Real feedback from property managers and business owners who rely on The Lease Cleaners.
“Fair price, no upselling on the phone, and the quote didn't change on the day. Two cleaners, about five hours for a three-bedroom townhouse. The skirting boards and window tracks were the give-away that they'd actually done the detail work.”
Tom Wheatley
Tenant
·Google Review“We use them for turnovers across a small portfolio and the quality is consistent. Only reason it isn't five stars is that availability gets tight at the end of the month — worth booking further ahead than you think you need to.”

Property Manager
·Google Review“Quoted room by room over the phone, and the invoice matched exactly. No surprise line items, which is more than I can say for the last mob I used.”

For Elwood tenants, landlords and property managers, the useful clean is the one that matches the actual property: rooms, bathrooms, internal glass, floors, access and any add-ons required by the condition report.
Elwood is a busy suburban service area, so dates near month-end are worth booking before the inspection week is crowded. We use that local context with your photos or notes to decide how much time the clean needs.
Elwood is part of our Port Phillip service area, with nearby coverage across Ripponlea, Elsternwick and Balaclava.
We give the most attention to balcony glass, kitchen splashbacks in compact galley kitchens, and the inside of built-in wardrobes, because those are the items most likely to be noticed during handover.
It suits three groups. Tenants book it to reduce cleaning disputes before key return. Landlords use it between tenancies so the next applicant sees a property that is ready to inspect. Property managers use it for turnovers because the agreed scope is written down before the clean starts.
Nearby coverage includes Ripponlea, Elsternwick and Balaclava, which helps when tenants, agents or landlords are coordinating more than one handover in the same area.
Every Elwood end-of-lease clean starts with the empty interior and the written scope accepted before booking. Carpet steam cleaning, exterior windows, balconies, garages and key movement are listed separately so the price stays clear.
Oven interior including trays and racks, rangehood, stovetop and oven exterior, benchtops, splashback, sink, tapware, appliance exteriors, plus empty cabinet and drawer interiors. In Elwood, tell us early if the oven or rangehood has heavy grease so the time is allowed.
Showers, bath, toilet, vanity, basin, tapware, mirrors, cabinet interiors and accessible extractor vents. Extra bathrooms add time, and compact floor plans mean the kitchen and bathroom carry most of the inspection weight.
Wardrobes, cupboards, doors, handles, switches, skirting boards and accessible surfaces are cleaned once belongings are removed. Carpeted bedrooms are vacuumed, with steam cleaning quoted per room if needed.
Accessible fittings, cornices, skirting boards, doors, handles, storage areas and hard surfaces are dusted and wiped. We give the most attention to balcony glass, kitchen splashbacks in compact galley kitchens, and the inside of built-in wardrobes, because those are the items most likely to be noticed during handover.
All carpeted areas are vacuumed and hard floors are swept and mopped. Carpet steam cleaning is an add-on at $40 per room and should be booked with enough drying time before inspection.
Window interiors, sills and tracks are included where accessible, along with one set of glass doors inside and out. Exterior windows are quoted separately at $20 where access is practical.
Laundry benches, sink, tapware, cabinet interiors, cabinet exteriors and floors are included. Garage sweep, balcony cleaning, flea treatment and key pickup/drop-off can be added before the booking is accepted.
Cleaning cannot repair a damaged surface. Permanent stains, worn finishes and pre-existing damage sit outside the clean and outside the re-clean cover, so point them out before the quote is finalised.

Insured and police-checked cleaners. Every cleaner is fully insured and police-checked, and the business carries $20 million public liability insurance.
Quoted on your room counts. Bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas and add-ons shape the price, which is more useful than applying a generic Elwood average.
Written scope before booking. Tenants, landlords and property managers get the agreed inclusions in writing, including what is excluded or priced separately.
Property-specific expectations. Elwood rentals run to high-rise apartments, units and a handful of terraces, from compact rentals through to larger family layouts, so the schedule follows the rooms and surfaces the property actually contains.
Clear limits on cleaning. Worn finishes, permanent staining and pre-existing damage are identified separately so you are not paying for a result cleaning cannot deliver.
72-hour re-clean support. Eligible, in-scope cleaning issues reported with evidence and access can receive one complimentary re-clean visit under the guarantee terms.
Building management usually controls lift access and the service entry, so the booking has to be made before the day. If the agent is handling keys, share the office details and any pickup or drop-off timing before we confirm the booking.
Book the clean once the furniture is out, with water and power still connected. Keep your entry condition report to hand, point out existing damage, and leave time for a walkthrough before the keys go back.
For handovers around Ripponlea and Elsternwick, clear access notes help the team arrive with the right equipment and enough time.
Choose the service wording that matches your handover: end of lease, vacate, move-out or bond cleaning.
From $299 + GST. End-of-lease base rate for a standard one-bedroom, one-bathroom property. Each extra bathroom adds $30, and condition, storeys and add-ons are quoted on top. Bond cleaning starts $20 lower at every size.
