What’s included in a move-out clean?
Every room gets a detail pass, not a surface tidy: inside the oven and fridge, cabinet interiors, the range hood filter, bathroom grout and silicone, window tracks and sills, baseboards, door frames, blind slats and light fixtures. It’s built around what landlords actually inspect.
Do you clean inside the oven and fridge?
Yes, both are standard. Oven interior and racks, the range hood filter, and the fridge shelves, seals and drip tray are all included. Appliance interiors are one of the most common cleaning deductions on a walk-through, so they’re never treated as an extra.
What does the 72-hour re-clean guarantee cover?
If your landlord flags something we cleaned, show us the inspection note within 72 hours and we come back and fix it at no charge. It covers cleaning only. Nail holes, carpet burns and cracked tile are damage, and no clean makes those go away.
Should I book the clean before or after I move out?
After the truck leaves. An empty unit cleans faster and nothing gets re-dirtied carrying boxes through it. Leave at least a day between the clean and your walk-through so the 72-hour re-clean is still usable if your landlord flags something.
Will a move-out clean get my damage deposit back?
Cleaning is the part we control, and we back it with the 72-hour re-clean. The deposit decision is your landlord’s, and it also covers damage and unpaid rent. What we promise is this: if cleaning gets flagged, we come back and fix it free.
Are you insured, and can you prove it?
Yes. Proof of insurance and WCB clearance are on file and available before we start. The crew carries fall protection, CSTS, first aid and WHMIS tickets. Ask and we’ll send the documents over, which some property managers want on record before access.
How do I get a move-out cleaning quote?
Call 403-399-4050 or email info@clearbasecleaning.com with the unit size, your lease-end date and anything unusual, like heavy oven grease or a finished basement. Reach us before 5pm on a business day and you’ll have a written quote back the same day.
Do you clean carpets as part of a move-out clean?
No. Clear Base does not do carpet steam cleaning or extraction, and we do not arrange it through a subcontractor. Many Calgary leases ask for a carpet cleaning receipt, so book a carpet specialist separately. We vacuum carpets thoroughly as part of every move-out clean.
