House Cleaning in Logan City

Commonly excluded: exterior windows, inside the oven and fridge, laundry and ironing, dishes, wet-wiping walls, mould remediation, cleaning up after pests, biohazards, and anything requiring a ladder. These are add-ons or specialist jobs. Always get the inclusion list in writing so the visit matches your expectations.

Ask: Are you insured, and for how much? Who exactly will clean my home — same person each visit? What's on your standard task list, and what's excluded? Do you bring supplies? What's your policy on damage, rescheduling and cancellation? How do you handle keys? Providers who answer these crisply are almost always the better operators.

Key-holding is standard for recurring cleans, but do it deliberately: use a lockbox or smart lock where possible, get key-holding terms in writing (companies usually have a policy), and check the cleaner or company carries insurance that covers key loss and lock replacement. Change codes when you change providers.

Three reasons: insurance and legitimate employment cost real money (the cheapest quotes usually skip both), companies price in supervision and cover for sick days, and scope assumptions differ — one quote's 'clean' may exclude half of what another includes. Compare on a written task list, insurance status and the same visit frequency, not on the headline number.

A bond (end-of-lease) clean is a top-to-bottom clean of an empty property against the agent's inspection checklist — ovens, tracks, walls, sometimes carpets — and typically costs several times a regular visit. Good bond cleaners offer a re-clean guarantee if the agent flags items. Don't book a standard clean and expect your bond back.

Expect roughly $35-$60 per hour, with platform-booked independents from about $28-$45 and companies toward the top of the range. A basic 2-hour clean of a 3-bedroom home commonly lands between $70 and $140 depending on city and condition.
