A team of two shares it, so they’re on site for about half as long.
Your bond
No cleaner can guarantee your bond back: a claim can also cover rent and damage. What we stand behind is the checklist. Tell us within 48 hours if anything on it was missed, and an eligible re-clean is free under our Care & Cover terms.
Not included
Exterior windows and mould removal. Carpet steam cleaning isn’t in the base price: add it in booking or book it on its own, and keep the receipt if your lease asks for it.

When to book your end of lease clean
Book it for after the removalists have finished and, where you can, a few days before the final inspection. That leaves time to walk through, tell us within 48 hours if anything on the checklist was missed, and have it fixed before the agent arrives.
An empty home
The clean is planned for an empty property, so cupboards, wardrobes and the space behind appliances can be reached. Furniture or boxes left behind limit what can be cleaned.
Power and water on
Keep the electricity and water connected until the clean is done. Without them the clean can’t go ahead, and a fee may apply.
Keys and access
We don’t hold keys. Leave a lockbox code or meet the cleaner, and book any lift, loading dock or visitor access in advance.
Parking
Arrange a visitor space or add parking instructions; where there’s nowhere to park, the clean may need to be rescheduled.
Your agent’s checklist
If your property manager gave you an exit checklist, add it to your booking notes so the cleaner can see what will be inspected.

GOOD TO KNOW BEFOREHAND
Outside the usual scope
Mould removal, hazardous waste, heavy lifting, high-reach areas and chandeliers aren’t part of these domestic cleans. Repairs, pest control and gardening need separate arrangements.
Carpet steam cleaning isn’t part of the clean itself; vacuuming is included. You can add carpet steam cleaning in booking or book it on its own. If your lease asks for a professional carpet clean, keep the receipt.
Regrouting, sealing, exterior windows and other specialist work aren’t part of our cleans. A balcony, patio or garage can be added as an extra; ask the team about anything else before booking.

WHO WE WELCOME INTO YOUR HOME
Experienced cleaners. Thoughtful checks.
We look for people who already know how to clean professionally and are committed to quality service. Our application process checks who they are, how they work and whether they are ready for the services they offer.
Identity verification
Cleaners complete an identity check before they can be approved to take bookings.
Professional cleaning checks
New applicants tell us about their professional cleaning experience, skills and equipment for the services they offer. Answers that need a closer look are flagged for review.
Mandatory safety checks
Every cleaner completes practical safety questions covering cleaning products, surface care and keeping bathroom and kitchen cloths separate. Safety answers that need attention must be resolved before they can take new jobs.
Phone screening
We screen every applicant over the phone before approval.
Online orientation
Our signup flow includes three short cleaning videos with quizzes covering kitchens, bathrooms and living areas.
Quality & ratings checks
Our checks continue after approval. Customers can rate every clean. We closely monitor each cleaner’s ratings and feedback, and follow up when a clean falls short.
A personal quality promise
Each cleaner personally accepts our quality agreement for the services they offer during signup and skills setup. They commit to doing their best to deliver a premium clean and returning at no extra charge if you report a cleaning concern or leave a low rating within 48 hours of your clean ending. The 48 hours is for reporting a concern; the return visit is arranged afterwards.
Team members complete their own checks and make their own quality promise. A team leader’s experience does not replace each cleaner’s personal skills, safety checks or identity verification.
Care & Cover
A little more peace of mind.
Every clean comes with Care & Cover: our Happiness Guarantee, published insurance cover and a team to turn to.
- 01The Happiness GuaranteeIf something on the booked list isn't right, tell us within 48 hours. We arrange a complimentary re-clean of those areas within seven business days, and if you're still unhappy we review it and offer a fair credit or refund.
- 02Up to $10 million public liability insuranceOur service terms describe up to $10 million in public liability insurance through Chubb Insurance Australia. If something is damaged, send a photo and a reasonable estimate, and it goes through the separate damage and insurance process.
- 03A team to turn toCall 1300 009 363, Monday to Saturday, 9 to 5, or get help online. You pay after your clean, and cancellation is free up to 24 hours before.
Care & Cover isn't an insurance policy, and conditions apply: a re-clean doesn't apply when a clean couldn't go ahead as booked, such as no access, water or power. Care & Cover, in full · Service terms

For this visit
01How much does end of lease cleaning cost in Sydney?
Our prices are the same in every city we serve, so a Sydney clean costs the same as one in Brisbane or Perth. You see the full itemised price online before you book. See Sydney cleaning prices.
02Does my apartment building need access booked first?
Usually, yes. Most Sydney strata buildings require the lift to be booked, and some limit service access to certain hours. Check with your building manager and add any loading-dock window to your booking notes.
03What do agents commonly check at the final inspection?
Ovens and grillers, shower screens and grout, window tracks, rangehood filters and the inside of cupboards and drawers come up often, and all of them are on our end of lease checklist. Check your own exit checklist too.
04Can you clean on the day my lease ends?
Sometimes, depending on availability for your date. Book the clean for after the removalists have finished, and leave time before the inspection if you can.
05Does a professional clean guarantee my bond back?
No. We stand behind the clean: report anything on our checklist within 48 hours and an eligible re-clean is completed within seven business days of the original clean. A bond claim can also cover rent, damage and other matters outside cleaning, and it’s decided against your condition report. Read the Care & Cover terms.
06Is carpet steam cleaning included?
Not in the base price. Vacuuming is included, and carpet steam cleaning is a separately selected extra: choose your carpeted rooms in booking, or book it on its own. If your lease or a pet condition asks for a professional carpet clean, keep the receipt for your property manager.
07Can I book this before moving into a home?
Yes. A move-in clean is the same package, booked for an empty home after you get the keys and before the furniture arrives.
08Are your cleaners insured?
Yes. Every cleaner is identity-verified before their first clean, and our service terms describe up to $10 million in public liability insurance through Chubb Insurance Australia. If something is damaged, send us a photo and a reasonable estimate within 48 hours and it goes through our damage and insurance process. Care & Cover, in full.
SYDNEY · LOCAL SCOPE
What an exit clean involves in Sydney
Sydney's rental stock pulls in two directions and an exit clean has to handle both. Inner-ring apartments in Surry Hills, Redfern and Zetland mean strata rules, shared bin rooms and balcony glass that carries road grime, plus building access that has to be booked with the strata manager before a bond clean can even start. Out through the Inner West and the Eastern Suburbs you hit Federation terraces and semis: original floorboards, deep skirting, picture rails, sash windows with painted-shut tracks, and the tiled hearths and ceiling roses that agents notice precisely because they are original. Western Sydney and the Hills bring larger free-standing homes where garages, flyscreens and second bathrooms carry most of the work. Tell us about the layout and anything unusual when you book, because a two-bedroom terrace and a two-bedroom apartment can be different jobs.
Before your end of lease clean: the moving-day list
A smoother handover
starts here.
A few practical things to organise while we take care of the cleaning list.
Read the moving checklist- Book around your move
Choose a date after the removalists and before the inspection. Leave time for any cleaning follow-up before you hand back the keys.
- Empty the property
Remove belongings, rubbish and furniture. Empty cupboards and wardrobes, and prepare any appliances included in the clean.
- Arrange access and utilities
Keep water and electricity connected. Add entry instructions and parking details, and share any agent checklist with the team.
- Check the agreed scope
Confirm carpet steam cleaning or specialist work separately. Tell us about areas needing extra attention before the visit.
An empty-home clean works best when access and utilities are arranged. If carpet extraction is booked, plan drying separately. Cleaning does not guarantee a bond result.
Read the illustration as text
- Belongings out
- Have the booked rooms accessible before the cleaner arrives.
- Access and utilities ready
- Arrange keys, working water and electricity for the visit.
- Check before handover
- Allow time to inspect the result and report any concerns.
Keep removal, cleaning and inspection as separate steps.
IF SOMETHING IS MISSED
How our re-clean works, step by step
Tell us within 48 hours of the clean finishing. That is the reporting window, not when we come back: an eligible re-clean is then arranged at no charge and, under our terms, completed within seven business days of the original clean.
1. Report it within 48 hours
Send your booking details and the areas that need attention. Photos and your agent’s notes help, and we may ask for them.
2. We check it against your booking
The team compares what you raise with the checklist you booked.
3. We come back to fix it
For an eligible issue, we re-clean those areas at no extra cost, within seven business days of the original clean.
4. Still not right?
We review it again and provide a fair credit or refund, as the terms set out.
What it doesn’t cover
Work outside the checklist you booked, or a clean that couldn’t be finished because there was no access, power or water. And no cleaner can promise your bond back: a claim can also cover rent, damage and other matters, decided against your condition report.
NSW · YOUR BOND
What NSW rules ask for when you move out
In NSW, the standard lease asks renters to leave the home reasonably clean, having regard to its condition when the tenancy started, with fair wear and tear excepted. Your bond is held through Rental Bonds Online, and the ingoing condition report is the benchmark.
Professional cleaning, the exit condition report, bond claims and disputes in NSW are covered in our guide to moving out of a rental in NSW.

How long does an end of lease clean take?
A team of two shares that time, so they’re on site for about half as long. A heavily used oven, extras and a larger home take longer, and the booking allows for them.
Booked times are shown in booking for your home.
