*Cleaning quotes are not only a function of frequency and square footage. There are other factors that go into pricing, which vary by location and result in a range of prices. The lower price indicated is the least expensive scenario for simple cleaning jobs, and the upper price would relate to more complex jobs.
Accurate commercial cleaning pricing really needs a professional cleaning company to visit your facility to understand the exact requirements, cleaning standards, and budgetary constraints.
Cost of Commercial Cleaning Services in Ontario
The cost of commercial cleaning services across Ontario is influenced by several key factors. The table below includes the major factors impacting the cost of office cleaning services. While many of these factors are common to specialty services, it’s important to know that ultimately every project is unique, and requires detailed attention to ensure a professional commercial cleaning company can offer Peace of Mind along with the Clean Workspace on a consistent basis.
Any professional Janitorial Cleaning Service will comply by concepts promoted by the International Janitorial Cleaning Services Association or equivalent concepts and Arelli Cleaning is no different.
What are the Factors Impacting Commercial Cleaning Costs?
Labour costs in Ontario range between minimum wage and $35 per hour, depending on the city, type of service, and experience level.
Cleaning during business hours can disrupt operations and usually costs more than nighttime cleaning. While some facilities need daytime porters, cleaning crews often find it easier to avoid traffic during the day.
Getting to your facility takes time and depending on where your it’s located, cleaning crews incur transportation cost and time to get to and return from your facility.
Is your facility in the downtown core? Add parking costs for cleaners. They have to park their vehicles and move their equipment to get on site.
High-traffic areas require more frequent and thorough cleaning, driving up costs.
The complexity of the job (e.g., window cleaning, carpet cleaning, disinfection) affects pricing.
The specific cleaning needs of facilities like medical centers or warehouses can vary significantly, impacting costs.
Larger spaces take more time and resources, so the square footage directly affects the total cost.
Specialized cleaning equipment (e.g., high-powered vacuums or floor scrubbers) adds to the overall expense.
Routine cleaning is generally cheaper than deep cleaning or disinfecting services, especially post-COVID-19.
Different types of floors require different types of equipment to clean. Think carpet vs. vinyl, natural stone, hardwood and selection of many more different types.
How Can I find out the Cost of Cleaning for Different Size Facilities?
Although exact pricing will depend on a site visit, we’ve created a list of approximate costs for different regions in Ontario which we think could help provide an overview.
Facilities larger than 7,000 square feet often require detailed discussions to ensure cleaning plans meet specific needs while staying within budget. A walk-through allows cleaning service providers to understand site traffic, necessary cleaning levels, and unique requirements such as sanitation, deep cleaning, or frequent disinfection, all of which will impact the final cost.
Commercial cleaning services in Ontario are tailored based on at least the 11 factors we mentioned before. Consulting with Arelli Cleaning Field Experts can help ensuring you get a service that meets your expectations while staying on budget.
