Bond Cleaning a Studio Apartment in Perth — Cost and What to Expect

Published May 2025  |  3 min read

Studio apartments are the smallest bond cleaning job in Perth — but the same REIWA standards apply as for a five-bedroom house. Property managers don't lower their expectations because the property is small.

Typical Cost

A professional bond clean for a Perth studio apartment typically costs $200–$300, depending on the condition and whether add-ons like carpet steam cleaning are needed. It's the most affordable bond clean available, and the cost is easily justified by the bond protection it provides.

How Long Does It Take?

A studio apartment in good condition: 2–4 hours for a professional cleaner. A studio in poor condition with buildup in the kitchen and bathroom: up to 5 hours. Solo DIY typically takes 4–8 hours depending on how meticulous you are.

What's Included

The same checklist as any property:

  • Kitchen: oven, cooktop, rangehood, cupboards, sink, benchtops
  • Bathroom: shower screen or bath, toilet, vanity, exhaust fan
  • Living/sleeping area: wardrobe (if present), skirting boards, blinds, window tracks
  • All floors vacuumed and mopped
  • Light fittings and ceiling fan if present

Can I DIY a Studio Bond Clean?

Of all Perth rental properties, a studio is where DIY is most feasible. The footprint is small, there's limited surface area to cover, and it can realistically be cleaned thoroughly in a day. Use our full REIWA checklist and work methodically.

That said, even a studio will cost you money if the oven, shower screen, or rangehood aren't properly cleaned. If you're short on time or not confident in your cleaning standard, a professional clean for $200–$300 is worth it for the guarantee alone.
