Covering West Footscray

You may see the job called bond cleaning West Footscray, vacate cleaning, exit cleaning or move out cleaning. It is the same thing: the final clean before you return the keys.

If you are comparing end of lease cleaning prices in West Footscray, line the quotes up properly. You will find plenty of results for cheap end of lease cleaning and best end of lease cleaning, and we do not use those labels. Compare what is included, whether the guarantee is in writing, and the price per room for extras such as carpets. A low figure that leaves out the oven or a return visit can cost you more later.
What is included
Our clean is done to the REIV exit condition standard. Property managers usually inspect room by room, so this list follows the same order:
- Kitchen: inside cupboards and drawers, oven, cooktop, range hood and dishwasher. Ovens and range hoods are easy to underestimate.
- Bathroom: descaling, so limescale and soap build-up are dealt with.
- Laundry: descaling, plus inside the cupboards.
- Bedrooms and living areas: inside wardrobes, cupboards and drawers.
- Windows: windows, tracks, sills and flyscreens.
- Garage: sweep and cobweb removal.
- Carpets: booked separately as steam cleaning (see below).
Deciding what to bundle
Carpets are one of the first things an agent looks at, so many tenants want end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning in West Footscray. Ours is truck-mounted hot water extraction from $35/room, and it includes spot and stain treatment. Pet odour treatment is available if you had a pet, so mention it when you call. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours. Some leases require professional carpet cleaning, so check yours.
For end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, the oven is already part of the main clean. Window cleaning is available from $8/window. Tell us roughly how many windows you have and we will price it together.
Picking a time
Work backwards from your key handover and final inspection dates. Availability depends on the diary, so call 0401 398 705 as early as you can once you know your move-out date. We cannot promise same day end of lease cleaning or last minute end of lease cleaning, and weekend end of lease cleaning in West Footscray depends on what is already booked. Ask when you call.
The best timing is after your furniture is out and before the inspection, so nothing gets dirty again.
Before the cleaner arrives
- Remove all your belongings, including from the garage, wardrobes, cupboards and fridge.
- Take out rubbish and leave the property accessible.
- Keep power and water on, as cleaning needs both.
- Tell us about heavy build-up, pet hair or anything unusual.
Cleaning does not cover repairs. Holes, damage and broken fittings need to be handled separately.
After the clean
Walk through each room with the list above and take dated photos before you hand back the keys. Carpets can stay damp for a few hours after steam cleaning, so keep shoes off them until they are dry.
We do not offer a bond back guarantee for end of lease cleaning in West Footscray, because the bond decision is not ours to make. What we give you is the 7-day re-clean guarantee in writing. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within that time, call 0401 398 705 with the details and we will return to fix it free of charge.

What affects the price
- Property size, including bedrooms, bathrooms and whether it is an apartment or a house.
- Condition, such as a greasy oven or heavy limescale.
- The number of carpeted rooms needing steam cleaning.
- The number of windows, if you want window cleaning added.
- Extras like a garage or pet odour treatment.
That is why the final quote depends on property size and condition, and why a call is the quickest way to get a firm figure.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself costs supplies and time. The slow parts are the oven, descaling and window tracks. If you go that route, use the room-by-room list above as your guide. Booking tends to suit you if you are short on time, moving interstate, or want a written guarantee behind an end of tenancy cleaning. Either way, decide early, because diary space is limited.
A checklist to hand us
Have these ready when you call or fill in the form:
- Address and whether it is an apartment or house.
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
- Number of carpeted rooms and windows.
- Oven condition and whether you had pets.
- Handover and inspection dates.
- Any cleaning list your agent supplied.
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your quote, the written 7-day guarantee, receipts, your dated photos and your entry condition report together. If the agent raises an issue, you can respond with facts and contact us within the 7 days.
