Shelly Beach sits on the headland between Bateau Bay and The Entrance, a small ocean side suburb of houses and low rise units with a golf course and the surf club at its centre. Holiday letting runs alongside long term rentals here.
Ocean exposure means salt on windows, screens, balustrades and outdoor surfaces, and sand through door tracks and entries. Units facing the water pick up the most. The older houses carry original kitchens and bathrooms, while properties that run as holiday lets usually need extra time in the kitchen because they have been used hard in short bursts.
What a Shelly Beach bond clean covers
The scope follows standard agent checklists rather than a promise about your bond:
- Oven, cooktop and rangehood degreased
- Cupboards and drawers inside and out
- Bathrooms descaled, screens and grout scrubbed
- Windows, sliding doors, tracks and screens, salt and sand cleared
- Balconies and entries swept, glass cleaned where reachable
- Walls spot cleaned, skirting boards and light fittings
- Floors vacuumed and mopped throughout
Quotes are built on size and condition rather than a flat rate. Units sit at the lower end of the range and ocean side houses higher, with condition moving the number further. Treat any figure as guide pricing only and see our bond cleaning cost guide for typical ranges.
Add carpet steam cleaning for carpeted bedrooms, a deeper bathroom and tile clean if the grout needs it, or a move in clean on the place you are heading to. See end of lease cleaning for the base scope and last minute bond cleans if time is short.
We also cover nearby Bateau Bay, The Entrance and Long Jetty.
Frequently asked questions
Does salt really need more than a wipe?
Yes. Salt residue spreads when dry wiped, so glass and frames are washed and squeegeed. It is standard work in ocean side streets.
The unit is let to holiday guests in summer. Can a clean be timed between bookings?
Often, but say so upfront. A tight turnaround changes scheduling rather than scope.
Can the cleaner guarantee my bond?
No one can. Your agent and landlord decide against the condition report. The cleaners we work with clean to the agent's checklist, which is the standard the inspection uses.
