Why do cleaning companies hide their prices? π€
Last week, a business owner told me he called 7 cleaning companies. Every single one refused to give even a rough estimate without a "free walkthrough."
He just wanted to know: Can I afford this or not?
So here's the truth about commercial cleaning costs in Markham (2025):
Small office (up to 2,000 sq ft):
Weekly cleaning β Around $350-450/month
Medium office (2,000-5,000 sq ft):
3x weekly β Around $1,200-1,500/month
5x weekly β Around $1,800-2,200/month
Large facility (5,000+ sq ft):
Custom pricing, but typically $0.15-0.25/sq ft
π‘ Pro tip: Your price depends on 5 factors:
How often do we clean (daily is cheaper per visit than weekly)
Number of bathrooms (they take the longest)
Floor type (carpet vs. tile)
Kitchen condition (dirty dishes add time)
Who supplies consumables (TP, soap, etc)
β οΈ Warning: If someone quotes $20/hour, they probably don't have insurance or WSIB. That's YOUR liability if something goes wrong.
