Bathrooms and laundry
- Shower screen, tiles and grout
- Toilet, vanity, mirrors and exhaust fan
- Laundry tub and behind the machine
Every room
- Skirting boards, light switches, door handles
- Windows, tracks and sills
- Marks on walls (check what's allowed first)
- Floors vacuumed and mopped, carpets cleaned if your lease says so
Outside
- Rubbish removed, lawns and gardens tidy if they're your responsibility
