What's included in a deep clean, and when do you need one?
A deep clean is a top-to-bottom reset of the home. It covers everything in a regular clean plus the detail that builds up over time: skirting boards, doors and frames, light switches, inside cupboards, the oven, rangehood, grout, window tracks and built-up grime in kitchens and bathrooms. Most homes need one before starting regular cleans, after renovations or a long break, or once or twice a year.
What a deep clean covers
- Everything in a regular clean: kitchen, bathrooms, floors, dusting and bins
- Skirting boards, doors, door frames and light switches
- Kitchen detail: cupboard fronts, splashback, rangehood and stovetop
- Oven, and inside the fridge and cupboards on request
- Bathroom detail: grout, glass screens, built-up soap scum and fixtures
- Window sills and tracks
- Cobwebs, vents and high dusting
- Under and behind furniture we can safely move
When a deep clean makes sense
- Before you start regular cleaning, so each visit after that stays quick
- After renovations, building work or a long time away
- Before guests, a sale, or a special occasion
- Moving into a new home
- Once or twice a year, even if you have regular cleans
How to get the most out of it

Questions people ask
How long does a deep clean take?
It depends on the size and condition of the home. A deep clean usually takes two to three times as long as a regular clean of the same home.
Is a deep clean the same as an end of lease clean?
They're close. An end of lease clean is a deep clean done to the standard agents check against the ingoing inspection report, with extras such as walls and wardrobes.
Do I need to be home?
No. Many customers leave a key or lockbox code. We'll let you know when we're done.
