Bond cleaning, also known as end of lease cleaning or vacate cleaning, is a thorough cleaning service performed in rental properties before the tenant moves out. It ensures the property meets the landlord's standards and helps tenants get their full bond deposit back.
Booking bond cleaning is often a requirement outlined in the lease agreement. It ensures that you leave the property in a clean and presentable condition for the next tenant.
The cost of bond cleaning can vary depending on factors such as the size of your home, its condition, and any additional services required. It's best to contact professional bond cleaners for an accurate quote.
While you can certainly attempt to clean the property yourself, hiring professionals ensures a thorough job and saves you time and effort.
The duration of bond cleaning depends on various factors such as the size of your home and its condition. On average, it can take anywhere between 4–10 hours.
Our professional bond cleaners bring their own equipment and supplies. However, it's good to confirm this when booking different bond cleaning services.
Inclusions & Scope
Bond cleaning typically covers all interior areas including bedrooms, living rooms, kitchen, bathrooms, windows (from inside), carpets (if applicable), and other surfaces like walls and floors.
Some companies include carpet steam cleaning as part of their standard package, while others may charge extra for this service. With TOP Bond Cleaning Brisbane, carpet steam cleaning and pest control can be added at extra cost. Clarify with your chosen cleaner beforehand.
Oven and fridge cleaning are typically included, but it's recommended to confirm with the cleaner in advance.
Typically, professional cleaners focus on internal window cleaning only. External window cleaning may require additional services depending on accessibility and requirements. We recommend our customers to refer to our standard bond checklist for inclusions and exclusions.
Many companies offer specialised services such as carpet steam cleaning or pest control alongside general bond cleaning. You can discuss your requirements with them before booking. However, we offer all services in a package, and it is cheaper when you have all services packaged with us.
Basic wall spot-cleaning is typically included in bond cleaning. However, extensive marks, full wall wash, scuffs, or other damages may require separate treatment or repair.
Most professional cleaners offer customised packages tailored to your specific needs. You can request quotes for full-house or partial-room bookings accordingly.
Booking & Preparation
It's recommended to remove personal belongings from the property before cleaners arrive to ensure they can access all areas easily.
Bond cleaning focuses on cleanliness rather than repairs. However, it's best practice to address any damages or issues separately to avoid disputes with your landlord.
Being present during the cleaning is not necessary, but if you prefer supervising or have specific instructions, you can discuss this with the cleaner beforehand.
It's advisable to book bond cleaning at least 1–2 weeks prior to your move-out date to secure a slot that fits your schedule.

We as a reputable company of bond cleaners usually offer a satisfaction guarantee. If your landlord raises concerns about the cleanliness, contact your cleaner and they should rectify any issues free of charge.
Most professional cleaners offer a satisfaction guarantee, where they rectify any issues reported within a specific time frame after completion of the cleaning. We provide 7 days customer satisfaction to rectify the issues if landlord or real estate is not happy with the cleaning.
