House Cleaning in The Annex

The Annex is one of Toronto’s most architecturally distinctive neighbourhoods, known for its grand Victorian and Edwardian homes on mature, tree-lined streets. Many retain original detailing — hardwood, plaster, leaded glass and intricate trim — and some have been divided into apartments over the years. Clean Proper cleans them all with the care those features deserve, tailoring each visit to the home rather than to a standard package.

Older homes like these reward a thoughtful, unhurried approach. Many Annex households choose a regular weekly or bi-weekly clean to keep a larger, detailed home in order, paired with a deeper seasonal reset for the rooms everyday upkeep doesn’t reach. We plan enough time for the size and quirks of your home, so nothing is rushed and every space gets the same attention.

The Annex’s grand three- and four-storey homes were built for a different era, and they come with the features to match — tall staircases, deep crown mouldings, ornate radiators, stained glass and original hardwood that all gather dust in ways a modern home never does. Cleaning them properly takes patience and the right products, not brute force, and our gentle, non-toxic approach is well suited to looking after those period surfaces. The neighbourhood’s character also means a mix of households: a single family in a restored Victorian one door down from a home divided into apartments, or a professor’s house near the university campus. We tailor the visit to whichever it is, with the same careful hand throughout.

What our Annex clients value most is reliability. You’re matched with the same trusted cleaner each visit, so they come to know your home’s layout, its original features and your preferences, and the clean grows more tailored over time. In homes with valued character details, that familiar, dependable presence is worth a great deal — far more so than the rotating crews many city services send.

Care for the home and your family’s health go hand in hand. We use eco-certified, non-toxic, family- and pet-safe products, which lifts dust and allergens out of the home and is gentle on original wood, plaster and tile. For households with young children, pets or allergies, that’s a meaningful benefit. As a proudly Ukrainian-owned residential company that’s fully $2M insured, we take being trusted in your home seriously.

Whether you’d like a steady schedule to keep a century home immaculate, a deep clean for a special occasion, or a move clean as you buy or sell in the area, we’ll tailor the service to your home. Request a quote and we’ll get back to you quickly with a no-obligation price.
