By Mah Sadegh · Published May 2026 · Fact-checked August 2026 · 8 min read · Editorial standards
House cleaning in Toronto starts at $149 for a 1-bedroom home — a flat rate that covers the full standard scope, every visit. Rates run to $289 for a 4-bedroom home, and recurring bookings save 10% to 20%. Every cleaner completes an Enhanced Canadian Criminal Record Check and identity verification through OneID before their first booking, and carries their own $2M commercial general liability policy. Houmse Inc. carries a separate $2M occurrence-form policy with Northbridge Insurance. Learn how we approve cleaners.
Houmse prices by bedroom count and service type. Bathrooms, square footage and pets are not currently priced separately — a 2-bedroom home is $199 whether it has one bathroom or three.

Flat Rate vs. Hourly: How Toronto Cleaning Is Priced
Toronto cleaning services price either by the home or by the hour. Statistics Canada wage data via Job Bank (Labour Force Survey, 2023–2024, Toronto region) reports a median wage of $19.23/hour for light-duty cleaners in the Toronto region (range $17.60–$25.90). That is what an employed cleaner earns — not what a service charges a customer. Agency and marketplace rates include insurance, screening, equipment, scheduling and margin on top. Houmse prices flat-rate by bedroom count — $149 for a 1-bedroom, $289 for a 4-bedroom — regardless of how many hours the team needs. You see the exact price before booking.
