Check the lease and condition records
Review the agreement, entry report, inventory and written directions to understand tasks relevant to your tenancy. Requirements vary by contract and jurisdiction; consult current Queensland tenancy guidance or an appropriate adviser for legal questions.
Confirm property and furniture scope
List rooms, appliances, blinds, floors, windows, outdoor spaces and whether furniture or personal items remain. Ask whether carpet extraction, upholstery, mattresses, garage, balcony, blinds and pest control are included or separate. Do not assume common checklists apply to every property.
Clarify surface care and exclusions
Identify delicate finishes, existing damage, mould-like growth, salt residue or other concerns before cleaning. Use compatible products and methods. Repairs, repainting, pest treatment, hazardous materials and building maintenance need separate services.
Compare written quotes and terms
Provide the same property size, condition, access and requested tasks to each provider. Confirm price basis, inclusions, exclusions, scheduling and any re-clean policy in writing. A policy applies only as stated and does not decide bond outcomes.
