Moving out in Southbank

Detailed cleaning for apartment living where every finish is visible

Southbank is dominated by apartment living, where relatively compact floorplans can still contain a high concentration of cabinetry, glass, bathrooms, balcony-door tracks and modern finishes.

ExitMaid structures each Southbank Vacate Clean around both the apartment and the building itself, with access, parking and lift arrangements considered alongside the detailed cleaning scope.

  • Detailed kitchen, bathroom and wet-area cleaning.
  • Internal cabinetry, built-ins, skirtings, glass and accessible tracks.
  • Final quality inspection before property handover.
  • Relevant property-condition observations documented where required.

Southbank properties

Compact floorplans can still be highly detail-heavy

Apartment size tells only part of the story. Kitchens, bathrooms, glazing, storage and balcony access can create significant detail within a comparatively small footprint.

01

High-rise apartments

High-rise properties often combine compact living spaces with extensive built-in storage, glass and modern wet areas, while access through lifts and secure entry must also be coordinated.

02

Larger apartments

Two- and three-bedroom apartments can include multiple bathrooms, larger kitchens, study zones, balconies and more extensive internal glazing, increasing the amount of detailed cleaning required.

03

Premium residences

Higher-spec interiors can include stone, gloss cabinetry, large shower screens and expansive glass where fingerprints, residue and surface marking become particularly visible at handover.

Vacate cleaning scope

Detailed cleaning across the surfaces that define apartment presentation

Once an apartment is empty, cabinetry edges, fingerprints, internal glass, shower screens, tracks and floor finishes become much more noticeable. Our Vacate Cleaning service is structured around that final-inspection perspective.

  • Kitchen cleaning including cabinetry, stovetop, rangehood exterior and oven interior.
  • Bathrooms, showers, screens, vanities, fixtures and toilets cleaned and sanitised.
  • Built-ins, shelving, skirting boards and accessible surfaces throughout.
  • Internal windows, sills and accessible window and sliding-door tracks.
  • Vacuuming and mopping throughout with a final presentation check.

Property condition reporting

Modern apartment finishes can still develop permanent marking

Hard-water staining, etched shower glass, worn silicone, chipped coatings and other permanent surface marks can remain after professional cleaning, even in relatively modern apartments.

Where relevant, ExitMaid can document those observations at completion to provide clearer context around the difference between property condition and an unresolved cleaning item.

Hard-water staining Glass & surface marking Aged grout & silicone Permanent finish wear General wear & tear

Carpeted bedrooms?

Coordinate Carpet Steam Cleaning with the same apartment visit

Carpeted bedrooms and living areas can be professionally steam cleaned alongside your Southbank Vacate Clean, reducing the need to coordinate another contractor, another building entry and another lift or parking arrangement.

Where professional Carpet Steam Cleaning forms part of the booking, applicable carpet-related cleaning concerns are also covered under our Bond Back Guarantee.

Can you work with booked lifts or restricted building access?
