What we know about cleaning rentals in Malvern
The area
Malvern rentals range from Edwardian houses along Glenferrie Road to modern apartments near Malvern station. These properties often have quality finishes that require careful cleaning at handover.

Do you handle timber floor care?−
Yes. We vacuum and mop timber floors with appropriate products that clean without damaging the finish. We avoid excess water on hardwood surfaces.
Can you clean stone benchtops safely?+
Absolutely. We use pH-neutral cleaners on stone and engineered surfaces. No abrasives or acidic products that could etch or stain.
How detailed is the clean?+
We clean every surface the agent will inspect: ovens, rangehoods, window tracks, skirting boards, inside wardrobes, light switches, and more. You receive a signed checklist when we're done.
What about a period home with detailed joinery?+
Our team dusts and cleans architraves, cornices, and decorative mouldings. We take care around original features that are easy to damage with rough handling.
How far in advance should I book in Malvern?+
A week is ideal. We can sometimes accommodate shorter notice, but Malvern bookings fill quickly at month-end.
What if the agent raises an issue after the clean?+
If issues are flagged within 72 hours of the inspection, we come back and address the specific items at no extra charge.
