How Much Does House Cleaning Cost in Ottawa?

The MPC Team · 2026-10-16

The short answer

The cost of house cleaning in Ottawa depends mainly on how big your home is, how much cleaning it needs, and how often you book. A tidy two-bedroom condo on a recurring plan costs far less than a first-time deep clean of a four-bedroom house in Kanata. That's why we start every client with a free online estimate, and offer a $25 in-home assessment (fully credited to your cleaning) when you want an exact price.

6 factors that set the price

• Size of the home: bedrooms, bathrooms and square footage. Bathrooms and kitchens take the most time.
• Current condition: a home cleaned regularly is faster to clean than one that hasn't been touched in months.
• Type of cleaning: regular upkeep, deep cleaning, move-in/move-out or post-renovation each involve different work.
• Frequency: recurring plans get a discount, and weekly visits get the biggest one.
• Add-ons: inside the oven, fridge or cabinets, interior windows, laundry.
• Pets and lifestyle: pet hair, kids, and Ottawa winters (salt and slush at the entrance) add work.

Estimates vs. final price

Our free online estimate gives you an estimated price based on what you tell us. Because we can't see your home, the final price may vary if extra work is needed once we're there. If you'd rather have a confirmed price before booking, choose the $25 in-home assessment: a team member visits, builds your checklist, and the $25 is deducted from your cleaning.

How to save on cleaning

• Choose a recurring plan. Weekly visits get our biggest discount, then every two weeks, then monthly.
• Start with one deep clean, then keep it up with regular visits. Maintenance is faster, so it costs less.
• Declutter before we arrive so we spend our time cleaning, not moving things.
• New client? Claim our first-cleaning welcome discount.
