The short answer

The cost of a home clean depends on the service, bedrooms, bathrooms, approximate home size and any add-ons. TidyNest calculates these details before you choose a date, then shows the subtotal, 14% HST and exact total before booking.

What changes the price?

  • Service type: Standard, Deep, Move-In / Move-Out or Recurring Cleaning.
  • Number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
  • Approximate home size, because a larger floor area usually takes longer.
  • Optional add-ons such as inside the oven, inside the emptied fridge, interior windows or extra pet-hair attention.
  • Recurring frequency after the first visit: weekly, bi-weekly or monthly discounts begin with visit two.

TidyNest uses the same pricing calculator on the booking summary and when the booking is created. That means the price is based on the choices you make, not a sales call or an estimate that changes after you enter your details.

Standard and deep-clean examples

For the same two-bedroom, one-bathroom example, the current Deep Clean calculation is $260.00 before HST and $296.40 including HST. Deep Cleaning costs more because the checklist adds detailed work such as baseboards, grout, trim and other reachable surfaces that a maintenance clean does not cover.

Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning is designed for an empty home and includes emptied enclosed spaces and appliance interiors. Because the scope is different, it has its own calculation rather than being treated as a Standard Clean with a few extras.

How HST and payment work

The summary calculates HST at 14% of the subtotal and shows cents rather than rounding the final tax. Your saved card is not charged when you book. It is charged after the clean is completed.
