Cleaning Services North York

A standard North York house cleaning starts at $188 for a 1-bedroom / 1-bathroom home and goes up by bedroom and bathroom count. Most North York homes fall between $188 and $278 before 13% HST. Hourly service runs $59 per cleaner per hour with a 3-hour minimum.

• Studio / 1 bed / 1 bath — Yonge-Sheppard or North York Centre condo: $158–$188
• 2 bed / 1 bath — Newtonbrook or Bathurst Manor bungalow: $208
• 3 bed / 2 bath — detached in Willowdale or Don Mills: $258

• Recurring discount from 2nd visit: 20% weekly / 15% bi-weekly / 10% monthly

A standard clean on a 3-bedroom North York home typically takes 2.5 to 3.5 hours with one cleaner, depending on condition and square footage. A first clean on an older Willowdale or Bathurst Manor bungalow with original tile and hardwood can run closer to 4 hours.

• 2-bed home: 2 to 2.5 hours with 1 cleaner
• 3-bed / 2-bath detached in Willowdale or Don Mills: 2.5 to 3.5 hours

Hellamaid's hourly rate in North York is $59 per cleaner per hour with a 3-hour minimum. One cleaner for 3 hours costs $177 before HST. Two cleaners for 3 hours is $354 before HST and covers significantly more ground in the same time.

• 1 cleaner × 3 hrs: $177 before HST — good for studios or targeted rooms
• 2 cleaners × 3 hrs: $354 before HST — covers most 2-bedroom homes
• 2 cleaners × 4 hrs: $472 before HST — post-reno Willowdale bungalow or full 3-bed
• 3 cleaners × 3 hrs: $531 before HST — fast turnaround on larger homes
• Recurring hourly bookings also qualify for the 10–20% frequency discount

Tipping is never required and not expected. That said, it is genuinely appreciated after a first clean, a move-out, or any visit that was more involved than usual. There is no standard amount. $10 to $20 per cleaner is a common range when clients choose to tip.

• Tipping is not built into Hellamaid's pricing or expected at any booking
• A tip after a deep clean or difficult move-out is a meaningful gesture for the cleaner
• Cash left on the counter works fine — there is no in-app tipping prompt
• If a team of two showed up, tipping each individually is appreciated
• A Google review naming the cleaner is another meaningful way to recognize great work

A professional cleaning service should arrive on time, follow a consistent room-by-room system, and leave every booked area visibly clean. What it does not include: laundry, dishes, exterior windows, or tasks outside the booked scope. If something was missed, contact within 24 hours and we return to fix it at no charge.

• Included by default: all surfaces, bathrooms, kitchen, floors, baseboards
• Not included by default: laundry, dishes, exterior windows, garage, yard
• Add-ons like inside oven, fridge, or cabinets must be selected at booking
• All supplies come with the cleaner — you do not need to provide anything
• Satisfaction guarantee: report a missed area within 24 hours for a free return visit

• Access instructions are saved after the first visit and reused automatically
• Condo buildings: concierge or FOB access sorted before arrival
