Move-In Cleaning After Buying a Home in Ontario
Buying a home in Ontario is one of the biggest investments you'll make — and moving in before a thorough professional clean means moving into someone else's accumulated grime, even if the sellers cleaned before closing. A professional move-in clean before your furniture arrives is one of the best investments you can make in the first week of ownership.
Why Clean Before Moving Furniture In
- Complete access: An empty home allows cleaning of every surface, floor edge, inside every cabinet and closet, and behind/under areas that furniture will cover permanently after move-in
- Previous owner habits: Professional cleaners find surprising things in homes after ownership transfer — inside ovens, fridge gaskets, and cabinet bottoms that the sellers' cleaning missed
- Fresh start: Moving into a professionally cleaned home sets the right tone for your cleaning routine going forward
What a Move-In Clean Covers
- Full kitchen: inside oven, fridge, all cabinets, range hood, counters, sink
- All bathrooms: grout scrub, toilet, tub/shower, vanity, floors
- All rooms: baseboards, door frames, window sills, inside closets
- All floors: vacuum and mop throughout
