Ontario's Residential Tenancies Act requires rental units to be "clean and in good condition" at move-out. But what does that actually mean for your deposit?
I run Pro Cleaning Pros and have handled hundreds of move-out inspections. Here's the honest breakdown for each GTA city.
What Landlords Actually Check
- Floors - Not just vacuumed, but under furniture and grout
- Kitchen appliances - Inside fridge, oven, dishwasher
- Baseboards & corners - Dust collects here

Most tenants spend 4-6 hours and lose $200-400 to deductions. Professional cleaning costs $210-240 and takes 3 hours. You pass inspection and keep your deposit.
