Moving out of a rental in Yarra Junction (postcode 3797) 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 arranging end of lease cleaning Yarra Junction tenants can rely on for an older timber house or a newer unit, the details below should help you plan.
Covering Yarra Junction
Yarra Junction is one of the 386 Melbourne metro suburbs we service. It sits in the Yarra Valley, in Melbourne’s outer east, along the Warburton Highway, with Launching Place and Warburton close by. We are based in Bundoora, and you can book by phone on 0401 398 705 or through the free quote form.
Housing in the area is mostly detached houses, and many rentals are older homes with the character that comes with them: timber window frames, painted sills, original fittings and older bathrooms. Apartments and units are less common, but we also handle apartment end of lease cleaning. This page leans towards older homes, because they tend to raise the most questions at exit inspection.
From quote to booking
- Call 0401 398 705. Quotes over the phone usually take under five minutes.
- Prefer to write it down? Send the free quote form and we reply the same business day.
- You receive a firm price for the job, so you know the figure before you commit.
- Choose a date. Jobs are usually booked within two to four business days, though that depends on the diary.
- Your 7-day re-clean guarantee is provided in writing. If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, we return and fix it free of charge.
What the price starts from
Bond and end of lease cleaning starts from $280. That is a starting point, not a flat rate for every property. The final figure depends on the size and condition of the place, so please call for a price rather than rely on a number from a web page.
If you are searching for cheap end of lease cleaning in Yarra Junction, the lowest figure is not always the lowest cost. A low quote that leaves out the oven, the wardrobes or the window tracks can end up costing more once you pay for a second visit. Compare what is listed, whether the guarantee is in writing, and the price per room for carpets. Anyone reviewing end of lease cleaning prices should line them up the same way.
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
In older homes, the window tracks and sills deserve attention. Timber frames collect dust and grime in corners, and flyscreens can be dirtier than they look from inside. Descaling matters too, because older bathroom and laundry fittings tend to hold mineral build-up. Our end of lease cleaners work through these areas as part of the standard clean. Permanent wear, such as worn paint or aged grout, is not dirt, so it is worth being realistic about what cleaning can change.
Deciding what to bundle
Many agents expect carpets to be professionally cleaned as well. End of lease cleaning with carpet steam cleaning keeps it all under one booking. Our carpet steam cleaning uses truck-mounted hot water extraction and starts from $35 per room. It includes spot and stain treatment, and pet odour treatment is available. Carpets are usually walk-on dry within a few hours.
Window cleaning starts from $8 per window. If you are after end of lease cleaning with oven and window cleaning, remember that the oven is already part of the standard clean, and window tracks, sills and flyscreens are too. Ask on the phone how you want the glass handled so the quote is clear. Older houses often have many windows, so count them before you call, because the per-window price adds up.
Picking a time
Availability depends on the diary. If you need same day end of lease cleaning, last minute end of lease cleaning or weekend end of lease cleaning, we cannot promise any of those in advance. The practical advice is to call 0401 398 705 as early as you can, ideally as soon as you know your move-out date, and we will tell you what is open.
Work backwards from your key return or inspection date. Book the clean for after your belongings are out, and have any carpet work done at the end so the floors are not walked on again.
Before the cleaner arrives
- Remove all furniture, boxes and personal items, including what is stored in the garage and cupboards.
- Make sure power and water are still connected.
- Arrange access if you will not be there, and tell us where keys will be.
- Take your own photos of marks, damage or wear that was there before you moved in, especially in older homes where the entry report may be brief.
- Do any minor repairs or patching you are responsible for before the clean, so dust is not created afterwards.
After the clean
Walk through the property once the clean is done, if you can. Check the oven, the bathroom, the wardrobes and the window sills, and photograph each area. If you booked carpet steam cleaning, allow a few hours for the carpets to dry before putting anything back down or closing the place up.
If the property manager raises a cleaning issue within 7 days, contact us on 0401 398 705 with their comments. We return and fix it free of charge, as set out in your written guarantee.
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 Melbourne metro suburbs. Whether you call it vacate cleaning, exit cleaning, move out cleaning or end of tenancy cleaning, it is the same job: leaving the property clean to the REIV exit condition standard. For house end of lease cleaning and unit jobs alike, we aim to give you a firm price and clear terms before you book.
What affects the price
Several things move an end of lease cleaning quote up or down:
- The size of the property and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Its condition, including built-up grease in the oven or heavy limescale
- The number of carpeted rooms
- The number of windows, which can be high in older homes
- Extras such as pet odour treatment
Because these vary so much, the final quote depends on property size and condition. A small unit and a large older house will not cost the same, and we would rather tell you that up front.
Choosing between doing it yourself and booking
Cleaning it yourself can work if you have time, the right products and a good idea of what the agent will check. The hard parts are usually the oven, the range hood, descaling and the window tracks, which take longer than most people expect. Carpets are the other sticking point, because a hired machine rarely matches hot water extraction.
If you book, treat professional bond cleaners the way you would any trade. Many people search for the best end of lease cleaning in Yarra Junction, but what matters is what you can check: the inclusions, the price per room, and a written guarantee. Likewise, a bond back guarantee end of lease cleaning is not something we offer. Your bond is decided by the landlord or agent, not by us. What we do guarantee is the 7-day re-clean described above.
A checklist to hand us
Having these details ready makes the call quicker and the quote more accurate:
- The address and whether it is a house or an apartment
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Which rooms are carpeted, and any pet history
- Roughly how many windows there are
- Oven, cooktop and dishwasher condition
- Older-home features such as timber windows, built-in robes or a separate laundry
- Your lease end date and any inspection date
Keeping your paperwork
Keep the written quote, your booking details and the written 7-day guarantee together with your lease documents. Hold on to the entry condition report and your own photos from move-in and move-out. If your agent raises a cleaning concern, send it to us promptly and in writing so it is clear it falls within the 7 days. A tidy paper trail makes end of tenancy discussions simpler for everyone.
