House Cleaning in Chinatown

Hard-working kitchens and walk-up stairs, reset.

A kitchen that cooks every day can get a proper degrease, and a walk-up flat a thorough reset. Your cleaner brings everything, and there’s no upfront payment.

Local notes

Above the storefronts and down the side streets

Toronto’s Chinatown centres on Spadina Avenue and Dundas Street West, a busy stretch of produce stands, bakeries and restaurants between Kensington Market and the Art Gallery of Ontario.

Homes in Chinatown

Housing is a mix of walk-up apartments over storefronts, Victorian and Edwardian row houses on side streets such as Huron Street, and mid-size rental buildings.

  1. Walk-ups often have narrow stairs and a shared street door; give your unit number and entry instructions when you book.

  2. Kitchens that cook daily build up grease on the stovetop, range hood and backsplash; a deep clean degreases them, and oven or fridge interiors can be added.

  3. The 510 Spadina and 505 Dundas streetcars stop at the corner; if there’s a laneway spot or visitor stall your cleaner can use, add it to your booking notes.

  4. Grange Park and the AGO sit just east of Spadina and are handy landmarks if your building is on a quieter side street.

Local FAQ

Questions about house cleaning in Chinatown

Common questions from households in Chinatown. More answers in our FAQ.

Do you clean walk-up apartments above the shops in Chinatown?

Yes. Apartments are booked by bedrooms and bathrooms like any home. Tell us which street door to use and whether you’ll be home or leave a key in a lockbox.

Can you handle a greasy kitchen?

Yes. Book a deep clean for built-up grease: it covers a degreased stovetop, the range hood and filters, cabinet fronts and the backsplash. Inside the oven and fridge are add-ons you can select when you book.
