Review the tenancy documents
Check the lease, condition report, current agent directions and any written requests. List rooms, vacant or furnished status, keys, access and specific carpet, window, oven or outdoor tasks. For legal questions, consult current official tenancy information or an appropriate adviser.
Build a room-by-room checklist
Identify kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, living areas, floors, glass, accessible storage and fixtures required by the written instructions. Cleaning does not include repairs, pest treatment, rubbish disposal, hazardous materials or restoration unless separately assessed.
Plan carpets, appliances and access
Carpet extraction, appliance interiors and other specialist tasks should be listed and confirmed. Arrange keys, utilities, parking and a clear visit window after belongings or trades are removed. Keep invoices and condition photos with your records.
Compare scope and service terms
Review inclusions, exclusions, price basis, timing and any re-clean policy. A re-clean policy applies only as described in the provider's current written terms and cannot determine a bond decision.
