Frequently Asked Questions
How much should an end of tenancy clean cost?
Professional end of lease cleaning costs anywhere from $150 to $300 for a standard two-bedroom home. Costs increase with larger homes and additional cleaning services such as deep carpet cleaning or outdoor window washing. Because each cleaning job is so different, it’s important to get a quote from your chosen professional cleaning service before moving forward with your booking. Doing this will help ensure you get the cleaning services you need and that you aren’t surprised by any hidden fees.
What is included in end of lease cleaning?
An exit cleaning includes all the essentials such as:
- Vacuuming carpets
- Sweeping and mopping hard floors
- Dusting and cleaning sideboards, floorboards, furniture and appliances
- Cleaning bathrooms and kitchens
- Indoor window washing
Services may vary depending on the end of lease cleaning company you hire. Be sure to ask what services and which rooms are included in your package. Remember that you can always book extra room cleanings or additional services – such as carpet cleaning, garage or patio cleaning, upholstery cleaning and more – for an additional fee.
Can I do an end of tenancy cleaning myself? What does an exit cleaning service include?
Yes, but you may not want to. Under the Residential Tenancies Act, New Zealand tenants are required to leave their leased property reasonably clean and tidy after their tenancy ends, although they aren’t necessarily required to use a professional cleaning service to do so. However, your landlord will expect the property to be in good condition, and professional cleaners will almost invariably do a better job than you can yourself. Before deciding to do a DIY ‘move out clean’, be sure to consider all the factors. Do you have enough time? Do you have the proper materials and equipment? Do you know exactly what needs to be done? What may seem like an easy way to save money could end up costing you in the long run. Professional cleaners will save you time and hassle. They may even help you get your bond back faster – a definite win on all accounts.
How long should an end of lease clean take?
End of lease cleaning professionals work much faster than you can, so you can expect standard cleanings to be finished the same day they’re started. Most move out cleaning sessions will only be between 3 and 8 hours depending on the size of the property and the number of cleaners assigned to the job. You can facilitate the move out cleaning process by ensuring that all of your personal property is moved before the cleaners arrive.
