That year has proved that it\u2019s crucial to be flexible, go with the flow, take risks, and most of all &#8211; know your clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a business that has thrived for more than ten years now, we\u2019ve learned how our customers think, the things they love, and that excite them, and most importantly &#8211; their individual needs. And all of this has helped us not only to stay afloat but to continue providing the best possible service to our clientele and the best possible working conditions to our franchise partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve gathered all the essential data* concerning cleaning services in Australia including, but not limited to &#8211; the future of cleaning, the average prices for the services, factors that affect all this, and much much more.

This is a deep, top to bottom cleaning that is most suitable for tenants moving out of their rented properties, landlords who want to prepare a house or a flat for the next tenants, as well as for letting agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And last but not least are <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/oven-cleaning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">oven<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/window-cleaning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">window cleaning<\/a><\/strong>.

While in many cases, the quote is entirely personalised depending on the customer, some determinants are almost always there when it comes to giving a quote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Time<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The time it would take for the cleaners to complete the cleaning is usually the most significant factor. The bigger the property and the more items they have to clean, the more time it takes. You can shorten the time by hiring, for example, two cleaners, but the rates will be double, so in the end, you pay the same amount of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Operational costs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After that, you have labour costs and taxes. Things that usually don\u2019t concern the client but do play a considerable role in forming a quote. Some commissions and taxes are added by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Cleaning necessities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You have extra consumables and supplies to take into account, like professional detergents and equipment. If the cleaning professionals are using the ones already on site, the price will be lower since they don\u2019t have to waste any of theirs and don\u2019t have to carry cleaning equipment around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Size of the property<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, some services, like end of lease cleaning, are determined by the size of the property. They\u2019re not charged by the hour, since the service itself needs to be extremely detailed. Even with an hourly-based cleaning, the property\u2019s size is quite important &#8211; the bigger the house, the more rooms the cleaner has to clean. Thus, more hours have to be booked. That\u2019s why, with hourly services, the client should provide a list of priorities. This way, the team will clean the most important things first and not waste time with low-priority tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Condition of the property<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The condition of the property is often overlooked when giving a quote. A property in less-than-perfect condition takes more time to be cleaned up to the highest standard. More detergents will be used, as well. A property that only needs a spruce up cleaning, regardless of its size, can cost a lot less than a one-bedroom property that hasn\u2019t been deeply cleaned for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Parking fees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, that\u2019s right. Parking fees and distance charges are usually not something you consider when booking a cleaning. But what people often don\u2019t think about is the equipment the cleaners have to bring. It\u2019s not only detergents. Sometimes the cleaning job requires heavy machinery that the cleaning team just cannot carry around long distances. That\u2019s why if you can\u2019t provide a parking space, the final price can be higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How_much_are_people_willing_to_pay_for_cleaning_services\">Do people really pay for this? How much are people willing to pay for cleaning services?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"332\" src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/How-much-are-people-willing-to-pay-for-cleaning-services.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14860\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/How-much-are-people-willing-to-pay-for-cleaning-services.png 750w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/How-much-are-people-willing-to-pay-for-cleaning-services-300x133.png 300w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/How-much-are-people-willing-to-pay-for-cleaning-services-360x159.png 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/noscript><\/div><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The cost of cleaning services is only reasonable if you see how the service benefits you. When we\u2019re talking about regular house cleaning, 98% of people agree with the cleaning rates. This can be because house cleaning saves you precious time, which you can invest in more important things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surprisingly, the percentage drops when we\u2019re talking about end of lease cleaning &#8211; 87% proceed with their booking. It\u2019s surprising because whether or not they get their bond back depends on the quality of cleaning. And the bonds are usually many times over the cost of the service. So, why are people not that keen on paying for a professional move-out clean? It can be because moving out already costs much, and some people are willing to take the risk and DIY this seemingly simple task. What\u2019s interesting to know is that we\u2019ve had many clients, who tried doing that, but failed the inspection and subsequently resorted to hiring a professional team to do the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<section class=\"section section--single-post\">\n\t\t<div class=\"related-article\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"related-article__title\">You may also like:<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article__title -->\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"related-article__body\">\n\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"related-article__image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/end-of-lease-cleaning-checklist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"End of Lease Cleaning Checklist\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/end-of-lease-cleaning-checklist-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"End of Lease Cleaning Checklist\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5120px) 100vw, 5120px\" title=\"End of Lease Cleaning Checklist\" \/><\/noscript><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure> <!-- \/.related-article__image -->\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"related-article__desc\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"badge-holder\">\n\t<span class=\"badge badge--\">Cleaning Guides<\/span>\n<\/div>  <!-- \/.badge-holder --> \n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/end-of-lease-cleaning-checklist\/\" class=\"short-text\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"End of Lease Cleaning Checklist\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tEnd of Lease Cleaning Checklist\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article__desc -->\n\t\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article__body -->\n\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.related-article -->\t\n\t<\/section> <!-- \/.section section--single-post -->\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Hidden_charges_nobody_talks_about\">Hidden charges nobody talks about<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Hidden-charges-nobody-talks-about.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Hidden-charges-nobody-talks-about.png 750w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Hidden-charges-nobody-talks-about-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Hidden-charges-nobody-talks-about-360x202.png 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/noscript><\/div><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As you have probably already noticed, many elements make up a cleaning service price. Some of them are obvious, while other costs are quite relative and can sneak up on you from nowhere. These unexpected expenses are often a cause for disputes with your provider. Make sure to ask your chosen company about these fees before you hire them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weekend fees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes companies charge a little extra when they have to work on weekends. It\u2019s not an uncommon practice, but sometimes they hide that fact. As long as it\u2019s not a huge fee and you\u2019re notified upfront, there\u2019s nothing wrong with rewarding a hard worker that has to work on a Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discrepancies based on size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most cleaning companies form the prices of some of their services (e.g. carpet cleaning) based on the local market\u2019s standard rates, in terms of room\/item sizes. So, when a carpeted room has a bigger size than most standard rooms, this can result in additional charges for the client. In most cases, this is noticeable on the spot, and at the last minute, this can lead to an uncomfortable conversation. Make sure to measure your spaces for services like carpet cleaning, tile cleaning, pressure cleaning and others of the kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Extended hours of work<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re booking a cleaning service, you usually get an estimate of the time it takes to perform it. This is a common practice in the industry, especially if the service is hourly-based. These estimates are based on tests conducted by experienced professionals on surfaces with a standard level of soiling. Even though they are relatively accurate, some elements are unpredictable, resulting in the cleaners needing more time or special equipment to finish the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cancellation fees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter how well you plan your week, sometimes unexpected things happen, and you may not be able to go ahead with your cleaning appointment. However, you may not know that most companies have cancellation fees, just like every hotel or other businesses working with bookings. While you\u2019re booking your service, make sure to inquire about the costs they have in case you have to reschedule. Most legitimate companies have no cancellation fees if you notify them at least 24 hours before the service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Details missed &amp; other misunderstandings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cleaning is not an exact science. Every company or contractor understands what the service involves and what is included in the basic package, as well as what is considered an extra. And if the client misses mentioning an important detail over the phone, it\u2019s natural for discrepancies to occur. Fortunately, most companies perform an inspection before the actual service, and any potential extras are discussed beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Takeaways\">Takeaways<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bullet-list bullet-list--check-blue\">\n\t\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><span class=\"icon-check\"><\/span>Many factors affect the final cost of house cleaning.<\/li><li><span class=\"icon-check\"><\/span>Often, the people who get a quote but don\u2019t proceed with the booking, don\u2019t have enough information on the price-forming factors.<\/li><li><span class=\"icon-check\"><\/span>Australians would prefer paying a professional to clean their home, so they can have more free time.<\/li><li><span class=\"icon-check\"><\/span>Most people prefer having their home regularly cleaned than having to book deep cleaning every once or twice a year.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<\/div> <!-- \/.bullet-list -->\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section section--single-post\">\n\t<div class=\"check-price-box check-price-box--certificates\">\n\t\t<div class=\"check-price-box__body\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"check-price-box__title\">Not enough time to get your house in shape?<\/h3> <!-- \/.check-price-box__title -->\n\n\t\t\t<p class=\"check-price-box__desc\">Let the professional cleaners deal with your chores<\/p> <!-- \/.check-price-box__desc -->\n\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"form form--full-width form--check-price dynamic-helper\">\n    <form class=\"default-check-price-form\" action=\"\">\n        <div class=\"form__inner\">\n            <div class=\"form__field the-postfield-wrap\">\n                <span class=\"icon-holder\">\n                    <i class=\"icon-pointer\"><\/i>\n                <\/span>\n\n                <input class=\"field the-postfield\" type=\"text\" name=\"postcode-field\" placeholder=\"Enter your post code\" data-service-type=\"Cleaning\" >\n                <span class=\"focus-label\"><\/span>\n                <div class=\"field-error-msg\">Add a valid postcode e.g. 3000<\/div> <!-- \/.field-error-msg -->\n            <\/div> <!-- \/.form__field -->\n\n            <div class=\"form__btn submit-wrapper-with-loader active\">\n                <div class=\"load-holder-lds-eclipse\">\n                    <div class=\"load-lds-eclipse\"><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n\n                <input class=\"btn btn--large checkpPricesSubmit\" name=\"check-prices-submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Get a quote\" rel=\"nofollow\" disabled>\n            <\/div> <!-- \/.form__btn -->\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.form__inner -->\n    <\/form>\n<\/div> <!-- \/.check-price-form -->\n\t\t\t<div class=\"certificates-holder\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<ul class=\"certificates certificates--small\">\n\t<li class=\"certificates__title\">We're certified:<\/li>\n\n\t<!-- <li><i class=\"cert-bicsc\"><\/i><\/li> -->\n\t<!-- <li><i class=\"cert-fwc\"><\/i><\/li> -->\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-safe-cantractor\"><\/i><\/li>\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-green-achiever\"><\/i><\/li>\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-chas\"><\/i><\/li>\n\t<li><i class=\"cert-fmc\"><\/i><\/li>\n<\/ul> <!-- \/.certificates -->\t\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.certificates-holder -->\n\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.check-price-box__body -->\n\n\t\t<div class=\"check-price-box__image\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\"  src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/fantasticservices-com-blog\/assets\/images\/check-price-box\/check-price-box-bg.png\" alt=\"Not enough time to get your house in shape?\"><\/noscript><\/div>\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.check-price-box__image -->\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section> <!-- \/.section section--single-post -->\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The main thing we learnt in 2020 is that there are many things outside our control.
