Frequently asked questions
FAQ — Spring Cleaning in Montreal
Can I use this checklist to do my own spring clean, without hiring you?
Absolutely. This checklist is designed to be a practical personal guide for any Montreal homeowner. Use it room by room, check items off as you go and adapt it to your home’s specific layout and needs. If you find certain tasks too time-consuming or physically demanding, our team is always available to handle the full list — or just the parts you’d rather delegate.
How long does it take to complete the full spring cleaning checklist?
Completing the full checklist yourself for an average apartment (3½ to 4½) typically takes 8 to 16 hours spread over a weekend. For a house, plan 12 to 24 hours. When our professional team handles it, the same scope is typically completed in 4 to 8 hours — we bring a complete team, professional equipment and experience that significantly reduces the time without cutting corners.
What products do you use for spring cleaning in Montreal?
We use eco-friendly, responsible cleaning products — biodegradable, low-VOC, free from harsh chlorine and ammonia. They are highly effective against bacteria, grime and allergens, while being safe for children, pets and allergy-sensitive individuals. We bring all necessary products and equipment — you don’t need to provide anything.
What is the difference between a spring clean and a regular cleaning visit?
A regular cleaning visit covers surfaces visible during daily use — countertops, sinks, floors, mirrors. A spring cleaning goes far deeper: inside appliances and cabinets, behind furniture, baseboards, ventilation vents, window tracks, wall washing and carpet shampooing. It is typically 2 to 3 times more thorough than a standard visit and is designed as a seasonal reset rather than routine maintenance.
How much does it cost to have The Montreal Cleaners complete the spring cleaning checklist?
We use flat-rate pricing — the cost depends on the size of your home and the items on the checklist. We provide a free on-site estimate: we visit your home at no cost, review the checklist together and confirm the price in writing before work begins. No hidden fees.
