The short answer

Most Calgary house cleaners charge between $35 and $50 per hour per cleaner. Where you land in that range depends on the type of clean, the size and condition of your home, and how often you book. Recurring cleans are cheapest per visit. Deep cleans and move-out cleans cost more because they take longer and reach more.

Typical Calgary pricing by service

Standard / Recurring

$40/hr

2.5 hour minimum

Deep Clean

$45/hr

3 hour minimum

Move-In / Out

$50/hr

4 hour minimum

As a rough guide, a standard clean of an average Calgary home runs $100 to $160, a deep clean $150 to $300, and a full move-out clean $200 to $400, depending on size and condition.

What changes the price

Size of the home

More square footage and more bathrooms mean more time. Bathrooms and kitchens are the most time-intensive rooms in any house.

Condition and how long since the last clean

A home cleaned every two weeks takes a fraction of the time of one that has not been deep cleaned in a year. This is why recurring clients pay less per visit.

Type of clean

A standard tidy is quick. A deep clean reaches baseboards, inside appliances and build-up, so it costs more. A move-out clean is the most detailed of all.

Add-ons

Inside the oven, inside the fridge, interior windows and wall washing are usually quoted on top of the base clean.

Hourly or flat rate?

Some companies quote a flat fee. It feels simple, but it is usually padded to protect the company on a bad day, so on a normal day you overpay. An honest hourly rate with a fair minimum means you only pay for the time your home actually needs. That is how Luxora prices every clean.

Most Calgary cleaners charge $35 to $50 per hour. Standard recurring cleans sit at the lower end, while deep cleans and move-out cleans cost more because they take longer and cover more detail.

Hourly is usually fairer for the homeowner because you only pay for the time your home actually needs, with no padded flat fee. A clear minimum protects the cleaner's time.
