Another fantastic clean from Calibre cleaning (again I'm late to posting). Baaska provided a brilliant end of lease clean back in October - she was patient and efficient. I cannot recommend them enough!

We urgently needed someone to assist with additional cleaning for a bond clean. The team were great with communication & attended promptly & did a great job! Will definitely be using them again!

Extremely Disappointing and Unprofessional Experience I strongly recommend avoiding this company. I engaged Calibre Cleaning with clear expectations and a simple, reasonable list of tasks to be completed within a two-hour clean. The cleaner agreed that the list was realistic, yet the standard delivered was never thorough. The issues started… Read more

immediately. The first scheduled clean had to be rescheduled because the cleaner failed to arrive at the prearranged time, despite my having planned my day around it. When the cleaning finally occurred, the work was acceptable at best, but consistently missed important details.

The most serious problem was discovering that furniture had been moved and property damaged while the cleaner was in my home and I was not present. Calibre deny responsibility for this, even though the damage occurred during their visit.

The cleaner then called in sick for an entire month, despite evidently knowing they had no intention of returning. Shortly afterwards, management informed me they would not continue providing the service, claiming that I had made their staff uncomfortable. I dispute this entirely. I requested any emails or text messages supporting their allegation, and none have been provided because none exist.

The damage to my property remains unresolved, and Calibre have now stopped responding to my attempts to follow up.

Avoid this business at all costs. This has been one of the most unprofessional service experiences I have ever encountered.

Calibre Cleaning Service has been prompt and professional, ensuring that they arrived on time and were detailed in their service and have monitored their performance. I am delighted to recommend Calibre and will certainly use their services in the future.

Grossly failed to live up to their own standards despite $667 premium service for a 1 bedroom appartment I hired Calibre Cleaning for their end-of-lease service, paying $667 total including an extra $155 specifically for balcony and window cleaning. What's particularly disappointing is that they failed to meet their own published checklist… Read more

standards.

Items from THEIR checklist that were missed: - "Dust and remove cobwebs" (listed for every room) - ceiling cobwebs completely untouched despite me specifically mentioning balcony cobwebs when paying the extra $155. Heating vent grille also not dusted - "Clean light switches/power points" (every room) - not cleaned - "Vacuum & Mop Floors" (every room) - floors neither vacuumed nor mopped throughout - Bathroom tiles still had dust and dried soap despite "Scrub & Clean showers, wall tiles" - Shower glass had soap scum remaining - Balcony railings completely untouched despite paying an extra $155 for balcony cleaning

I wasn't present during the cleaning and only discovered these issues by chance when in the area for work. With my tenancy ending that day, I had to rush to buy cleaning supplies and complete the work myself to secure my bond return.

The real frustration: I specifically paid extra for balcony cleaning and chose their premium service for a stress-free move, but instead spent hours on moving day doing work I'd already paid for. I had to improvise tools to reach the cobwebs I'd specifically mentioned when agreeing to pay extra.

Customer service: After providing detailed feedback with photos, they offered a $100 partial refund - barely 15% of what I paid. Since I inspected the property the day the lease ended a reclean was not possible without delaying my bond return and causing friction with the property provider.

Bottom line: When a company can't meet their own published standards and ignores specific paid add-ons while unsupervised, it raises serious concerns about their service quality.

Would not recommend.

Stay away!! Tenant paid to have the property cleaned "with a bond guarantee clean" we have been trying to get someone back out but no luck, We keep getting emails saying it was not part of the vacate clean. Dusty blinds, stains on walls not cleaned just to mention a few issues. Poor tenant looks like she will neeed to pay another cleaner.

Great service – One of the best cleaning services I have ever received. The gentleman did no rush anything and was completely thorough.

Terrible clean and terrible experience – I will never use this service again. Did a terrible job, they didn’t do half of the clean including the toilet, showers, skirting boards as well as we paid extra for carpet steam cleaning, the verandah, and oven clean, the carpets were terribly done with marks still over them, the verandah did not get touched, and the oven was still dirty. They… Read more

only offered me a refund if $250 which didn’t even cover the extras we paid, let alone the areas for the initial clean that were not done. And then there customer service on top of that has been terrible regarding the customer support manager who has been no help.

Always on time, reliable and thorough. They listen and adapt to feedback. Also, our cleaner is as quiet as a mouse, except when vacuuming, so you can work from home easily. We have a clean done every fortnight and it keeps me sane and saves me precious time. Contact calibre to get them to quote your home. You won’t regret it. Show details

 Follow-up  · I absolutely recommend this cleaning service. Like every home service, they need clear and up-to-date instructions for them to perform at their high level and to meet your standards. I have always found them to be great at communicating with their clients.

Yesterday I had a fantastic cleaner come in and thoroughly clean the mold from my bathroom roof and walls, he did such a great job then proceeded to do the best clean of the bathroom and kitchen that I have had from any cleaner. I am very happy with this service, I highly recommend Calibre Cleaning and will be using them again myself.

In the world of the gig economy, there’s often little accountability or consistency between workers and companies, so it’s hard to know what kind of service you’ll get. My initial experience with Calibre Cleaning wasn’t great — my first cleaner arrived late, left early, took multiple breaks during a short clean, and unfortunately smelled strongly… Read more

of cigarette smoke.

However, Calibre Cleaning’s response to my feedback was immediate, professional, and genuinely helpful. They apologised straight away, didn’t charge me for the incomplete clean, waived the late cancellation fee, and promptly rebooked me with a new cleaner who did an excellent job.

No company is perfect, especially in a gig-based model, but how a business responds when things go wrong says a lot. In this case, Calibre Cleaning handled it quickly and respectfully, which restored my confidence in their service.

I'd honestly give them 4/5 stars, but they offered my $25 off my next clean for a 5/5 star review, so what was I supposed to do?!

I would recommend them, but keep in mind the cleaners are not the company.

Avoid Working with This Company Unfortunately, I need to leave a negative review to warn others. I was hired through Calibre Cleaning’s marketing representatives (Joshua Isola & Adamska Bugden) to complete SEO work, which I delivered on 18th July 2025. Despite fulfilling the work as agreed, I have not been paid. My invoice is now more than two… Read more

months overdue, and since chasing payment, I have received no replies at all. This experience shows a lack of professionalism, communication, and integrity.

Freelancers and agencies should be extremely cautious about taking on work with this company. If you’re a customer considering their cleaning services, I would think twice.

I recently had the misfortune of hiring Calibre Cleaning, and if I could give zero stars, I would. Their service was nothing short of appalling. We agreed on a specific date and time for the cleaning job, but the cleaners arrived over three hours late without any meaningful communication or explanation. This delay caused significant stress and… Read more

financial loss. When they finally showed up, the cleaning was subpar and did not meet the agreed-upon standards. They had to return to complete the job, which was an inconvenience and further disrupted our schedule.

The customer service was equally disappointing. Despite multiple attempts to seek a resolution, I am still waiting for a satisfactory response. They offered a mere $50 discount on a botched job that cost me well over $1,000. This token gesture does not compensate for the poor service and the stress caused.

Looking at other reviews, it seems my experience is not unique.

Calibre Cleaning's lack of professionalism, poor communication, and inadequate service are unacceptable. I strongly advise others to avoid this company and seek out more reliable and customer-focused cleaning services.

DO NOT use this company for cleaning. They cancelled my cleaning 3 times - and gave lies as to why they didn't show up. Then when they finally decided to show up the job was no where near the "100% end of lease guarantee" as my real estate agent had to call their own cleaning company to come and clean the entire house again. Further to this -… Read more

their team also caused $1200 in damages to a marble bench top, which they refuse to refund me for as they don't believe it was caused by their company.

We have just started using Calibre cleaning and we are off to a great start. The communication with Calibre has been easier. Our house looked immaculate after the clean. We are booked in for a weekly service.

After trying another company, a friend recommended Calibre and we have not been disappointed. The communication has been great with the admin team and our cleaner, Baaska, and Baaska goes above and beyond to provide a great clean. We are very impressed.

The clean is good. Dusting could improve and don’t move things back to where they belong. Overall l am happy with the job done and would recommend them. They do listen and deal with your issues when you do have any. Javiera is fantastic.

Disgusting lack of customer resolution. Many other staff members were very professional but not the cleaners nor Jane from customer service. Cleaner was one and a half hours late with no communication and job was incomplete and unsatisfactory. Was offered $50 off a new service. Like I'd have them back. Just pay a decent cleaner to do the job… Read more

properly and you wont need 20 emails and 3 phone calls over 3 months just to be offered a discount voucher. Clean up your act! I DO NOT RECOMMEND CALIBRE.

SCAM SCAM SCAM!!! – SCAM SCAM SCAM ALERT THEY DO NOT CLEAN ANYTHING, JUST TAKE YOUR MONEY WITHOUT AUTHORISATION. I think all the 5 star reviews are fake. They were 3 hrs late and did not even have a steam cleaner with them! I have been completely ripped off here.

Horrible experience-do not recommend – The service I received was appalling. My apartment was in worse shape than when I left. It was covered in footprints, everything out was of place, surfaces were not cleaned off etc. I complained and tried to get a reclean or a refund. They said they would either clean my floors or give me a partial refund. I opted for the partial refund.

Poor management – This company take your booking but cancel at the last minute when they can’t find a cleaner. They should be upfront about availability so you can source somebody else if needed.

The end result was a mostly good experience with very satisfactory results – Although they were quite late, compared to the advised time, once Monica advised me of that, she gave me some options which we were able to work through and get the work done in the time required.
