MELBOURNE · LOCAL SCOPE

What an exit clean involves in Melbourne

Melbourne's housing stock is old in the inner suburbs and new on the fringe, and exit cleans differ sharply between them. Period homes through Carlton, Fitzroy, Brunswick and Northcote bring the details agents look for: ornate cornices, ceiling roses, deep skirtings, hydronic panel radiators, original hearths, and single-glazed sash windows whose tracks and putty lines collect years of dust. Southbank, Docklands and the CBD towers are the opposite problem, where the work concentrates in floor-to-ceiling glass, balcony sliders, European laundries stacked into a cupboard, and building access that has to be booked through the owners corporation. Out through the eastern and western growth corridors you get larger newer homes where the volume is in second bathrooms, walk-in robes, flyscreens and double garages. Melbourne's damp winters also make bathroom and window-reveal mould a far more common inspection flag here than in Perth or Brisbane.

End of Lease Clean FAQs — Melbourne

Do you guarantee my bond back in Melbourne?

We guarantee the clean. If your rental provider or agent flags anything within our scope in the 48 hours after the clean, we come back and re-clean it free. We do not guarantee the bond itself, because RTBA claims can also cover rent arrears, damage or gardening. Treat any company that guarantees your entire bond with caution.

How much does end of lease cleaning cost in Melbourne?

You get the full price online before booking, based on property size and condition, with no in-home quote required. Pricing does not vary by city, so a Melbourne exit clean costs the same as the equivalent job in Sydney or Adelaide. Optional extras appear as separate line items.

Do you clean period features in Melbourne homes?

Yes. Cornices, ceiling roses, picture rails, deep skirtings and original hearths are included in the exit clean, and they matter here because inner-Melbourne agents inspect them closely on Victorian and Edwardian properties. Tell us at booking if the property has hydronic radiators or open fireplaces so we can allow time for them.

Can you remove bathroom mould before my final inspection?

We treat surface mould on tiles, grout, silicone and window reveals as part of the exit clean, and Melbourne's winters make this one of the most common flags we see. What we cannot fix is mould caused by a building fault such as failed sealing or inadequate ventilation, which is a repair issue for the rental provider rather than a cleaning one. We will tell you plainly if that is what we find.

Do apartment buildings need lift access booked?

Most Melbourne towers do. Owners corporations for Southbank, Docklands and CBD buildings commonly require the service lift to be booked in advance and restrict hours. Confirm the window with your building manager when you book so the clean is not delayed.
