“Third-floor flat, no lift, and I'd warned them about the stairs. No complaints, no extra charge, finished inside the quoted time. The bathroom grout genuinely looked new.”

Real feedback from property managers and business owners who rely on The Lease Cleaners.
“Studio apartment, small job, and they still ran the full checklist instead of treating it as a quick once-over. In and out in under three hours.”

Move out cleaning in Kensington before final inspection
A good Kensington move-out clean removes the guesswork from the last week of moving. You get a clear list of inclusions, separate add-ons and realistic timing before the team arrives.
In Kensington, we commonly allow for high-rise apartments, units and a handful of terraces. The local inspection pressure is usually around lift bookings, permit parking, compact kitchens, bathroom detail and key handover timing, with the final scope shaped by your photos, room count and agent notes.
Because Kensington connects with nearby rental handovers in Flemington, Travancore, North Melbourne, Ascot Vale and West Melbourne, we ask for access notes early rather than trying to solve them on cleaning day.
Before we confirm a Kensington move-out clean, we ask about lockbox or agent-key collection, likely inspection issues such as bathroom screen marks, and practical notes like a list of excluded add-ons. Sharing those details early helps keep keys, access and final-inspection timing realistic.
Kensington rentals can include high-rise apartments, units and a handful of terraces. The quote is shaped around access details, carpeted rooms, bathroom count, exterior glass and the final inspection deadline.
For Kensington, the agent checklist usually needs clean, reachable surfaces more than broad claims about the whole bond. That is why cupboards, tracks, wet areas, skirting boards, door handles and switches are called out in the written scope.
Bond-back guarantee and re-clean support
For Kensington handovers, the safest approach is a clear scope before the clean and a clear process after inspection. Send photos or the agent report within 72 hours if an eligible included item is raised.
The guarantee does not cover permanent stains, damaged surfaces, worn finishes, unpaid rent, rubbish removal, pest treatment, mould inside silicone, or work that was excluded from your quote. This is why we list carpet steam cleaning, exterior windows, balconies, garages and key pickup separately before you book.
What your Kensington move-out clean can include
Kitchen
Cooking areas are checked carefully because agents often photograph ovens, rangehoods and cabinet interiors. Fridge, dishwasher and microwave interiors can be added when requested.
Bathrooms
Bathrooms include shower screens, basins, toilets, mirrors, tapware, vanities and accessible vents. In Kensington, extra bathrooms are listed clearly because they change the time on site.
Bedrooms and living areas
Once the property is empty, the team can reach wardrobe interiors, skirting boards, switches, handles, doors, storage areas and the surfaces that are usually hidden during the tenancy.
Floors and windows
Carpets are vacuumed and hard floors are swept and mopped. Internal windows, sills and tracks are included where accessible; carpet steam cleaning and exterior windows are quoted as add-ons.
Laundry and extras
Add-ons are kept separate so there is no confusion on cleaning day. Garages, balconies, courtyards, flea treatment and key movement need to be confirmed before the job is accepted.
Room-count pricing before add-ons
Use From $299 + GST as the first pricing marker for a standard one-bedroom, one-bathroom Kensington clean. The quote is confirmed only after the actual property details are clear.
| Property | Move out cleaning, 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 extra bathroom adds $30, while carpet steam cleaning, exterior windows, balconies, garages and key movement are quoted separately.
Kensington handover and access notes
High-rise apartments, units and a handful of terraces. Apartments and terraces need clear access notes. Tell us about fobs, loading zones, service lifts, lockboxes and whether the agent holds keys.
Clear belongings first, leave power and water on, and tell us what the agent has already mentioned. That helps separate cleaning from wear, damage or excluded work.
For nearby moves around Flemington, Travancore and North Melbourne, the same quote process applies: send room counts, condition notes and your key-return date through the quote form, then we confirm the scope in writing.

Talk to the teamDo I need carpet steam cleaning in Kensington?
Carpets are vacuumed in the standard scope. Steam cleaning is an add-on and should be matched to your lease, condition report and agent expectations.

Garages, balconies and exterior windows are not assumed. If they matter for your Kensington handover, add them to the quote request before the booking is accepted.
