Local insight
Small households in flats set the tone in East Melbourne: about 74% of occupied homes were flats or apartments at the 2021 Census, households averaged 1.8 people, and 43% were one person living alone. Our customers here mostly kept to a clean every 4 weeks (55% of visits with a schedule), and 80% of our 55 cleans since 2018 were standard cleans, 53% of them for 2-bedroom homes. A one- or two-person flat builds up mess slowly, which suits that pace. The work came from 17 households, 2 of the cleans fell in the last 12 months, the latest in September 2026, and customers rated us 5 out of 5 across 14 ratings.

3 customer records include more than one completed visit out of 17 customer records with completed visits in East Melbourne.
These figures count bookings and feedback recorded for addresses in East Melbourne. Repeat visits count separately, so cleans are not homes. Frequency shares use all recorded completed visits with a recognised frequency, including older history; they do not measure current demand. Customer records use distinct customer identifiers within one suburb, not verified home addresses, and are never summed across suburbs. Checked 14 October 2026.
Customer feedback is the rating a customer gave after a clean: each counts once, low scores included. Earlier feedback used “bad”, “OK” or “good”; those count as 2, 3 and 5 stars, the same equivalents we have always used. Comments quoted for East Melbourne are published comments from customers who rated the clean 4 or 5 stars. The average includes every rating.
Google reviews are a separate source, shown as the Melbourne listing reports them, and are never averaged together with our customer feedback. Across all locations: 4.6 / 5 from 9,887 customer feedback ratings; 4.7 / 5 from 781 reviews on our 6 Google listings.
