If you've been searching for house cleaning in Ajax, Mississauga, Toronto, or anywhere across the GTA, you've probably noticed prices all over the map. This guide breaks down real 2025 market rates based on actual jobs posted on TaskBridge.
Average House Cleaning Costs in GTA
Here's what you can realistically expect to pay:
| Service Type | Price Range | Notes | |---|---|---| | Regular (2BR) | $80–$120 | Weekly or bi-weekly | | Regular (3BR) | $100–$150 | Most common | | Deep Clean (3BR) | $150–$250 | First-time clean | | Move-In/Out | $200–$350 | Full property | | Carpet Cleaning | $100–$250 | Per room/full home | | Office Cleaning | $120–$300 | Per visit |
What Affects the Price?
1. Size of the home
A 1-bedroom condo near Scarborough averages $80–$100. A 4-bedroom detached in Oakville? Expect $180–$250.
2. Frequency
Weekly clients consistently pay 15–20% less than one-time cleans. Many providers in Ajax and Pickering offer loyalty pricing.
3. Condition of the home
A first-time deep clean takes 2–4x longer than a regular maintenance clean. Budget accordingly.
4. Supplies
Most providers bring their own products. If you prefer eco-friendly cleaners, confirm ahead of time — some providers charge a small premium.
