Our Journey
Lautus Cleaning was founded in Toronto with one clear mission: to bring professionalism, reliability, and refinement to the cleaning industry. Inspired by the Latin word “Lautus,” meaning clean, elegant, and refined, our name reflects the standards we live by.
We started with a simple belief, clean spaces create better communities.
Property managers and business owners need more than just cleaners; they need a partner who understands the demands of managing large condominiums and commercial spaces.
What began as a local vision in the GTA is now growing into a premium cleaning brand designed to scale across Ontario and beyond.
Our unique approach combines:
Eco-friendly products that protect residents, staff, and the environment.
Trained and insured professionals who take pride in their work.
Transparent reporting systems that give managers peace of mind.
A scalable model ready for long-term partnerships and franchise expansion.
This is more than a cleaning company, it’s a journey to redefine what professional cleaning should look like.
