An exit clean in Highett is not just a tidy-up before keys go back. It is a room-by-room clean against a written scope, with the inspection details agreed before the team arrives.
Highett is in the Bayside service area. The local rental mix includes bayside houses and apartments near the foreshore, with quotes shaped by room counts and access, so we ask about layout and condition rather than assuming every home needs the same time.
Highett is part of our Bayside service area, with nearby coverage across Hampton East, Moorabbin and Cheltenham.
We give the most attention to salt residue on windows and tracks, plus the usual kitchen and bathroom detail, 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 Hampton East, Moorabbin and Cheltenham, which helps when tenants, agents or landlords are coordinating more than one handover in the same area.
The base scope for Highett covers the internal rooms and surfaces a final inspection usually checks. We confirm exclusions and add-ons before the day, which keeps the clean from turning into an open-ended hourly job.
Kitchen detail is usually inspection-critical: oven interior, rangehood, stovetop, benches, splashback, sink and empty cupboards. We price extra appliances separately so the Highett scope is clear.
Bathrooms are scrubbed and sanitised, including shower screens, mineral build-up, toilets, basins, mirrors and tapware. For bayside houses and apartments near the foreshore, with quotes shaped by room counts and access, bathroom count is usually a stronger price driver than floor area.
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 salt residue on windows and tracks, plus the usual kitchen and bathroom detail, 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.
A vacate clean in Highett is quoted from the rate card below, then adjusted for condition, extra bathrooms, storeys and extras such as carpet steam cleaning or exterior windows.
| Property | End of lease, from |
|---|---|
| 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom | $299 |
| 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom | $399 |
| 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $429 |
| 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $529 |
| 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $579 |
| 5+ bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | $679 |
Prices exclude GST and assume standard property condition. Each additional bathroom adds $30, and bond cleaning starts $20 lower than end-of-lease at every size.
Bedroom and bathroom counts matter most. Glass here shows marks faster than it does inland, which inspections tend to pick up. Add-ons are itemised, so you can see what belongs in the end-of-lease clean and what has been priced separately.
Send your room counts, condition notes and key-return date through the quote form for a fixed figure before you book.
Use this checklist against your entry condition report before the keys go back. The team works from the agreed written scope, with extra attention to salt residue on windows and tracks, plus the usual kitchen and bathroom detail where the property calls for it.
For Highett homes near Hampton East, Moorabbin and Cheltenham, flag garages, balconies, steep access, shared driveways or exterior glass before booking so the quote says exactly what is included.

Quoted on your room counts. Bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas and add-ons shape the price, which is more useful than applying a generic Highett average.
Written scope before booking. Tenants, landlords and property managers get the agreed inclusions in writing, including what is excluded or priced separately.
Insured and police-checked cleaners. Every cleaner is fully insured and police-checked, and the business carries $20 million public liability insurance.
Local handover planning. Highett sits in Bayside, with nearby coverage around Hampton East and Moorabbin, so access and timing are discussed before the day.
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.
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.
Street parking is usually workable, though it tightens close to the foreshore. If there is a balcony, garage, courtyard, shared entry or rubbish left behind, list it with the quote request rather than saving it for cleaning day.
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.
We also service Hampton East, Moorabbin and Cheltenham, so nearby move dates can often be planned together when availability allows.
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.

Our bond-back cleaning cover
Report an in-scope end-of-lease cleaning issue within 72 hours, with evidence and access, for one complimentary re-clean. Conditions apply.
Our bond-back service addresses the cleaning work in your agreed scope. Bond decisions can also involve rent, damage and other tenancy matters, so a clean cannot guarantee the return of the entire bond.

Talk to the teamAn end-of-lease clean in Highett is written around the full interior: oven and rangehood, cupboards and drawers, bathrooms, laundry, skirting boards, switches, floors, internal glass and tracks. Carpet steam cleaning, exterior windows, balconies, garages and key collection are quoted separately, with access notes checked against Bayside and nearby Hampton East and Moorabbin. For local scheduling, we also note access around Hampton East, Moorabbin, Cheltenham, Sandringham and Hampton.
The advertised guide starts at From $299 + GST for a one-bedroom, one-bathroom clean. Your Highett quote is confirmed against your rooms, bathrooms, access and condition notes, because bayside properties do not take the same time just because they are in the same area. We use Bayside access notes and nearby timing around Hampton East and Moorabbin to keep the booking realistic. For local scheduling, we also note access around Hampton East, Moorabbin, Cheltenham, Sandringham and Hampton.
Yes, carpet steam cleaning can be added at $40 per room when booked with the clean. It uses separate equipment and drying time, so include the carpeted room count when you request your Highett quote.

For local scheduling, we also note access around Hampton East, Moorabbin, Cheltenham, Sandringham and Hampton.
The guarantee is a re-clean promise, not a blanket bond promise. For Highett properties, the key is having the scope agreed before cleaning day so any post-inspection request can be matched to what was booked. We note nearby timing around Hampton East, Moorabbin and Cheltenham when arranging access. It also helps when the move overlaps nearby Hampton East, Moorabbin, Cheltenham, Sandringham and Hampton.
Victorian renters generally need to leave the property reasonably clean, and a professional clean is usually tied to what the lease and entry condition report require. Many Highett clients still book one because the written scope reduces disputes about ovens, bathrooms, tracks and cupboards. It is also easier to compare expectations across Hampton East and Moorabbin when the scope is written down. That keeps the Bayside handover practical if keys, parking or agent timing change around Hampton East, Moorabbin, Cheltenham, Sandringham and Hampton.
