Take a deep breath. Imagine your to-do list is clear and your precious free time is now used pursuing your passions.
Start that new hobby, crack open a new book, take your kids swimming, or host your friends for game night! Your house is fresh and clean and you can thank yourself for this because you took action to reclaim your time. You hired a professional cleaning company and now you can enjoy your home instead of stressing about what needs to be done. Breathe in. We’ve got you. Let’s work together to make life easier for you.
Let me give you the honest truth here: anyone can say they're a house cleaner. And they do. The moment we were old enough to clear a plate from the dinner table was the moment we all became house cleaners. Being a professional house cleaner, however, is about more than just years of experience. Professional house cleaners are dedicated to educating themselves on the proper usage of cleaning products/tools and learning techniques to increase efficiency while maintaining quality service. Professionals do not mix cleaning chemicals together, and when we damage something, we let you know. We are who we say we are and have the paperwork to prove it (registered, insured, bonded, vulnerable sector checked, etc.). We pride ourselves on earning your trust! As they say, your home is your castle. We are there to support you, to lighten your workload, and reduce your stress.
A professional cleaner does the house work so you don't have to. But remember: cleaning is a luxury service and to clean properly takes time. Would you rush the mechanic who is replacing your break pads? Would you scold your server more for taking an extra couple minutes to enter your order correctly or for delivering you the wrong food? Would you ask the dishwasher at your favourite resturant to cut some corners?
With all the above considered, let me address some common concerns about hiring a house cleaner:
What is it like to hire a house cleaner?
Remember high school, it’s the night before a big test and you’re desperate for a snow day. You wake up the next morning with the snow flying and the radio announcing that school is indeed cancelled for the day! Exhilaration! A much needed reprieve.
This is what it’s like to come home to a clean house. Hire a house cleaner so you can take an important item off your to-do list: cleaning your home.
Does my home have to be clean already?
No. Absolutely not. That is why you called us. We mean it when we say that we serve you without judgement. Let us do the cleaning for you. With that said, it is imporant to distinguish between cleaning a home and tidying a home. Cleaning a home involves getting rid of dirt and germs. Tidying a home involves putting your things away where they belong in an organized fashion. While Uplift Cleaning Company offers you both services, our primary focus is on cleaning your home. To save you time and money, we encourage you to tidy-up your home prior to your cleaning. We will take care of the rest.
Uplift Cleaning Company strives for quality over quantity.
But I can clean my whole house in four hours. Why are you saying it will take longer?
As a professional cleaning company, Uplift Cleaning Company sees cleaning as a process. We do not just wipe down your surfaces and call it a day. We dust your surfaces first. Then we wash them. Next we dry them. Always striving to make your home look like new. Our final touches may include polishing, arranging pillows and blankets, folding toilet paper and adding a toilet stamp. Uplift Cleaning Company always looks for the opportunity to go the extra mile. The hours it takes to clean your home is determined by its current level of cleanliness and based on our experience. We know where to look for dirt and how to correct it when we find it. This build up of dirt is not always aparent to the homeowner: ... Is that grease on your blacksplash? Is your grout really that colour? Is your shower door translucent or just dirty? ... We can clean your house from top to bottom. However, we cannot work faster than the time it takes to get the job done properly and we will not sacrifice quality by cutting corners. It is important to note that your first cleaning should be a deep cleaning and will take longer than a regular maitenance cleaning. Once your house has been cleaned the first couple times, the cleaning process will become easier and quicker as there will be less build up of dirt and grime.
What does it cost for a professional cleaning serivce?
Research shows that residential house cleaning ranges between $20 to $30 per hour on the lower end, and $60 to $90 per hour on the higher end. Cleaning companies who charge on the higher end provide a professional cleaning service.
Uplift Cleaning Company provides two options for cleaning your home: we can clean your home at an hourly rate of $50+/hour (depending on the size and location of your home); or, for a more budget friendly option, we offer cleaning packages where we focus our efforts on specific areas of your home.
Is Uplift Cleaning Company the cheapest cleaning company?
No; however, our rates are competative with the market. When you pay for our service, you pay for:
-Exceptional care + quality
-A cleaning company that is insured and bonded
-Cleaning staff who are vulnerable sector checked
-A highly trained cleaning team
-Satisfaction guaranteed through an individualized cleaning plan
-We provide our own equipment and products

Is an initial consultation necessary?
Yes! The initial consultation allows us to assess your space (i.e., its size, level of cleanliness, any health and safety concerns), so that we can provide you with an accurate estimate regarding how much time it will take to clean your home, and how much it will cost to clean your home. It also lets us properly prepare for the job: knowing the space helps us determine what products and equipment to bring. In addition, it allows us to address any health and safety concerns. More so, it allows us to create your individualized cleaning plan. When hiring Uplift Cleaning Company, we make every effort to tailor our services to each client and their budgets by creating custom cleaning plans. During the initial consultation, we discuss what you'd like done in each area of your home. We discuss your priorities and make every effort to create a cleaning plan that will meet your needs and not overextend your finances. Your cleaning plan is essential for how we guarantee our work. Ultimately, the consultation allows us to clarify and establish expectations of the work to be done, and make sure we are all on the same page. . . . And it's free!
What does Uplift Cleaning Company do when we clean your home?
As a service based business, every cleaning is our chance to earn your trust. We follow your custom cleaning plan and complete all items before finishing a cleaning. Uplift Cleaning Company is an independent cleaning business, so we have some flexibility for accommodating your special requests.
Do you use professional-grade cleaning equipment?
Yes, we do! This is one big advantage we have.
We use a commercial vacuum and we use professional-grade cleaning products when appropriate. This allows us to produce better results in less time.
The other advantage is our knowledge and passion for cleaning. We clean homes professionally every day and want to bring this experience to your home!
How do I book my first cleaning?

During this time we will discuss your house cleaning needs. Then, we will create a custom cleaning plan for you and provide you with an estimate for service. Upon your approval, we will schedule your weekly, biweekly, or monthly cleanings. Alternatively, you can email us or book online.
You work hard and shouldn’t need to spend your weekends scrubbing your toilet and polishing your sinks. Take back your free time. Pursue your passions and live your beautiful life doing the things you love.
