As we tackle deep cleaning and end-of-lease jobs across Perth with our small crew, this checklist is your roadmap to delivering top-notch results. Our reputation hinges on your consistency, especially as we gear up to serve company owners with commercial cleaning in Perth. Whether it’s a renter’s move-out or a future office overhaul, here’s how to prepare and clean like pros—keeping us ahead of the game.
1. Preparation Is Everything
Every successful clean starts before you arrive on site. Preparation is about equipping your team with the right tools, chemicals, safety gear, and job knowledge to hit the ground running. A poorly prepared team wastes time and risks missing important areas. Setting clear expectations and planning ahead makes every job smoother. stepping onto a job site, preparation sets the tone:
✅ Location – Check the property address to confirm job start times the night before.
✅ Travel Time – Plan travel times with Google Maps (add a buffer for traffic) and arrive 10 mins earlier.
✅ Job status – Review the job and the cleaning scope (End of lease, deep clean or a regular clean)
✅ Note – Check client notes or special requests (e.g. pet hair removal, heavy grease build-up, wall deep clean, window cleaning, blinds, etc.).
✅ Pack and inspect cleaning tools & equipment (mops, scrubbers, vacuums, PPE gear)
✅ Stock chemical supplies – Make sure you have all the chemicals.
✅ Hygiene—All the cleaning equipment (vacuum, mops, brushes, microfiber cloths) must be cleaned and ready to use.
✅ Photos- Must sure to take before photos and video and upload to the google drive folder then inform the manager.
✅ Assign roles based on skill level (senior cleaner for oven/bathroom, junior for general)
2. Keep It Professional On-Site
When working in client properties, professionalism isn’t optional—it’s the brand. Your cleaners represent your business, and how they behave on-site impacts your reputation and customer trust. From attire to attitude, every detail matters.
👕 Uniforms – Always wear a neat uniform or branded shirt. If you don’t have a uniform, wear a clean black or white shirt. Make sure they are clean, smell good, and are presentable. Use a body spray if you prefer.
📱 Phones off or on silent—Avoid distractions and personal calls.
😌 Respect the property—don’t use the client’s appliances or bathrooms.
🤐 Keep conversations respectful—no swearing or personal jokes.
🧍♂️ Be visible and polite—if owners or agents drop in, greet them professionally
🧠 Remember: You are not just cleaning a house—you’re representing a brand and a company.
3. Teamwork Makes the Clean Work
A successful clean is rarely a solo job. Encouraging good teamwork leads to faster, higher-quality results. Each cleaner should understand their responsibilities while supporting others to keep the job flowing smoothly.
📝 Start each job with a 2-minute team huddle
⚡️Focus and finish hard jobs within the first few hours. You must schedule your tasks to avoid unnecessary time-wasting and save enough time at the end of the job to check details.
🚀 Break the team into zones or roles
🧹 Encourage experienced staff to guide newer members
📸 Use photo proof before & after (especially for bond returns)
💡 Don’t micromanage—but don’t leave people unaccountable either.
4. Follow a Proven Cleaning Flow
A step-by-step approach ensures no area is missed and improves efficiency. Without a structured flow, your team may jump between tasks, waste time, or overlap efforts. Following a consistent method keeps everyone aligned and maximises productivity.
