Professional House Cleaning In Edmonton, Done Right The First Time
Looking for reliable house cleaning in Edmonton? Most people who land on this page have already tried one or two cleaning companies and walked away frustrated — surprise add-on fees, a different cleaner every visit, work that looked fine on the surface but missed the spots that actually matter. That is the gap we built our company to close.
We are the residential cleaning service Edmonton homeowners book when they want the job done properly the first time and kept up consistently after that. Our home cleaning teams have been cleaning Alberta houses since 2013 — through every chinook, every freeze-thaw cycle, every September dust storm — and we have a 5.0 Google rating across hundreds of verified reviews to show for it. No bots, no review-farm filler. Just real Edmonton clients who keep us coming back.
This page walks through exactly what we do, how recurring vs one-time service works, what is included on every visit, and the specific reasons families across Edmonton — from Glenora bungalows to Windermere new builds and Terwillegar townhouses — choose us as their long-term house cleaners.
Recurring Or One-Time? How To Pick The Right House Cleaning Schedule
The first decision most Edmonton clients make is whether to book a recurring schedule or a one-time clean. There is no wrong answer — the right pick depends on your home, your family rhythm, and what you are actually trying to solve. Here is how we usually frame it on the phone.
Recurring House Cleaning — For Edmonton Households Who Want It Handled
Recurring is the right call if you want your home consistently maintained and you are tired of "cleaning weekend" eating up Saturdays you would rather spend somewhere else. Recurring clients receive preferential rates compared to one-time bookings, get the same assigned team every visit, and lock in priority scheduling around busy seasons (think Christmas, end of August, spring break).
Weekly
Most popular among dual-income Edmonton families, homes with young children, multi-pet households, and anyone with allergies or asthma. Weekly visits keep dust, dander, and bathroom buildup from ever getting ahead of you. Best per-visit recurring rate.
Bi-Weekly
The sweet spot for the majority of Edmonton households we serve. Two-week intervals are short enough that things never feel out of control, long enough that the budget stays sustainable. Same team, same routine, same predictable result.
Monthly
Built for empty nesters, smaller condos in Oliver or Downtown, retirees, or couples who handle light maintenance themselves between visits. Monthly cleans pair well with one or two seasonal deep cleans per year to reset everything back to baseline.
One-Time House Cleaning — When You Need It Done Once, Done Right
One-time cleaning is the right call when there is a specific reason behind it — guests arriving, a renovation just wrapped, the in-laws just left, end of a long winter, before listing the house, or simply because life got ahead of the housework. Our one-time cleaning service covers the same task list as recurring, with no commitment afterward. Many Edmonton clients book a one-time clean first, see how the team works, then transition into a recurring rhythm if it fits.
What Every House Cleaning Includes — The Full Task List
Generic checklists pulled from a Pinterest board are not how you keep an Edmonton home actually clean. Hard water mineral buildup, pet dander accumulating under furniture, slush salt tracked in from October through April — these are real problems that need a real method. Here is exactly what our cleaners do on every visit, every room, every time.
Kitchen
- Countertops sanitized and wiped down to clear surfaces
- Exterior of all appliances cleaned (fridge, dishwasher, oven, range hood)
- Microwave cleaned inside and out
- Stovetop and burners scrubbed
- Backsplash wiped down
- Sink and faucet scrubbed and polished
- Cabinet fronts wiped
- Floors vacuumed and mopped
- Trash emptied, new bag placed
Bathrooms
- Toilet scrubbed inside, outside, and behind
- Sink, vanity, and faucet sanitized
- Shower and tub scrubbed thoroughly
- Tiles and grout cleaned
- Mirrors polished streak-free
- Floor washed and dried
- Counter items rearranged neatly
- Trash emptied, new bag placed
Bedrooms & Living Areas
- All floors vacuumed or mopped
- All furniture and surfaces dusted
- Mirrors and glass cleaned
- Cobwebs removed from corners and ceiling edges
- Light switches and door handles sanitized
- Window sills wiped
- Trash emptied, new bag placed
- Beds made, linens changed if a clean set is laid out
Need more than maintenance cleaning? Our deep cleaning service adds inside ovens and fridges, baseboards, window sills, behind appliances, full grout scrubbing, light fixtures, and every hard-to-reach surface that recurring cleans intentionally skip. Most Edmonton households book a deep clean once or twice a year and run recurring service in between.
Our Edmonton House Cleaning Method — Built For Alberta Homes
Cleaning a house in Edmonton is not the same as cleaning a house anywhere else. Our local conditions hit homes hard. Hard water leaves mineral spots and soap scum that off-the-shelf bathroom sprays barely touch. Dry winters generate static dust that settles fast and re-settles within hours of being wiped. Slush months track salt and grit deep into entryway carpets and hardwood. And the Edmonton wind brings in dust from gravel back roads, construction sites, and farmland for half the year.
Over the past thirteen years we have built a method that handles all of it. Every cleaner on our team is trained on the same five-step process, regardless of whether your home is a 900-square-foot Westmount condo or a 3,500-square-foot Riverbend executive home.
1. Pre-Walk and Plan
On every first visit, the lead cleaner walks the home with you (or follows your written notes if you are not home) to identify priority areas, spots that need extra attention, surfaces or finishes that need specific products, and anything you want left alone. We document this on a job card so every future visit reflects your preferences.
2. Top-Down, Dry-To-Wet
We clean from the top of each room down to the floor and from dry tasks (dusting, cobweb removal) to wet tasks (sanitizing, mopping). This prevents dust from resettling on surfaces we have already cleaned and is the single biggest reason our cleans hold up better between visits than the work most franchises produce.
3. Two-Cloth System For Cross-Contamination
Every cleaner carries colour-coded microfibre cloths so the cloth used in the bathroom never touches a kitchen counter, and vice versa. This is standard in commercial healthcare cleaning. Most residential outfits in Edmonton do not bother. We do.
4. Eco-Friendly, Non-Toxic Products On Every Visit
Everything we use is biodegradable and safe for children, pets, and people with allergies or chemical sensitivities. We supply all products and equipment, so you do not need to buy or store anything. If you have specific products you prefer us to use instead, we are happy to switch.
5. Quality Walkthrough Before We Leave
The lead cleaner walks the home one final time before locking up, checking against your job card. If something is missed, it is corrected before we leave. If we find something that needs attention beyond the scope of the visit, we flag it for you so nothing goes unnoticed.
What Edmonton Homeowners Say About Our House Cleaning
A 5.0 Google rating across hundreds of verified reviews, drawn from real Edmonton families across every neighbourhood we serve. Here is a sample.
"We have 7 cats and you can imagine the hair. Nice To Be Clean comes in and cleans my house fabulously every time. Dasha makes sure everything is done in a timely manner, and she vacuums all my cat posts. I've used Dasha and Nice To Be Clean for over 5 years and we are always so pleased with the cleaning."
— Rose Schmid · Edmonton
"Great attention to details — every square inch of my home is spotless after Nice To Be Clean is done. Even under the furniture, and inside closets. Dasha gets straight to work and is very professional, following up after each cleaning to see if there are any additional things I need done."
— Barb Barone · Edmonton
"We have used Nice To Be Clean on more than one occasion and they do exceptional work. They are always very professional and clean better than other companies I have used. I definitely recommend them!"

Get A Free Quote For House Cleaning In Edmonton
We do not publish flat rates because flat rates lie. A 1,200-square-foot Oliver condo with one bathroom and no pets is a fundamentally different job from a 2,800-square-foot Windermere home with three bathrooms, two dogs, and a finished basement. Pretending the two cost the same is how cleaning companies end up sending surprise invoices, and we have seen too many Edmonton homeowners burned by exactly that to operate that way ourselves.
Instead, we give you a personalized quote based on your specific home in under two minutes on the phone. Two things to know going in:
Recurring clients pay less than one-time bookings. Weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly visits all qualify for preferential pricing — once we know your home, the work gets faster and more efficient, and we pass that back to you. The longer you stay with us, the better the math gets.
You have flexible options. If you want a complete top-to-bottom clean covering every task on our list, we can do that. If you have a budget cap and want us to focus on the rooms and tasks that matter most to you, we can do that too. We tell you up front exactly what fits inside your budget so there are no surprises on invoice day.
Call (780) 940-3866 or fill out our online booking form for a free quote. Most quotes take less than two minutes, and we can usually book a first clean within 5 to 10 business days inside Edmonton city limits.

House Cleaning Edmonton — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does house cleaning cost in Edmonton?
Every home is different. Square footage, number of bathrooms, number of pets, current condition, and how often you book all change the math. We provide free, no-obligation, personalized quotes based on your specific home. Recurring clients (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly) receive preferential rates compared to one-time bookings, and we offer flexible options — including a complete task-list clean and a budget-capped clean — depending on what works best for you. Call (780) 940-3866 or fill out our online booking form for an accurate quote in under two minutes.
Do Edmonton house cleaners use eco-friendly products?
We do, on every visit. Everything Nice To Be Clean uses is non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe for children, pets, and people with allergies or chemical sensitivities. We supply all products and equipment, so you do not need to buy or store anything. If you have specific products you prefer us to use instead, we are happy to switch.
Do I need to be home during house cleaning in Edmonton?
No. The majority of our recurring clients leave a spare key, a lockbox code, or a garage code. Every staff member is fully bonded, insured, and criminally background-checked before their first shift, so your home is in safe hands whether you are there or not. We notify you when we arrive and when the job is complete.
How often should I get my Edmonton home professionally cleaned?
Most Edmonton families settle into bi-weekly visits — short enough to keep things consistently fresh, sustainable enough to fit the budget. Homes with pets, young children, or anyone with allergies often prefer weekly. Smaller condos and lower-traffic homes often do well on a monthly cadence. We typically recommend starting with a one-time deep clean to establish a baseline, then transitioning into a recurring rhythm that fits your life.
Do you send the same house cleaners every visit?
Yes. We assign a consistent team to each recurring client and they stay with you. Over a few visits they learn your home's layout, your preferences, the spots that always need extra attention, and the things you want left alone. If your assigned cleaner is sick or on vacation, we send a properly briefed substitute — never an unfamiliar face with no context.
Are you bonded and insured?
Yes. We carry both general liability insurance and theft bonding on every job. Every staff member is bonded, insured, and criminally background-checked before their first shift. We are happy to provide proof of coverage on request. We have operated continuously in Edmonton since 2013 with zero insurance claims against us.
How quickly can you start house cleaning at my home?
For most addresses inside Edmonton city limits, we can do a first clean within 5 to 10 business days. If you have an urgent same-week need, call (780) 940-3866 and we will tell you honestly what is and is not possible — sometimes we have a cancellation slot available, sometimes we do not.
Do you also do move-out cleaning?
Yes. Our move-out cleaning service is one of Edmonton's most popular, designed around Alberta rental inspection standards to help you recover your full damage deposit. Same-week availability in most cases. Call as soon as you know your possession date and we will hold a priority slot.
