Why presentation matters
Your property only gets one first impression
A professionally presented home can feel brighter, fresher and better cared for. Our role is to help every room look its best before the camera arrives and buyers walk through the door.
Stronger buyer impressions
Buyers notice kitchens, bathrooms, windows, flooring and presentation details immediately.
Less preparation stress
We coordinate the cleaning around your campaign timeline so you can focus on the rest of the sale process.

Completely customisable:
This is a quote-only service rather than a packaged clean. The scope can be
expanded, reduced or refocused so your budget is directed toward the areas that
will make the greatest presentation difference.
Quote-only by design
Your property, priorities and budget shape the service
Pre-sale properties vary enormously. Some need a complete top-to-bottom presentation clean, while others need concentrated attention on kitchens, bathrooms, windows, flooring or key buyer-facing areas.
We will recommend what we believe will make the greatest presentation difference, then work with you to refine the scope before providing a fixed-price quotation.
Additional presentation services
Bring the whole property together
Where required, we can quote additional services alongside the main clean to create a more complete result.
Carpet steam cleaning
Refresh carpets before photography, open homes and buyer inspections.
Exterior window cleaning
Improve natural light and exterior presentation where access allows.
Tile and grout cleaning
Target tired wet areas, flooring and presentation-sensitive tiled spaces.
Garden clean-up
Improve street appeal and outdoor presentation before campaign photography.
Pressure washing
Suitable for selected outdoor surfaces, paths and presentation areas.
CampaignCare

CampaignCare
Maintain the presentation after the initial clean
Your main Pre-Sale Presentation Clean prepares the property for its first major campaign milestone. Where the home remains occupied, experiences regular foot traffic or has a longer sales campaign, it may benefit from targeted return visits.
CampaignCare is designed specifically to refresh the property before priority moments such as open homes, auction day, additional photography or important private inspections.
- Bathrooms, kitchen surfaces and high-touch areas.
- Visible glass, mirrors and presentation marks.
- Vacuuming, mopping and floor presentation.
- Entry areas and buyer-facing spaces.

Frequently asked questions
Pre-Sale Cleaning FAQs
When should I book a pre-sale clean?
Ideally, book the clean after major repairs, maintenance and decluttering are complete, but before professional photography or the first open home. We can coordinate timing around your agent, stylist and photographer.
Is pre-sale cleaning the same as a regular house clean?
No. A pre-sale clean is more detailed and presentation focused. It targets the surfaces, rooms and visual details that are most noticeable in listing photography and buyer inspections.
Can you clean an occupied home before it is listed?
Yes. We can clean both occupied and vacant properties. For occupied homes, we will confirm access, personal belongings and the agreed presentation areas before the booking.
Should I book the clean before or after property styling?
In most cases, the main clean is completed before styling is installed. A smaller final presentation or touch-up clean may then be useful after styling, trades or photography preparation.
Can you work directly with my real estate agent?
Yes. We can coordinate access, timing and service information with your agent or nominated campaign contact.
Do you offer packaged pricing?
No. Pre-Sale Presentation Cleaning is offered on a quote-only basis because every property, campaign and budget is different. Once the scope has been agreed, we provide a fixed-price quotation so the inclusions and cost are clear before work begins.
Can I customise the service to suit my budget?
Yes. We can recommend a complete presentation scope, then work with you to add, remove or prioritise items. This allows the available budget to be directed toward the areas that matter most for the property and sales campaign.
Can carpet steam cleaning and windows be included?
Yes. Carpet steam cleaning, selected window cleaning and other presentation services can be quoted alongside the main pre-sale clean.
What is CampaignCare?
CampaignCare is a targeted return-cleaning service designed to maintain or refresh presentation after the initial Pre-Sale Presentation Clean. It can be scheduled before key open homes, auction day, additional photography or other important campaign milestones, subject to location, timing and team availability.
