Moving out of a rental in Templestowe Lower (postcode 3107) 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. If you are comparing options for end of lease cleaning Templestowe Lower tenants can book, it should help you decide with the facts in front of you.
Covering Templestowe Lower
Templestowe Lower is one of the 386 metro suburbs we service across Melbourne. It sits in the city’s north-east, and we are based in Bundoora. You can book by phone or through the quote form, whichever suits you.
The suburb is mostly detached houses, with some units and townhouses mixed in. That means we see both house end of lease cleaning and apartment end of lease cleaning requests, and the scope is quite different. A family house usually means more rooms, a bigger garage and more windows. A unit is smaller but often has a tighter handover deadline. The Macedon Square shopping centre is the main local shopping strip, and buses rather than a train line connect the area, so many tenants are not close to a station. Neighbouring Bulleen and Doncaster are also within our service area.
Students and share-house tenants make up a good share of the people who ask about vacate cleaning in this part of Melbourne. We cover that in more detail below.
From quote to booking
The process is short, and you know the price before you commit:
- Call 0401 398 705. Quotes over the phone usually take under five minutes.
- Or send the free quote form. We reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price based on the property size and condition.
- Book your clean. Bookings are usually made within two to four business days, depending on the diary.
- Your 7-day re-clean guarantee is provided in writing.
If you want an end of lease cleaning quote Templestowe Lower agents will not question, give us accurate details about the property when you ask. A price based on the real condition holds up better than a guess.
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. Please call 0401 398 705 for a price that fits your place.
People searching for end of lease cleaning prices Templestowe Lower often want a single number. We can’t give an honest one without knowing the property, because a one-bedroom unit and a four-bedroom house are different jobs. We do not quote any other fixed price for the full clean.
What is included
Our bond 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
This is the work a property manager is likely to check at the final inspection. It is the scope our professional bond cleaners follow, so you do not need to write your own list of tasks. Whether you call it exit cleaning, move out cleaning or end of tenancy cleaning, the aim is the same: the property returned in the condition the exit standard expects.
Deciding what to bundle
Two add-ons come up most often, and both are priced separately from the base clean.
- Carpet steam cleaning is from $35 per room. We use truck-mounted hot water extraction. Spot and stain treatment is included, and pet odour treatment is available. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
- Window cleaning is from $8 per window.
If your lease or entry report mentions carpet condition, end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning is often the simplest way to cover it in one booking. Likewise, end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning is easy to arrange, because the oven is already part of the standard scope and windows can be quoted by count. When you call, tell us how many rooms have carpet and how many windows you have, and we will build the total from there.
Picking a time
Availability depends on our diary, so we can’t promise a particular day before we have checked it. If you are after same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning in Templestowe Lower, the honest answer is that it depends on what is free. Call 0401 398 705 as early as you can and we will tell you what is possible.
The best way to protect your handover date is to ring once you know your move-out date, rather than waiting until the final week. Tenants in a share house, where several people finish leases at once, should settle on one date and make one call.
Before the cleaner arrives
A few preparation steps make the clean more effective:
- Remove all belongings, furniture and rubbish, including from the garage and any outdoor areas.
- Empty the fridge and pantry. Cupboards and drawers need to be clear to be cleaned inside.
- Make sure there is access, plus working power and water.
- In a share house, agree who clears which room, so nothing is left behind in a shared space.
- Take your own photos of the property before we start, for your records.
Students often finish a lease on the same day exams or a flight date forces a move. Give us the property details early and ask what time the keys are due back, so the clean can be planned around it.
After the clean
Do a walk-through when the work is done and compare it against your exit checklist. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That 7-day re-clean guarantee is given in writing.
If you have had carpets steamed, keep foot traffic light for the first few hours until they are dry. Then return the keys as your agent has instructed.

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 an apartment or a house, and whether there is a garage
- How much grease or build-up is in the oven, cooktop and range hood
- Limescale in bathrooms and the laundry
- The number of carpeted rooms and windows you add on
- Whether pet odour treatment is needed
When you compare cheap end of lease cleaning offers, look beyond the headline number. Check what is included, whether the guarantee is written down, and the price per room for carpets. The same applies when someone claims to be the best end of lease cleaning in the area: ask for the inclusions and the guarantee terms in writing, and compare those.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself saves money if you have time, the right products and a clear idea of the exit standard. It is harder with an oven, range hood, bathroom descaling and window tracks, which take the longest and are most often flagged. For a student juggling study or work, or four housemates trying to coordinate, the time cost can be higher than it looks.
Booking makes sense when your time is short, the property is large, or you want a written guarantee behind the result. Doing part of it yourself and booking the rest is also an option, but ask us first, as the scope of the quote depends on the property’s condition.
A checklist to hand us
When you call or fill in the form, have these details ready:
- The address and whether it is a house, unit or townhouse
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Whether there is a garage
- Number of carpeted rooms and windows
- Any pets, and whether odour treatment is needed
- Your move-out date and key return time
- Any specific items from your agent’s checklist
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your entry condition report, your exit checklist, your photos, the quote and the written guarantee together. If the agent raises a cleaning issue, you will have everything in one place. Your bond is handled through the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority, and the outcome is between you, your agent and the landlord. We don’t offer a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning in Templestowe Lower or anywhere else. What we do guarantee is the 7-day re-clean.
