Standard Clean vs Deep Clean: Which One Do You Need?
It is the most common question we get when someone books for the first time. The short answer: if it has been more than a month or two since a real top-to-bottom clean, start with a deep clean.
What a standard clean covers
A standard clean is the routine reset: kitchen counters and surfaces, bathrooms, dusting, floors vacuumed and mopped, trash out. It keeps a home that is already in good shape looking that way.
What a deep clean adds
- Baseboards, door frames and light switches
- Build-up in showers, tubs and around faucets
- Behind and under the things a routine clean works around
- The detail work that piles up over months
When to book a deep clean
- Your first clean with us
- Before guests come for the holidays
- Spring cleaning, or after a long stretch of busy months
- Before or after a move
The smart way to do it
Start with one deep clean to get everything caught up, then switch to weekly or every-other-week standard cleans. The house stays at that level and each visit costs less.
