Regular home cleaning that suits how Tomakin actually lives
Tomakin is a funny mix to clean for, and after a few years running this town as part of our Broulee, Mossy Point and Tomakin loop, we know the rhythm of it. You have got permanent families who live here all year, and you've got holiday places sitting empty for stretches then full of visitors over summer. A regular home clean here isn't the same job as a regular clean in a dry inland town. The Tomaga River sits at the bottom of the street for half the place, the beach is at the end of the other half, and that means sand and salt are in the picture every single visit, not just now and then.
When you book us for a weekly, fortnightly or monthly clean in Tomakin, we set a fixed price for the visit so you know exactly what it costs, and we send the same cleaner each time. That last part matters more than people think in a town this size. The same cleaner learns your house, knows that the sliding door off the deck always sticks with salt grit, knows you keep the good glasses in the second cupboard, and knows which carpet runner cops the worst of the beach traffic. You aren't re-explaining your home to a stranger every fortnight.
Salt and river sand are the whole reason a routine beats a one-off here
Plenty of Tomakin owners try to keep on top of it themselves and only call a cleaner when it gets away from them. The trouble with that on the river and the beach is that salt doesn't wait. It builds on the aluminium window frames and the shower screen between visits, and once it has bitten into the glass and the metal it's a much bigger job to bring back. River-mouth homes here get a double dose, salt off the water and fine sand that the wind carries up off the flats.
A regular visit keeps it from ever getting to that point. Every clean we wipe down the window tracks and the screen doors, detail the shower glass before the salt etches it, and go hard on the floors where the sand collects, usually the hallway off the back door and the spot just inside wherever you come in from the beach. Doing it on a schedule means we're removing a thin layer each time instead of fighting a thick one twice a year. For a Tomakin house that's the difference between glass that stays clear and glass that goes permanently cloudy.
We use low-tox products throughout, which we find owners here care about because half the time the kids and the dog are coming straight in off the sand onto the same floors we've just done.
For the holiday places, a standing clean keeps it guest ready between bookings
Tomakin has a strong holiday-rental scene, and a lot of our regular work here's for owners who let their place out. A standing clean on a set schedule is a quieter cousin of the full changeover. If your Tomakin rental has a gap between guests, or it sits empty through the cooler months, a monthly maintenance clean stops the dust, the river damp and the salt from settling in while no one is watching it. Then when the booking does come in, the place is already most of the way there and the changeover is a quick reset rather than a rescue.
Because we run Tomakin in the same trip as Broulee and Mossy Point, we can usually slot your regular visit into the day we're already down this way, which keeps it efficient and keeps the price fair. If you own here but live elsewhere, that matters, you want someone who is already in town and reliable, not someone making a special trip and charging for it.
Carpets and floors get the attention the beach traffic demands
The family homes in Tomakin are the ones that really feel the floors. Sand finds its way into carpet and stays there, and it's the grit underfoot that wears a carpet out faster than anything, well before it ever looks dirty. On a regular clean we vacuum properly, edges and all, not a quick run over the middle, because the sand sits at the skirting and under the lounge where a rushed job never reaches.
When the carpet needs more than a vacuum, plenty of Tomakin households add a carpet clean onto their regular run, often after a busy stretch when the place has had a houseful through the holidays. It's a natural pairing here. We can build it into your schedule so the carpets get a proper clean a couple of times a year on top of the routine cleans, which on a sandy beach-town floor is about right to keep them honest.
A local team you'll actually recognise
We're a small local crew, Tyson, Shanice and Lisa, and we're Indigenous-owned and based just up the road in Batemans Bay. We started in 2023 and we've built this from doing good work for people who then told their neighbours, which in a town the size of Tomakin is most of how it goes. We're police-checked and fully insured, we're open seven days, and we hold a 5.0 from 110 Google reviews. For a regular clean that means the person letting themselves into your Tomakin place each fortnight is someone known, checked and the same face every time.
If you want to get a regular clean sorted for your Tomakin home or holiday place, give us a call on 0479 184 498 and we'll work out a schedule and a fixed per-visit price that fits the house.
