Local tips for Alberta
- Alberta homes in our records are larger on average, and basements and laundry rooms come up more often than in other provinces. Count them when you request a quote so the price is right first time.
- Many Alberta homes have hard water, so limescale on taps, shower glass and kettles is common. Descaling is part of every deep and move-out clean.
- Send photos when you request a quote for anything unusual — heavy grease, pet hair, a full basement — so the price is fixed and the crew brings the right kit.
- Leave the power and water on. Crews need hot water and lights, and ovens and fridges are cleaned switched on and emptied.
