We often get asked…what’s the difference between regular cleaning and deep cleaning?

Regular cleaning is what most people do on a regular basis e.g weekly vs a deep clean which is every 6 months to a year.

It’s often to maintain a level of cleanliness around the house. Regular cleaning often covers things like:

✅ hoovering and mopping the floors

✅ cleaning bathrooms – sink, mirror, bath and toilet

✅ Tidying up

✅ cleaning the kitchen – wiping down work surfaces, cupboard doors, hob etc

Deep cleaning is very different and is often a requirement before a tenant moves in or out.

Deep cleaning is different from regular cleaning because it reaches the deep grime and dirt in your home.

It covers areas which aren’t traditionally covered by a regular clean for example:

✅ under the sink

✅ inside the oven including the oven door glass

✅ inside of window frames and patio doors

✅ inside of all windows

✅ washing all blinds

✅ full and deep dusting including all the all the corners of rooms for cobwebs

✅ scale removal from all bathroom tiles, kitchen tiles, taps, shower heads etc

For Example:

Lets take the bathroom as an example. As well as covering what a regular clean would, deep cleaning the bathroom means cleaning the inside and tops of the cupboards, including the medicine cabinet, underneath and behind the sink and toilet and using professional limescale remover to remove all built up scale from all taps, tiles and the shower head.

This is of course reflected in the time it takes to carry out the clean. Most regular cleaning is done for 2-3 hours a week. A deep clean of a three bedroom house can take a cleaning team of 3 up to 12 (wo)man hours (average condition).
