Cabbagetown’s houses stand shoulder to shoulder on narrow lots along Metcalfe, Sumach and Winchester streets: grand bay-and-gable semis, Second Empire rows with mansard roofs, and workers’ cottages on tiny streets such as Alpha Avenue and Wellesley Cottages. Front gardens spill over iron fences in summer, and daily life runs on foot, from the shops on Parliament Street to the trails of the Don Valley.
Houses restored with this much care deserve to be kept the same way. Book online, choose your time, and a vetted cleaner arrives with professional products and equipment. Regular visits keep the rooms you live in most in good order, a deep clean catches the detail an old interior hides, and when a kitchen or bathroom project wraps up, a post-renovation clean clears the dust before you move back in. You see the price upfront, worked out from your home and the clean you pick.

Cabbagetown is known for its preserved Victorian houses, and its streets show why: bay-and-gable semis, rows with mansard roofs and small cottages, all close together on narrow lots. Many have been restored with care, keeping plaster mouldings, pine floors and stained glass while modernizing kitchens and bathrooms.
Victorian interiors are full of ledges: carved mantels, stair spindles, deep sills and panelled doors. Your cleaner dusts them within reach on each visit, and a deep clean once or twice a year covers them all thoroughly, along with the vents and baseboards.
Most Cabbagetown houses have a small front garden and no driveway, so parking is on the street. Let us know any parking tips for your block, which door to use and where the key or lockbox is, in your booking notes.
The workers' cottages on the smallest streets have only a few rooms, often under a steep roof. A regular clean keeps a cottage fresh without fuss, and a move-in clean readies one for a new owner before the boxes come in.

The cleaners who came did a great job and were extremely diligent and thorough. Very good attention to detail which I really appreciated.
They thoroughly cleaned the basement after our tenant moved out, including the walls, windows, bathroom, and fridge. … If you need a reliable cleaning service, I would highly recommend Toronto Shine Cleaning.
This is my third time using their services and I’m constantly impressed how well they clean and organize my house!!

Leave us a reviewRegular cleaning
From a two-bedroom cottage to a three-storey semi, regular cleaning covers what daily life wears down: floors vacuumed and mopped, counters and appliance fronts wiped, the bathroom scrubbed, beds made and small things put straight. Weekly or bi-weekly visits, with no contract to sign, keep an older house feeling looked after, and you can save up to 15% with a recurring plan.
More about regular house cleaningDeep cleaning
Victorian interiors are full of ledges: panelled doors, moulded trim, deep window sills and door frames that gather a fine grey line of dust. A deep clean takes them room by room, adds the vents, range hood and backsplash, and gives the tub a thorough scrub. It makes a strong first visit, and regular visits hold the result.
More about deep cleaningMove-in/out cleaning
A house that has just changed hands deserves a clean start. Before the boxes arrive, a move-in clean goes through the empty rooms: baseboards, vents, fans, door frames and fixtures, bathrooms top to bottom and a kitchen ready for your first meal. Add the inside of the cabinets, fridge and oven when you book, and your price appears before you confirm.
More about move-in and move-out cleaningPost-construction cleaning
Heritage rules focus on what the street sees, so much of the change in Cabbagetown happens indoors: new kitchens, opened-up main floors, restored plaster. Each leaves a fine dust that keeps settling for days. A post-renovation clean lifts it from cabinets, trim, switch plates, vents and floors, along with paint flecks and tape residue, so the house finally feels finished.
