How to hire a end of tenancy cleaning pro in Australia
- Check your state's condition report rules — bonds are held by state authorities (RTBA in Victoria, NSW Fair Trading, RTA in Queensland), not the landlord
- Book a cleaner who works to the REI/agency bond-clean checklist for your state
- Confirm a bond-back re-clean guarantee (72 hours is standard) in writing
- Include oven, range hood, and tracks/screens — the classic bond-deduction items
- If your lease was pet-approved, check whether flea treatment and carpet steam cleaning are required clauses
- Keep the invoice; bond claims are arbitrated by the state tribunal (VCAT, NCAT, QCAT) against the entry condition report
Rental bonds are lodged with state government authorities and disputes go to state tribunals, which compare exit condition against the entry condition report. Leases commonly require carpet steam cleaning and pest treatment only where specific conditions (e.g. pets) apply.

Frequently asked questions
Is end of tenancy cleaning guaranteed?
Reputable companies offer a re-clean guarantee, usually 48-72 hours, meaning they return free of charge if the landlord or agent flags missed areas at checkout. Always confirm the guarantee window in writing before booking.
Do cleaners bring their own equipment for a move-out clean?
Yes. End of tenancy crews arrive with professional products, oven-cleaning chemicals, and often steam or hot-water extraction machines. You only need to provide access, power, and running water.
How long does an end of tenancy clean take?
A one-bedroom flat typically takes a two-person team 3-5 hours. A three-bedroom house can take 6-10 hours or a larger crew. The property should be empty of furniture and belongings for the fastest result.
Should carpets be professionally cleaned at move-out?
If the carpets were professionally cleaned before you moved in, or your lease requires it, yes — keep the receipt. Otherwise vacuuming plus spot-cleaning to match the move-in condition is generally enough.
What is included in an end of tenancy clean?
A full top-to-bottom clean of the empty property: inside the oven and appliances, inside cupboards, limescale removal, skirting boards, windows inside, and a deep clean of the bathroom and kitchen. Carpet steam cleaning is usually a paid extra.
How much does end of tenancy cleaning cost in Darwin?
Prices in Darwin depend on the size and condition of the property. Studios and one-bed flats sit at the low end, while three-bed houses with carpets and a neglected oven cost several times more. Get an itemised quote that states rooms, oven, and carpets separately.
Can I do the end of tenancy clean myself?
Legally yes in most markets — you are obliged to meet a cleanliness standard, not to hire a company. In practice, ovens, limescale, and carpet stains are where DIY cleans fail checkout inspections, so budget serious time and proper products if you go that route.
Is carpet steam cleaning mandatory at end of lease in Australia?
Not automatically. Blanket 'must steam clean' clauses are generally unenforceable unless justified — for example a pet clause, or carpets professionally cleaned at entry. You must return carpets to their documented entry condition, so check the entry condition report first.
