GOT QUESTIONS?

WE HAVE ANSWERS!

How far in advance should I book?

You can book as little as 24 hours in advance subject to availability. For recurring bookings or specific time slots, booking 3 to 5 days ahead gives you the best choice of available Pros.

Can I reschedule or cancel my booking?

Yes. Manage your booking through your Squeaky Lemon account. You can reschedule, skip, or cancel anytime — no lock-in contracts.

What happens if I need to cancel or change my booking?

Life happens — here's exactly how it works, no surprises.

More than 24 hours before your clean:
Cancel or change for free. No fees, no questions asked.

Less than 24 hours before your clean:
A cancellation fee of 50% of your booking total applies.

Less than 2 hours before your clean, or if you cancel on the spot:
A fee equal to 100% of your booking total applies. At this point your Pro has either already travelled to your property or is about to — this fee covers their committed time.

The easiest way to avoid fees is to let us know as early as possible.

Are there any hidden fees?

No. The price shown in the calculator is the price you pay. There are no call-out fees, travel fees, or service charges added at checkout. The only exception is a late cancellation fee if a booking is cancelled inside 24 hours.

When do I get charged?

For most services, your card is authorised the day before your clean to confirm payment — you are only charged once the job is complete.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

Only for End of Lease and Move-in / Move-out services, a 50% deposit will be applied once we have confirmed the service with you. The remaining balance will be processed after your service has been completed.

Will I be charged extra if the clean takes longer than expected?

No — not without your permission.

Our room-based services are results-based, not time-limited. Your Pro works through every task on the checklist until the job meets our standard, regardless of how long it takes.

When you book, you'll receive an estimated duration. This is a guideline — our Pros often finish faster.

If the clean runs over the estimate, here's exactly what happens:

  • Up to 1 hour over estimate — covered at no extra charge, every time.
  • More than 1 hour over estimate — we'll contact you first and confirm before any additional charges apply. You're always in control.

We call this our Fair-Go Policy. You'll never receive an unexpected bill.

Don’t wait until your place gets overwhelming.

See your price before you book. Pay only after the clean.

Calculate My Price

A comprehensive clean for the moments that mark a new chapter — moving into a home that feels truly yours from day one, or preparing a property for new occupants to the same standard you'd want to arrive to yourself. Room-based pricing, confirmed upfront, paid after the clean.

Every move deserves a clean start.

Whether you are moving into a new home and want every surface spotless before your furniture arrives, preparing a property for sale and need it presented at its absolute best, or handing over a home to new owners or tenants with confidence that nothing has been left behind — a Move-in / Move-out clean sets the right tone from the first moment anyone walks through the door.

Squeaky Lemon's Move-in / Move-out Cleaning service covers every space, surface, and fixture in the property. This is a full, systematic clean — inside all appliances, full bathroom descaling, wardrobe interiors, blind cleaning, wall marks, window tracks, skirting boards, door frames, and more. Nothing is skipped. Every room is returned to the condition it deserves to be received in.

This service is available to anyone involved in a property transition: buyers wanting a clean home before they unpack, sellers preparing their property for handover, landlords readying a rental for new tenants, and tenants moving into a property they want to feel genuinely their own. The cleaning scope is the same regardless of which side of the move you're on — the result is what matters.

Pricing is room-based, calculated across all spaces in your property — bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, living areas, laundry, and more — and confirmed in full before booking. This is a one-off service. Recurring booking options and frequency discounts do not apply. Your card is held the day before the clean and charged only once the job is complete to your standard.
