Renting a townhouse or unit in Blackburn: planning the end of lease clean
At the ABS 2021 Census, 1,440 of the suburb’s occupied homes were rented.
What that means for your clean
- Priced on size: the booking form shows the estimated time and price from your bedrooms and bathrooms, so a two-bedroom unit and a larger house each see their own figure before you book.
- Shared driveways and visitor parking: in a unit or townhouse complex, put the gate code and where the cleaner can park in the booking form’s instructions field.
- Garage: if your lease includes one, the checklist covers a sweep and cobweb removal; a fuller garage clean-up can be added as an extra.
- Balcony: a flat’s balcony isn’t on the standard checklist, so add balcony cleaning when you book if your condition report lists it.

Tap water hardness and bushfire prone areas in Blackburn: two checks before the inspection
Blackburn's tap water hardness
Blackburn (postcode 3130) sits in Yarra Valley Water’s Mitcham water sampling area. The Yarra Valley Water 2025–26 Drinking Water Quality Report recorded hardness between 15 and 17 mg/L across four quarterly samples there, a mean of 17 mg/L, against a guideline mean of no more than 200 mg/L. The report describes hardness as calcium and magnesium salts that can attach to surfaces as a hard, flaky scale and make it harder to get a lather from soap.
Whatever has built up on the shower screen, tiles and taps during your lease, all three are on our bathroom checklist, and the laundry sink and taps are covered too.
Parts of Blackburn are in a bushfire prone area
The Victorian Government’s Designated Bushfire Prone Area map includes parts of Blackburn, within the Whitehorse bushfire prone area.
We also clean in other suburbs. See end of lease cleaning in Box Hill, end of lease cleaning in Nunawading, end of lease cleaning in Mitcham and end of lease cleaning in Vermont. For the paperwork side of moving out, read our moving-out and rental bond guide.

Below are answers to common questions about end-of-lease cleaning. For more, visit our FAQ page or email [email protected].
Rubbish and unwanted items before you move out
Arrange removal of rubbish and unwanted furniture before your end of lease clean and key handover. In Whitehorse, hard waste booked by 5 pm Wednesday is collected the following week, and it may take longer in busy times.

Getting your bond back in Blackburn
- Refund: Victorian bonds are held by the Residential Tenancies Bond Authority (RTBA). When you and your rental provider agree, the RTBA usually repays the bond within one business day.
- Evidence that helps: your entry condition report, the final inspection and dated photos taken when you leave.

End of Lease Cleaning Services Frequently Asked Questions
Does Blackburn have hard water?
Not by the utility’s figures. Yarra Valley Water’s 2025–26 report shows a mean hardness of 17 mg/L in the Mitcham sampling area that includes Blackburn, well under its 200 mg/L guideline. Shower screens, tiles and taps are on our bathroom checklist either way.
Do you do end of lease cleaning for townhouses and units in Blackburn?
Yes. Townhouses, units and houses all follow the same end of lease checklist, and the booking form prices the clean from your bedrooms and bathrooms. Add extras such as balcony cleaning, carpet steam cleaning or a garage clean-up when you book end of lease cleaning in Melbourne. With our Bond Back Guarantee, let us know within 72 hours of your clean if anything was missed. Terms apply.
Is Blackburn in a bushfire prone area?
Parts of it are. The Victorian Government’s Designated Bushfire Prone Area map includes parts of Blackburn within the Whitehorse bushfire prone area, so check your own address on the official map. For the clean itself, inside window tracks and the split-system filter are both on our checklist.
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?
A 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom property starts from about 3 cleaning hours. Every home is different: larger homes, heavy build-up and extras such as carpet steam cleaning take longer. The booking form shows the estimated time and price for your property.
What if my agent spots something after the clean?
Let us know within 72 hours of your clean and we’ll come back and re-clean those areas free. Terms 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 Victoria a rental provider can only require professional cleaning in limited cases: if the property was professionally cleaned immediately before you moved in and you were told, or if it is needed to return the property to its condition at the start of the tenancy, allowing for fair wear and tear (Residential Tenancies Regulations 2021 (Vic), reg 12). Check your lease and 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.
How much is end of lease cleaning in Blackburn?
End of lease cleaning starts from $249.40 for a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom property. Use the estimator on this page for a guide, then see your price for your address when you book online.
Can you clean before the final inspection in Blackburn?
Yes. An end of lease clean is the clean before your final inspection. Book it after your furniture is out and as close to the inspection as your moving plans allow.
Do I need a parking permit for the removal truck in Blackburn?
Whitehorse’s Service Residential Parking Permit gives short-term exemptions (up to a month) from timed restrictions for residents on restricted streets, with quotes or receipts as evidence; the page doesn’t mention removalists by name. See moving day in Blackburn for skips and storage pods.

Before your final inspection
In Victoria, renters must leave the property reasonably clean, with fair wear and tear excepted, and the condition report from the start of the agreement is the reference. Since 29 March 2021 a rental provider can only require professional cleaning at the end of the tenancy if the property was professionally cleaned immediately before you moved in and you were told, or if it is needed to return the property to its condition at the start, allowing for fair wear and tear. Carpet steam cleaning can be added to your end of lease clean in the same booking: see carpet cleaning in Blackburn.
