Absolute scamsters! I'm actually livid at how terrible this company is. Quoted me multiple rates on the phone for a super basic couch clean. Started at $50 a seat and then was reduced to $30 a seat x 6 seats. Then a different rate of $220 when they got to the house. This was agreed on due to a little extra work. However I left, and he charged my… Read more

wife an extra $55 without mentioning it to anyone.

Now refusing to refund the fraudulent difference and the house is covered in water.

When I called head office they gave me some garbage generalsolutions.au@gmail.com email to write to. Dodgy Indian scamsters! Avoid like the plague!

WORST company I have dealt with. Turned up in an old car with no branding or professionalism. Used a small cleaner machine which was filled with water and no chemicals. Lounge was not cleaned, it was only wet. A terrible stain has been left on one of the cushions and they are not responding to my complaints at all. I would never recommend these… Read more

people at all. They are disgraceful. They tried to get more money out of me when they arrived, they didn’t move the back cushions while cleaning the seats ( I had to ask them to do that) and they tried to say the ottoman was not included in the price. I showed them photos of what I got a quote for, so they agreed to clean it. I spoke with several people during the clean as I was not happy and my calls were constantly moved around to different people and “head office”. Totally unprofessional. My guess is they charge whatever they can get out of you and all you get is water put on your lounge. I would NEVER NEVER RECOMMEND OR USE THEM AGAIN. DO NOT GO NEAR THIS BUSINESS IF YOU WANT REAL SERVICE.

This company goes by other names, and based on the other reviews, I can see why. I booked an end-of-lease carpet clean through their website. I was quoted $150 over the phone for a small ground-level 1-bedroom then they charged me $200, knowing I needed it done that day. The cleaner rushed around with the machine (10mins) and when I complained… Read more

saying that the carpets were not clean, he packed up and left. The property inspection was conducted the following week, and the landlord refused my bond due to the carpets not being cleaned properly. When contacting the company to re-clean they refused saying their complaints policy was 48hrs. My advise do you research, ensure that the company has their ABN listed on their website and that their trading name matches their business registration. This will help link real time reviews to their work.

Definitely do not use. Price quoted doubled on arrival and stains still present. Was told by the technician there was a 1 year warranty. When I contacted them to tell them there were still visible stains I was advised I should have advised them within 24-48 hours and no such warranty exists therefore case closed. Seems they are benefitting from using a company name similar to a reputable company. Total job cost over $700!

Never ever use this company. They are very un profressional and unethical. They gave a quote and when their technician arrived, he tried to increase the amount. He spent less than one and a half hour in cleaning 3 rugs, 3 couches and 4 chairs. He was rude and did a terrible job, absolutely no difference after cleaning. When I tried to reach out… Read more

to their complaint section, they were not listening to at all, were just wasting time by asking for the before and aftet images and going to and fro. No concrete result and finally they said you sre not a genuine cudtomer and we are not listening to you. I am taking them to fair trade if someone else would like to join.

DO NOT TRUST THEM! Horrific experience, taking them to VCAT. I engaged this ‘cleaning service’ to clean a small mark on my brand new velvet ottoman and they have completely destroyed it. After much battling on my part they agreed to return and clean it again, but still left it damaged beyond repair. Incredibly dodgy company with fake Google… Read more

reviews on their website, a ‘resolution team’ only available by email (clearly not even based in Australia) and hostile, aggressive phone operators. Invoice came under a completely different company name to their website. Have had to lodge a VCAT case to try and claim back the damages. Wish I had seen the reviews before having the ill fortune to stumble upon these absolute scammers. They should be shut down.

Outstanding Carpet Cleaning Service! – I recently used Master Cleaners for a deep carpet cleaning, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, their team was professional, punctual, and highly knowledgeable. They took the time to assess my carpets, explained the cleaning process, and ensured that every stain and spot was treated with care. The results were… Read more

amazing—my carpets look brand new, smell fresh, and feel incredibly soft. They used high-quality, eco-friendly products, which is a huge plus for my family and pets. The team was also very friendly and went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied with their service.

Reliable and Effective Pest Control Service – I recently hired Master Cleaners for a pest control issue, and they exceeded my expectations! From the initial consultation to the completion of the service, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and highly efficient. The technician arrived on time and thoroughly assessed the situation, explaining the treatment plan in a way I could easily… Read more

understand. They used safe and effective products, ensuring minimal disruption to my daily routine. Within days, I noticed a significant improvement, and the pests were completely gone soon after.

What impressed me most was their attention to detail and follow-up care. They provided helpful tips to prevent future infestations and were happy to answer all my questions.

If you're dealing with a pest problem, I highly recommend Master Cleaners for their exceptional service and results. They turned a stressful situation into a seamless and reassuring experience.

If there was a ZERO rating, I would give them less than zero. They overcharged us several hundred dollars - their pricing was very vague and suspect, their communication was terrible, totally not transparent in their dealings. And when we questioned the fact that we were overcharged, they did everything possible to avoid communicating with us.… Read more

We had to call and email many many times to get an answer. They did not even give us an invoice without us chasing them. They pushed us and diverted us to other parts of their company to avoid dealing with us. They then dug in and basically said, our costs are our costs - even through they charged us an extra few hundred dollars just to clean 2 tiny, minor stains which took them about 2 minutes in total. The job itself was average, but acceptable - and the cleaner himself was a decent enough guy. But the aftercare service and customer service was terrible and it was obvious they were avoiding the real issues. If I had more time and energy, I would report them to Consumer Affairs. PLEASE BE AWARE that this very unsatisfactory company is called MASTER CLEANERS although they trade under so many different (generic) names it is almost impossible to know which company they are. NOTE: They are totally distinct to another reputable company called "MASTER CLEANERS AUSTRALIA", who seem to be a trustworthy, reputable company with good communication and good customer service. I actually thought that was the company I had hired but it appears this very ordinary company are benefiting from having the same name to one of their competent competitors. Make sure you do not get them confused like I did. If you read the litany of one star reviews they have here, I think you will have your answer. But importantly, I would avoid this Master Cleaners outfit at all costs. You would be better just having dirty carpet than getting involved with this crew.

I believe this joker does not have insurance as this is not a genuine business. Scammers at their very best. I have spent the afternoon cleaning it myself and $200 down after being robbed in broad daylight. Shame on him and hope karma does her best....

Terrible experience with this company. Got a quote to get two bedrooms carpet steam cleaned for $140. Our carpets were lightly soiled. When technician arrived was advised to have a Deep Clean which is dearer but more likely to get a better clean for the couple of light stains. Quote changed to $260 which I was happy to pay but unfortunately… Read more

the clean was not what I was hoping for …… I should just have stayed with the original quote of $140 as carpets still had stains and the extra price was not worth it. Don’t them as they don’t deliver what they promise.

The lady on the phone was extremely… Read more

argumentative and rude, refusing to cancel my appointment - telling me they could come in the next hour. I said I didn't want that. She then proceeded to tell me I needed to pay a $120 cancellation fee!!!!! I was transferred to the accounts department and I told them I refused to pay based on the fact I was never told there was a cancellation fee let alone more than 48 hours before the call out - not even a clean!! just a call out for a quote!!! I was put on hold for a few minutes, then I was told that I didn't have to pay the cancellation fee and that my appointment was cancelled.... I'm glad I went with my gut and decided to cancel.

Wish I read the reviews. This company not only are unprofessional - arrived in a private vehicle, no uniform or identification of any sorts. I had to ask who he was. Immediately I was told it would cost an additional $25 on top of an actual Quote for a tiny bedroom. WOULD NOT PRODUCE INVOICE OR RECEIPT. Had me pay a bank account that was just under his name - no trace of business name. Absolute scam. Show details

If I could give this company a negative rating, I absolutely would. The entire experience was unprofessional, misleading, and is a scam. I hired them to clean a small patch of vomit from our cream-colored wool carpet. The technician who arrived spoke limited English, increased the price from the original quote, and used a faulty machine that… Read more

looked like it had been rented from Bunnings. During the job, he noticed the machine leaking and asked me for a towel. I saw liquid leaking from two separate spots and watched him place the towel underneath—clearly trying to contain the leak. That liquid turned out to be waste water from the machine’s tank, and it left permanent stains on the carpet.

I raised the issue immediately while the technician was still onsite. He called his company, and I spoke with them directly to explain what had happened. They asked to speak with him, and he then attempted to clean the stain. It didn't look like it had come out but he said to wait until it dries. Once the carpet dried and the damage was fully visible, I lodged a formal complaint. Both the area we asked him to treat and the area where the machine was leaking was left with a strange red tinge. But the worst was the area where the machine was leaking waste. That’s when the company began giving me the runaround.

First, they claimed their machines are inspected before and after every job and refused to offer compensation. Then they said the technician had asked for a towel to wipe vomit off the wheel—and that this somehow caused the stain. I shared a video showing the layout of the room, clearly proving that explanation was impossible based on the location of the vomit, the bedroom entrance, and where the machine was positioned. In reality, the vomit had already been treated before the technician arrived. We had removed what we could, blotted the area with water, and covered it with bicarb soda. It was dry by the time he got there, and there was no reason for the machine to be wheeled over that area—it was at the opposite end of the bedroom suite from the entrance. Their claim simply doesn’t hold up under scrutiny.

Next, they changed their story again, saying the stain came from something in our home that the machine rolled over. When I pointed out that even if that were true, their technician and equipment were still responsible, they shifted the story a third time—claiming the vomit was in two separate locations. Apparently, vomit now has wings and can fly two metres from a small patch outside the bathroom to land in two perfectly round, saturated spots. Who would’ve thought!

We ended up hiring a certified wool carpet cleaner to try and repair the damage. Wool requires very specific care—pH-balanced products, thorough rinsing, and an acid spray to restore its natural state. The original technician clearly had no understanding of this. While the expert cleaner was able to reduce some of the damage caused by the cleaning products, the stain from the leaking machine remains visible.

To make matters worse, the company operates under multiple names, Master Cleaner, Target Cleaners, and Top Cleaning Master, all using identical websites with different branding. It’s misleading and designed to appear like separate businesses.

Throughout the complaint process, I dealt with someone named Jason, who told me, “We don’t believe customers, we don’t believe our employees, we only believe the facts given in emails.” That in itself it absurd. I explained that I have shared all the before-and-after photos and videos clearly showing what happened. If the machine wasn’t faulty, why didn’t the technician deny the leak when I called the company during the job? Instead, he tried to clean the stain, which only confirms the issue.

This company was careless, dishonest, and completely unprofessional. I strongly advise others to avoid their services and any affiliated brands. They take no responsibility for their mistakes and show no regard for customer care.

This company damaged my stairs with their equipment and their response was ‘we don’t remember doing it’. Good story, that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen when the tech banged his machine on every stair taking it up. I was also told ‘you should have discussed it with the tech on the day’. Except the tech barely spoke English and couldn’t understand what I was saying

WARNING: Master Cleaner Aggressive, Predatory Behavior. Do Not Use. My wife booked a couch cleaning service through Master Cleaner, then cancelled it more than 24 hours in advance after finding a better price and she has clear cancellation messages to prove it. Despite this, a man from Master Cleaner showed up at our home anyway. My wife was… Read more

home alone with our 6-year-old daughter and 12-year-old son. She explained the cancellation and showed him the message, but he refused to accept it, became forceful and intimidating, and pressured her until she let him inside. She felt unsafe and trapped.

He then increased the price by $50 on the spot.

When I arrived home and calmly confronted him, I informed him his actions were bordering on coercion and intimidation, and that I’d be reporting him to the police. I paid him to de-escalate the situation and told him to leave immediately.

Our security cameras recorded everything, including his face and vehicle. License plate: YNX-27G (NSW) White Toyota Van.

Shortly after, I received three separate phone calls from various supposed “cleaning companies,” all demanding call-out fees for jobs my wife never booked. When I refused, I was insulted and harassed over the phone.

We’ve since found multiple other reviews from women describing similar behavior from this company intimidation, pressure tactics, showing up uninvited, and suspicious follow-up calls.

We’ve filed a report with the police and will be forwarding footage and full documentation to NSW Fair Trading.

To any woman booking a cleaner avoid Master Cleaner at all costs. If you're home alone, do not let them in. This is not just bad business, it’s predatory.

Wish I found this site before booking with this company.

I thought really what could go wrong with carpet cleaning. I informed i wanted steam… Read more

cleaning as i had worried about dust mites in my new home. The next day I was booked in, they arrived to meet my husband at home they told him they thought a dust mites treatment spray was best rather than carpet cleaning and made a point of how they would have to return the next day if they did the carpets. They sprayed the parameters of each room which did absolutely nothing. When I contacted them to ask they come back and do the full job they made out that my husband was the one who asked for a different job, not that their operator had suggested doing this. They made us pay the full quoted price, which with hindsight we shouldn’t have done. We have literally thrown money away. When making a complaint they took their time to reply, much to my surprise given how eager they were that I had several numbers calling on my enquiry day!

I got one bedroom carpet steam cleaned and it cost just over $150. I needed it done urgently and they were the only people that I could get to do it the same day. I helped the man bring his equipment from his car to my apartment and the whole time he kept sighing. I also helped him by filling a bucket of water and he kept sighing during this time… Read more

too. It took him about 10-15 minutes to steam clean the carpet and he left. Again, I helped take his equipment back to his car and again he kept sighing. I don’t know why. He told us it’ll be dry in about 3-4 hours. We checked the room over 24 hours later and the carpet was saturated. Also, it doesn’t seem like it’s any cleaner. Don’t use this company.

Yesterday, I requested for a couch cleaning. The service was scheduled at 12noon, they rang me at 1pm they are late due to punctured tires and mentioned they will be here at 2pm. I rang them at 3:14 and they just arrived at my place. Took them 20 mins including setting up their machines to finish 5 seats. The service provider said it will dry… Read more

after 24hrs.

Initial check, some spots of the couch are not even wet, also they left the floor area and the rug where the couch is sitting soaking wet with their equipment.

Today, the sofa just smelt the same. Nothing different only additional smell from the chem they sprayed.

I am unwell and alone at the house so did not push to let them re-do it again.

I also wish I had read this comments prior to enganging with them. Their website does not allow you to write a feedback or review.

If I could give 0 star I would. I had booked an appointment and then decided to look at the reviews. After seeing how many bad experiences there were I had decided to ultimately cancel the appointment as it was over $200 and could not waste it When on the phone I told him the same thing on much nicer words and was told to “get lost”. The customer service itself was just awful and I can see why no one is suggesting them Thank you
