Make a room-by-room task list

List kitchens, bathrooms, floors, cupboards, appliances and reachable windows. Confirm carpet extraction, oven interiors, blinds, balconies, garages and pest treatment separately. Repairs, rubbish, mould remediation and hazardous materials are outside routine cleaning.

Compare current quotes

Give providers the same property size, condition, vacancy, access and timing. Review inclusions, exclusions, price basis, optional services and any written re-clean policy. Online rates and old estimates may not reflect current local quotes.

Prepare the property

Remove belongings and ordinary rubbish, arrange keys, parking and utilities, and document existing damage. Coordinate trades and furniture movement safely before the visit.
