Standard Cleaning vs Deep Cleaning: Which Do You Need?

A Standard Clean maintains a home that is already in reasonable shape. A Deep Clean is a more detailed reset for built-up dust, soap residue, floor edges, trim and other areas that are not part of every maintenance visit.

• Kitchen counters, backsplash, sink, appliance exteriors and floors.
• Bathroom toilet, shower or tub, glass, sink, counter, mirrors and floors.
• Reachable bedroom and living-area surfaces, beds when fresh linens are left out, carpets and hard floors.
• Hallway, entry, handles, switches and bins.

It is a practical choice for weekly, bi-weekly or monthly maintenance. The goal is to keep the areas used every day under control without adding every detailed task to every visit.

• More detailed attention to baseboards, trim, door frames and accessible floor edges.
• Bathroom grout, soap build-up, shower glass and fixtures.
• Reachable light fixtures, blinds, window sills and tracks.
• Kitchen range hood, reachable cabinet tops and detailed appliance exteriors.

Deep Cleaning does not automatically mean every enclosed space is emptied and cleaned. Inside the oven or fridge is selected as an add-on, while inside cupboards, drawers and closets belongs to an empty Move-In / Move-Out Clean when those spaces are emptied.
