End of lease and make-good cleaning in Sydney, NSW
Sydney has the deepest and most fragmented commercial cleaning market in the country, spread from the CBD towers through the tech and creative tenancies of Surry Hills and Alexandria, out to Parramatta's second CBD and the industrial belts of Western Sydney.
Commercial make-good is a one-off job with a hard deadline and a landlord inspecting the result, which makes the scope the whole ballgame. Read the make-good clause of your lease before you get quotes: it usually defines the condition the tenancy must be returned in, and that drives whether you need a clean, a clean plus carpet replacement, or a full strip-out.

Local detail for Sydney
After-hours building access is the practical constraint in Sydney's CBD and North Sydney towers: most require registered contractor inductions and access cards through building management, so allow lead time before a new cleaner's first shift.

Checklist before you sign in Sydney
- 1Send the make-good clause to the cleaner so the quote matches the lease obligation.
- 2Book the clean after the furniture and cabling removal, not before.
- 3Get the quote as a fixed price with a written inclusion list, not an hourly estimate.
- 4Ask whether a return visit is included if the landlord's inspection flags items.
- 5Take dated photos before and after — they settle bond and make-good disputes.
FAQs
- How much does commercial end of lease cleaning cost?
- It is quoted per job, driven by floor area, floor type, kitchen and bathroom count, and how much residue the fitout left behind. A fixed price with a written inclusion list is the only fair way to compare quotes.
- Is carpet cleaning included?
- Not always. Steam extraction is often listed separately. If your lease requires professionally cleaned carpets on handover, ask for it to be an itemised line with a certificate you can pass to the landlord.
- What if the landlord rejects the clean?
- Ask upfront whether a rectification visit is included and for how long after handover. Reputable operators will return once to address specific items on an inspection list.
