A pre-sale clean is a comprehensive deep clean of your property before listing photos are taken or open homes begin. Buyers form judgements within seconds — a spotless property photographs better, shows better in person, and typically achieves a higher sale price. It's one of the highest-ROI steps a seller can take before going to market.
What does a move-in clean include?
A move-in clean covers every surface in the property — inside cupboards and drawers, oven and range hood, shower screens, window tracks, light fittings, ceiling fans, skirting boards, and all floors. The goal is to start with a genuinely clean slate in your new home, not just a surface wipe-down.
How is a pre-sale clean different from a regular clean?
A regular clean maintains a clean property. A pre-sale clean restores it. We work methodically through every room, tackling built-up grime in grout lines, oven grease, limescale on shower screens, and marks on walls — surfaces that don't get attention during routine cleaning. It takes significantly longer and requires commercial-grade products.
Can you coordinate with the real estate agent or property manager?
Yes. We can work around open home schedules and photography sessions. Just share the relevant dates when you book and we'll schedule accordingly. We can also liaise directly with the agent if you're managing the sale from interstate.
How much notice do you need for a pre-sale clean?
2–3 business days' notice is ideal, though we often accommodate urgent requests. If you're working to a listing deadline, call us directly on 0423 345 980 and we'll do our best to fit you in.
Is move-in cleaning worth it if the previous tenants cleaned?
In most cases, yes. What a vacating tenant considers clean and what a professional deep clean uncovers are usually very different. Oven interiors, range hood filters, shower grouting, and window tracks are commonly missed. Starting your tenancy or ownership in a genuinely clean property gives you a verified baseline.
Do you provide a certificate or receipt for the clean?
Yes. We provide a detailed invoice that specifies all areas cleaned. This can be useful for property management records, real estate disclosures, or simply as a personal record of the service.
