What is Steam Cleaning?
My passion for cleaning, years of experience in the field, and training with cleaning chemicals led me to open my own steam cleaning company.
Cleaning chemicals often require a dwell time – the time they need to sit on a surface – to effectively kill bacteria and viruses. Depending on the product, this can range from 1 minute to several minutes, which can add time and uncertainty to the cleaning process.
Steam cleaning, used since the 1970s and increasingly popular in Canada since the COVID-19 pandemic, offers a more immediate solution.
Steam cleaning uses high-temperature steam to break down dirt, grease, and grime while also sanitizing surfaces without the need for harsh chemicals. The process involves heating water to produce steam, which is then applied through a nozzle or brush attachment. The heat loosens dirt and kills bacteria, viruses, mold, and dust mites ON CONTACT!
The moisture from the steam lifts contaminants from surfaces, allowing them to be wiped away easily. Since steam evaporates quickly, it leaves surfaces dry within minutes, making it ideal for deep cleaning carpets, upholstery, tile grout, and hard-to-reach areas.
This eco-friendly cleaning method is safe for homes, businesses, and even sensitive environments like hospitals, offering a powerful alternative to traditional cleaning solutions.
This makes it the preferred chemical-free, scent-free cleaning, green cleaning solution, with the added benefit of thorough, time-efficient sanitization.

My Story
Initially my company started as an Airbnb cleaning service. However, as I became more involved in the industry, I began to hear disturbing stories about the mistreatment of our elders and those who need us most.
Motivated to make a difference, I joined a program that connected me with others facing challenges related to mental illness and disabilities—challenges I have experienced myself.
This journey inspired me to rebrand my services, focusing on providing tailored home cleaning solutions for seniors and individuals with disabilities.
My goal is to offer a safe, clean, and comfortable home for those in need, all at a fraction of the cost charged by leading cleaning companies.
With over 30 years of experience in residential, commercial, vacation rentals, and janitorial, I am here to help.
