The problem is rarely dirt. It’s time, trust and consistency.
Most Montrealers who contact us have already tried a cleaner or two. The complaints are always the same: the crew changes every visit, quality drifts after month two, and nobody wants to be the one to complain. We built Ménage Total around fixing those three things.
You get your weekend back
A thorough home clean takes one untrained person five to seven hours. Our two-person crews finish the same work in about two, because the sequence is planned and the equipment is commercial.
- Fixed arrival windows
- No supervision needed
- Evening & weekend slots
The same crew, every visit
Recurring clients are matched to a named cleaner who learns the house. No re-explaining where the vacuum goes, no stranger in your hallway every second Tuesday.
- Named primary cleaner
- Trained backup for vacations
- Written preference sheet
A standard you can read
Every service has a written checklist and a supervisor signs off against it. If a line is missed, the re-clean is automatic, not something you have to negotiate.
- Room-by-room checklist
- Supervisor sign-off
- Photo report on request
Fully insured and bonded
Every cleaner is background-checked and covered by our commercial liability insurance. If something is damaged, we handle it. You never claim on your own home insurance.
Eco-friendly, at no extra cost
Non-toxic, biodegradable products that are safe for children, pets and allergy sufferers. Commercial vacuums and colour-coded microfibre come with every visit.
The price we quote is the price you pay
You get a clear written quote before any work begins, with the tasks listed room by room. No hourly rate that drifts, no hidden fees, no deposit.
Ten cleaning services, one insured company
From a weekly tidy of a Plateau 3½ to a nightly contract for a downtown office floor, the same vetting, insurance and guarantee apply.

1-833-800-3330Exactly what gets cleaned, room by room

Cleaning in a fixed sequence, not a random order
Amateur cleaning wastes motion: dust falls onto a floor that was already mopped, and the bathroom gets whatever energy is left at the end. Our crews work top-down and dry-to-wet, finishing each room before moving on. That’s why two trained people outperform four untrained ones.
- Top-down, dry-to-wet
- Ceilings and fixtures first, floors last. Nothing is cleaned twice.
- Colour-coded microfibre
- Separate cloths for bathrooms, kitchen and living areas, so bacteria never travel between rooms.
- Dwell time respected
- Disinfectants stay on the surface for the full contact time on the label, not wiped off in ten seconds.
- Final inspection
- A supervisor walks the space against the checklist before the crew packs up.
Built for the way Montrealers live
Cleaning a Plateau walk-up in February is not the same job as cleaning a Brossard house in June. After twenty years in the city, our crews plan around its seasons, buildings and habits.
Winter salt and slush
From November to April, de-icing salt tracks into entries and dulls hardwood. Winter visits put extra time on entries, mats and floors so residue is lifted before it etches the finish.
July 1st moving day
Quebec’s moving day fills calendars weeks ahead. Book move-out and move-in cleans in early June; we keep a few next-day slots for urgent move-outs and lease inspections.
Plexes, walk-ups and outdoor stairs
Duplexes and triplexes mean narrow staircases and no elevator. Crews bring compact equipment and plan the room order so nothing is carried up twice.
Condos and towers
From Griffintown to Île-des-Sœurs, tell us about concierge, parking and service-elevator rules when you book, and the crew plans its arrival around them.
Heritage homes and original floors
Westmount, Outremont and Plateau homes often keep original hardwood, plaster mouldings and marble. We use pH-neutral products on stone and damp, never wet, methods on wood, and your preference sheet records which surfaces need special care.
What cheap hourly cleaning really costs
We’re not the cheapest option in Montreal and we don’t try to be. Here is exactly where the difference goes, so you can decide for yourself.
| What matters to you | Ménage Total | Typical low-cost cleaner |
|---|---|---|
| If something breaks | Covered by our commercial liability insurance and bonding | You claim on your own home insurance |
| Who enters your home | Background-checked, reference-verified, trained on site | Often unverified, frequently subcontracted |
| Consistency month to month | A named cleaner with a written preference sheet | Whoever is available that week |
| If a room is missed | Automatic free re-clean within 24 hours | A refund argument, if anything |
| Supplies and equipment | Commercial vacuums and eco products included | Often your products, your vacuum |
| Payroll and taxes | Declared employees, CNESST coverage, invoices for accounting | Cash, no paper trail, no coverage |
Cleaning is one of the few services where the cheapest quote carries real legal and financial exposure. A declared, insured company costs more per hour, and considerably less when something goes wrong.

What Montrealers say after the crew leaves
Average of 487 reviews from homeowners, landlords and office managers
They have cleaned my apartment every Thursday for fourteen months and I have never once had to send a correction. The same two people arrive, they know the place, and the bathroom is genuinely spotless rather than just wiped.
We were three days from the lease inspection and convinced we would lose part of the deposit. They brought four people, worked through the oven and the closet tracks, and the landlord returned the full amount without a single deduction.
I manage six short-term units. Ménage Total turns them over between an eleven o’clock checkout and a three o’clock check-in without fail, and they text me a photo if a guest has damaged anything.
Office cleaning done right: consistent, reliable and always professional. Highly recommended.
Frequently asked questions about cleaning in Montreal
Still unsure? Our phone is answered by the person who schedules the crews.
1-833-800-3330Every day, 8 AM to 8 PM
No question matches. Call 1-833-800-3330 and ask the person who schedules the crews.
How much does a cleaning service cost in Montreal?
The price depends on the size of the space, its condition, the number of bathrooms, pets and how often you would like us to come. We do not publish set rates because every home and business is different: you receive a free, fixed written quote before we start, usually the same day. Call 1-833-800-3330 or request your quote online.
What cleaning services do you offer in Montreal?
Ten services under one insured company: regular residential cleaning, deep cleaning, move-in and move-out cleaning, commercial cleaning, office cleaning, Airbnb turnover cleaning, window cleaning, carpet and upholstery cleaning, pressure washing and post-construction cleaning, for homes and businesses across Greater Montreal.
How do I book a cleaning?
Call 1-833-800-3330 or fill out the online quote form. We reply the same day with a written estimate, confirm your date, time and service details in writing, and your insured crew arrives on time with all supplies. Same-week appointments are usually available.
What cleaning products do you use?
Eco-certified, non-toxic and biodegradable products that are safe for children, pets and allergy sufferers, included at no extra cost. If you prefer your own products, for example because of a fragrance sensitivity, leave them out and note it on your service sheet.
Do you bring your own cleaning supplies and equipment?
Yes. Every visit includes commercial-grade vacuums, microfibre colour-coded by room, mops and eco-certified products at no extra charge. If you’d rather we use your products, for a fragrance sensitivity or a delicate stone counter, leave them out and note it on your service sheet.
Are your cleaners insured, bonded and background-checked?
All three. Before anyone joins a crew they pass a criminal background check and reference verification, then work alongside a senior cleaner during supervised training. The company carries full commercial liability insurance and bonding, so if something is damaged you’re covered. You’re never asked to claim on your own home insurance.
Do I have to be home while you clean?
Most recurring clients aren’t. About seven in ten give us a key, a lockbox code or building access instructions. Access details are stored in an encrypted system, keys are tagged by number rather than address, and only the assigned crew can sign one out.
What happens if I’m not happy with the result?
Tell us within 24 hours and we return to re-clean the area at no cost. No debate, no partial credit, no fine print. It’s requested on fewer than 2% of visits, because a supervisor checks the work before the crew leaves.
Can I keep the same cleaner every time?
Yes, and we encourage it. Recurring clients are matched with a dedicated cleaner or two-person crew who learn your home: which floors hate water, where the spare vacuum bags live, which room your toddler naps in.
How quickly can you start?
Same-week appointments are usually available, and we keep a few next-day slots for urgent move-outs and real-estate showings. Weekly and bi-weekly schedules are typically confirmed within 48 hours of your quote.
Do you offer a discount for recurring cleaning?
Yes. Weekly service is about 20% below a one-time visit, bi-weekly about 12% and monthly about 5%. A maintained home takes less time to clean, and we pass that saving back to you.
Which areas of Montreal do you serve?
Every borough of the city of Montreal, from Ville-Marie and the Plateau to Ahuntsic, Saint-Laurent and LaSalle, plus Westmount, the West Island, Laval, Longueuil and Brossard. Dedicated teams also cover Quebec City and Ottawa-Gatineau. Outside these areas, call 1-833-800-3330: we often travel for recurring contracts.
What are your opening hours?
We are open 7 days a week, from 8 AM to 8 PM, weekends included. Evening and weekend slots are available for homes, and commercial cleaning is scheduled outside your business hours.
How can I pay for my cleaning?
Cash, credit card, debit or Interac e-transfer. You receive an invoice for every visit, which businesses and landlords can use for their accounting.
Ready for a spotless home or office?
Call 1-833-800-3330 or request your free written quote online. Same-week appointments are usually available, and your first visit carries the same 100% satisfaction guarantee as every one after it.
No contract. All supplies included. Re-clean guarantee within 24 h.
