End of lease cleaning in St Kilda
Building access should be part of the plan, not a surprise on cleaning day. ELM combines detailed Vacate Clean inclusions, practical access planning, and head-office support with a quote built around your St Kilda property.
Thorough where it matters. Clear from the beginning.
A detailed clean
Once a property is empty, the smaller details become easier to see. ELM works through kitchens, bathrooms, storage, fixtures, floors, and commonly overlooked edges across apartments, townhouses, and larger homes.
The right scope
For an apartment clean, lift bookings, concierge procedures, keys, loading access, and parking can shape the day. Share those details early so the team arrives with a clear access plan and enough time for the agreed work.
A clearer handover
Send any property-manager priorities with the enquiry. We use them alongside ELM's detailed Vacate Clean inclusions to build a clear quote and identify additional work before you book.
More than a surface clean
Once the furniture is gone, every edge, fixture, shelf, and floor is easier to see. ELM's Vacate Clean brings those details into one thorough service. These are common inclusions; your quotation confirms the final scope for your St Kilda property.

Support that continues after cleaning day
Your clean is coordinated by ELM head office, not left between you and an individual cleaner. If an included item needs attention, send us photos and we will review it against the agreed scope and arrange the appropriate next step under ELM's re-clean policy.
One team from quote to handover
Tell us about the move
Share the rooms, condition, move-out date, access, and any property-manager priorities for your St Kilda property.
Receive a clear quote
We set out the Vacate Clean inclusions, any additional work, expected timing, and total before you book.
Your team gets to work
Directly employed, police-checked cleaners work through the confirmed inclusions with the property and its finishes in mind.
Head office stays with you
If an included item needs attention after the clean, our office reviews it against the confirmed scope and coordinates the appropriate next step.
A quote that reflects the clean you actually need
A bedroom count cannot show the condition of the oven, the number of wet areas, or the details your property manager has raised. We use the real property and requested work to confirm the scope and total before you book.
What needs cleaning
The size, layout, number of wet areas, surface types, and current condition shape the work required.
What you want included
Your quote sets out what is included, along with any inspection priorities shared before booking.
What the team needs on the day
Keys, lifts, parking, access instructions, and separately requested services are considered before the quote is confirmed.

End of lease cleaning in St Kilda
What is included in a St Kilda end-of-lease clean?−
ELM's Vacate Clean covers detailed work across kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas, storage, the entrance, and floors. Your quotation and inclusions document bring the agreed work into one clear property-specific scope.
Can ELM work with my property manager's checklist?+
Yes. Send it when requesting a quote. It can help identify priorities and any items that sit outside the standard Vacate Clean inclusions before the booking is confirmed.
What access information should I provide for an apartment?+
Tell us about keys, lift or concierge requirements, loading access, and parking when requesting a quote. ELM uses those details to assess the booking and plan access before cleaning day.
Are carpet, wall, and window cleaning included?+
Carpet steam cleaning, wall cleaning, and window glass cleaning are assessed and quoted separately. Window tracks, windowsills, and ledges remain included cleaning details.
Can ELM assess a larger or more complex property?+
Yes. ELM accepts suitable end-of-lease enquiries across St Kilda and assesses larger or more complex properties in advance so the scope and quote reflect the work required.
What if an included cleaning item is raised afterwards?+
Contact head office and provide photos of the area. We compare it with your confirmed inclusions and coordinate the appropriate next step under ELM's re-clean policy.
