Keeping Oakville Clean and Tidy From Top to Bottom, Left to Right
Oakville, ON, Canada – January 19, 2025 – With an enterprising spirit, a dedicated team and a uniquely refined cleaning system, Oakville Maids is the clear winner with customers.
Every once in a while, a company comes along to challenge the status quo and shake up an industry. Around here, that company is Oakville Maids.
Under the direction of Chief Cleanliness Officer Greg Shepard, Oakville Maids is a company guided by a clean-cut vision: to make every customer’s home feel like a haven.
To make that happen, Shepard focuses on hiring people who work hard and have heart. Those associates complete a stringent five-step training system to become highly skilled “happiness engineers” who use the company’s unique cleaning system to create sanctuaries for their customers.
This model, says Shepard, is what sets Oakville Maids apart from the competition. “We’ve spent over two decades refining our award-winning cleaning systems, so customers know exactly what to expect every time. No shortcuts. No surprises,” he says. “We also invest heavily in our team, because happy, well-trained cleaners deliver better results. Combined with transparent pricing, responsive communication, and deep roots in the Oakville community, that consistency is what keeps clients coming back.”
The result is a cleaning company that earns consistently high customer ratings and was named Best Cleaning Service in the 2025 Oakville News Reader Favourite Awards. This recognition holds significant meaning because it comes from the community they serve, rather than the industry. “This isn’t something decided by judges or panels, it’s voted on by locals of Oakville who trust us in their homes, and to provide an amazing cleaning service,” Greg explains. “For our professional home cleaners, it validates the care, consistency, and pride they bring to every clean. For our cleaning company, it reinforces that quality, reliability, and treating clients and staff well is what truly matters in the long run.”
Oakville Maids offers a range of cleaning services, from standard house and apartment cleaning to deep and move-out cleanings. In all cases, the team follows a unique system that combines proven practices including the ‘top to bottom, left to right’ method. “The logic is simple: cleaning from top to bottom prevents dust or debris from falling onto areas that have already been cleaned. Moving left to right creates a natural, systematic flow so nothing gets missed or duplicated.” Over the years, Shepard has incorporated this method with other industry methods to create a unique system that delivers consistent results for their customers. “We focus on efficiency, effectiveness, and repeatability rather than reinventing the wheel.”
Understanding the unique needs of each customer makes Oakville Maids the preferred choice of local families who often request eco-friendly options. “This is something I’ve paid attention to since starting my first home cleaning business back in 2004,” says Greg. “Green cleaning was one of the first things I looked into. Eco-friendly products have improved since then and clean very effectively. At my largest house cleaning service, we use mostly green products and have seen excellent results.”
This flexibility to adapt to customer requests, combined with their competitive and transparent pricing model, earns rave reviews from home owners and commercial clients like local realtor Eugénie Eckler. “I recently hired Oakville Maids for a post-sale clean to prepare a property for its new owners, and I’m beyond impressed. From start to finish, their team was thorough, professional, and attentive to every detail. They covered everything, from carpets and windows to bathrooms, leaving the entire home spotless and move-in ready. As a realtor, I’ve worked with many cleaning services, but Oakville Maids truly stands out for their reliability and exceptional standards.”
Giving back to the community that has supported Oakville Maids is important to Greg and his team. For this reason, the company proudly partners with Cleaning for a Reason. “It is a nonprofit that provides free home cleaning services to individuals in Oakville who are undergoing cancer treatment. During times like that, even small acts of help can make a meaningful difference, and we are honored to be able to support families when they need it most.”
Being part of the fabric of Oakville, and specifically being welcomed into a client’s home, is something the team never takes for granted. “We are deeply grateful to be part of the Oakville community and look forward to continuing to serve you with the same care and dedication you’ve come to expect. To everyone who took the time to vote for us, thank you. Your support means more to us than we can express.”
