Moving out of a rental in Williamstown North (postcode 3016) 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 for end of lease cleaning Williamstown North, using what we state on our site. It is written around what property managers check at the exit inspection, room by room.
Covering Williamstown North
Williamstown North is one of the 386 metro suburbs we service, in Melbourne’s western region. We are based in Bundoora, so the work is booked by phone on 0401 398 705 or through the free quote form.
The suburb has its own station on the Williamstown line and is mostly houses, with some units and townhouses mixed in. That means we are asked for both house end of lease cleaning and apartment end of lease cleaning. The scope is the same either way. Only the size of the job and the condition of the property change.
If you are searching for bond cleaning, vacate cleaning, exit cleaning, move out cleaning or end of tenancy cleaning, you are describing the same job. It is a full clean of the property so it can be handed back to the agent or landlord in the condition your lease requires.
From quote to booking
Getting an end of lease cleaning quote is meant to be simple. Here is how it works:
- 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.
- Once you accept, booking is usually within two to four business days.
- Your clean comes with a 7-day re-clean guarantee in writing.
Have the number of bedrooms and bathrooms ready, and whether you want carpets or windows added. That is enough for most quotes.
What the price starts from
Bond & End of Lease Cleaning starts from $280. That is a starting point, not a fixed price for every property. A one-bedroom apartment and a four-bedroom house in Williamstown North will not cost the same, so call for a price and we will quote for your place.
People often search for end of lease cleaning prices before anything else. A price on its own tells you little, so compare what sits behind it, which we cover further down.
What is included
The clean is done to the REIV exit condition standard. Property managers usually work through the property room by room against the entry condition report, and the clean follows the same path:
- Kitchen: inside cupboards and drawers, oven, cooktop, range hood and dishwasher. Ovens and range hoods are among the first things an agent opens.
- Bathrooms and laundry: descaling of tiles, taps, screens, basins and fittings, plus the laundry tub and surrounds.
- Bedrooms and living areas: inside wardrobes and built-in storage, plus the rest of the room.
- Windows: glass, tracks, sills and flyscreens.
- Garage: sweep and cobweb removal.
Tracks, sills and the insides of appliances are easy to miss when you clean for yourself. Professional bond cleaners work through them as a matter of routine, because that is where agents tend to look.
Deciding what to bundle
Most leases expect the carpets to be professionally cleaned as well, and many tenants also add windows. These are priced separately:
- Carpet steam cleaning: from $35 per room, using truck-mounted hot water extraction. It includes spot and stain treatment. Pet odour treatment is available. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
- Window cleaning: from $8 per window.
If you want end of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning, or end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, say so when you call and we will price it as one job. Check your lease first. If it requires a carpet receipt or professional carpet cleaning, you will need that done anyway.
Picking a time
Timing depends on the diary. We do not promise same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning in advance. Availability changes with demand, and the end of the month is usually busy.
If your handover date is tight, or you want a weekend slot, call 0401 398 705 as early as you can. The earlier you ask, the more options there are. Where possible, book the clean for after your furniture is out and before the final inspection, so that nothing gets marked again.
Before the cleaner arrives
A little preparation makes the clean more thorough:
- Remove all furniture, boxes and personal items, including from the garage and wardrobes.
- Empty the fridge and freezer if they belong to you, and clear the pantry.
- Take rubbish and unwanted items away. Cleaners clean, they do not remove belongings.
- Make sure power and water are connected, so the oven, dishwasher and taps can be checked.
- Let us know about anything unusual, such as heavy stains, pets or mould.
After the clean
Walk through the property once the clean is done and compare it with your entry condition report. Then keep the property as it is until the inspection. Avoid moving more furniture through, and avoid walking on carpet that is still damp.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge. That is the 7-day re-clean guarantee, and you receive it in writing. Contact us promptly and send the agent’s list of items, so we know exactly what to address.
You may see bond back guarantee end of lease cleaning offered elsewhere. We do not guarantee the return of your bond. Condition, damage, rent owed and the agent’s decision all affect that, and a cleaner cannot control them. What we do guarantee is the re-clean.
About us
Australia Bond Cleaning is a Bundoora-based Melbourne cleaning business. We service Melbourne metro suburbs, including Williamstown North and neighbouring Williamstown. Our work covers bond and end of lease cleaning, carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning. For anything not covered here, call 0401 398 705 and ask.
What affects the price
The final quote depends on property size and condition. These are the main factors:
- Number of bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas.
- Whether the property is a house or an apartment, and whether there is a garage.
- Condition of the oven, range hood, bathrooms and windows.
- Number of carpeted rooms and windows, if you add those services.
- Pet odour or heavy stains on carpet.
If you are comparing a cheap end of lease cleaning offer with ours, look at the inclusions list, whether a re-clean guarantee is in writing, and the price per room for carpets. A low headline price that leaves out the oven, tracks or the guarantee can cost more once you add things back. In the same way, we do not describe ourselves as the best end of lease cleaning option. Compare the same inclusions across quotes and decide on that basis.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself saves money, and some tenants do it well. The risk is that the exit standard is detailed. Oven interiors, range hood filters, shower descaling, window tracks and inside wardrobes take hours, and they are the points agents tend to look at closely.
Booking makes sense if you are short on time, moving interstate, or already juggling a handover date. It also makes sense if the place has not had a deep clean in a while. If you prefer to do part of it yourself, ask us about carpets and windows only. Both are priced separately from the main clean.
A checklist to hand us
When you call or fill in the free quote form, these details help us give an accurate end of lease cleaning quote:
- Property type (house, unit, townhouse or apartment) and number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
- Your handover or inspection date.
- Number of carpeted rooms and number of windows.
- Whether there are pets, and any known stains or odours.
- Anything your agent has specifically listed from the entry condition report.
Keeping your paperwork
Keep your written 7-day re-clean guarantee, your quote and your payment receipt together with your lease, entry condition report and exit inspection notes. If a cleaning issue is raised, you can then show what was booked and what was covered, and we can respond quickly.
