Find a local Tasker to help you with strata cleaning near you

Most strata cleaning involves basic maintenance of shared areas - both inside and outside your residential building. Regular strata cleaning is required to maintain presentable, safe premises for all tenants, with all costs covered by the owners' corporation. Here’s what you can expect from the most common strata cleaning services:

Building interior

If your strata building has shared internal areas, your strata cleaner will take care of any cleaning and maintenance jobs inside. This includes floor cleaning (vacuuming, mopping, and carpet cleaning), dusting, cleaning wall marks, and even changing lightbulbs. They’ll maintain common areas like lobbies and entryways, as well as shared laundries, bathrooms, and kitchens. Most of the time, your cleaner will use their own equipment, including vacuums and mops. They won’t clean inside individual homes or apartments - just the shared areas.

Lifts & stairs

If your building includes shared lifts and stairs, your strata cleaner will help take care of these. They’ll clean the inside of lifts by vacuuming and dusting, as well as cleaning any mirrored surfaces. They’ll sweep and mop stairways, wipe down handrails, and check that stairwells and fire escapes are clean and free from rubbish.

Building exterior

Strata cleaning tasks include maintaining the outside of any shared buildings. This means cleaning doors and entrances to the building, wall cleaning, roof cleaning, window cleaning, and even air conditioning units. Your cleaner will likely use a pressure cleaner to remove dirt, bugs, and marks from the building. They’ll also take care of any graffiti removal on the building itself. However, if you need high-up areas cleaned beyond the reach of a ladder, you’ll need to hire a specialist pressure cleaner to take care of these.

Grounds maintenance

The area surrounding your building needs maintaining, too. Your strata cleaner will help with car park cleaning, driveway cleaning, sweeping up leaves, and rubbish removal. They’ll check your letterboxes are clean and in good repair, plus dispose of any visible junk mail. Strata maintenance services can sometimes include lawn mowing and hedging, but if not, you may need to hire this service separately.
