Gold Coast bond cleaning prices
Bond cleaning prices on the Gold Coast 2026
Quick answer: A bond clean on the Gold Coast with Simply Maid costs $423 for a 1 bed, 1 bath home, $455 for 2 bed, 1 bath and $519 for 3 bed, 2 bath. Those are fixed prices including GST and the Care & Cover fee, for an empty home that has been kept on top of, with the oven, inside cupboards and interior windows included. A home that needs a proper reset adds up to $185; walls are wiped to remove marks, and full wall washing, a balcony, garage or blinds are extras, and carpet steam cleaning isn't offered. A home that needs more than a proper reset can add extra hours at $93 per cleaner-hour. The price is the same in every city we serve.

AUD, fixed, including GST and the Care & Cover fee, for an empty home with no extras or discount code. The oven, inside cupboards and interior windows are included. “Cleaner time booked” is the planning allowance for one cleaner, not a measured time: two cleaners share it and are on site for about half as long, at the same price. Homes larger than 5 bedrooms or 3 bathrooms are priced in booking. The price is the same in every city we serve.
Market check
What do Gold Coast companies charge for a bond clean?
Few Gold Coast companies publish a full price list: the three we could use put one bedroom at $299 to $335, two bedrooms at $329 to $400 and three bedrooms at $449 to $600, all before carpet steam cleaning.
The clearest is one Gold Coast company's online calculator: $550 for a 3 bed, 2 bath home including GST and a $15 booking fee, before carpets. Most of the Gold Coast pages that rank highest in search publish no price table at all, and several "Gold Coast" price pages are the same template table as a Brisbane site. One national brand's article says carpets are included while its booking form charges for them, so we read it with caution.
Gold Coast companies mention booking lifts in high-rise buildings and salt film on glass near the beach; none we found charged a lift surcharge.
End of lease clean. Of 12 published prices from 1 company for the same bedrooms and bathrooms as a home we price, 4 are lower than ours and 8 are higher. By their own pages, 1 company charges extra for the oven, which our end of lease clean includes. Also listed, not counted: 5 starting prices.
Market observation · what other providers publish

The span of prices providers publish for that many bedrooms, from the rows below: fixed prices, “from” prices and providers’ own calculators, not an average and not a quote for your home. Prices quoted without GST have the 10% added. Bathrooms, carpet steam cleaning and what is included differ between them, so compare the scope column before the totals. A size appears only when at least two providers publish a price for it.

Published prices read from each provider’s own website on 2 October 2026, as advertised, not quotes for a specific home. GST is shown only where the provider states it; an ex-GST price is compared with 10% added. A price is counted as lower or higher only when it is a stated price for the same bedrooms and bathrooms and is not a regular-visit rate. A page that doesn’t mention a task tells us nothing about whether it is included. Brisbane companies whose single price list also covers the Gold Coast, template sites and comparison guides are left out; see the Brisbane guide for those.
What does our price include?
The oven, range hood, inside cupboards and drawers, the dishwasher and interior windows and tracks are included; full wall washing, a balcony, the garage and blinds are extras. A home with some build-up costs $93 more, and one that needs a proper reset $185 more.
The checklist below is the one your cleaner works from. Our prices are the same in every city we serve, so the table at the top applies on the Gold Coast. For what the prices assume and how cleaner time works, see the national guide. For regular and deep cleaning on the Gold Coast, see Gold Coast cleaning prices.

What our Gold Coast bookings can and can't tell you
We have completed 3 bond cleans on the Gold Coast since 2018, too few to describe on their own, so this guide relies on Gold Coast companies' prices and labels any national figure as national.
From our booking records
What size homes do people book end of lease cleans for, nationally?
Across all seven cities, 72% of the end of lease cleans on our previous platform were one- or two-bedroom homes. That is a national figure, mostly from Sydney, not a Gold Coast one.
Simply Maid booking history · not today’s price
| Home | Bookings | Share |
|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | 433 | 25.2% |
| 2 bedrooms | 804 | 46.9% |
| 3 bedrooms | 294 | 17.1% |
| 4 bedrooms | 117 | 6.8% |
| 5 or more | 68 | 4.0% |
Completed move-in and move-out cleans on our previous booking platform, all seven cities, December 2015 to March 2025: 1,716 bookings from 1,604 customers. That platform sold one combined move-in/move-out clean, so the two can't be separated, and it didn't record whether a home was a unit or a house. Computed 2 October 2026.
What makes Gold Coast quotes differ?
Mostly scope and access: high-rise units need a lift booking and a park, and carpets, the balcony and glass are where Gold Coast quotes spread out.
High-rise access
Book the service lift if your building requires it and arrange visitor parking. We don't add parking costs, but the cleaner needs a way in at the booked time.
Balconies and glass
Balcony cleaning is an extra on our end of lease clean. We clean interior window glass and tracks; outside glass on upper floors isn't something we do.
Saying "bond clean"
Some renters on forums suggest that asking for a "bond clean" gets a higher quote. The fix is the same either way: ask for the tasks in writing and compare line by line.
For the full quote checklist, see how to compare two quotes fairly.
Is a professional bond clean required on the Gold Coast?
No. Queensland's rule is the same on the Gold Coast as in Brisbane: leave the home in the same condition as at the start, apart from fair wear and tear, and clean it yourself if you like.
- Receipts: the RTA says a lease term requiring a "professional" or a receipt breaches the Act.
- Who cleans: a lease can't make you use a particular cleaner or pay a set fee.
- Pets: a pet approval can require professional carpet cleaning, and fumigation for pets that can carry parasites. You choose who does it.
See the RTA on cleaning and special terms. The Brisbane bond cleaning guide covers the Queensland rules in more detail.
What if the agent says it isn't clean enough?
Ask for the evidence: the manager must give you supporting evidence within 14 days of a claim, you have 14 days to dispute it, and the RTA offers free dispute resolution before QCAT.
If something on our checklist was missed, tell us within 48 hours of the clean, with photos if you have them. We schedule a re-clean of those items at no cost, completed within seven business days of the original clean, and if it is still not right we give a fair credit or refund (terms). Book the clean a few days before the final inspection so there is time for that. It is a re-clean promise, not a bond guarantee: nobody can promise the outcome of a bond claim.
Gold Coast bond cleaning price questions
How much is a bond clean on the Gold Coast?
With Simply Maid, $423 for a 1 bed, 1 bath home, $455 for 2 bed, 1 bath and $519 for 3 bed, 2 bath, fixed and including GST, for an empty home kept reasonably clean.
How much is a bond clean for a 2 bedroom unit on the Gold Coast?
With us, $455 with one bathroom and $487 with two. The Gold Coast companies we found published $329 to $400 for two bedrooms, before carpets.
Do you clean outside windows on high-rise balconies?
No. We clean interior glass, tracks and frames. Balcony cleaning is an extra; exterior windows and anything above a two-step ladder aren't part of our service.
Does it cost more on a Saturday or in January?
No. Our price is the same on any day and in any month, and the same for a unit, townhouse or house. The only date-related charge is a same-day booking fee, which booking asks you to accept first.
How long does a bond clean take?
We book 4h 30m of cleaner time for a 1 bed, 1 bath home, 4h 50m for 2 bed, 1 bath and 5h 30m for 3 bed, 2 bath. Two cleaners share that time, so they are on site for about half as long; a home that needs a proper reset adds up to 2h, and extra hours can be added at $93 per cleaner-hour.
How we worked out these figures
Today's prices come from our live booking calculator, Gold Coast market prices from local companies' own websites (read 2 October 2026), and history from our completed bookings, each labelled where it appears.
Prices are read from the same calculator the booking form uses each time this page is shown; it has no location input, so they are the same in every city. Market prices are those Gold Coast companies publish on their own websites for end of lease cleans of 1 to 4 bedrooms; we leave out comparison guides, marketplace estimates, copied or network tables, pages dated before 2025 and prices that include carpet steam cleaning, and we never average the ends of a range. Booking history is from our previous platform (December 2015 to March 2025); a median needs 30 bookings from 20 customers and a share needs 30. The national guide sets out the method in full.
| Measure | Gold Coast | All seven cities |
|---|---|---|
| Completed cleans, current platform (since our current booking platform began in April 2026) | 1 | 208 |
| · Standard cleans | 1 | 115 |
| · Deep cleans | 0 | 83 |
| · End of lease cleans | 0 | 10 |
| Standard cleans since January 2021 (home sizes) | 28 | 22,158 |
