  • Weekly, fortnightly or monthly
  • Save up to 15% on regular bookings

Questions About Our Cleaning Checklist

What's the difference between general and end of lease cleaning?
The main differences are interior windows, inside oven, rangehood, and inside cupboards — all included as standard in end of lease cleaning but not in a general or regular clean. End of lease cleaning also includes spot clean walls (15 minutes free), is backed by our 100% bond back guarantee, and is priced higher to reflect the additional scope and responsibility.
Can I share this checklist with my property manager?
Absolutely — and we encourage it. Download the PDF version of this checklist and share it with your property manager or real estate agent before your final inspection. It clearly demonstrates the professional cleaning standard that has been arranged and aligns expectations. Many Sydney agents recognise our end of lease standard as meeting inspection requirements.
Is carpet cleaning on the checklist?
Carpet steam cleaning is not included in the standard cleaning checklist for any service — it's available as an optional add-on. For a standard booking it's $60 per room, and when combined with an end of lease clean it's discounted to $40 per room. We strongly recommend adding carpet cleaning to end of lease bookings as carpet condition is one of the most common points of inspection. Learn about our carpet cleaning →
Are the items marked "included" in end of lease really free?
Yes — items marked with the green tick in the end of lease column are included in the standard end of lease price at no additional charge. This includes interior windows, inside oven, rangehood cleaning, inside cupboards, and spot clean walls (15 minutes). These are not add-ons for our end of lease service — they are part of the standard service that most other Sydney companies charge extra for.
Does the deep clean include everything the end of lease covers?
A deep clean covers most of the same intensive areas — inside oven, rangehood, inside cupboards, grout scrubbing, descaling — but interior windows and spot clean walls are not included as standard (they're available as add-ons). The end of lease service also comes with the bond back guarantee and 72-hour free re-clean commitment, which are specific to the vacate cleaning context. If you're not moving out, a deep clean delivers similar intensive results at a lower price.
Can I request items from the checklist as specific instructions?
Yes. When booking, you can note any specific areas you'd like particular attention paid to. Our cleaners follow the standard checklist as a minimum, and you can always flag priorities at booking or when the team arrives. If you need items beyond your booked service scope, we can discuss adding them as paid add-ons.
