How much does a bond clean cost in Batemans Bay?

The short answer on price

Our bond cleans are a fixed price set by the number of bedrooms, all prices plus GST. A one bedroom runs $450 to $550, a two bedroom $500 to $600, a three bedroom $600 to $750, and a four bedroom $700 to $850. That covers the bulk of the rentals and holiday lets around town. A small one bedroom unit or studio sits at the lower end. A larger home with extra living areas, two bathrooms and a fair bit of glass pushes toward the top of its bracket.

We quote a fixed price up front for a bond clean, set by the size of the place. That means the number we give you is the number you pay, as long as the place is roughly as described when we walk through or chat it over, with no surprise on the day. For a big one-off like an exit clean a fixed price keeps it simple, because a bond clean is stressful enough without wondering what the final figure will be.

Carpet cleaning is priced separately at $50 per room plus GST, and when it's part of an end of lease clean there's no minimum on it. Most agents and landlords want carpets professionally cleaned as part of the exit, so it's worth folding that into your thinking from the start rather than treating it as an afterthought.

What actually moves the price up or down

Bedrooms are only part of the story. The real cost drivers are bathrooms, the oven, windows and the overall condition. Two bathrooms instead of one is more scrubbing, more grout, more glass. An oven that hasn't been touched in a year takes serious time and elbow grease to get back to handover standard. Big banks of windows, common in the coastal places up here that are built to catch the view, add up fast because they need doing inside and often outside too.

Condition matters more than people expect. A place that has been kept reasonably tidy and cleaned now and then is quicker to bring up to scratch than one that has been let go. We aren't judging, life gets busy, but it does change the time on the job and therefore the quote. If you tell us straight how the place really is, we can give you a realistic number instead of a hopeful one that gets revised later.

Extras sit outside the standard bond clean and are quoted on top. Carpet clean is the common one. Others include a separate garage or shed, a lot of internal glass or mirrored robes, walls that need spot washing beyond the usual, and yard or rubbish work if the tenancy left the outside in a state. We'll always tell you what's in the base price and what's an extra before you commit, so there are no grey areas.

What a full bond clean includes

Our end of lease clean is built to the REINSW exit standard, which is the benchmark agents along this coast measure against. That means the whole place top to bottom, not a quick once over. Kitchen includes the oven, cooktop, range hood, splashback, inside and outside of cupboards and drawers, the sink and taps. Bathrooms cover the shower, screen, tiles and grout, toilet, vanity, mirror and exhaust fan.

Through the rest of the home we do skirting boards, door frames, light switches, power points, fans, air conditioner faces, internal windows and tracks, wardrobe interiors, and we wipe down and dust everything that should be wiped and dusted. Floors are vacuumed and mopped. We get into the corners and edges that catch dust and the high touch spots agents love to run a finger across at inspection.

We back the end of lease clean with a bond back guarantee. If the agent or landlord flags something on the cleaning at the final inspection, we come back and put it right at no extra charge. We can only stand behind the cleaning itself, not damage or wear that was already there, but on the cleaning side we'll return and fix it. That guarantee is part of every bond clean quote, not an add on.

Why coastal homes around here are their own thing

Cleaning a place in Batemans Bay isn't the same as cleaning one inland, and the price reflects the reality. Salt and sand get into everything. Window tracks, fly screens, door runners and outdoor edges collect a fine gritty film that a normal wipe doesn't shift. Sliding doors and big windows, which nearly every place near the water has, take longer because they have to come up clear, not just clean enough.

Then there's the holiday let and rental churn. A lot of properties from Durras down through the Bay and out to Moruya turn over as short stays or move between tenants quickly, so they cop heavy use and need a proper reset between guests or leases. We work across both the long term rental exits and the holiday let turnovers, and we understand what each market and each agent expects at handover.

We use low tox products through the whole job. That's better for you, for the next people moving in, and for the homes near the water and the bush that we all want to keep clean. It doesn't cost you extra and it doesn't soften the result. The place still comes up to exit standard, just without the harsh chemical hangover.

How to get an accurate quote, and how to keep it low

Getting a price is simple. Give us a call on 0479 184 498 and tell us the suburb, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, whether carpets need cleaning, and roughly how the place is sitting condition wise. A few photos help a lot, especially of the oven, the bathrooms and any windows. From that we can give you a fixed quote, usually on the spot or the same day.

If you want to keep the cost toward the lower end, the biggest lever is what you do before we arrive. Have the place empty of furniture and your belongings, with the power and water still on. Pull out the fridge and washing machine if you can, take down anything stuck to walls, and clear the bench and floor space. We can clean around obstacles, but an empty place is quicker and that flows straight through to the price.

It's also worth booking a few days before your final inspection rather than the night before. That leaves room for the bond back guarantee to actually work, because if anything needs a return visit there's time to do it before you hand the keys back. A clean booked in a panic the evening before handover leaves no margin if the agent wants something touched up.

Where we work and who we're

Capital Coastal Cleaning is a proud Indigenous owned local business based right here in Batemans Bay. Tyson started it in 2023, and the team is Tyson, Shanice and Lisa. We're police checked and fully insured, we're open seven days, and we hold a 5.0 rating from 110 Google reviews. That last bit matters on a bond clean, because you're trusting someone to get your full bond back, and the reviews are real people in the same boat you're in now.

We cover the Eurobodalla coast from Durras in the north down through Batemans Bay and out to Moruya. Bond cleans and end of lease are a core part of what we do, alongside carpet clean, regular home cleaning, office and commercial, builders cleans, window cleaning, NDIS and home care package support, council and facility work, lawn and yard, and rubbish removal. So if your exit needs more than just the inside, you can sort the lot through one local crew.

If you're weighing up the cost of a bond clean against the size of your bond, the maths usually answers itself. A few hundred dollars done properly, with a guarantee behind it, beats risking the whole bond on a clean that doesn't pass inspection.
