Standard Cleaning vs. Deep Cleaning: What’s the Difference?

Standard cleaning is maintenance
Standard Cleaning covers the routine work: kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas get dusted, wiped, vacuumed and mopped. It’s designed for a home that’s already in decent shape.
Deep cleaning is a reset
Deep Cleaning includes that routine work plus detail areas such as baseboards, light switches, fans and windowsills. It suits a first professional visit, a seasonal refresh or a home that’s overdue for attention.
How to choose
If your home feels maintained and you want to keep it that way, start with Standard Cleaning. If it’s been a while, or routine cleaning no longer feels like enough, a Deep Cleaning first is a sensible reset. Many people then move to recurring visits.

Common questions
Can I switch from one to the other?
Yes. You can request Standard or Deep Cleaning based on your home’s current needs. If you’ve already booked, contact our team to discuss availability and any pricing adjustments. See the Cleaning Checklist.
Which should I book first?
If your home needs extra attention or hasn’t had a thorough cleaning recently, we recommend starting with Deep Cleaning. Standard Cleaning is a good choice for routine upkeep once the home is well maintained. Compare both in the Cleaning Checklist.
