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 an end of lease clean in Kensington in the same booking. Moving out? See moving out and claiming your rental bond.

What is Steam Cleaning Carpet?
Steam cleaning is a popular method for removing dirt and stains from carpets. It involves the use of hot water and steam to loosen debris, which is then extracted with powerful suction machines. The process begins with pre-treatment of any heavily soiled or stained areas using specialized detergents. Then hot water, usually above 200 degrees Fahrenheit, mixed with cleaning agents is sprayed onto the surface which breaks down stubborn dirt buried deep in fibers .After this step ,the remaining moisture including all traces of soap are removed by an incredibly strong vacuum system resulting in clean and sanitised carpeting flooring that looks like new again!

Renting in Kensington: condition reports, pets and the carpet
If you rent, the condition report is the record your carpet is compared with. Under Consumer Affairs Victoria’s condition report rules, the rental provider or agent must sign it and give you two copies, or one electronic copy, before you move in. Anything unclean, damaged or not working should be in it. You check it, add your own comments where it’s wrong, and return a signed copy within 5 business days of moving in, keeping one yourself. If you weren’t given one, you can complete your own and hand it over within the same 5 business days. Dated, labelled photos can be attached, and either side can apply to VCAT within 30 days of the start of the agreement if they think the report is wrong or incomplete.
When the agreement ends, the rental provider or agent must complete the exit condition report within 10 days, with you present or given a reasonable opportunity to be there. The condition report can support a bond claim where there’s new damage beyond normal wear and tear, new repairs are needed, items are missing or the property needs further cleaning, but the rental provider must give you evidence such as an invoice, receipt, quote or photos at least 3 business days before making the claim. Book the carpet clean before that exit inspection, and look over the entry report’s notes for each room first.
Keeping a dog or cat? A rental provider can try to negotiate conditions for keeping a pet, such as the pet not being allowed inside, and any agreed conditions should be in writing. If you don’t agree and they want the pet excluded, they must apply to VCAT. Pet or no pet, every renter is responsible for keeping the property clean and avoiding damage. Mention pet stains or recent spills in the booking form’s instructions field.
We also clean carpets in North Melbourne, West Melbourne and Footscray, which all share a boundary with Kensington. Every service for the suburb is on our Kensington cleaning page, and the process is on our carpet cleaning page.

How to clean carpets
Carpets require regular cleaning to maintain their appearance and extend their lifespan. To begin, vacuum the carpet thoroughly to remove loose dirt and dust. Next, pre-treat any stains or spots with a carpet cleaner or a mixture of water and vinegar. Use a deep-cleaning machine to shampoo the carpet, following the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Ensure proper ventilation during this process to aid in drying time. Afterward, fluff up the fibers by brushing them with a soft-bristled brush or using the machine’s attachment meant for grooming carpets. A clean carpet will not only look better but also improve indoor air quality since it traps allergens and pollutants otherwise airborne.
