Holiday-Ready Homes: What a Professional Deep Clean Includes This Season

The holiday season brings guests, gatherings, and winter mess—think road salt, slush, and extra cooking. A professional deep clean in November sets your home up for a safe, sparkling, and stress-free December. At The Broom & Rag Co., our insured, bonded, and carefully vetted team—led on-site by our founder, Monti—delivers white-glove cleaning services tailored to Southern Ontario homes and condos, including Mississauga, Oakville, Halton Hills, Burlington, Milton, and nearby communities.


What does a professional deep clean include?


A deep clean goes beyond routine maintenance to remove built-up grime, bacteria, and dust in hard-to-reach areas. Our detail-focused process includes:


Kitchen cleaning and appliance deep cleaning: degreasing range hoods, scrubbing ovens and stovetops, cleaning inside fridges, sanitizing handles, and polishing stainless steel.

Bathroom cleaning and descaling: grout and tile scrubbing, mold and mildew treatment, limescale removal on glass and fixtures, and full sanitization of high-touch points.

High/low dusting and touch-ups: ceiling fans, vents, light fixtures, baseboards, doors and trim cleaning, switch plates, and door hardware.

Floors and fabrics: HEPA vacuuming under furniture, edge vacuuming, mopping with salt-safe methods, spot-treating carpet stains, and dusting blinds.

Living areas and bedrooms: detailed surface cleaning, organizing light clutter, wiping skirting boards, and refreshing high-traffic areas to improve indoor air quality.


Our Southern Ontario deep cleaning approach


Every property is different—condo cleaning needs in Mississauga aren’t identical to a family home in Oakville. We start with a quick walk-through to prioritize rooms (kitchen, bath, guest areas) and tailor our checklist. We use eco-friendly, non-toxic products that are safe for families and pets and apply HEPA filtration to reduce allergens. Monti’s hands-on leadership ensures consistency, clear communication, and a tidy finish that reflects The Broom & Rag Co.’s professional standards.


How long does a deep cleaning take—and when should you book?


Time varies by size and current condition. A one-bedroom condo often takes 3–4 hours; a larger detached home may take 5–8 hours with two technicians. Post-renovation or heavy-use kitchens and bathrooms can add time for detailed buildup removal. For holiday hosting, book your deep cleaning 2–3 weeks before Christmas, followed by a lighter house cleaning a few days before your event. Condo and apartment cleaning clients often schedule a deep clean in November and a maintenance visit mid-December.


Holiday-specific details that make a big difference


Seasonal entertaining puts pressure on high-visibility areas and details. We focus on:


  • Entryways and floors: removing salt stains, protecting finishes, and preventing grit from scratching hardwood.
  • Guest bathrooms: extra sanitization, odor control, and spotless mirrors and fixtures.
  • Kitchen readiness: degreased appliances, organized fridge shelves, and sanitized prep surfaces to support safe holiday cooking.
  • Baseboards, doors, and trim: erasing scuffs and fingerprints for a polished, photo-ready look.


Health and comfort benefits during cold and flu season


Deep cleaning reduces allergens, dust, and bacteria that accumulate as windows stay closed. Sanitizing high-touch points—door handles, railings, switches—helps limit germ spread during gatherings. Thorough bathroom cleaning, mold prevention, and proper ventilation support a healthier indoor environment, while eco-friendly products avoid harsh chemical odors that can irritate guests.


Simple prep tips before your appointment


  • Clear counters and sinks where possible to maximize detailing time.
  • Put away personal items and valuables; we focus on cleaning, not sorting.
  • Note priority areas (e.g., oven, shower glass, baseboards) for the team lead.
  • For condos, confirm elevator bookings or service bay access with the building.
  • Secure pets comfortably away from active cleaning areas.
