Professional Services for End of Lease, Bond Return, Vacate, and Lease Completion Cleaning
End of lease, bond, vacate and lease end cleaning are one service: a full clean of your rental, to our checklist, before you hand back the keys.
Moving out of a Melton house: rooms, garage and bathroom mould
Most Melton renters are leaving a house, not a unit. At the ABS 2021 Census, Melton (Vic.) had 3,024 occupied private dwellings: 2,518 separate houses (83.3%), 500 semi-detached homes and townhouses (16.5%) and just 3 flats or apartments. Of those homes, 1,039 (34.4%) were rented, and 759 of the rentals were managed through a real estate agent.
Cleaning a whole house before the inspection
A house with a garage and laundry simply has more to cover at the end of a lease than a small unit, so it pays to know what the checklist handles and what stays with you.
- The garage is swept and cobwebs are cleared.
- Window frame tracks are cleaned inside, along with glass surfaces and mirrors.
- The laundry gets its benches wiped, sinks and taps dry buffed and the floor vacuumed and mopped.
- Sheds, gardens and other outdoor areas are not in the standard checklist. Check your condition report for what is expected and clear outdoor rubbish before the clean.
Clearing out the garage first? Melton’s hard rubbish rules, tips and skip permits are in our Melton cleaning and moving guide.
Mould and condensation in a rental
Consumer Affairs Victoria says the law doesn’t always say who is responsible for mould. Where the rental agreement is silent, it can depend on who contributed to the problem: a renter may be responsible if, for example, mould formed because they didn’t use the bathroom ventilation fan, while the rental provider may be responsible if a property fault, such as a faulty window frame letting rain in, caused it. Renters should tell the rental provider straight away if they see mould or rising damp.
In the weeks before you move out, running the exhaust fan during and after showers and opening a window when you can helps keep condensation down. Our end of lease clean includes mould removal in the bathroom and the exhaust fan exterior; ceiling mould is not included.

Melton's water supply and getting the bathroom inspection-ready
Greater Western Water supplies Melton. Its 2024–25 Drinking Water Quality Report says Melton and Melton South have been supplied with Melbourne water since June 2016. For the Melton South sampling area it records hardness at an average of 17 mg/L as calcium carbonate (13 to 20 mg/L across 67 samples), against a guideline value of 200 mg/L.
Whatever comes out of the tap, a bathroom used for a whole tenancy builds up a film of soap, shampoo and body wash on glass, grout and chrome. A dull shower screen or spotty tapware is easy to see at a final inspection, so the bathroom gets close attention in every end of lease clean.
What our bathroom clean covers
- Shower and bath, including tiles and screens
- Vanity, drawers and cabinets cleaned inside and out
- Sinks and taps cleaned and dry buffed
- Mirrors and other glass surfaces
- Mould removal (ceiling mould not included)
- Toilet, exhaust fan exterior and floors
In the weeks before you leave, a quick squeegee of the screen after each shower and a dry cloth over the taps keeps the build-up down. Keep the water and power connected until the clean is finished, because our cleaners need both. Leave the deep clean to us, and use our moving-out and rental bond guide for the rest of your list. Every clean comes with our Bond Back Guarantee: let us know within 72 hours of your clean. Terms apply.

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 Melton, the council says hard waste wait times may be longer than usual because of demand, so book as soon as you know your moving date.

End of Lease Cleaning Services Frequently Asked Questions
Who is responsible for mould in a Melton rental?
It depends. Consumer Affairs Victoria says that where the rental agreement doesn’t say, responsibility can depend on who contributed to the problem, for example a renter not using the bathroom fan, or a property fault the rental provider hasn’t fixed. If the two sides can’t agree who pays, either can apply to VCAT. Read pests, infestations and mould for the details. Our end of lease clean covers bathroom mould removal, but not ceiling mould.
Is bond cleaning in Melton the same as end of lease cleaning?
Yes. Bond cleaning, vacate cleaning and end of lease cleaning are different names for the same job: a full clean of the property before you hand back the keys. You get the same checklist whichever name you search for, and our rental bond guide explains how refunds work in Victoria.
Does end of lease cleaning in Melton include curtains or blinds?
Curtains and blinds are not part of our standard end of lease inclusions, which cover every room, the kitchen and oven, bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry and garage. Check your lease and condition report for what is expected, and call 1300 280 576 to ask what can be added to your booking.
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?

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 Melton.
