Start from the top down

Always work ceilings → walls → skirtings → floors. This stops falling dust from re-dirtying a room you’ve already finished.

Kitchen essentials
The oven and rangehood are the #1 reason bonds get docked. Degrease glass, trays, racks and the extractor filter.
Bathrooms & laundry
Descale showers, sanitise grout, polish mirrors streak-free and clear every drain trap. A single hair clump can trigger a re-inspection fee.
The finishing touch
Book a professional carpet steam clean and keep the receipt — most NZ tenancy agreements now require documented proof.
