A deep clean is the reset a regular clean never gets to: behind the furniture, the grout, the vents and the window tracks, with the inside of the oven and fridge as extras you can add. If you are weighing one up, the first question is usually the cost. This guide gives you the starting prices for deep cleaning in Toronto, what the price includes, which extras change it and how to book. Every number comes from the live booking form.

As a starting point: a deep clean of a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom condo starts at $259 before 13% HST, which is the regular visit (from $194) plus the deep-cleaning add-on (from $65).

Deep cleaning prices in Toronto

Deep cleaning is priced by home size, condition and how long it has been since the last thorough clean. The table shows the starting point for each home size, before 13% HST.

Home size Starting price
1 bed / 1 bath condo from $259

What a deep clean includes

A deep clean covers everything a regular clean does, plus the build-up a regular clean is not designed to remove:

  • Kitchen: oven exterior and door glass, stovetop degreased, range hood and filters, fridge exterior and top, cabinet fronts and hardware, backsplash scrubbed, counters, sink and faucet descaled, and garbage and recycling taken out; add the inside of the oven and fridge when you book.
  • Bathrooms: tubs, showers and glass doors de-soaped, toilets cleaned inside and out, sinks and faucets descaled, mirrors streak-free, tiles and grout lines scrubbed, exhaust fans and light fixtures wiped down.
  • Living spaces and bedrooms: all surfaces dusted, including shelves, window sills, baseboards, door frames and switch plates; vents and register covers wiped; under furniture vacuumed and mopped where accessible; closets wiped down inside.
  • Floors: vacuumed throughout, edges and corners included, and mopped everywhere it is safe to mop.

Add-ons that change the price

The details that separate a deep clean from a standard visit are part of the service, not an upsell: interior window tracks and sills, inside closet shelves, the areas behind large appliances where accessible, and a final pass on the spots people notice first, such as the inside of the microwave and the oven door glass.

Larger extras are itemized on your booking before the visit. The deep-cleaning add-on starts at $65 and is added to your regular clean price; the booking form shows the exact amount for your home before you book. Interior windows, laundry, blinds and interior walls are added the same way, and nothing is added without your approval.

Deep clean vs regular clean: what the extra buys

A regular visit maintains a home: surfaces dusted, floors vacuumed, kitchens and bathrooms wiped down. A deep clean restores it. That is why the two are priced differently. A regular visit to a 1-bedroom condo starts at $194, and a recurring plan saves up to 15%. A deep clean starts at $259, and the visit runs longer; the booking form shows the estimated time for your home before you book.

Most clients book a deep clean first to reset the home, then keep it that way on a regular cleaning plan, because a home on a schedule never falls far behind, and a recurring plan saves up to 15%.

When a deep clean is worth booking

The pattern most Toronto households follow is simple: reset once, then maintain.

  • It is your first professional clean, or the home has not had one in months.
  • You are moving in or out and want a detail clean of the empty home.
  • It is a seasonal reset, spring or fall, when windows stay closed and dust builds fastest.
  • Someone in the home has allergies or asthma, and dust, dander and pollen collect in the places a deep clean reaches: vents, upholstery and under beds. The EPA’s indoor air quality guidance covers why regular removal of that build-up matters, and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences lists dust mites and pet dander among the most common household allergens.
  • You are listing or photographing the home and want it show-ready.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a deep clean cost in Toronto? A deep clean starts at $259 for a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom condo, before 13% HST. For a larger home it is your regular clean price, from $257 for a 2-bedroom unit or $428 for a 4-bedroom house, plus the deep-cleaning add-on, from $65. Your exact price depends on your home’s size and condition and the clean you choose, and it appears on the booking form before you book. No hidden fees: nothing is added without your approval.

What is the difference between a deep clean and a regular clean? A regular clean maintains the surfaces you use every day: kitchens, bathrooms, floors and dusting. A deep clean adds the areas regular visits skip: baseboards, vents, window tracks, grout, and behind and under furniture, and you can add the inside of the oven and fridge when you book. Most clients book one deep clean, then keep it fresh with weekly or bi-weekly visits.

How long does a deep clean take? It depends on your home’s size and condition. The booking form shows the estimated time for your home before you book, and for longer jobs, about 4 to 5 hours or more, a second cleaner joins so the work finishes sooner.

Are there extra charges for add-ons? Only for the ones you choose. Extras are itemized on your booking before the visit: the deep-cleaning add-on starts at $65, and larger extras such as interior windows, laundry, blinds and interior walls are added the same way. Nothing is added without your approval.

Do you bring supplies? Yes. Degreasers, descalers, microfiber cloths and a vacuum come with every visit. If you buy your own products, the EPA’s Safer Choice program labels options that meet its safer-chemistry standard.
