At the end of a lease in Scarborough, the final walkthrough can quickly turn into a heated dispute. While landlords cannot charge for “reasonable wear and tear” under Ontario regulations, they are fully entitled to charge for professional cleaning if the unit is returned in a state of undue dirtiness.
To protect yourself, you need to know exactly where tenants fail the most.
The Top 5 Move-Out Cleaning Failures:
- The Oven Cavity: Leaving burnt carbon at the bottom of the oven is an instant failure.
- Window Tracks & Sills: Dead bugs, heavy dust, and mold in the window tracks are major red flags.
- Inside Cabinetry: Crumbs left inside kitchen drawers or sticky residue on pantry shelves.
- Baseboard Grime: The thick layer of settled dust on baseboards that requires wet-wiping, not just sweeping.
- Bathtub Soap Scum: Leaving a dull, textured ring of soap scum around the tub basin.
Our Move-Out Specialists tackle these exact pain points, providing you with a detailed invoice to prove to your landlord that the property was professionally reset.
