Quick answer: To pass your final inspection: clean an empty property, work top to bottom and last-room-first, and focus on the details agents always check, the oven, shower grout, skirting, window tracks and inside cupboards. Take dated photos, and book a professional bond clean if you are short on time.
Clean smart, not just hard
- Empty first. Clean once the furniture is out, so nothing is missed or moved back over clean areas.
- Top to bottom. Dust and cobwebs first, floors last, so dust does not settle on cleaned surfaces.
- Last room first. Clean the room furthest from the door first and work towards the exit.
The details agents always check
- Oven, cooktop and rangehood
- Shower screen, tiles and grout, plus any mould
- Skirting boards, walls and light switches
- Window tracks, sills and flyscreens
- Inside all cupboards and wardrobes
Work through the full end of lease checklist so nothing is missed, and take dated before-and-after photos as evidence.
