The clean that closes the door properly
Most Burlington moves end the same way: the truck is loaded, everyone’s tired, and someone still has to deal with the state of the empty place. That last job is ours. We arrive after the furniture is gone and hand back a home nobody can raise an eyebrow at, landlord, buyer or property manager.
- Pantry shelves and built-in shelving wiped out: empty homes hide crumbs everywhere
- Baseboards, door frames and door tops washed with the rooms clear
- Closets and built-ins done shelf by shelf
- Scuffs where the sofa sat, dust where the bed stood
- Fixtures, vents, switch plates and door hardware
- Window tracks dug out and sills wiped; the glass itself is per window, from +$5
- Bathrooms taken back to bare where you add them: scale off the taps, grout scrubbed
- Inside the oven (from +$19), fridge (from +$19) and cabinets (+$29) added only if your hand-over needs them
End of lease in Burlington
Leaving an apartment on Plains Road, a basement suite in Aldershot or a condo near the GO station? Hand back a unit there’s nothing to say about. It’s calmer than arguing about cleaning costs after the fact, and your reference stays warm for the next landlord.
Downsizing after decades
Plenty of Burlington moves aren’t rentals at all, they’re family homes in Roseland or Shoreacres being sold after thirty years. A kitchen that has cooked that many Christmases needs more than a wipe before the photos and the possession date. We do these cleans thoroughly and gently, and we don’t rush the people in the middle of them.
Coming the other way?
Book a move-in clean for the day before the truck arrives. An empty house is the only house you’ll ever see the inside of every cupboard without moving a thing, and once you’re settled, house cleaning in Burlington keeps it that way. We do the same empty-home clean in Oakville and Milton.

What “empty-home standard” means
A Basic clean serves the home you live in: dusting, vacuuming and mopping, with the bathrooms and kitchen you add, working around your things. A move-out clean serves the home you're handing back: everything is reachable, everything is visible, and an inspection will look where things were hiding.
It’s the difference between a home that looks clean and one that passes a walkthrough conducted by somebody motivated to find fault.
Move-out cleaning questions
Will the agreed cleaning price increase on arrival?
Choose your rooms and tasks at published prices. We confirm the details and availability by phone. We do not increase the agreed cleaning price on arrival. Extra rooms or tasks are added only if you choose them and agree the price before the work starts.
Do landlords in Ontario hold cleaning deposits?
No. Ontario doesn’t allow damage or cleaning deposits, so there’s no cheque to win back. What a landlord can do is pursue cleaning costs after you leave, or write the kind of reference that makes the next rental harder. An empty-home clean at a fixed price closes both doors.
What does move-out cleaning cost in Burlington?
Build it like any other clean: the Basic clean for your home, plus the Move-in / move-out upgrade priced by size (+$79 under 1,000 sq ft, +$119 for 1,500–1,999 sq ft, up to +$279 for 3,500–3,999 sq ft), then the rooms and jobs you want. A one-bedroom condo starts at $168. A typical 3-bedroom Burlington home with two bathrooms and the kitchen is $348; inside the oven (from +$19), inside the fridge (from +$19), inside the cabinets (+$29) and interior windows (from +$5 each) are added only if you want them. All before HST.
How much notice do you need?
Two weeks is comfortable, especially April through August when Halton closings stack up. Thursdays and Fridays go first because that’s when possession dates land. If your dates just moved, call anyway, schedules shift and cancellations happen.
Can you clean while the movers are still working?
We’d rather come the day after the truck leaves. Cleaning around movers means re-doing floors and losing track of what’s finished. A clear, empty home gets a better result in less time, which is what you’re paying for.
Do you do move-in cleans on possession day?
If the home is empty and we have the slot, yes, though many Burlington closings only hand keys over mid-afternoon. Booking the following morning is safer, and it still beats unpacking into someone else’s kitchen.
What if the landlord or buyer flags something?
Send us what they flagged within 24 hours and we come back free. No debate, no second invoice. The same guarantee we put on every clean.
