More on this service

Every Sydney commercial make-good site is different. Tower-floor corporate fitouts behave differently to ground-level retail or warehouse mezzanines, and the cleaning plan should reflect that. We walk each property, map the high-traffic zones, identify the surfaces that need daily attention versus weekly attention, and document a checklist your facility manager can audit against.

Consistency is what separates a professional commercial cleaning provider from a casual one. Our cleaners arrive at the same time, follow the same documented scope, restock the same consumables, and report any issue — a damaged tap, a flickering light, a graffiti tag — back to your nominated contact. Over time that operational discipline shows up as a calmer, more presentable workplace.

We pair daily or weekly servicing with periodic deep cleans: carpet steam cleaning, hard-floor stripping and sealing, high dusting, window cleaning, upholstery refreshes and end-of-quarter resets. Bundling these into your end of lease commercial cleaning Sydney contract removes the admin overhead of chasing multiple specialist trades.

Communication matters as much as the cleaning itself. You get a single point of contact, a digital cleaning log, a transparent quote with no hidden charges, and a clear escalation path if anything ever falls short. We'd rather you tell us early than tolerate a small issue for weeks.

  • We work from your lease's make-good clause and the incoming condition report so the scope matches what the landlord will actually inspect.
  • Where an agent flags an issue after inspection, we return to address items within our scope at no extra charge.

How our Sydney end of lease cleaning process works

Bond and make-good outcomes hinge on matching the landlord's inspection list. Here's how we scope and deliver a handover clean.

  1. 01

    Site walk or floor-plan review

    We visit your vacating site (or review your floor plan for multi-site portfolios), measure the cleanable area, note access, security and after-hours restrictions, and identify the zones that genuinely need daily attention versus weekly.

  2. 02

    Written scope and line-item quote

    You receive a documented scope — tasks, frequencies, cleaner-hours and periodic schedule — with the price against each element. No flat mystery number, so you can compare like with like.

  3. 03

    Onboarding and induction

    We complete building inductions, SWMS and site-specific risk assessments, collect access keys or fobs, and confirm your escalation contacts before the first clean.

  4. 04

    Consistent scheduled servicing

    The same trained, insured cleaners attend on the same schedule, work the documented checklist, restock consumables and log completion digitally so your facility manager can audit rather than guess.

  5. 05

    Quality audits and reporting

    A supervisor audits the site on a set cycle, photographs any defect, and reports maintenance issues — a damaged tap, a flickering light, graffiti — back to your nominated contact.

  6. 06

    Review and adjust

    Scopes drift as businesses change. We review the contract with you periodically and adjust frequencies, hours or periodic work rather than quietly under-servicing.

End of Lease Commercial Sydney FAQs

What is end of lease commercial cleaning?

End of lease commercial cleaning is the detailed clean a commercial tenant arranges before handing premises back to the landlord. It restores the tenancy to a presentable, ready-to-relet condition and supports release of bond or bank guarantee.

Is carpet steam cleaning included?

Yes — carpet steam cleaning is part of a standard end-of-lease commercial scope, along with detailed kitchen and bathroom cleaning.

Do you re-attend if the agent finds issues?

Yes. We re-attend to address reasonable punch-list items raised by the landlord or managing agent.

How much does end of lease commercial cleaning cost?

Pricing depends on floor area, condition, carpet area and whether hard-floor stripping or window cleaning is required. We quote in writing after a site walk.

How much does end of lease commercial cleaning cost in Sydney?

Budget roughly $600–$1,500 for a small office tenancy and $1,500–$4,500 for a full floor. Carpet steam cleaning, kitchen degreasing and internal glass are the biggest cost drivers; warehouses are quoted separately on floor condition.

What's included in a commercial make-good clean?

A full detail clean of all surfaces, joinery, fixtures and fittings, carpet or hard-floor treatment, kitchen and bathroom restoration, internal glass, skirtings, light fittings and vents — scoped against your lease's make-good clause.

Does end of lease cleaning include repairs or painting?

No. Patching, painting, damage repair and licensed trade work sit with your make-good builder. We handle cleaning and mark removal where the surface allows, and will tell you upfront what needs a trade.

How long before handover should I book?

Book two to three weeks out and schedule the clean after the fitout strip-out and rubbish removal. Cleaning before the strip-out is finished almost always means paying for a second clean.

What if the landlord isn't satisfied with the clean?

We return and address any item inside our documented scope at no extra charge. Working from the incoming condition report upfront is what keeps that from being needed.

Can you clean after hours or on weekends for a handover?

Yes — most make-good cleans run after hours or across a weekend so they don't clash with removalists, strip-out trades or the building's dock booking.
