Exit Cleaners' Bond Back Guarantee
At Exit Cleaners, we understand how important it is to secure your full bond refund. That’s why we offer a 72-Hour Bond Back Guarantee for all eligible End of Lease cleans.
This guarantee protects genuine customers whose bond return is at risk due to valid, verifiable cleaning oversights, not for concerns raised late or unrelated to our service scope.
How the Guarantee Works
When you book an End of Lease Cleaning service with Exit Cleaners, your clean is covered by our Bond Back Guarantee, subject to the following conditions:
1. Confirm Cleaning Requirements in Advance
Before booking, confirm all cleaning requirements outlined in your lease or requested by your real estate agent. Ensure these align with our End of Lease Cleaning Checklist (available at exitcleaners.com.au/checklist).
If any additional tasks are required, you must:
- Select them as extras when booking, or
- Notify our team before your appointment for custom confirmation and pricing.
2. Inspection & Notification
You have 72 hours (3 days) after the clean is completed to arrange an inspection with your agent and notify us of any issues. You must provide:
- A formal inspection report outlining failed cleaning items.
- Clear photographic evidence of each area requiring attention.
We will assess the claim and confirm if the issue falls within the original booking scope.
3. Complimentary Re-Clean (Once Only)
If the issue is valid and within scope, Exit Cleaners will return once to re-clean the specific areas at no extra cost. This re-clean must occur within 5 business days, subject to scheduling availability.
Conditions That Void the Guarantee
The Bond Back Guarantee will be void if:
- Another cleaner is hired or the issue is resolved by a third party before Exit Cleaners is notified and given the chance to rectify.
- The property is altered by tradespeople, agents, or new tenants after our service, impacting cleanliness.
- The issue reported is outside the 72-hour window.
- The reported concern is not covered in your original booking or our checklist.
Late Notice Policy
If an issue is reported after the 72-hour window:
- A $95 late notice fee will apply.
- Additional cleaning may be quoted as a new service and is subject to availability.
Delayed reporting limits our ability to assess the property condition fairly due to:
- Dust resettlement
- Trades or inspections
- Property access by third parties
Exclusions
This guarantee does not apply to:
- Services not booked or listed on our checklist.
- Permanent stains or damage (e.g. mould, rust, smoke, hard water, grease, nicotine).
- Surfaces deemed uncleanable due to material deterioration or age.
- Items listed in our Excluded Services List, including walls, ceilings, garages, balconies, or outdoor areas (unless booked separately).
- Situations where rubbish, personal items, or furniture remain at the property.
- Properties that are not fully vacant at the time of service.
Use of Photos (Internal Only)
Photos taken during or after the cleaning are for internal compliance documentation only.
Exit Cleaners reserves the sole discretion over whether these images are shared. We are not obligated to release them to clients, agents, or third parties, especially in cases where:
- No valid claim has been made,
- The 72-hour Bond Guarantee window has expired, or
- The concern falls outside our service scope.
This ensures the integrity of our internal records and protects staff from misuse or retrospective claims.
No Refunds, Only Re-Cleans
This guarantee provides one re-clean only. Refunds or credits are not issued under any circumstances, even if the re-clean is declined.
Misuse & False Claims Disclaimer
Exit Cleaners does not tolerate misuse of this guarantee. Any attempt to secure compensation through:
- False claims,
- Review threats,
- Public defamation, or
- Escalation without merit
may result in legal action for reputational damage or commercial loss. All communication is documented.
