·Google Review“Very thorough on the kitchen and bathrooms. Carpets were booked separately and took longer to dry than I'd planned for, so leave yourself a day before the inspection rather than cutting it fine.”

When a Clayton South rental is ready to hand back, the useful question is not whether it looks generally tidy. It is whether the rooms, fixtures, cupboards, tracks and floors match the inspection scope agreed before the clean.
A Clayton South rental handover can involve bayside houses and apartments near the foreshore, from compact rentals through to larger family layouts, so bedrooms and bathrooms are only part of the quote. Salt residue on windows and tracks, plus the usual kitchen and bathroom detail also affects how much time the team needs on site.
Clayton South sits in our southern & bayside suburbs service area, with nearby vacate cleaning support around Clayton, Clarinda and Oakleigh South. That helps us plan realistic travel, access and key-return timing when inspection dates move.
Before we confirm a Clayton South vacate clean, we ask about end-of-month key returns, likely inspection issues such as bathroom screen marks, and practical notes like photos of any pre-existing marks. Sharing those details early helps keep keys, access and final-inspection timing realistic.
The guarantee is tied to the agreed cleaning scope. If a Clayton South agent reports an eligible missed cleaning item within 72 hours, we check it against the quote and arrange one return visit where access can be provided.
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.
The kitchen scope covers the oven, rangehood, stovetop, splashback, sink, tapware, benches, appliance fronts and empty storage. For Clayton South, mention heavy grease or extra appliances before the quote is finalised.
Bathroom cleaning focuses on the visible inspection items: screen marks, soap build-up, basins, toilets, mirrors, vanity storage and floor edges.
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.
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 areas cover benches, sinks, tapware, cupboards and floors. Kingston access and key planning should be mentioned if you expect those areas to be checked closely.
For Clayton South, From $299 + GST is the published starting point. The confirmed figure depends on bathrooms, storeys, condition, access and whether extras such as carpet steam cleaning are needed.
| Property | Vacate 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.
The access plan matters as much as the checklist. For Clayton South, tell us about keys, parking, shared entries, garages, balconies and any exterior glass you want included.
Book after furniture removal, with power and water still connected. Keep your entry condition report handy, point out pre-existing damage and leave enough time between the clean and final inspection for a walkthrough.
For nearby moves around Clayton, Clarinda and Oakleigh South, 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.
Choose the service wording that matches your handover: end of lease, vacate, move-out or bond cleaning.
From $299 + GST. Vacate cleaning uses the end-of-lease room-count guide, then adjusts for bathrooms, condition, access and requested add-ons.

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 teamFrom $299 + GST is the starting guide for a standard one-bedroom, one-bathroom vacate clean in Clayton South. The final quote depends on bedrooms, bathrooms, condition, access and add-ons such as carpet steam cleaning or exterior windows.
Book after furniture and belongings are removed. If items are still inside, the team cannot reach every inspection surface and the written scope may need to be adjusted.
We cover the empty interior areas an inspection usually checks: kitchen, bathrooms, laundry, wardrobes, cupboards, floors, internal glass, tracks, doors, handles, switches and skirting boards.
Carpet steam cleaning is quoted separately at $40 per room. Book it with enough drying time before final inspection, especially if your lease or condition report mentions professionally cleaned carpets.
The standard scope is the empty interior. Anything outside that, including exterior areas and specialist carpet work, should be confirmed as an add-on.
Yes. Eligible in-scope cleaning issues reported within 72 hours can receive one complimentary re-clean where access is available. It does not cover damage, wear and tear, permanent stains or items excluded from your Clayton South quote.
