A good clean means a good night’s sleep

Australia is fast becoming a nation of renters which means home cleaning is one of the top three issues keeping many people awake at night.

The fear of not getting their bond back – or worse, being blacklisted as poor tenants – means many are turning to professional cleaners for peace of mind. The demand for end of lease cleans has never been stronger according to James’ Home Services, one of Australia’s leading residential cleaning companies.

CEO Mike Dowling said more than 30 percent of Australian households now live in rented digs and they often have thousands of dollars tied up in a security deposit.

"They need that money to move to a new home but, more importantly, they are frightened of getting a poor reputation and not being able to rent in the future," he said.

“Generally, the standards both tenants and landlords expect are getting higher and people are avoiding disputes by calling in professional cleaners who have the skill and equipment to do the job required immediately.

“It can be an even bigger issue when you have pets and the bonds involved are often bigger too. Some tenants want to reassure their landlords or property managers by showing them that professionals have done the work. For others, it’s just a huge job they can offload while they are busy dealing with the rest of the move.

“Most professional cleaning services will back their work. Our Gold Medal Service Guarantee is one of the best because we ensure you can speak to a real person in Australia who can identify your needs and the service you require, organise a free quote at a time that best suits you and we turn up when we say we will every time. We also offer a 7 Day workmanship guaranteed so if you’re not satisfied, we will come and fix for free at no extra cost.”

Dowling said end of lease cleaning was much more extensive that a regular clean because it tackles all those heavy duty jobs like carpet shampooing and wall cleaning, or cleaning the oven and inside the light fittings – things you simply don’t do every week. 

“I’ve been in the cleaning industry for almost a quarter of a century and know that I have some of the most skilled people in the industry,” said Mr Dowling, who purchased James’ Home Services in October 2015. 

"They have the skill and equipment to do the work to a better standard and in a fraction of the time. We make it our business to work out exactly what the customer wants and tailor our services to meet the customer’s needs.”
