For St Kilda East 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.
St Kilda East is in the Glen Eira service area. The local rental mix includes a mix of established homes, units and apartments, with inspection detail varying by age and condition, so we ask about layout and condition rather than assuming every home needs the same time.
St Kilda East is part of our Glen Eira service area, with nearby coverage across Balaclava, Ripponlea and Caulfield North.
The inspection-sensitive parts are usually shared entry areas, bathroom grout and kitchen cupboard interiors, with extra time allowed for condition issues you flag before booking.
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.
Because St Kilda East sits close to Balaclava, Ripponlea and Caulfield North, access timing and key pickup can often be planned around nearby jobs when the schedule allows.
The base scope for St Kilda East 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 St Kilda East scope is clear.
Bathrooms are scrubbed and sanitised, including shower screens, mineral build-up, toilets, basins, mirrors and tapware. For a mix of established homes, units and apartments, with inspection detail varying by age and condition, 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. The inspection-sensitive parts are usually shared entry areas, bathroom grout and kitchen cupboard interiors, with extra time allowed for condition issues you flag before booking.
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.
For St Kilda East, the published starting point is $299 + GST for a standard one-bedroom, one-bathroom clean. Larger homes are priced by bedrooms and bathrooms rather than a suburb average.
| 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. Unit blocks often have shared areas that sit outside the scope unless agreed. 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 shared entry areas, bathroom grout and kitchen cupboard interiors where the property calls for it.
For St Kilda East homes near Balaclava, Ripponlea and Caulfield North, flag garages, balconies, steep access, shared driveways or exterior glass before booking so the quote says exactly what is included.

Property-specific expectations. St Kilda East rentals run to a mix of established homes, units and apartments, with inspection detail varying by age and condition, so the schedule follows the rooms and surfaces the property actually contains.
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.
Written scope before booking. Tenants, landlords and property managers get the agreed inclusions in writing, including what is excluded or priced separately.
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.
Local handover planning. St Kilda East sits in Glen Eira, with nearby coverage around Balaclava and Ripponlea, so access and timing are discussed before the day.
Quoted on your room counts. Bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas and add-ons shape the price, which is more useful than applying a generic St Kilda East average.
Access varies block to block, so it helps to describe parking and entry when you book. 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 Balaclava, Ripponlea and Caulfield North, 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.

Share the room counts, condition, access details and the date you need the clean.

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 teamThe advertised guide starts at From $299 + GST for a one-bedroom, one-bathroom clean.

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.
