How to Choose a Strata Cleaning Company in Sydney

A strata cleaning contract should reflect the building's common areas, use, access and maintenance responsibilities. Owners corporations and strata managers can compare providers using a written scope rather than assuming a cleaner guarantees compliance, resident satisfaction or asset value.

Assess the building and shared areas

List entrances, lobbies, lifts, corridors, stairs, washrooms, bins, car parks and outdoor areas. Note building size, occupancy, surfaces, access restrictions, waste arrangements, security and strata rules.

Define the schedule and tasks

Specify what is cleaned on each visit, the frequency and any periodic work such as windows, carpets, floors or pressure cleaning. Confirm products, equipment, consumables, high-access exclusions and how seasonal or one-off requests are handled.

Verify provider arrangements

Ask who will attend, how keys and access are managed, who supervises work, how incidents are reported and what current insurance or qualifications apply to specialist tasks. Check the agreement, complaint process and service review procedure.

Compare current written quotes

Provide each provider with the same site plan, task list, schedule and access details. Compare price basis, exclusions, cancellation, variation and waste terms. Do not assume that online reviews or broad compliance statements guarantee future performance.
