Professional Bathroom Cleaning Services

So… How Much Is This Actually Going to Cost Me?

I get this question probably fifteen times a day. And honestly? I used to hate answering it because the truth is frustrating: it depends. But after doing this for years, I can give you real numbers that actually hold up in 2026.

Here’s what we’re seeing right now:

If you’ve got a standard 3-bedroom place in Montreal — say around 1,400 square feet — and you’re looking for someone to come every two weeks to keep things tidy? You’re looking at roughly $130 to $180 per visit. That’s for a solid, thorough cleaning. Not a rushed wipe-down, but actual attention to detail.

Now, if you’re in Laval or Longueuil, you might catch a slight break. We’re talking maybe $120 to $160 for similar service. Why cheaper? Honestly, parking is easier, traffic is less brutal, and our teams can move between clients faster. We pass that saving along.

But here’s where people get confused — and I don’t blame them. They see “$25/hour” on some classified ad and think they’ve found a deal. What they don’t see is that a professional cleaner covering a 3-bedroom properly in 2026 needs 3 to 4 hours minimum. Do the math. That “cheap” rate often ends up costing the same (or more) when you realize they’re rushing through rooms or calling it done after two hours.

The real budget killers? These catch people off guard:

• First-time deep cleans: If we haven’t touched your place in months, that “maintenance” rate doesn’t apply. We’re talking $250 to $400 for the initial reset. After that, maintenance is cheaper.
• Move-out situations: Landlords in Montreal have gotten picky. We charge $300 to $550 because we’re guaranteeing your deposit back. That means inside the fridge, inside the oven, baseboards — the works.
• Eco-products: About 15% more expensive, yeah. But here’s the thing — my clients with kids or asthma? They don’t even question it. The air quality difference is real.

Okay, But How Long Will You Actually Be in My House?

I love this question because it shows someone’s been burned before. Maybe they hired a service that promised “2 hours max” and left half the job undone.

Real talk on timing:

For that same 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom setup we mentioned? If we’re coming every two weeks and the place is reasonably maintained? 2.5 to 4 hours with one or two maids. That’s dusting all surfaces, bathrooms sanitized, kitchen cleaned, floors mopped, beds made if you want. The whole routine.

But — and this is important — if you haven’t had professionals in for 3+ months? All bets are off. I’ve walked into homes where the bathroom grout has turned black, where the kitchen cabinets are sticky with cooking residue from six months of neglect. Those jobs take 6 to 10 hours, sometimes split across two days. I had a client in Longueuil last month who thought she was getting a “standard clean.” We ended up sending three people for a full day. She was embarrassed; I told her not to be. Life happens.

The stuff that adds time nobody thinks about:

• Multiple bathrooms: Each extra full bath adds 45 minutes easy
• Pets: I love dogs, I really do. But golden retrievers shed like it’s their job. We need extra vacuum passes and lint-roller work
• High ceilings: Those fancy light fixtures in Plateau apartments? Someone’s got to stand on something to reach them
• Clutter: I’m not your organizer. If I can’t access surfaces, I’m either working around stuff or we’re adding time

Pro tip from someone who’s seen it all: Spend 20 minutes the night before putting away random stuff. Papers, clothes, that pile of Amazon boxes. I can’t tell you how much faster (and cheaper) your cleaning becomes when we can actually reach your countertops.

Who We Actually Help (And Why They Call Us)

I could give you marketing speak about “busy professionals” and “active families,” but let me tell you about real clients:

• Sarah in Rosemont — Works from home, has two kids under 5, and was drowning. She tried doing it all herself for two years. Called Montreal Cleaners crying one Tuesday because she couldn’t see her dining table anymore. We started bi-weekly visits. She told me last month it’s the best money she spends because she can actually play with her kids on weekends instead of catching up on housework.
• Marc and David in the Village — Both lawyers, insane hours, condo downtown. They were fighting about whose turn it was to clean the bathroom. Classic. Monthly deep cleans changed their relationship dynamic. I’m not exaggerating — they actually mentioned us in their wedding speech. (I cried. Ridiculous, but I did.)
• Madame Tremblay in Laval — 78 years old, widow, proud as hell. She doesn’t want her kids thinking she can’t manage. We come weekly, she leaves the house “for errands,” comes back to everything spotless. She pretends to her daughter that she “just tidied up a bit.” We play along. Dignity matters.
• The student house in McGill Ghetto — Five roommates, security deposit on the line, everyone pointing fingers. We did a move-out clean that saved them $2,400 in landlord deductions. Split five ways? $60 each. They should have called us months earlier.
• Real estate agents — I work with four agents regularly in Longueuil and Brossard. They know a professionally cleaned listing sells faster and for more. One told me a $200 cleaning added $8,000 to her client’s sale price. Math checks out.

The Eco Thing — Why I Changed My Mind

I’ll be honest. Five years ago, I thought “green cleaning” was marketing fluff. I used the standard industrial stuff because it worked and it was cheap.

Then two things happened:

First, my head cleaner, Maria, developed chronic respiratory issues. Doctor said it was chemical sensitivity from years of exposure. That shook me.

Second, I cleaned my own mother’s house with our standard products. She called me that night wheezing. She’s got asthma. I knew better and I still didn’t think.

We switched everything. Green Seal certified products. HEPA vacuums that actually trap particles instead of blowing them around. Microfiber systems that clean with less chemical. It cost us more upfront. We raised prices slightly. Not a single client left. In fact, we gained the allergy-sensitive, new-parent, pet-owner crowd who were specifically searching for this.

The air quality difference? You can smell it. Literally. Walk into a home we’ve cleaned with eco products versus standard bleach — it’s the difference between a fresh breeze and a hospital corridor.

What Actually Happens When You Book

I hate when companies make this mysterious. Here’s exactly what booking with us looks like:

1. You call or text. I answer, usually directly because we’re small enough still. You tell me about your place — size, problem areas, pets, kids, that weird stain on the carpet you want to pretend doesn’t exist. I ask questions. Sometimes I suggest a quick video walkthrough if it’s a big job.
2. I give you a real number. Not a range that doubles on arrival. Not “we’ll see when we get there.” An actual quote based on years of doing this.
3. We schedule. I check my team’s routes — we’ve got maids cleaners living in Montreal, Laval, and Longueuil, so I match you with someone nearby. Morning or afternoon, whatever works. You don’t need to be home if you don’t want to be. Many clients give us a door code or hide a key.
4. Day of: They arrive on time (traffic permitting — this is Montreal, after all). They have their own supplies, their own equipment, checklists we’ve refined over years. They clean. If you’re home, great. If not, they lock up, text you photos, and you come home to it done.
5. After: I check in. Did we miss anything? Be honest — I’d rather fix it than lose you. Most people rebook right then. Some go monthly, some bi-weekly. No contracts, no pressure.

The Questions I Get at Least Once a Week

• “Are you actually insured?” Yes. Liability and breakage coverage. Had a cleaner knock over a vase in Westmount once. Replaced it, no drama. Ask this of anyone you hire — if they hesitate, run.
• “What if I’m not happy?” Tell me within 24 hours. We come back and fix it free. Hasn’t happened often, but when it did, I personally went to supervise the redo. Pride thing.
• “Do I need to tip?” Absolutely not expected. Our maids cleaners are employees, not gig workers scraping by. If you want to leave $20 or a thank-you note, they’ll appreciate it, but never feel obligated.
• “Can you use my products?” Sure, if you prefer. Some clients have specific allergies or just love their Method spray. We’ll use whatever you want, though our stuff is pretty great.
• “What about COVID still?” We kept the hospital-grade disinfectant option. Most people don’t need it regularly now, but if someone’s immunocompromised or you’re recovering from illness? Just ask. No extra charge for that.

Where We Actually Go

Definitely yes: All of Montreal island — NDG, PlateauAhuntsicDowntownOutremontyou name it. Laval — ChomedeySainte-Dorothéeall of it. Longueuil — Vieux-Longueuil, Saint-Hubert, Greenfield Park. South Shore down to BrossardSaint-Lambert. North Shore through RepentignyMascouche.

Far exurbs. Blainville, Boisbriand — call and we’ll figure out if we can make the routing work. Sometimes yes, sometimes we refer you to someone closer.

Look, Here’s My Honest Pitch

I’m not the cheapest option in Montreal. I know that. You can find someone on Facebook Marketplace for $20 an hour, cash, no questions asked.

But here’s what I offer that they don’t: consistency, accountability, and people who actually give a damn.

My cleaners are employees. They get benefits, stable schedules, fair wages. That’s why they stay — our turnover is ridiculously low for this industry. That means you get the same person who remembers that you hate the smell of lavender, that your cat hides under the bed, that your bathroom sink drain is finicky.

We’ve cleaned probably 2,000+ homes in this region. We’ve seen every weird layout Montreal architects dreamed up in the 60s. We know which Laval developments have the finicky water pressure. We understand Longueuil’s mix of old and new construction.

If you want cheap and fast? That’s not us. If you want reliable, thorough, and actually pleasant to deal with? Contact us. We will answer, probably directly, and we’ll figure out what you actually need.
