How Much Does Bond Cleaning Cost?
Prices depend on your location, the size and condition of the property and any extras such as carpet steam cleaning.
Why Is Lease End Cleaning Important?
In the ACT, the condition you leave the property in decides how smoothly your bond is refunded. Here’s why a thorough end of lease clean matters.
Get your bond back: In the ACT, your bond can’t be more than four weeks’ rent and it’s lodged with the ACT Revenue Office, not kept by your landlord. When the tenancy ends, you or your landlord can request a refund from the ACT Revenue Office. If the property isn’t returned in the state recorded at the start of the lease, the landlord can claim part of the bond.
Keep a good rental history: A clean handover shows you’ve cared for the home, which helps when you need a reference from your agent or landlord for your next rental.
Meet your obligations: In the ACT, the property should be returned in the same state of cleanliness and repair as at the beginning of the lease, with some wear and tear excepted. You and your landlord carry out a final inspection together, checking the property against the condition report signed when you moved in. If you don’t agree with a claim on your bond, the dispute can be referred to the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal (ACAT).
Health and safety: Clearing grease, soap scum and mould from kitchens and bathrooms leaves the home hygienic for whoever moves in next.
A careful end of lease clean protects your bond, supports your rental history and leaves the property ready for the next tenant.
Before booking, check your rental agreement for any cleaning terms and compare the home with your entry condition report, which is what the final inspection is checked against. If the property needs a professional clean, arranging it before you return the keys is usually easier than disputing a bond claim later.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to common questions about end of lease cleaning. Can’t find what you need? Visit our FAQ page or email [email protected].
Frequently Asked Questions
What does an lease end cleaning include?
A lease end cleaning typically includes a thorough cleaning of the entire property, including the bathrooms, kitchen, floors, walls, and windows. This may also include carpet cleaning and steam cleaning, if applicable.
How long does lease end cleaning take?
The time it takes to complete end of lease cleaning can vary depending on the size of the property and the level of cleaning required. On average, end of lease cleaning can take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours or more.
What if my landlord is not satisfied with the cleaning?
If your landlord is not satisfied with the end of lease cleaning, they may withhold part or all of your security deposit to cover the cost of cleaning. That’s why our end-of-lease cleans come with a bond-back guarantee: if a cleaning issue is reported within 72 hours, we return to re-clean the affected areas at no extra cost. Terms and conditions apply.
Do I need to be present during end of lease cleaning?
You do not necessarily need to be present during cleaning, but if you chose to, you can be there at the beginning and end of the cleaning to ensure that everything is completed to your satisfaction.
Is professional carpet cleaning required for end of lease cleaning?
Not always. In the ACT you don’t have to use professional cleaners at the end of a tenancy. Professional carpet cleaning can only be required if your lease says so and your landlord can show the carpets were professionally cleaned at the start of the tenancy (ACT Government, The Renting Book). Check your lease and ingoing condition report; we can add carpet steam cleaning to your booking if you need it.
Do I need to provide cleaning supplies for end of lease cleaning?
Not at all. Our cleaners carry all the cleaning supplies and equipment. However, if you wish for certain cleaning agents to be used for cleaning (like, if the house is on the septic system), you need to provide this information beforehand.
How far in advance should I book an exit cleaning service?
It is recommended to book an end of lease cleaning service at least two weeks in advance to ensure that you get a reliable and experienced cleaning company and to allow time for any necessary preparations. However, we can provide EOL cleaning service on an urgent notice as well, even on Sundays and Public Holidays.
Should I clean the property before the end of lease cleaning service arrives?
It is not necessary to clean the property before the end of lease cleaning service arrives, but it is recommended to clear out any personal belongings and clutter to ensure that the cleaners have easy access to all areas of the property.
Is key pickup service included in the lease cleaning service?
Key pickup service is not included in the lease cleaning service. It is an additional service that we offer for an extra fee. However, if the location of the property is nearby the location for Key pickup, we may do it for free.
What is the benefit of using a key pickup service?
Using a key pickup service saves you time and hassle, as you do not need to arrange to collect and return the keys yourself. It also ensures that the cleaning company has easy access to the property, allowing them to complete the cleaning quickly and efficiently.
