- Vacuum loose pet hair if you can, then point out any stains or odours you already know about.
- Leave power and water connected so the oven, dishwasher and taps can be properly checked.
- Make sure the cleaner can get into the garage, balcony and any storage areas.
After the clean
Walk through the property when the clean is finished, if you can, and compare it with your ingoing condition report. Check the carpets last. If they have been steam cleaned, they are usually walk-on dry within a few hours, but keep pets and people off them until then.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That is our 7-day re-clean guarantee, and it is in writing. People often ask about a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning. We do not promise a particular bond outcome, because that decision belongs to the landlord or agent and covers more than cleaning. What we do guarantee is the re-clean.
About us
Australia Bond Cleaning is a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business. Our professional bond cleaners and end of lease cleaners work across the metro area, and Taylors Lakes is one of the suburbs we service. Our work is built around the REIV exit condition standard, because that is the benchmark most agents use when they inspect.
What affects the price
The final quote depends on property size and condition. The main factors are:
- The number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Whether it is a house or an apartment, and whether there is a garage
- How much oven and rangehood build-up there is
- The number of carpeted rooms for steam cleaning
- Heavy pet hair, stains or odour
- The number of windows, if you add window cleaning
A home that has been kept tidy and has hard floors will generally cost less than a large carpeted house with pets. Call us for a quote so we can price your actual property rather than guess.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself is possible, and plenty of tenants do. The trade-off is time and equipment. Ovens and range hoods need hours of work, descaling bathrooms takes specific products, and hiring a carpet machine rarely matches truck-mounted hot water extraction, especially with pet stains.
Booking makes the most sense when you are also handling a removalist, utilities and handover keys, or when you have pets and carpets that are hard to get right. A written re-clean guarantee also means a missed spot is not left to you to sort out the night before handover.
A checklist to hand us
When you call or fill in the form, it helps to have the following ready:
- Your address in Taylors Lakes and whether it is a house, unit or townhouse
- Bedrooms, bathrooms and whether there is a garage
- Which rooms are carpeted
- Whether pets lived there, and any known stains or odours
- Approximate number of windows
- Your move-out date and inspection date
- Any special requirements from your agent
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your invoice, your written 7-day re-clean guarantee and your ingoing condition report together. Take dated photos of the property after the clean, including the oven, bathrooms and carpets. If the agent raises something, you will have a record of how it looked and can contact us within the 7-day window.
