The clean has to land on a date you do not control
Closing and possession dates are set by lawyers and lenders, not by whoever is cleaning. That is the constraint the whole booking works around. We schedule the handover clean against your closing or possession date so the property is finished when the keys change — and because larger Richmond Hill homes need a longer slot, that date is worth telling us as early as you have it.
Serving Oak Ridges, Mill Pond, Bayview Hill, Jefferson and the rest of Richmond Hill.
A big house, empty, is a different job
On a larger property the handover clean is dominated by the surfaces that furniture normally covers: inside every emptied wardrobe and cupboard, the floor beneath where beds and cabinets stood, skirting along a lot more wall, and every bathroom descaled rather than just the main one. Empty is what makes all of that quick. With furniture still in place the same clean costs more and finishes less.
Selling versus ending a tenancy
A pre-sale clean and an end-of-tenancy clean are not the same brief. Selling is about how the property reads in photographs and at a viewing — glass, floors, fixtures, light. Ending a tenancy is about the specific surfaces an inspection checks, most of which a camera would never notice. Realtors and landlords both use us here; say which outcome you need and the emphasis shifts to match.
Corridor rental turnover
Along the Yonge corridor the pattern is rental turnover rather than sale: a unit emptied, cleaned and re-let on a tight schedule, often with a building move window to work around. Landlords and property managers run these as standing work, and common areas in the corridor buildings can run on the same standing schedule.
