Bond Back Cleaning That Helps You Get Your Full Bond Returned
What is bond back cleaning?
Bond back cleaning (also called end of lease cleaning, vacate cleaning, or exit cleaning) is a detailed move-out clean completed before you return the keys. It goes beyond routine cleaning and focuses on the areas that are commonly checked at inspection.
The goal is to leave the property clean and presentable for the next tenant, so cleaning-related bond deductions are less likely.
Who is this service for?
Our Bond Back Cleaning is ideal for:
- Tenants and renters moving out of apartments, houses, or townhouses
- Busy professionals and families with limited time before moving day
- Students and share houses needing a clear, checklist-based clean
- Landlords and property investors preparing a rental for new tenants
- Property managers and real estate agents needing a reliable cleaning team
If you’re unsure what standard is required, we’ll guide you based on your property and lease needs.

Real Estate Agent Bond Cleaning Checklist
What agents look for
At the final inspection, agents usually check for a home that looks clean, well-maintained, and ready for the next tenant. They focus on the areas that show build-up the fastest and are easiest to spot.
Agents typically look for:
- No visible dust on skirting boards, shelves, and window ledges
- No grease build-up in the kitchen, especially around cooking areas
- Bathrooms free of soap scum, mould, water marks, and limescale
- Floors properly vacuumed and mopped, including edges and corners
- Glass and high-touch areas are clean and streak-free, with marks removed from doors and switches
These details can seem small, but they often trigger cleaning deductions or a request for a re-clean.
Room-by-room checklist
Below is a simplified version of our bond back cleaning checklist, covering the areas most commonly inspected by agents.
- Kitchen: degreasing cooking areas, cleaning surfaces, cupboards, sink, and floors
- Bathrooms & laundry: shower screens, toilets, vanities, taps, and floors
- Bedrooms & living areas: dusting, skirting boards, doors, switches, and vacuuming
- Whole property: cobweb removal, high and low dusting, and final presentation check
Our Bond Back Guarantee
We know how important your bond money is. That’s why we back our service with a 100% bond back guarantee.
Re-clean policy
If your agent provides a checklist of cleaning items that need attention, we can return and complete a re-clean where applicable (based on the service booked and conditions).
Photo Proof & Inspection-Ready Results
We leave your property inspection-ready and, on request, can provide photos of key completed areas for added peace of mind, especially if you’re handing keys back remotely.
Our Bond Cleaning Process
Request a quote
Call us or request a quote online. We’ll confirm a few key details about the property, condition, and any special requirements to price the clean accurately and schedule it properly. Once confirmed, we’ll provide a clear quote and lock in your booking.
We clean to inspection standard
Our team arrives with professional products and equipment and cleans using a detailed checklist approach. We work systematically room-by-room to meet real estate standards.
Final checks + handover
Before we finish, we do a final walkthrough and quality check. If needed, we can provide notes or confirmation to support your final inspection.
Pricing & Quotes
Bond cleaning prices depend on the size and condition of the property, plus any additional services required.
Your quote may vary based on:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- How long you lived in the property
- Build-up of grease, mould, dust, or pet hair
- Add-ons (carpet steam cleaning, windows, extra detailing)
This approach reduces re-clean requests and ensures a smoother handover, so you can leave with confidence knowing the property meets inspection standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer a 100% bond back guarantee?
Yes. Our bond back cleaning comes with a 100% bond back guarantee for extra peace of mind. We clean to inspection standard and support you if your property manager requests cleaning-related touch-ups after the final inspection.
It’s worth noting that under Consumer Affairs Victoria guidelines on ending a lease, tenants are responsible for returning the property in a reasonably clean condition, which is why professional bond cleaning can help reduce the risk of bond deductions.
Do you offer same-day bond back cleaning in Melbourne?
In many cases, yes. Same-day bookings depend on availability and your location. If you’re moving out urgently, contact us early. We’ll confirm your timeframe, recommend the best service option, and book the earliest slot possible.
Do I need to be home during the bond clean?
No, you don’t. Many clients provide keys, a lockbox code, or access instructions. Our team can clean while you’re at work or moving. We’ll coordinate access and update you once the job is completed.
What happens if my agent requests extra cleaning after inspection?
If your agent requests cleaning-related corrections, contact us and share the feedback. Our bond back guarantee includes support for touch-ups where needed, helping you resolve inspection issues quickly and avoid unnecessary bond deductions.
Do you bring your own equipment and cleaning products?
Yes. Our team arrives fully equipped with professional products and tools to complete the service efficiently. If you have special requests, such as mild-fragrance or specific product preferences, let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
Is carpet steam cleaning included in bond back cleaning?
Carpet steam cleaning is not always included by default, but it’s one of the most common add-ons. Many leases require it. We recommend steam cleaning if you have stains, odours, pets, or high-traffic carpet areas.
Can you include window cleaning for my final inspection?
Yes. Window and glass cleaning can be added to your bond clean, especially if your agent checks windows closely. We can clean internal glass, sliding doors, mirrors, and detail frames and tracks when required and accessible.
What affects the price of a bond back clean?
Pricing depends on your property size, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, condition, and whether you need add-ons like carpets, windows, or extra detailing. We provide clear quotes so you know what’s included before booking.
