Professional Bond Cleaners for a Smoother Move
Bond cleaning, also called end-of-lease cleaning or move-out cleaning, is a detailed clean completed before a tenant returns the property to the owner or property manager.
The Queensland Residential Tenancies Authority states that tenants are generally responsible for returning a rental property in the same condition it was in at the beginning of the tenancy, apart from fair wear and tear. Your entry condition report and photos can help you identify what requires attention.
Zap and Shine Crew helps Brisbane tenants prepare their properties for final inspection with a thorough clean based on the agreed scope of work. Whether you are leaving a small unit or a larger family home, we will provide a clear quote and practical cleaning plan.

How Much Does Bond Cleaning Cost in Brisbane?
The cost of end-of-lease cleaning depends on the amount of work required. A small, well-maintained apartment will usually need a different cleaning plan from a large house requiring extensive oven, wall, or bathroom cleaning.
Your quote may take into account:
- The property type and size
- The number of bedrooms and bathrooms
- Whether the property is furnished or empty
- The present condition of the property
- The number of cleaners and time required
- Access, parking and building requirements
- Internal windows, walls, balconies or garages
- Optional carpet cleaning or other additional services
We explain the proposed scope and price before confirming your booking, so you know what the service includes.
For the most accurate price, provide your suburb, property type, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, preferred date and a brief description of the property’s condition. Photos can also help us prepare a more accurate quote.
Add Carpet Cleaning to Your End-of-Lease Service
General floor cleaning and professional carpet cleaning are different services. Standard bond cleaning may include vacuuming, while carpet steam cleaning is available as an optional add-on.
Our professional carpet cleaning in Brisbane can help address dirt, odours and everyday residue before your final inspection. Combining the services can also make it easier to organise your cleaning around the same moving schedule.
Whether professional carpet cleaning is required can depend on the carpet’s condition at the beginning of the tenancy and the circumstances of your tenancy agreement. Check your entry condition report and the Queensland RTA’s cleaning guidance before booking.
Carpet cleaning cannot repair burns, tears, pulled seams or other physical damage. If your carpet is damaged, ask whether a separate carpet repair service may be suitable.

Detailed, Room-by-Room Cleaning

Clear Quotes and Agreed Scope
You receive a quote based on the information you provide. We explain what is included and discuss any additional work before it is added.
Equipment and Supplies Provided
Our cleaners arrive with the equipment and cleaning products required for the agreed service. You do not need to purchase cleaning supplies for us.
Flexible Booking Options
We understand that moving dates, key handovers and final inspections can be difficult to coordinate. We offer flexible appointment options, with short-notice bookings subject to availability.
Optional Carpet Cleaning
Bond cleaning and carpet cleaning can be organised together, helping you reduce the number of separate appointments during your move.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is bond cleaning the same as end-of-lease cleaning?
Yes. In Queensland, the terms “bond cleaning” and “end-of-lease cleaning” are commonly used to describe a detailed clean completed when a tenant moves out of a rental property. It may also be called move-out cleaning.
What does a bond clean include?
A bond clean generally covers the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas, laundry, cupboards, floors and other accessible internal surfaces.
The exact inclusions depend on the property and your selected service. Your quote will state which areas and additional services are included.
How much does end-of-lease cleaning cost in Brisbane?
The price depends on the property’s size, condition, layout, and cleaning requirements. Optional services such as carpet steam cleaning, extensive wall cleaning, balconies, garages, or exterior windows can also affect the price.
Is professional carpet cleaning included?
Professional carpet steam cleaning is treated as an optional service unless it is specifically included in your quote. General carpet vacuuming may be included in the standard cleaning scope.
Does bond cleaning guarantee that I will receive my full bond back?
No cleaning company can control the final bond decision. Property damage, missing items, unpaid rent, and other tenancy matters unrelated to cleaning can affect a bond refund.
Do Queensland tenants have to hire a professional bond cleaner?
Not necessarily. Queensland RTA guidance explains that tenants can clean the property themselves or hire a reputable cleaning company. The property generally needs to be returned in the same condition it was in at the beginning of the tenancy, apart from fair wear and tear.
How long does an end-of-lease clean take?
The time required depends on the property’s size, layout and condition, as well as the number of cleaners attending. Larger properties and homes requiring extensive kitchen, bathroom, window or wall cleaning will take longer.
Should the property be empty before cleaning?
An empty property is usually easier to clean thoroughly. Please remove personal belongings, rubbish, and food wherever possible.
If furniture or other items will remain at the property, tell us before booking so we can confirm which areas will be accessible.
Do I need to provide cleaning products or equipment?
No. Zap and Shine Crew provides the cleaning equipment and products needed for the agreed service.
Please make sure the property has working electricity, running water, and safe access on the day of the booking.
How far ahead should I book?
Booking one to two weeks ahead is recommended, particularly around weekends and the end of the month. If your move is happening soon, contact us anyway. Short-notice appointments may be available depending on our schedule.
