Verdict
Customer experiences with Bond Clean Expert are notably divided. A large portion of clients praise the company for punctual, high-quality bond cleans, effective carpet and pest treatments, and successful property inspections that secured full bond returns. Conversely, a frequent pattern of complaints centres on unexpected price increases requested on the day of service and inconsistent cleaning results, leaving some customers feeling stressed and requiring rectification work. Potential clients may benefit from clarifying all quote inclusions and potential extra charges in writing prior to booking.
Very happy with the bond clean! Good communication as I had to delay the clean a few times so they understood. Everything was done very well and to a high standard. The place was left spotless and everything was completed perfectly. Really happy with the service and would definitely recommend!
The worker showed up on time spent most of his time on the phone chatting to someone. The overall job was to my satisfaction. He completed the work within the time frame.
I would not recommend Bond Clean Expert based on our experience. We booked them after they advertised a “7-Day 100% Bond Back Guarantee” and provided a fixed quote for our bond clean. A major issue arose while the clean was already underway. Midway through the scheduled bond clean, we were told that we needed to pay an additional $260 or the… Read more
cleaners would not continue the clean. This placed us in an extremely difficult position because the property needed to be cleaned within the required timeframe and, once the clean was already underway, there was effectively no practical opportunity to cancel and organise another bond cleaner at short notice. We felt we had little realistic choice but to agree to the additional charge. This was particularly concerning given that their original advertising stated “No hidden costs”, “No hourly charges”, “No time limits”, and that customers would never be asked to pay for “extra hours” to complete their bond clean. The problems then continued after the clean. The real estate agent identified a localised mark on a wall. Under Bond Clean Expert's advertised guarantee, their cleaners returned to rectify it. Following that re-clean, what had previously been a localised area became substantially larger and sticky, and the painted surface was visibly damaged. Bond Clean Expert subsequently acknowledged in writing that during their re-clean “the existing sticky substance spread across that area.” The property manager has since independently obtained a quote for $660 to repair and repaint the damaged wall. Despite being provided with photographs, video evidence, correspondence, and the repair quote, Bond Clean Expert has refused responsibility. They subsequently referred to the warranty attendance as a “forceful reclean”, despite the re-clean being requested under the guarantee they had expressly advertised as part of the service. For me, the biggest concerns were the unexpected demand for a further $260 after the clean had already commenced, the damage occurring during the subsequent re-clean, and the way the business handled the matter after being notified. Given the representations made to us regarding fixed pricing, no hidden costs, and a “7-Day 100% Bond Back Guarantee”, our experience was very different from what we expected when booking the service. Based on our experience, I would not use Bond Clean Expert again.

I wish I had read the reviews before hiring this scam of a company. It’s been a full year since they “bond cleaned”, but the photos popped up in my memories and I was curious what their reviews were like after being so disappointed and absolutely fleeced. Colour me shocked there isn’t a google business page. It truly was the most expensive bond… Read more
clean I’ve ever had the displeasure of paying for. Quoted $849, ended up paying a total of $969.
It shocks and saddens me that almost every review mentions demands for extra money AFTER quoting and full payment had been made and cleaning had already started. This solidified my suspicion that we had been scammed. We received a call saying there was excessive cat fur and a demand for $120 or they would not continue the cleaning. Considering the prep clean I did, I knew there wasn’t excessive cat fur, but I was half asleep and couldn’t be bothered to argue as I had already paid them. I was concerned they would refuse to give me back my money if I said no.
I wish I did refuse as they clearly use money paid as leverage to bleed more out of you. Most people don’t have a spare $800 to hire someone else last minute knowing what they’ve already paid will be tied up for potentially months, which I would wager is these scammers exact thoughts. I will certainly be contacting the ACCC after reading these reviews and realising I was severely duped.
On top of this scam they apparently perform consistently, the clean was subpar at best. After checking the clean the day of, realising they were already gone before 1pm despite all the extra cleaning they claimed to do because of the cat fur, I then had to bring my own cleaning supplies back the next day to fix the job they got paid handsomely to do.
Window sills and skirting boards were untouched, door handles had a weird film on them, and the front door panels weren’t cleaned, the hot plate hadn’t been cleaned properly or wiped where it meets the countertop. I cleaned the hot plate with good old oven cleaner, which came up perfectly in under two minutes. You’d think professional cleaners would know these things. Basic expectation of bond cleaning completely unmet. They had tried to extort more money for extra wall cleaning too, which I refused as I had already sugar soap scrubbed every wall.
If that wasn’t enough, there were a few personal items my partner forgot to grab from our wardrobe. They were gone, obviously. Every other bond cleaner I’ve had has put any personal items found in the house in a pile in the garage & texted me to let me know. I questioned whether our belongings were put somewhere, thrown out, or taken. We got no response.
Photos of lack of cleaning were taken on 12th Oct 2024, the clean was performed on the 11th Oct 2024.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I strongly recommend Bond Clean Expert — they are excellent deep oven cleaners and did a great job with our bond clean. Very professional, thorough, and reliable service!
We were recommended to Bond Clean Expert by our property seller’s agent at Coastal on the Gold Coast. They arrived on time to provide a quote and were professional and courteous throughout the process. The team completed a deep clean of our large 5-bedroom property. The results were excellent — the house was left spotless and met all standards.… Read more
We were very happy with the outcome and appreciated the smooth, reliable service.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a high-quality bond clean on the Gold Coast.
Omg, they arrived promptly and completed my pest control at my property. After about a month, I noticed some ants in my backyard, so I called them for assistance. They quickly returned and re-completed the job without any hassle. In my opinion, they are very friendly and approachable people, making the whole experience much more pleasant.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY…hired them to do a bond clean which was done yesterday 13/7/26. Charged $1129, called mid morning and wanted to charge another $450 to do the blinds which were supposed to be done in the original quote! Told them no that it was in the quote! when we walked in today all blinds were put up, when I rolled them down, not one of… Read more
the 10 lots of blinds had been cleaned, not one skirting board wiped down, all walls were not spot cleaned and the best one ! Carpets were not cleaned. Had to spend another $250 on a carpet cleaner who did a great job and spend 5 hours cleaning what had not been done. Disgusting to think they can actually rip off people like this. Very p*ssed off to say the least

I was quite anxious about finding a bond cleaning company that could accommodate a next-day booking, but Bond Clean Expert made the process easy. The team was friendly and professional, and Dhruv contacted me the day before to confirm the appointment. On the day, they arrived early and did a fantastic, thorough bond clean. The landlord was… Read more
extremely satisfied with the result. Excellent service from start to finish—definitely deserving of 5 stars. Thank you!
If I could give a no star rating I would. DO NOT USE THESE CLEANERS!!! I'm a landlord and upon the tenants vacating they engaged their services for a bond clean charging them $1500.00 (rip off). For that price you'd expect that the house would sparkle. However, the state the house was left in I would never be able to re-rent in that condition.… Read more
They must be blind as they didn't even clean the most obvious of things, eg. light switches were left filthy, kitchen splash back had grease dripping which was not cleaned as was the rangehood and pantry door. Windows, verticals and screens were untouched. I contacted the tenants to let them know that the cleaners had done a horrendous job of cleaning the house. They requested photos and an email outlining what was missed which I did. Apparently they have a 7 day guarantee period. I believe they requested extra money but I don't know if this was paid by the tenant. Well they did come back but didn't make any difference to the cleanliness of the house. There was still marks on the doors, the windows weren't touched, light switches were again overlooked. The photo below is just an example of the way they clean. There is no attention to detail. It's not just the vacuuming and moping. I told the tenants that they had been ripped off by these cleaners and to never use them again.

DO NOT USE BOND CLEAN EXPERT. We paid for a bond clean, complained about the quality, gave the company a second chance with a reclean, and still ended up having to clean the property ourselves and hire professional cleaners to finish the job. Carpets weren’t cleaned, grime was left throughout bathrooms, windows were smeared, skirting boards and… Read more
light switches were untouched, the oven still had residue, and dirt remained in places that should have been obvious to any cleaner.
The fact that we needed a reclean was disappointing. The fact that the reclean still failed to address all of the issues was unacceptable.
In the end, we paid for a bond clean and received a rushed surface clean that required another 10 hours of professional cleaning to rectify.
Without question the worst cleaning service we have ever used.

I have been recommended Sam by my property manager from Coastal Property Management on the Gold Coast. They are great detailers for bond cleaning work. They cleaned my large apartment to a very high standard, and I am very satisfied with the result.
Exceptional cleaning service! My 1-bedroom furnished studio was left in immaculate condition. The bathroom and living area were spotless, and the carpet steam cleaning was top-notch—no stains, no odors, just fresh and clean. The team went above and beyond to ensure everything was inspection-ready. Highly recommended for anyone needing a stress-free bond clean!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY Pretty much a copy paste experience of the other reviews of this company unfortunately, I wish I had seen these reviews before booking them. I booked for a 2 bed, 2 bath new apartment Bond clean, I advised I didn't need carpets or floors cleaning. Paid $500 up front. The cleaner turned up 20 minutes late to the… Read more
appointment.
Unfortunately my move out date got pushed back so I couldn't get everything out of the apartment but everything was packed up in boxes, bags in middle of living area with a 1M space around it at least to access windows/walls/skirting.
After a few hours at the property I received a call saying that they needed me to pay an extra $200, they quote the reason being they needed to clean the dishwasher, microwave, there were more windows than expected (new apartment with floor to ceiling windows) and there was pet fur. I told them that they don't need to clean the windows are they are clean and I'll clean the dishwasher & Microwave. They then said it is then considered a partial clean and there is no guarantee on bond return without payment. I said they can surely guarantee the areas they are cleaning wont come back with comments and they said no, there is no guarantee unless I pay additional.
I told them no. I came home that afternoon to find that they had started cleaning the windows, but stopped half way leaving really visible streaks of cleaning solution across them, streaks across the oven door, streaks across the cook top & grease present in the range hood. Bathroom grouting was still dirty, Laundry wasn't mopped at all. I emailed them and said these are the areas they were supposed to clean and the windows which weren't dirty before are now. They did come back the next day to "rectify" the issues, the streaks were gone (just) but the grout was still dirty.
Inspection came and went, they found dirt in draws, along sliding draw runners, the grouting as previously mentioned, more grease in the oven, dirt/dust and a little bit of pet fluff in the oven vent, Bins not cleaned around them, marks & dirt on walls, skirtings not cleaned.
Company response is simple that the bond wasn't guaranteed and they wouldn't be back to fix. Paid the estate agents recommended cleaners to come back and fix their work for another $380. Should have gone with them in the first place.
The previous year I did a bond clean myself in 8 hours of a similar unit (inclusive of windows and balcony) I did a better job in 1 day than these guys. I did this because I had to work and wanted assurance things wouldn't be missed but these guys don't know what they are doing.
This business is a scam and rely on you being too busy and stressed to question them or their quality.
Highly impressed with the quality of work! Daniel and his team carried out a complete end-of-lease clean along with carpet steam cleaning for three rooms and the hallway. They also did a detailed flea and tick treatment as required. Everything was done to a very high standard—the house looked immaculate, and the carpets were refreshed and deodorized beautifully. Very punctual, professional, and easy to deal with. Would definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience! The team handled a complete end-of-lease clean for my property, including detailed flea and tick pest control and carpet shampooing for two rooms. The attention to detail was impressive—nothing was missed. The carpets looked refreshed and felt like new after the deodorizing treatment. The whole house was left in perfect condition. Very professional, punctual, and easy to deal with. Definitely a 5-star service!
absolutely disgusting. Required an extra $230 for blinds. $1200 in total for a home that was rented for 1 year. Asked for these to be left and this was unaccounted by them as it would not be a full bond clean. When asked to stop and leave and to find someone else was told that the $800 already paid was seized and would not be returned. Had no choice but to pay the extra. DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL. George

Follow-up · Real estate was not happy with clean
Absolute rip offs. One star! They deserve negative stats.Turned up to house extremely rude. Demanded full money prior to clean to start, had already paid 100 security to start. Then 20 mins later called demanding a further 1,300 or they would… Read more
leave. Left after 4 hrs barely did anything. Then lied said they were there all day and also following day, which they never turned up. Also broke curtains rods dents in walls, left cigarettes butts on the floor. Left the place in a worse condition due to their damage. Rude and dismissive when trying to communicate. Please dont use them BIG SCAMMERS. Then they ignore you. DISGUSTING!
Follow-up · Total disaster , couldnt even have decency to answer calls and messages. Rude and dodgy company... they will destroy property and not do the job plus steal!
Never, Never, Never use Bond Cleaning Experts in Toowoomba. Sent a list of what needed to be done. Quoted a price. Day before cleaning extorted payment before arriving. 3 people arrived took photos and then left. Manager called and stated we… Read more
needed to pay another $350 otherwise they would complete the cleaning. Over a barrel and paid the extra money. 3 people arrived and were there for 2 hours. Nothing they quoted was completed. Real estate refused to accept clean. Refused to return and complete the work. $1150.00 down the grain. Scammers have complained to consumer affairs.
Follow-up · There was no refund offered. They quoted $750.00 and then asked for a further $500.00. We had to have the clean finished by the next day so we paid. The carpet, the cupboards in bedrooms and kitchen. Skirting boards and windows were not cleaned. We reported them to Consumer affairs but nothing was ever reported back to us.

Positive reviews
Thorough job and worked well as a team. Pleasant guys and very professional. Communication before during and after the bond clean was great. Great price, great guys and great outcome. Recommend for any bond clean. Thanks team.
Team Sam is great! They are very detailed bond cleaners. I was recommended to them by my agent, and they came to our rescue the very next day at the last minute. They spent the full day at the property and completed the service to an extremely high standard. The property was physically inspected, and I was very satisfied with the results. Highly recommended!
This company did a complete bond clean & carpet shampoo and did a fantastic job. They were easy to communicate with & the process was seamless. I would highly recommend them.
Negative reviews
I hired them for a deep clean of my home. The team arrived on time, came fully equipped, and were extremely polite and respectful of my space. kitchen and bathrooms looks nice, and the floors are spotless. Communication when booking was fast and simple, and the pricing was okay but not clear, asked for extra $$ for little bit of wall cleaning, but was not done very well. Overall okay.
Absolutely disgraceful, tenant paid an exhorbitant fee for small unit to be cleaned inside only. The cleaners did not clean under the fridge, stove, missed a cupboard. Extra money was paid for sofa which looked as though had not been touched, sprayed with water if that, under cushions and sofa was missed. Windows still had mould. Rubbish left. Shower area not cleaned and bathroom floor untouched.
These guys did a great job on my bond clean and have good customer service, however just be aware of any upcharges they try to push on you once they enter your property. I paid $590 for a small 1-bedroom unit clean, and when they entered the unit I received a call saying I will need to pay an extra $350 for additional services - ie. said my walls… Read more
needed a chemical wash, etc.. I was told "You will not get your full bond back if you don't pay this" and "It's us against the real estate, not us against you." I pushed back and told them to only move forward with the clean I had already paid for. That afternoon my real estate agent contacted me stating the unit was lovely and I am getting my full bond back....without paying the extra $350!

carpet was not completely stain free but this is out of their control and the stains were probably old. but the house smelt so much fresher.
Overall, I was very happy with the bond clean. The standard of cleaning was very good, and the team did a great job throughout the property. The only issue I had was with the pricing. I was originally quoted $1,070, but on the day I was advised that there would be an additional $450 to clean the walls and remove pet hair. I understand that these… Read more
extra tasks may incur an additional cost, and I’m not unhappy about paying for extra work when it’s needed. However, I feel this should have been identified and included in the original quote, rather than being brought up halfway through the job.
As I was already running short on funds, the unexpected additional $450 was difficult and not what I had budgeted for.
Apart from the pricing issue, I was genuinely happy with the quality of the cleaning and the work that was completed. I would just recommend being clearer and more upfront about any potential additional costs when providing the initial quote.
