Often grout, toilets and plastics can discolor (often into a yellow colour) over time and they can’t be returned to their original colour without specialist intervention.

Will I Have To Leave The Property During Cleaning?

Yes, we can assure thorough cleaning only when the house or office is vacant. Since the end of lease cleaning is required at the time of moving out of the property, it is best to move out all the furniture and then get it cleaned. This way, we will get an open space without any hindrance and interference to complete the task. If the rented space is filled with bulky furniture and the fixtures are stuffed with your belongings, it would not be possible for us to clean the property. Thus you must book the removalists first to get the stuff transported before the arrival of the end of lease cleaners in Melbourne. Also, moving all the furniture and luggage out will help in bringing the hidden dust to the surface which can be effectively wiped out. After moving the furniture, you can choose to stay or leave the property. We will call you once we are finished with the cleaning to examine our work. However, if you plan to stay, then make sure that there are no kids and pets in the house as they can disrupt the cleaning process or get hurt. If you are busy on that day with the relocation, then you can leave the keys at a safe place. Our cleaners will pick them up and put them back once they are done with the assigned task. You can trust our professionals without thinking twice as they are police verified and fully insured. Thus, you can stop worrying about the fixtures and leave the property unsupervised if you want.

What Is End of Lease Cleaning?

End of lease cleaning is the thorough cleaning of the rented property at the end of the tenancy to get the bond back.
The deep cleaning brings the house back to the condition in which it was at the time of moving in, barring fair wear and tear.
Most homes accumulate dust, grime, grunge and oil stains over the period of tenancy, which stay hidden behind the furniture and other belongings. It makes the space unhygienic and challenging to clean on your own.
Professional end of lease cleaners in Melbourne pay special attention to getting rid of all the dirt and germs from the premises.
Our cleaners are well-versed in the task and start from the top making their way to the bottom for a thorough clean-up.
They clean the cobwebs from the ceilings, remove the dust from the doors, cabinets and drawers.
They clean the walls and windows and polish the doorknobs and cabinet handles. We utilise organic solutions to clean the surfaces.
The natural cleaners ensure that the house is devoid of toxins and ready for leasing. We remove all the tough stains and marks from the walls, windows, tiles, glass doors, etc.
We meticulously clean the oven, air conditioner, range hood to remove all the grime and grunge from the interiors and the racks.
We do not miss the spaces behind the dishwasher and the oven which are the hiding spots for dust and dirt. We clean the sink, faucets and the drain hole. The entire house is cleaned to make it shine up like new.

What Is Bond Back Guarantee Cleaning?

We offer a bond back guarantee for seven days (Ts and Cs apply), which means that our cleaners will leave no stone unturned in offering deep cleaning of the property. If you find any unclean spots or stains, which have not been cleaned thoroughly, then we will come back for a free reclean within 72 hours. However, we do not ever give our clients a chance to feel dissatisfied with our work. Our 100% service guarantee makes sure that you get complete value for money and your bond back. Thus, you can let go of all the worries related to your deposit and stay calm throughout the moving out process. Our bond back guarantee cleaning helps you to concentrate on other important chores while we take care of the cleaning. The assurance showcases our professional approach and prioritisation of customer satisfaction. If you have additional needs, then we can accommodate them in our checklist and provide you with the final pricing upfront. We offer a complete makeover of the property, which includes windows, walls, cupboards, fixtures and appliances like air conditioners and range hood. You can count on us if you do not have the time and energy to uplift the appearance of your rented place at the end of the tenancy.

Do You Clean Windows As Well?

Yes, of course. Our end of lease cleaning includes window cleaning from both inside and outside if they are accessible. However, we do not operate on heights as it can be dangerous for our cleaners. Thus if your property is located on the second or third floor and needs a ladder for window cleaning, then we will not be able to clean them from outside. We do not work on heights and in dangerous areas. If the windows are accessible without any support from outside, then we will happily and meticulously get them cleaned. Our professionals clean all the dust and then wash the windows with an organic glass cleaning solution. They make sure not to cause scratching or grazing of the glass. They windows are then wiped with a dry microfibre cloth which helps in removing any leftover water droplets or soap. We dust the blinds as well and vacuum them to bring back their lost shine. We do not forget the windowsills which are usually filled with dirt and dust bunnies. Our cleaners pay special attention to the cleaning of the hinges and the lock which have a lot of dirty fingerprints. Thus we offer a flawless cleaning of the windows if we can reach them.
