FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ABOUT OUR MOVE-IN CLEANING SERVICES IN TORONTO

How many Cleaners will you send to deliver my Move-In Cleaning Services?

WE WILL SEND ONE CLEANER ONLY 

WHO WILL TAKE THE TIME TO CLEAN YOUR NEW HOME FROM TOP TO BOTTOM.

We never send teams or crews of cleaners into a private home.

We send two cleaners only when a Move-In Cleaning requires more than 8 hours, 
or a client requires their Move-In Cleaning to be completed in a short period of time.

What are the qualifications of your Move-In Cleaners?

Our cleaning service staff is comprised largely of traditional cleaning ladies

who have had many years of cleaning experience prior to joining CUSTOM MAIDS.

Notwithstanding their prior qualifications, all staff-members have completed CUSTOM MAIDS’ Cleaning Service Training Program, and all have met the strict requirements necessary to work for CUSTOM MAIDS.

They are fully bonded; covered by Worker’s Compensation (in the event of injury);

and covered by comprehensive liability insurance (in the event of damage).

On what days of the week may I schedule my Move-In Cleaning Service?

Our Toronto Move-In Cleaning Services are offered 7 days a week, Monday through Sunday.

At what time will my Move-In Cleaner arrive?

Morning cleaning visits are scheduled for an arrival time of 8am to 8:30am.

Afternoon visits are scheduled for a 1pm to 2pm arrival.

Move-In Cleanings  exceeding 5 hours must be scheduled for morning arrival.

Depending on the location and size of your home,
we may be able to make slight adjustments to these arrival times

How will my Move-In Cleaner gain access to my home?

We’re happy to accommodate any entry arrangement that is comfortable for you.

Many clients let in their cleaner before leaving for work. Some hide a key for their cleaner or
leave a key with a neighbour. Those in condos or apartments often leave a key with their concierge or security desk. And many clients deliver us a key at CUSTOM MAIDS’ Toronto office. 

Just let us know an entry arrangement that will work for you and we’ll be happy to oblige.

Do I need to provide cleaning supplies 
for my Move-In Cleaning Service?

Yes. Your condo cleaner will use your cleaning supplies.

But the good news is : 

OUR PRICE POINT REFLECTS THIS APPROACH!
 

Perhaps surprisingly (given CUSTOM MAIDS' market position), our rates are exceptionally competitive
when compared to team cleaning services that travel in crews with cars and equipment.

Try our RATE CALCULATOR.  We’re sure you’ll be impressed.

Kindly take your cleaning supplies ahead to your new home for your Move-In Cleaner to use.

(See our list of 9 Essential Cleaning Products above.)

What forms of payment does Custom Maids accept?

Custom Maids accepts only electronic payments :

Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Visa Debit and MasterCard Debit.

Prior to your Move-In Cleaning Service, your credit card information will be taken by telephone
and recorded in Custom Maids' encrypted database.

AFTER each cleaning service, your credit card will be charged.  (We DO NOT process credit card payments in advance of your Move-In Cleaning Services.)

Are your Move-In Cleaning Service in Toronto completely Guaranteed?

YES, OUR SERVICE IS BACKED BY A 100% GUARANTEE OF SATISFACTION.

You have no reason to expect disappointment with Custom Maids.
After 46 years as the market leader, poor cleaning is “not our brand.”

But if you are not 100% ecstatic with the service you receive,
just let us know within 48 hours and we’ll be back to fix the problem immediately.

That’s our promise.

We know there are plenty of Move-In Cleaning Companies in Toronto.

But we don’t want to just be your Move-In Cleaning company today.

We want to be the cleaning service you turn to for months and years to come.

After my Move-In Cleaning Service,
what other cleaning services can you provide?

Once you’ve moved into your new home, CUSTOM MAIDS can continue to help meet your cleaning needs while you settle in and enjoy the excitement of starting fresh.

You can have a cleaning person come in just occasionally on an as-needed basis.

Or you can set up a cleaner on a regular, ongoing basis - weekly, bi-weekly or monthly.

Regardless of how often you use our cleaning services,

you’ll have your own cleaning lady (or man),


someone familiar with you and your expectations of your cleaning service.

If having the windows washed is a necessity,

then additional time should be booked.
