Kanahooka sits on a peninsula into Lake Illawarra east of Dapto, a quiet residential suburb of brick homes, many of them 1970s and 80s builds on generous blocks with water views at the end. Rentals are family houses.
Lake frontage brings damp air, which encourages mould in bathrooms with weak ventilation and moss on shaded paths and paving. Houses with water views usually have large windows and sliding doors, which means more glass, more tracks and more screens than a standard home. Inside, the kitchen and bathrooms decide the inspection as always.
What a Kanahooka bond clean covers
The scope follows standard agent checklists rather than a promise about your bond:
- Oven, cooktop and rangehood degreased
- Cupboards, drawers and bench tops cleaned
- Bathrooms descaled, surface mould treated, exhaust fans dusted
- Large windows, sliding doors, tracks and screens
- Wardrobes wiped inside, skirting boards and switches
- Walls spot cleaned, light fittings and fans dusted
- Floors vacuumed and mopped throughout
Pricing depends on size and condition. Three and four bedroom homes are the normal job, and a lot of glass adds more time than people expect. Treat any figure as guide pricing only and see our bond cleaning cost guide for typical ranges.
Need more than the standard scope? Add carpet steam cleaning, a deeper oven and kitchen clean, or book a last minute bond clean if your inspection is close. Full details of the base service are on our end of lease cleaning page.
We also cover nearby Koonawarra, Dapto and Horsley.
Frequently asked questions
The house has huge windows. Does that cost more?
It can. Window and track work scales with the amount of glass rather than the bedroom count, so mention large windows and sliding doors when you request a quote.
There is mould in the bathroom from lake damp. Can it be cleaned?
Surface mould usually responds to treatment. Mould under silicone cannot be cleaned out and means the silicone needs replacing, which is a maintenance matter to raise with the agent in writing.
Does a bond clean guarantee I get my bond back?
No cleaner can promise that, and you should be wary of any who do. The bond also covers damage and unpaid rent. The cleans follow standard agent checklists, which is what your property manager inspects against.
