What's included in every common area clean
This is the standard scope for a residential or mixed-use building's shared areas — the parts of the property every resident uses, but no single owner is responsible for. It's a starting point, not a fixed list: the committee or managing agent can adjust it at any time.
Lobbies & entries
Floors mopped, mats reset, mailboxes and directories dusted — the first impression every resident and visitor sees.
Stairwells & lifts
Steps swept and mopped, handrails wiped, lift floors and panels cleaned — with wet-floor signage used while we work.
Bin & waste areas
Bin rooms hosed and tidied, bins pulled to the collection point and returned — the job most residents notice fastest when it's missed.
Car parks & driveways
Swept of leaves and debris, oil stains spot-treated, visitor bays and line-marking kept visible and safe.
Common-area glass
Entry doors and internal glass partitions spot-cleaned every visit, so fingerprints and salt film never sit there for weeks.
Reporting to the committee
A short written note after every visit — what was done, and anything that needs the committee's attention before it becomes a bigger job.
Add exactly what the building needs
Set once on the contract and we run it every visit, or request it as a one-off for the committee to approve. Prices are indicative and confirmed on your quote.
From enquiry to your first clean
Walk-through with the committee or agent
We visit the building, walk every common area, and build a written scope from what we actually see — not a generic template.
A fixed quote for the committee to approve
One number per visit, ready to table at a strata meeting — with add-ons itemised separately so the committee can approve exactly what it wants.
Regular visits, safely done
The same small team, wet-floor signage used on stairs and lobbies, and work scheduled to avoid peak resident foot traffic where possible.
Reported to the committee
A written report after every visit, and one monthly invoice — easy to table, easy to reconcile against the building's budget.
Why local committees and agents choose us
A lot of the buildings we clean are older, close to the town centre, with narrower stairwells and finishes that a generic commercial product can damage. We adjust what we use building by building rather than running one product across every job.
Coastal salt air ages common-area glass, metal handrails and entry hardware faster than the same fittings inland — left unchecked it dulls glass and starts corrosion on rails and door furniture within a season or two. A fortnightly wipe as part of the standard visit heads that off before the committee has to budget for a bigger fix.
Managing agents looking after several schemes across the South Coast deal with enough separate contractors already. Being one local company across multiple buildings — one contact, one invoice, one set of reports — is usually the actual reason a committee switches to us, not just the price.
Strata cleaning prices in Kiama
Strata cleaning starts from $180 per visit for a small block. It's one fixed rate per visit rather than an hourly charge, so it's easy to table at a committee meeting and simple to reconcile against the building's budget.
What changes the price:
- Number of levels, whether there's a lift, and how many units share the common areas
- How often we visit — weekly is standard, busier buildings often move to twice weekly
- Add-ons approved by the committee, like pressure washing or graffiti removal
- Whether the scheme is one building or a portfolio of several
Strata cleaning across Kiama & the South Coast
We're based in Kiama and on the road to these suburbs every day, which is what makes a fixed weekly schedule reliable rather than a hope for a building that can't afford to be forgotten.

Strata cleaning questions, answered

A small block with one stairwell and lobby, cleaned weekly, starts from $180 per visit. A larger building with a lift, multiple levels or a shared car park starts from $320 per visit. Bigger schemes, multiple buildings under one owners corporation, or daily servicing are quoted after a walk-through with the strata manager or committee.
Lobbies and entries, stairwells and lifts, bin and waste areas, car parks and driveways swept, common-area glass, and a written report to the committee are all standard. Pressure washing, high-level cobweb and light-fitting cleaning, graffiti removal, garden and common-area tidy-ups, and carpet steam cleaning for lobby carpet are priced as add-ons.
Yes, every visit. A short written report goes to whoever manages the scheme — a self-managed committee or an external strata manager — noting what was done and flagging anything that needs attention, like a burnt-out light or a trip hazard, before it becomes a bigger job.
Yes. We carry public liability insurance and every cleaner is police-checked and trained in the basic safety practices common areas need — wet floor signage on stairs, safe use of equipment in shared spaces, and reporting hazards rather than just working around them. Certificates of currency are available for the owners corporation's records.
Yes. Strata managers looking after several schemes across Kiama and the South Coast move to a single monthly invoice covering every building, with one point of contact instead of a separate arrangement and report per site.
Most residential schemes do well on a weekly visit; buildings with heavier foot traffic, a lift, or a bin room used by a lot of units often move to twice weekly. We'll recommend a frequency based on what we see on the walk-through rather than a one-size-fits-all default.
A common-area key, a fob or access code, or arrangements through the building manager or a resident on-site — whatever the scheme already uses. Access details are recorded on the property file and only shared with the cleaners assigned to your building.
Call us directly rather than waiting for the next scheduled visit. Graffiti removal, a spill, or a mess after a move-in or move-out is quoted and handled as a standalone job, separate from the regular contract.
No lock-in contract. Frequency and scope can be adjusted at any committee meeting or on request — we'll requote rather than lock a building into a scope that stops making sense as it changes.
Commercial and office cleaning is inside a single tenancy for one business. Strata cleaning covers the shared areas of a residential or mixed-use building on behalf of the owners corporation — lobbies, stairwells, car parks and bin rooms that every resident uses, reported back to the committee rather than a single tenant.
Tell us about the building. We'll come back within one business day.
No obligation, and happy to send a written quote the committee can table at a meeting.
