Unanderra is a working suburb west of Port Kembla, with a station, an industrial edge and a solid stock of post-war brick and fibro houses. It rents steadily to families and workers, and the housing is practical rather than fancy.
Older brick homes with original kitchens are the norm, which means an oven and rangehood that need degreaser and dwell time rather than a quick spray. The industrial corridor nearby puts more dust on sills, tracks and outdoor areas than in the hill suburbs. Agents still inspect against the same exit checklist used across the Illawarra.
What the clean covers
The scope follows standard agent checklists rather than a promise about your bond:
- Oven, racks, cooktop and rangehood filters degreased
- Cupboards and drawers inside and out
- Bathrooms descaled, grout and screens scrubbed
- Windows, sills, tracks and screens, dust and grit cleared
- Laundry, tub and behind the washing machine cavity
- Walls spot cleaned, skirting boards and light fittings
- Floors vacuumed and mopped throughout
Size and condition set the price. Three bedroom houses are the standard job and sit in the middle of the range, with condition moving it either way. Treat any figure as guide pricing only and see our bond cleaning cost guide for typical ranges.
Common add-ons here are carpet steam cleaning and window cleaning where salt and grit have built up on glass and tracks. Moving into a new place as well? A move in clean covers that side. The standard scope is set out on our end of lease cleaning page.
We also cover nearby Figtree, Cordeaux Heights and Farmborough Heights.
Frequently asked questions
The oven has heavy baked on grime. How long does it take?
Usually one to two hours for the oven alone, longer with heavy carbon, since racks often soak while the rest of the kitchen is done. It is built into the quote.
Is the garage included?
A garage sweep out is usually an add-on rather than standard. Say upfront if you want it in the scope.
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.
