Moving day is one of the most stressful occasions in a person’s life. While there’s packing to be done, arranging for the move itself to take place, not to mention reams of paperwork to sort out, there’s no need to include tedious tasks like cleaning baseboards at midnight. It’s no surprise that Move out cleaning services have proved to be such a godsend for residents of the Greater Toronto Area. At PureMaids, we operate on one simple tenet: More moments less mess – and nowhere is this truer than in the context of a move.
Why Professional Move-Out Cleaning Matters
The standards that landlords and property managers have to maintain during their final walk-throughs are very rigid. One missed corner or spot may mean the difference between saving or foregoing hundreds or thousands of dollars in your security deposit. Experienced cleaning services in Markham have knowledge of exactly what is expected.
Apart from money, simply relocating is physically and emotionally draining. To add deep cleaning to such a process is just bound to encourage poor cleaning standards. Professionals come equipped with industrial-strength cleaning tools and expert knowledge that is not likely to catch every detail in your exhausted state.
The standard checklists to be done during move-out cleaning include activities that fewer people ever undertake. These include:
- Cleaning the interiors of all appliances like ovens, fridges, and dishwashers
- Washing windows, tracks, and screens
- Cleaning grout lines and removing mineral deposits of hard water
- Cleaning all cabinets inside and out
- Removing Scuff Marks From Walls & Baseboards
- Deep carpet cleaning or Mooring All Floors Completely
It can easily take 8-12 hours to pack alone for the average apartment move – that’s time that could be better used during the transfer or in your new location.
What makes Markham Move-Out Cleaning Unique
The rental market in Markham is very dynamic, and the standards of cleanliness remain high. This is because landlords in Markham have high standards of cleanliness because they always have the option to quickly find new tenants. Thus, cleaning assistance can be considered a must for securing your deposit.
PureMaids is well-versed in the market. We have experience working with property management companies to take care of their needs. Our teams always come equipped to meet or exceed your standards to ensure your satisfaction during the final walk-throughs.
Timing is important during moves. It may be necessary to have household cleaning done between your move-out date and your lease expiration or on the same day your furniture is moved out. Our flexible schedule can handle such tight timelines. This includes availability during the weekend if necessary.
How the Process Works
How to begin with PureMaids is simple. Just enter your move-out date, size of your property, and if there is any specific concern your landlord may have. We develop a plan to meet those needs.
Our team brings with them whatever is needed. You do not have to worry about whether or not products or tools will be needed. Our cleaning solutions work faster and more efficiently than store products. This is accomplished safely regardless of the surface.
The overall cleaning duration is 4-6 hours if it’s a two-bedroom apartment. In our cleaning service, we ensure we tackle every room item on our checklist to ensure we leave no stone unturned.
Once finished with our task, we carry out a check on the quality with the same critical eye your landlord is going to apply. Also, if we find something that does not meet our standards, we take actions to correct it. Often, our clients schedule their walk-through appointment with us within 24 hours before our service.
Protecting Your Investment and Peace of Mind
Security deposits can be serious money – a month’s rent. To lose part of it because of cleaning problems is to experience frustration even if one is a model tenant. It is a risk that is completely eliminated with professional cleaning.
Documentation is also important. PureMaids offers before and after pictures of the area to be cleaned. This is always useful if there is a dispute during the return of deposits.
More moments less mess is a promise of something extra during the move. Rather than wasting your last day in the old home scrubbing walls on your hands and knees, you can take care of tasks that demand attention: finalizing meter readings or simply saying hello to your neighbors.
Smart Tips for Move-Out Success
Arrange for your cleaning service to come when all furniture and possessions have been removed. This is because cleaning is done more efficiently when there is no furniture to walk through.
Share your precise concerns with your cleaning team. Did your landlord bring up discolored grout or kitchen dirt during a walk-through check? Share those points with your cleaning team.
It is always advisable to book in advance if possible. For instance, during peak season for moves (April to September), slots with high demand get filled quickly. Think about doing a move-out cleaning at the same time as your move-in cleaning at the new location. This can be combined with moves to save money. Some companies, such as PureMaids, offer combined services.
Moving is a second chance – a new neighborhood to explore, new experiences to be had, new memories to be made. Let the cleaning concerns associated with leaving your current place cloud your excitement or jeopardize your well-deserved deposit money. Professionals can turn this unpleasant task into another item to cross off your to-Do list related to your move. You have your hands full with your move. Let the professionals take care of the cleaning.
