Long Jetty stretches along the lake shore south of The Entrance, a strip of older fibro and brick cottages, walk up flats and newer unit blocks behind a main street that has slowly filled with cafes and shops. It rents well and turns over regularly.
Older, affordable stock is the norm, which means original kitchens, small bathrooms and aluminium windows that have been through several tenancies. Lake side damp encourages surface mould in bathrooms with weak ventilation and moss on shaded paving. Agents still run the full exit checklist, and the oven and grout decide most of it.
What a Long Jetty bond 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, surface mould treated, grout scrubbed
- Windows, sills, tracks and screens
- Laundry, tub and behind the washing machine cavity
- Walls spot cleaned, skirting boards and switches wiped
- Floors vacuumed and mopped throughout
Pricing depends on size and condition. One and two bedroom flats and small cottages make up most of the work and sit at the lower end of the range. Treat any figure as guide pricing only and see our bond cleaning cost guide for typical ranges.
You can add carpet steam cleaning if your lease asks for it, a dedicated bathroom and tile clean where the grout has worked hard, or window cleaning on its own. The base scope sits on our end of lease cleaning page, and short-notice jobs are covered on the last minute bond clean page.
We also cover nearby The Entrance, Killarney Vale and Shelly Beach.
Frequently asked questions
Will a cheap quote get me through the inspection?
Sometimes, but a quote well below the normal range is usually buying fewer hours, and the hours come off the slow jobs: the oven, grout, tracks and skirting. Those are exactly what agents check.
Can I book just the kitchen and bathroom?
Yes. They are the two rooms that decide most inspections, and plenty of people handle the rest themselves.
Will the clean guarantee my bond is returned?
No. The bond covers damage and rent as well as cleaning, so no honest cleaner promises it back. A checklist clean gives you the best chance of keeping cleaning out of the argument.
