Match the service to the Sydney property
Provide property type, bedroom and bathroom count, furnishing, condition, suburb, vacate date and building access. Ask whether the provider can quote the address and whether the visit is a standard end-of-lease clean or needs separate carpet, exterior or specialist work.
Compare the checklist and written quote
Check which rooms, accessible fixtures, floors, cupboards and appliance surfaces are included. List windows, balconies, carpet, pest treatment, rubbish removal and repairs separately. Compare itemized prices against the same task list rather than a low headline price or broader service.
Review communication and service terms
Confirm keys, parking, alarms, building rules, timing and how a concern is reported. Read any re-clean policy for its scope, reporting period and exclusions. Reviews and promotional claims cannot establish that a provider will satisfy a future inspection or return a bond NSW Fair Trading.
Plan the handover and specialist work
Where possible, schedule cleaning after belongings and trades are clear. Photograph existing damage and keep maintenance separate from removable soil. Ask for written confirmation of the agreed cleaning scope and price before accepting the appointment.
