End of lease cleaning in Prahran for properties old and new
Prahran rentals cover a wide range of property types and conditions. We scope the clean to what your property actually needs, then deliver it.

What we know about cleaning rentals in Prahran
The area
Prahran's housing mix is unusually varied for a single suburb. Original Victorian terraces, 1990s townhouse developments, share-house conversions, and newer apartment buildings all sit within a few blocks of each other. Two adjacent rentals can need very different scopes at handover.
Property types
Renovated 2- and 3-bedroom terraces, older share houses, smaller apartments, and newer townhouses. Property finishes range from original timber and tile to stone benchtops and laminate, often in the same suburb on the same day.
Agent expectations
Prahran inspections tend to vary by landlord type. Investor-managed properties often have stricter checklists than corporate-managed buildings. We work to the agent's checklist regardless of the standard.

End of lease cleaning prices for Prahran
These are guide ranges for standard end-of-lease cleans in Prahran. The final quote depends on the size of the property, its current condition, and any extras like carpet steam cleaning or window washing. We confirm the exact price before any work starts.
“Elm Cleaning Bayside did our end-of-lease clean and I can honestly say it was the best decision we made. The team left the property in immaculate condition, and our real estate agent had no issues at all during inspection. They were very professional, arrived right on schedule, and even double-checked every room before leaving. The price was fair considering the quality of the work. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.”
End of lease cleaning in Prahran
What if the property is in worse condition than expected?−
We quote based on a description at booking. If we arrive and the condition is materially different, we will call you before starting so we can agree on a revised scope and price.
Can you handle older bathrooms and kitchens?+
Yes. Older bathrooms and kitchens often need more time on grout, tiles, and behind appliances. We allow for the extra time when quoting properties of this era.
Do you price share houses differently?+
Share houses are quoted on scope and condition, not bedroom count alone. The kitchen and common-area condition is usually the main factor. We will confirm pricing after a short call.
How far in advance should I book?+
A week ahead is ideal, particularly around end of month. We can often accommodate shorter notice but the schedule fills quickly through the busy windows.
Can you work with my agent's checklist?+
Yes. Send it through when you book and we will work from their list rather than ours, so the clean matches exactly what they inspect against.
What is your re-clean guarantee?+
If your agent raises issues within 72 hours of the inspection, we come back and address the specific items at no extra charge.
